This research describes a voltammetric approach to determine amounts of vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) in orange juice sample, using three screen printed electrode. The anodic currents of vitamin C were proportional to vitamin C concentration in the range of 0 – 10.0 mM with the limit of detection of 1.36 mM. The method was successfully employed with 2 μL of the working solution dropped on the elect...

The nor mutant of Aspergillus flavus has a defective norsolorinic acid reductase, and thus the aflatoxin biosynthetic pathway is blocked, resulting in the accumulation of norsolorinic acid, a bright red-orange pigment. We developed a visual agar plate assay to monitor yeast strains for their ability to inhibit aflatoxin production by visually scoring the accumulation of this pigment of the nor ...

Juice prepared from lemon (Eureka), mandarin (Kinnow) and orange (Orlando) fruits cultivated in Saudi Arabia were analyzed for different physico-chemical properties, total phenolics, ascorbic acid and antiradical activities. Juices from lemon, mandarin and orange 8.97, 16.1 and 11.78% total soluble solids; 5.73, 1.37 and 1.69% titrable acidity; 79.21, 91.18 and 107.37 mg GAE/100mL total phenoli...

Purpose This study aims to demonstrate that orange-derived and lemon-derived systems can be used in continuous processes as efficient adsorbents the entrapment of some anionic cationic dyes textile dyeing wastewater effluents. Design/methodology/approach Physically chemically modified orange lemon mesocarps are natural for Basic Blue 3, Yellow 21, Red 18 Green 4 Acid 264, 49 337, all commonly i...

based on the valuable antioxidant activity of citrus fruits, in present study the effect of ‎rootstock and the type of tissue on some fruit quality parameters including phenol, ‎flavonoid, antioxidant and the content of hesperidin and naringin of orange and mandarin ‎was studied. the experiment was conducted as a factorial design based on complete ‎randomized blocks with four replications. resu...

Green tea leaves have high contents of phenolic compounds which has strong antioxidant properties but can have bitter taste which makes it less useful in food applications. Encapsulation in nanoliposomes could mask undesirable taste of green teas components and protect them against processing and storage. The objective of this study was to: 1) produce and evaluate physical properties of green t...

Acid-etched graphitic carbon nitride (TGCN) nanosheets decorated with polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers for the adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of Methyl Orange (MO) Congo Red (CR) toxic textile dyes.

Investigations have demonstrated that ratio of sugars to organic acids affects the particular taste of citrus fruit and carotenoids are essential for prevent of the disease.  It seems that some rootstocks enhance the ripening of fruits and stimulatethe biosynthesis of sugars and carotenoids. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of rootstocks on sugars, organic acids andcarotenoids o...
