Background & Aims: Date syrup is a natural sweetener rich in antioxidants. In addition, fructose is the predominant sugar in date syrup, which elevates blood glucose at a slower pace than the other types of sugar. The objective of this study was to evaluate the glycemic response of healthy persons to dietetic sour cherry jam prepared with date syrup. Methods: In this clinical trial, the glycemi...

as a first step towards mechanization related to any product, including date fruit, it is necessary to have comprehensive information about the product. physical and mechanical properties are needed for the design of post harvest machinery and equipment. the objective of this study was to determine and compare some physical properties such as dimension, mass and volume, particulate density, pit...

The tendency to consume food with lower sugar content and alternatively healthy foods and food products are rising. High levels of sugar in date syrup might be used as a good alternative to sugar in various food products. Iran is one of the main producers of date fruit and it is possible to produce foods with high nutritional values from date to replace high-sugar content food....

developing a rapid, nondestructive and reliable method to measure moisture content of date fruit is of interest in pre- and post-harvest processes of this valuable product. throughout this research, by putting date palm fruits (cv. mazafati) in a parallel plate capacitor, the sinusoidal alternative voltage in the frequency range of 1 to 100 mhz was exerted to the dates and the response of the c...
