Almond major protein (AMP or amandin), the primary storage protein in almonds, is the major allergen recognized by almond-allergic patients. A rabbit antibody-based inhibition ELISA assay for detecting and quantifying AMP in commercial foods has been developed, and this assay, in conjunction with Western blotting analyses, has been applied to the investigation of the antigenic stability of AMP ...

The aims of the present work were to study the composition of almond and pistachio juices processing by-products and their use in cookies formulation. These by-products have relatively high carbohydrate, protein, fat, calcium and magnesium contents. There were slight difference (p>0.05) in essential amino acid contents between almond by-products and pistachio by-products and also both juices pr...

This paper investigates the opportunity of using almond oil as a renewable and alternative fuel source. Different fuel blends containing 10, 30, and 50% almond biodiesel (B10, B30, and B50) with diesel fuel (B0) were prepared and the influence of these blends on emissions and some performance parameters under various load conditions were inspected using a diesel engine. Measured engine performa...

High quality material production has been among the work of many researchers in recent years. These materials, which are obtained mostly by composite enable lighter, more durable and less costly products. Increasing environmental pollution years, protection natural resources ensuring recycling have increased importance wood plastic production. In this study, was using ABS (Acrylonitrile butadie...

(1) Background: The oil stability of tree nuts during storage can be influenced by conditions such as temperature, humidity, and moisture concentration. However, few studies have assessed how the presence testa shell affects storage. We aimed to determine affect in almond canarium, particular, time nut-in-shell (NIS). (2) Methods: measured peroxide value (PV), free fatty acid (FFA) hexanal conc...

The focus of this project was to provide baseline PM10 emission factor data for almond sweeping operations as well as to move forward on quantification of a possible conservation management practice (CMP) for almond sweeping. In conjunction with the emission factor development work, continued quantification of sampler bias was conducted. This report provides an assessment of the progress and up...

BACKGROUND Viola odorata L. belongs to Violaceae family and is native to Iran. It is used in the form of Almond-Violet oil in traditional Persian medicine (TPM) since ancient times. Almond-Violet oil was used for the treatment of insomnia, headache, cough, and fever based on TPM textbooks. There are two methods for the preparation of Almond-Violet oil. The first is macerating voila flowers in s...

People battling celiac disease are at a disadvantage because of their inability to consume glutencontaining products (Mezaize, 2009). Also, one of the 2010 Dietary Guidelines is to consume adequate protein (United States Department of Agriculture, 2010). Almond flour is high in protein, which is the structural part of all cells in the body and aids in the functioning of enzymes and hormones. Th...

Background: Natural cosmetics are becoming increasingly popular among the general public. beauty products promote a holistic approach to environmental and health preservation. As result, consumers seeking that type of search for may ensure genuinely natural effect. Over last two decades, number studies demonstrating benefits ingredients in dermatologic hair care, as well disease treatment, has ...

A life cycle assessment was performed to compare the sustainability of gasification and fast pyrolysis processes for producing bio-oil using agricultural wastes from biomass. The objective carry out environmental analysis associated with production 1 MJ different biomasses both thermochemical determine which process is more respectful environment. revealed that detrimental environment all under...
