BACKGROUND Peanuts and tree nuts frequently cause severe allergic reactions. Nut avoidance is the key treatment, and accurate identification of nuts is essential for successful avoidance. OBJECTIVES To determine the age at which nut-allergic and nonallergic children can accurately identify various nuts and whether nut-allergic children can identify nuts they should avoid. METHODS A "nut box...

the objective of this study was to evaluate different pistachio hullers and determine the proper harvest time of pistachio nuts for hulling. three pistachio hulling machines (helical drum, helical- blade drum, rubber drum) at three harvest times and 15 days interval were evaluated. the hulling efficiency, percentage of damaged nuts, faulty hulled nuts and unhulled nuts were measured at each tim...

pistachio nut is one of the most important export crops in iran. for prevention of rancidity and to ensure good quality, pistachio must be harvested in a short time and be prepared for drying in 24h.the ohadi variety of iranian raw dry pistachio nuts was selected for the experiments. instrumental hardness and sensory characteristics of pistachio nuts such as: flavor , texture and total acceptan...

Pistachio suffers from some physiological disorders such as fruit abscission, endocarp lesion, blankness, non-split, early-split and deformed nuts. In this experiment, the effects of calcium nitrate (2 gr/lit), calcium chloride (2 gr/lit), boric acid (200 ppm) and their combination treatments were investigated on physiological disorders of ‘Kaleh-Ghoochi’ pistachio. Foliar application was appli...

In this paper, the effect of infrared (IR) roasting conditions on Aflatoxins and total counts of two types of Iranian pistachio kernels, long and round, was studied. The optimized roasting conditions, 70 V for round pistachios and 90 V for long pistachios with 10 cm distance from IR source were used. Naturally Aflatoxin-contaminated kernels were supplied and roasted. Microbiological an...

Ecophysiological characteristics of "Ahmadaghaii" "Ohadi" "Kallehghuchi" cultivars (as scions) on four pistachio rootstocks (Pistacia vera Cv. Badami riz, P. vera Cv. Sarakhs, P. atlantica sub sp. Mutica, P. atlantica sub sp. Atlantica) were evaluated during the spring and summer seasons of 2005 in the Iran's Pistachio Research Institute (IPRI).

Nuts are dry, single-seeded fruits, with a combination of beneficial compounds that aid in disease prevention and treatment. This review aims to summarize the antioxidant components nutraceutical properties applications hazelnut, almond, pistachio skins, as well discuss their ability prevent treat specific diseases based on vitro vivo studies. The search strategy included searching PubMed datab...

Due to low consumer acceptance and possibility of having immature kernels, closed-shell pistachio nuts have to be separated from open-shell pistachio nuts. The feasibility of a system using non-contact impact acoustics as a means for classifying closed-shell nuts from open-shell nuts has already been shown with better discrimination performance than a mechanical system. The accuracy of an impac...
