the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of sun-drying, ensiling and addition of polyethylene glycol (peg) on deactivation of tannins in the pistachio by-products hull (pbh). the chemical composition, protein quality and phenolic compounds of fresh pistachio by-products hull, sun-dried and ensiled for either 30 or 60 days were assessed. organic matter digestibility (omd) and met...

the aim of this study was to identify the effect of spermine and salicylic acid on several growth parameters, such as shoot length, shoot fresh and dry weights, amount of protein and carbohydrate, of badami and qazvini pistachio cultivated variety under copper stress. the experiment design was completely randomized with three replicates per treatment and four levels of copper (o.5, 30, 45, 60 µ...

Serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) is the most used and reliable method to determine percentage of serum subfractions. The interpretation kinetics total proteins albumin globulin fractions receiving increased attention in wild animals, as well domestic due possibility identifying typical pathologic patterns. However, these data had be performed light an appropriate method—and species- specific...

the study on the serum protein electrophoresis following thyroidectomy in a puppies showed a significant decrease in the albumin and -a-ratio associated with a relative increase in gamma and total globulin, but alterations of alpha i and beta globulin were not statistically charcteristic in our thyroidectomized dogs.

Protein status of 194 pregnant women and their newborn at a public and a private maternity hospital in Tehran was studied. Blood samples were taken from all women before delivery and from cords at delivery of the placenta. The following determinations were made: total serum protein, protein fractions, creatinine and urea. In the private group, significantly higher maternal mean values were...

Doster, M. A., Cotty, P. J., and Michailides, T. J. 2014. Evaluation of the atoxigenic Aspergillus flavus strain AF36 in pistachio orchards. Plant Dis. 98:948-956. The atoxigenic strain Aspergillus flavus AF36, which has been extensively used as a biocontrol agent in commercial corn and cotton fields to reduce aflatoxin contamination, was applied in research pistachio orchards from 2002 to 2005...

pistachio nut (pistacia vera l.) is one of the popular and nutritious tree nuts in the world. pistachio spread is a new product which is made from pistachio paste, icing sugar, soy protein isolate (spi), and red palm oil (rpo). this study involved sensory acceptability (by 32 assessors) using hedonic scale and development of suitable terminology for describing pistachio spread using quantitativ...

Different methods have been applied to recycle pistachio’s green hulls, the most important of which are siloing and drying pistachio hulls (using industrial dryers). In both methods, hulls should lose their initial moisture content, which constitutes a considerable portion of their weight. The high moisture content takes more time and energy during the drying process. The initial dewateringof h...

In this trial effects of feeding pistachio by-product silage with date waste (PBSD) on dry matter intake (DMI), live weight gain and blood parameters of lambs were studied. Ensiling of pistachio by-products (PBP) with date waste increased dry matter (DM) and metabolizable energy (ME), but decreased the percentages of crude protein (CP), total tannins and phenolic compounds (P

Pistachio as a strategic product has a particular position among Iranian productions and is one of the most important non-oil exports after carpet. In this study, after primary processing such as dehulling, washing, drying and roasting, pistachio nuts were packed in four different atmospheres including N2, CO2, vacuum and ambient air. Storage temperatures were 20 C and 40 C for a 12 month perio...
