The relationship between carotenoid accumulation and the expression of carotenoid biosynthetic genes during fruit maturation was investigated in three citrus varieties, Satsuma mandarin (Citrus unshiu Marc.), Valencia orange (Citrus sinensis Osbeck), and Lisbon lemon (Citrus limon Burm.f.). We cloned the cDNAs for phytoene synthase (CitPSY), phytoene desaturase (CitPDS), zeta-carotene (car) des...

Indonesians still do relatively little to prepare and consume veggies. Products made from vegetable raw materials that have the potential be developed is a jam. Making jam with combination of several types vegetables can make flavor less favorable. So, efforts are required add mandarin orange peel extract, which includes essential oils possibly intense limonene components as taste, up for defic...

Volatile profiles yielded from gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis provide abundant information not only for metabolism-related research, but also for chemotaxonomy. To study the chemotaxonomy of Mangshanyegan, its volatile profiles of fruit and leaf and those of 29 other genotypes of Citrus, Poncirus, and Fortunella were subjected to phylogenetic analyses. Results showed that...

in this study, the possible infection of thomson navel, moro blood sweet orange, page mandarin and webber pomelo with citrus viroids was investigated. biological indexing was performed by grafting on etrog citron (c. medica) and maintained in temperature-controlled greenhouse. after inoculation, rna was extracted by sds– potassium acetate method. detection of citrus viroids was done reverse tra...

The literature data on the use of agricultural waste, mandarin peel (Citrus reticulata) as a sorption material for removal various pollutants, mainly metal and metalloid ions dyes from aqueous media, are summarized. review, based analysis literary sources, provides information volume waste generation processing citrus fruits, including tangerines. Information is given content chemical compounds...

Studies have shown that oxygenated compounds and TSS are important in food products. It seems that cultivars have a profound influence on these factors. The goal of the present study is to investigate on flavor components and juice quality parameters of two mandarin cultivars. In the last week of January 2012, at least 10 mature fruit were collected and their peel oil was extracted using cold-p...

Studies have shown that phenolic compounds are important in human health.The purpose of this research was to examine the influence of rootstocks on phenolic compounds. The content of individual phenolic compounds in fruits was determined by HPLC. Total flavonoids content was measured using colorimetric method. Free radical scavenging activity on stable DPPH radicals was also evaluated. HPLC ana...

Drilling fluid represents the most important that must fulfill numerous assignments during drilling operations. Many commercially available additives for water-based fall into category of non-degradable and environmentally hazardous materials. Significant development in this area can be made by using biodegradable materials as fluids. The objective study was to determine whether mandarin peel p...
