Ziziphus mauritiana is used as food and medicine. It very nutritive contains high amounts of calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin C, beta-carotene. To choose an appropriate technique for fruit preservation, this study evaluated the effect temperature time on nutritional anti-nutritional qualities harvested from Kobo Woreda in North-Eastern Ethiopia. This assessed impact preservation parameters pr...

Ziziphus jujuba Mill. is one of the most important fruit crops and has been cultivated in China for more than 4000 years. Z. jujuba fruit is rich in nutritional and medicinal values. Compared to other wood fruits, Z. jujuba is unique in its flowering and fruiting characteristics. Floral buds differentiation and formation of Z. jujuba is an essential process that affects yield. Z. jujuba ‘Jinsi ...

Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) has long been widely used for human consumption and medicinal purposes in China. It has been reported to possess several vital biological activities. However, the systematic study on the chemical constituents absorbed into plasma and their metabolites is still insufficient.A high-performance liquid chromatography-photodiode array detector-electrospray ioni...

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of Ziziphus mucronata and Parkia biglobosa on haematological and biochemical indices of sheep. The experiment was carried out in a complete randomized block design. A total of 32 animals were used for the study with 16 animals per experiment. The animals were allotted to four dietary treatments with four animals per treatment. The results of th...

Jujube is a characteristic light-demanding fruit tree, but quality frequently degraded because of the weak light in protected cultivation facilities south China. In this study, black shade net was used to set three intensities artificially: no shading (0%, control, NS), moderate (45%, MS), and severe (76%, SS) investigate effect low on sugar metabolism jujube. Compared with NS, chlorophyll caro...

OBJECTIVES The neuroprotective effect of fruit aqueous extract of Ziziphus jujuba Lam on glucose-induced neurotoxicity in PC12 cells as an appropriate in vitro model of diabetic neuropathy was investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cell viability was determined by the MTT assay. Cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was measured by DCFH-DA analysis. Cleaved caspase-3, a biochemical p...

Loess Plateau is a typical rain-fed farming region, facing the threat of drought. Irrigation method is among the most important factors affecting jujube quality. This study investigated the response of Ziziphus jujuba Mill. cv. Lizao quality to three different irrigation methods (drip-, pipe- and surge spring root irrigation) combining two water levels (20 m(3)/hm(2) and 120 m(3)/hm(2)). The ef...
