the physico-chemical characteristics and physiological qualities of palm (phoenix dactylifera) fruit strongly depend on the storage conditions. storage environment and packaging type are the factors most influencing on the quality of dates during their storage. date fruits were packed within an aerobic atmosphere, vacuumed in pa/pe pouches and stored at different temperatures (-20, 4, 25 and 40...

the quantitative performance of wheat crop under 1-5 year old poplar plantations in irrigated agro-ecosystem was studied to ascertain the biological yield of tree and crop. results revealed that growth and yield of wheat decreased significantly with the increase in poplar age. the per cent reduction in net grain yield was 17% under one year old poplar plantation, which increased to 52.15% under...

the effects of different cooking methods (deep fat frying, boiling and steaming) on lipid content and fatty acid composition of grass carp ( ctenopharyngodon idella ) fillets during chill storage were investigated. fillet samples were cooked and then stored at + 4°c for 4 days. the control and the cooked fillet samples were analyzed for their chemical characteristics. twelve fatty acids were id...

irradiation is known to inhibit waste in stored garlic. treatment time and optimum irradiation dosage are two key factors in achieving the least waste in this process. these two factors were investigated on white ecotype bulbs from hamedan, iran that were irradiated after harvest for 30 and 45 days using fast electrons at dosages of 0, 25, 50, 75, 100, and 150 gy. different properties of the ga...

a field investigation was conducted to evaluate the effect of n and k fertilizers on qualitative and quantitative changes of potato tubers during five months of storage. this study was carried out in three replications at five levels (0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kg/ha) of nitrogen and three levels (0, 75 and 150 kg/ha) of potassium fertilizer during 2004-2006. measurements were recorded monthly. th...

the popularity of non-dairy probiotic products continues to persist as the consumers prefer functional foods satisfying their health needs. among these promising foods, probiotic grape drink would have beneficial effects on modifying gastrointestinal flora and human health. in this study, the pasteurized grape drink was inoculated by three species of lactic acid bacteria (lactobacillus delbruec...

Optimal packaging and storage conditions for fresh tilapia fillets were established by evaluating sensory and microbiological changes, as well as monitoring physicochemical properties. Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) farmed in recirculation aquaculture system was filleted, deskinned, and packaged in air and 50% CO2/50% N2 prior to chilling and superchilling storage at 1°C and -1°C. Sensory...

    Different dates for apples fruit harvest (Malus domestica Borkh. Cv. Fuji) were studied to determine physiochemical changes during the storage. Fuji apples were harvested from 9 September till 23 October, at five different times and stored at 0±0.5 °C and 95% relative humidity for 120 days. To determine the best harvest date for maximum quality and storability, physical and chemical paramet...
