wood vinegar is the aqueous phase of the liquid produced during the slow pyrolysis of wood.it has the potential to be used as a pesticide against various weeds, insects and molluscs. due to divergentfeedstocks, pyrolysis processes and storing conditions, the chemical composition of wood vinegar variesbetween producers and time. the aim of our current study was to use the copse snail arianta arb...

The nutritive value of Ceratonia siliqua and Gleditsia triacanthos pods was determined on the basis of their chemical composition, in vitro gas production and rumen fermentation end-products. Medicago sativa was used as a reference feed material. The studied samples showed differences in chemical composition and phenolic compounds. Crude protein (CP) content was particulary low (80 g/kg DM) in ...

the aim of this study was investigating the effect of gamma irradiation and naoh treatment of some agricultural by products (tomato pulp, orange pulp, pistachio hull and wheat straw) on fermentation parameters and gas production test. treatments of gamma irradiation (50, 100 and 200 kgy) and %5 naoh was done on each source of by products. the results showed that gamma irradiation at the dose of...

background: in recent years, natural products, especially natural antioxidants, play an important role in various fields. in fact, lippia citriodora is one of the medicinal plants which is cultivated in iran and it may be has potential antioxidant activity. objective: the chemical composition of lippia citriodora essential oil (lceo) has been determined. the total phenolic content and antioxida...

Objectives: Almond (Prunus amygdalus) hull and shell are agricultural by-products that are a source of phenolic compounds.The processing of almond produce shell and hull, accounts for more than 50% by dry weight of the almond fruits. Recently, more studies have focused on the influence of storage conditions and postharvest handling on the nutritional quality of fruits, especially the antioxidan...

in this experiment, physical and chemical characteristics and estimation of effective fiber and digestibility of some agricultural by-products such as lerd, pulp and date kernel, grape pomace, pistachio hulls, lime and rice straw were determined by using in vitro technique. experimental data were analyzed as a complete randomized design, with three replicates. physical and chemical characterist...

In the paper, technology of melanin and powder from buckwheat ( Fagopyrum esculentum ) hull obtaining is studied. Buckwheat a by-product grain production has high antioxidant activity. It cheap source for raw material with content cellulose brown pigment. Russia, strategical crop used in child dietary nutrition. hulls, which volume about 22% total processed grain, are practically not used. At s...

date syrup, date concentrate and date liquid sugar are among the products which are produced from low quality dates in date processing plants. the aim of this research was to investigate chemical characteristics and sensory properties of date syrup, date concentrate and date liquid sugar in comparison with sugar (sucrose) solutions and evaluate possible substitution of sucrose with these date b...
