the effect of addition of qodumeh shahri (lepidium perfoliatum) seed gum on the emulsion properties were investigated in this study. l. perfoliatum seed gum with 0-0.6% (w/w) concentration was used together with 2% (w/w) wpc to emulsify 20% (w/w) corn oil. the emulsion was analyzed for emulsion stability, particle size, specific surface area, particle size distribution and rheological propertie...

the mating disruption technique has been widely used for the control of several lepidopteran pests. in the present study, we assessed the efficiency of two formulations of splat neo, a wax emulsion containing e-11-hexadecenol, with and without the insecticide cypermethrin, in affecting mating disruption of neoleucinodes elegantalis (guenée). we also determined the best phenological age or stage...

Fruit ripening is one of the developmental processes accompanying seed development. The tomato is a well-known model for studying fruit ripening and development, and the disassembly of primary cell walls and the middle lamella, such as through pectin de-methylesterified by pectin methylesterase (PE) and depolymerization by polygalacturonase (PG), is generally accepted to be one of the major cha...

The potential of the method fluorescence spectroscopy for detection damage and diseases fruits vegetables was studied. For this purpose, spectra healthy rotten apples potatoes have been investigated. Excitation samples carried out using a continuous semiconductor laser with wavelength 405 nm pulsed solid-state 527 nm. Peaks in region 600–700 were shifted towards shorter wavelengths most both mo...

armillaria root and crown rot is an important disease of woody plants including fruit, forest and ornamental trees in different regions. the disease is common in isfahan and causes economical losses on a broad range of fruit trees. there only a few tolerant varieties to disease, and there is no efficient method in controlling the disease. therefore, detection of the pathogen from soil is necess...
