Apple pomace, a waste product from the apple juice industry is a potential feedstock for biofuel and biorefinery chemical production. Optimisation of hydrolysis conditions for apple pomace hydrolysis using Viscozyme L and Celluclast 1.5L was investigated using 1 L reaction volumes. The effects of temperature, pH, β-glucosidase supplementation and substrate feeding regimes were determined. Hydro...

BACKGROUND Guava pomace is an example of the processing waste generated after the manufacturing process from the juice industry that could be a source of bioactives. Thus, the present investigation was carried out in order to evaluate the anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive potential and determinate the main phenolic compounds of a guava pomace extract (GPE). METHODS The anti-inflammatory a...

Several timbers and crop by-products were subjected to an enzymatic treatment to obtain a xylo-oligosaccharides-enriched preparation. The process was performed by means of the commercial endo-β-1,4xylanase Buzyme 2511. The enzymatic cocktail was applied onto the raw ground materials with yield up to 5.3 ± 1.0 g/L xylo-oligosaccharides for apple pomace. In order to make the materials more access...

raspberry waste, obtained from two cultivars, meeker (erm) and willamette (erw) was subjected to evaluation antioxidants and antitumour activities as a potential source of phenolics. some phenolic acids and flavonoids were identified and quantified by hplc. antioxidant activity was tested by measuring ability to scavenge dpph• and •oh by esr spectroscopy. ic50dpph• varied from 0.67 for erm to 0...

In this study, the freeze-dried powders from whole grapes, pomace and juice of Campbell Early (Vitis labruscana Bailey) were prepared to determine the amount of total flavonoids, vitamins A, C, and E, and dietary fiber. Effects of whole grape, pomace, or juice intakes on their antioxidative capacity and DNA damage were investigated in Sprague-Dawley male rats. A total of 120 rats at 13 mo old a...

the effect of grape pomace (vitis vinifera) and in oak leaf (quercus libani) tannins by three runs of in vitro gas production on the organic matter digestibility (omd) and in situ dry matter (dm) and crude protein (cp) disappearance were studied in four sheeps. polyethylene glycol (peg) was used to deactivate the tannins. in vitro gas production was recorded at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 48, 72, 96 and 12...

In this paper, industrial dyes, Disperse Red and Disperse Orange, were studied as model pollutants to show the excellent performance of olive pomace (OP) in sequestering and recovering these dangerous dyes from wastewater. The nature of interactions involved between dyes and OP were inferred by changing several parameters: contact time, pomace dosage, pH and temperature values. Visible spectros...

Residues from the food industry are a problem worldwide. Alternatives have been developed in an attempted to extract compounds from fruit pomace in other to apply those as a natural component in different products. This work has the objective to produce two extracts: (1) ethanolic extract and (2) hot water extract; and characterize the chemical composition of these extracts for future applicati...

in this research the 2 sub verities of rhizopus oligosporus was used for production of antioxidative bioactive compounds from whey protein concentrate (wpc) and apple pomace. total phenolic compounds, free radical scavenging ability by dpph and antioxidant protection factort were evaluated in 48 determined treatments. effect of incubation temperature in three levels 23, 27, 31°c, incubation tim...
