In this study some selected chemical properties such as total soluble solids, pH, total acidity, formalin index, reduced sugar content and ascorbic acid of major sour cherry cultivated grown in different provinces of Iran corresponding were investigated.  Minerals K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ were determine...

1. In six volunteers, the effect of intragastric administration of different water-soluble chemical isolates of dietary fibre on gastric secretion, acidity and emptying was studied. 2. At 30 min after administration of the test meals, the stomach contents were completely aspirated and the volume, pH, phenol red concentration, total titratable acidity and different electrolytes were measured. 3....

BACKGROUND High consumption of nonalcoholic beverages is one of the causes of dental erosion. Annual consumption of beverages in Iran is 48 LPCY (Lit per capita per year) that is equal to 144 bottles per capita in year and is relatively a high rate. Taking this into consideration, the present study was planned to determine the pH and fluoride content of beverages consumed in Kerman, south east ...

Studies were carried out by the grapevine berries sprayed with copper hydroxide (Kocide 3000) to assess its quality in terms of reducing sugars, non reducing sugars, total sugars and acidity. The total, reducing and non reducing sugars were higher in the grapevine berries sprayed with Copper hydroxide comparing with that of control plots. Fruit quality was improved in Copper hydroxide (Kocide 3...

Palm sap tapped from three varieties of date palm Phoenix dactylifera was analyzed during two tapping periods: winter and springtime. These samples were collected once-a-week during 14 weeks for each tapping period. Total soluble solids decreased during tapping period; however no significant variation was noted for pH and titrable acidity. The microbial count indicated that after an initial hig...

Native population of raspberry fruits (Rubus spp) were treated with Methyl Jasmonate (MJ) fumigation and were assayed for the antioxidant capacity, total anthocyanins and postharvest quality after 7 days storage at 4?C. The result of experiment revealed that berries treated with methyl jasmonate (MJ) showed higher antioxidant capacity and total anthocyanins compared to the controled ones (non...

In this study some selected chemical properties such as total soluble solids, pH, total acidity, formalin index,  reduced sugar content and ascorbic acid of major sour cherry cultivated grown in different provinces of Iran corresponding were investigated.  Minerals K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The result showed...

The role of Helicobacter pylori infection in the development of iron deficiency anaemia has been the focus of attention over the past decade. However, confirmation of a relationship has not confirmed the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the phenomenon. The aim of the present work is to study the levels of fasting gastric acidity (free and total) as well as the level of tumour necrosis ...
