ABSTRACT This study aimed to the effect of red dragon fruit peel (Hylocereus polyrhizus) addition on organoleptic assessment, nutritional values, and antioxidant content cucumber juice products as a functional food. used completely randomized design (CRD) method, which consisted six treatments G0 (500 g cucumber: 0 peel), G1 5 G2 10 G3 15 G4 20 G5 25 peel). Data were analyzed using analysis var...

Aim: To evaluate the anti-bacterial potential of pomegranate against Salmonella typhi. Methodology: Ethanolic extracts of pomegranate's different parts; peel, pericarp and fruit were screened for anti-bacterial activity against Multi-Drug Resistance (MDR) strain (UHS-14) by agar well diffusion method. 6% phenol was used as positive control. Results: The peel extract had the largest inhibitory z...

The effect of some natural wastes (orange pomace, orange peel, lemon pomace, lemon peel, apple pomace, pear peel, banana peel, melon peel and hazelnut shell) on the production of xylanase from Trichoderma harzianum 1073 D3 has been studied and maximum activity has been observed on melon peel (26.5 U/mg of protein) followed by apple pomace and hazelnut shell. Also, molasses could be used as an a...

Abstract The nature of natural dyes added to food raw materials is easily damaged during processing and exposure light. This study aimed determine the effect microencapsulation on antioxidant activity, color stability, particle size produced. used three types commodities be extracted with addition a coating, i.e. spirulina platensis using maltodextrin carrageenan; dragon fruit peel gum arabic; ...

A tape peeling model based on the geometry of the peel zone (PZ) is derived to predict the peeling behavior of adhesive tapes at peel angles less than or equal to 90o. The PZ model adds an angle-dependent multiplier to the ‘Kendall equation’ that takes into account the geometrical changes within the peel zone. The model is compared to experimental measurements of the peel force at different ang...

pomegranate (punica granatum) is an important fruit crop cultivated for fruit and processing in the iran. delaying fruit harvest of pomegranate may increase fruit losses due to fruit cracking; however, early harvest may influence physical and biochemical indices of fruit. an experiment was carried out in 2011 at ‘baghmalek’ (north west of ahwaz, khuzestan province, iran) to determine the effect...

Abstract Fruit bagging is a commonly used cultivation measure to protect citrus fruit from insects and adverse environments. The present study aimed comprehensively investigate the effects of on physiochemical characteristics grapefruit. grapefruit were bagged at approximately 110–120 d after anthesis with one-layer kraft paper bag black coating inside (SL), double-layer one as inner layer (DL)...
