native population of raspberry fruits (rubus spp) were treated with methyl jasmonate (mj) fumigation and were assayed for the antioxidant capacity, total anthocyanins and postharvest quality after 7 days storage at 4?c. the result of experiment revealed that berries treated with methyl jasmonate (mj) showed higher antioxidant capacity and total anthocyanins compared to the controled ones (non...

Influence of storage temperature on the shelf life of the pasteurized milk and the enzymatic activity of psychrotrophic bacteria in whole and skimmed pasteurized milk were the main goals of the presented work. It was demonstrated that the storage temperature of 10C reduces the shelf life of pasteurized milk to one third in comparison with a storage at 4 C. The average shelf life of the full cre...

nowadays one of the most important energy sources is natural gas. by depletion of oil reservoirs in the world, natural gasâ will emerge as the future energy source for human life. one of the major concerns of gas suppliers is being able to supply this source of energy the entire year. this concern intensifies during more consuming seasons of the year when the demand for natural gas increases, r...

The effect of delayed icing on the quality of banana shrimp (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis) was investigated by determining sensory, physicochemical (pH, TVB-N and WHC), microbial (TMC, total mesophilic counts and TPC, total psychrophilic counts) and microstructure aspects over 20 days during ice storage. The fresh shrimp stored in the immediately iced after caught (lot I) were organoleptically ac...

Mango is an important fruit crop of tropical and subtropical world. Being climacteric fruit it has short shelf life and susceptibility to low storage temperature limits its long term storage and distant marketing. Along with other endogenous plant growth substances polyamines have been involved in the development and ripening of mango fruit which ultimately affect its storage life and quality. ...

Digital image processing is an emerging tool to predict fruit quality; therefore present study was carried out to develop an image processing technique for investigating the storage life of cantaloupe. Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) impregnated materials were used to prolong the postharvest life of cantaloupe fruit and the effects of these treatments were evaluated by 3 image textural features ...
