Comparison analysis of linear least-square method and non-linear method of three widely used isotherms (Langmuir, Freundlich, and Redlich-Peterson) were examined to experiment with Remazol Red (C.I. 18221) onto pistachio nut shells at a solution temperature of 293 K. All three isotherm equations showed a better fit to the experimental equilibrium data. The results show that the Langmuir model s...

BACKGROUND:Raw and roasted nuts are one of the most popular snacks consumed in Iran but mishandling and poor storage conditions and practices may lead to promote the growth of microorganisms and foodborne intoxications and infections. OBJECTIVES:The purpose of this study was to investigate the microbial quality of raw and roasted (salted and unsalt- ed) n...

BACKGROUND Allergenicity of foods can be influenced by processing. Tree nuts are an important source of nutrition and increasingly consumed; however, processing methods are quite variable and data are currently lacking on the effects of processing on allergenicity. OBJECTIVE To perform a systematic literature review on the effects of food processing on the allergenicity of tree nuts. METHOD...

Many allergens, such as hazelnut, peanut, charlock, celery, sesame, lupine, walnut, almond, macadamia nut, hickory, pistachio, wheat gliadins, may be present in food products, however, undeclared or as unintentional additives. Due to the growing number of allergic reactions, it is crucial to have fast, reliable methods of allergen detection in processed food products. This review summarizes the...

pistachio has a special ranking among iranian agricultural products. iran is known as the largest producer and exporter of pistachio in the world. agricultural products are imposed under different thermal treatments during storage and processing. designing all these processes requires thermal parameters of the products such as specific heat capacity. regarding the importance of pistachio proces...

In 1984 studies were initiated to identify the bird species causing damage to pistachio nuts, quantify the losses, and explore possible methods for alleviating bird losses. The first year's field observations were made to identify and determine the level of activity of the various depredating bird species in the orchard. Field samples of nuts were collected to assess the levels of damage occurr...

Tree nuts are rich in macro and micronutrients, phytochemicals, tocopherols and phenolic compounds. The development of nut spreads would potentially increase the food uses of nuts and introduce consumers with a healthier, non-animal breakfast snack food. Nut spreads are spreadable products made from nuts that are ground into paste. Roasting and milling (particle size reduction) are two importan...

Abstract This is the first official report of pistachio pest Eurytoma plotnikovi in France. Twenty adults were identified after they emerged from a sample collected South‐Eastern A brief description provided, along with biological, geographical and economic data on pest. species should not be considered as major concern for nut production France so far, although this might evolve development cr...

this research carried out in the rafsanjan pistachio orchard to investigate the effect of n form, manure, k and fe on yield, nut quality and leaf mineral nutrients concentrations of pistacia vera l. cv. fandoghi grafted on badami-riz zarand rootstock. the experiment was as factorial with four factors including; manure (without manure and 10 kg tree-1 sheep manure), n form (ammonium sulfate and ...
