The antioxidant activities based on the free radical scavenging, reducing power, and bleaching inhibition were investigated for the three commonly used honeys in Malaysia, namely, tualang, gelam, and acacia honey. The antioxidant capacity of the honey samples was correlated with their biochemical constituents such as total phenol, total flavonoid content, and total water-soluble vitamins (vitam...

in order to study the canopy temperature effect on protein and soluble sugar, oil percentage and yield of soybean in different planting dates, an experiment was conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications in karaj and moghan areas during 2012-13. the studied treatments were included cultivar (‘williams’ and ‘l17’) and planting date (5th of may, 5th o...

stress management is considered as an important factor in nowadays landscape. therefore this research was conducted using a factorial experiment based on a randomized completely design with regulated deficit irrigation at four levels (100, 75, 50, and 25% of lawn irrigation requirement) and three replicates to evaluate some biochemical and physiological traits on four groundcover plants (lolium...

Here, we characterized the changes in fruit quality and biochemical parameters four Myanmar mango cultivars from ripening stage 1 to 4 at ambient temperature. Total soluble solids, total sugars, reducing non-reducing sugar content increased, whereas titratable acidity decreased with increasing storage time all cultivars. ‘Sein Ta Lone’ showed highest consumer acceptability, maximum sensory scor...

The study investigated the pH, acidity, soluble solids, total sugar, polyphenol, flavonoid, anthocyanin content, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, and color of kombucha with a variety added fruit peels during fermentation process. Pear, grape, plum, orange, apple, golden kiwi were fermentation. pH showed decrease, while an increase in acidity was observed. An which higher...

This research was conducted to investigate the effects of low magnesium (Mg) with high potassium (K) supply on the Mg concentration, sugar partitioning and root growth of rice (Oryza Sativa L. cv. Wuyunjing 7) plants grown in hydroponics under greenhouse conditions, at Nanjing Agricultural University, China. The nutrient solution contained 0.01 and 1.0 mM Mg concentration, with K at 1.0 and 6.0...

This study was carried out on fruit of local orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) grown at private orchard Diyala governorate / Iraq, to the effect dipped fruits for 10 min in (0, 1, 2, 3% citric acid, 5 and 10% ginger) quality during 65- 105-days cold storage 5+1 with 85- 90% RH. Dipping acid solution reduced fruit's weight loss decay. Ginger extract significantly reserved acidity, total sugar s...

Fruit juices of four species of Citrus genus i.e. C. maxima, C. limon, C. sinensis, C. reticulata were analyzed for their nutritional content (i.e. soluble sugar, total RNA & pentose sugar, free amino acids, soluble protein, total phenolic compounds and vitamin-C) and antioxidant potential. The content of all studied parameters varied from one species to another but no specific trend was observ...
