The effects of apple pomace diets on rumen microbial population, movement of ingesta from the rumen, and water intake were studied in two trials with beef steers. Trial 1 was a 5 • 5 Latin square in which five ruminal fistulated steers were fed either corn silage plus cottonseed meal (CSM), apple pomace plus CSM, apple pomace plus urea, apple pomace plus urea and starch, or apple pomace plus ur...

Apple pomace is a waste product of the apple manufacturing industry that has been in the focus of life sciences as it represents a low-cost source of fruit-derived compounds. High fruit consumption is associated with beneficial health effects, and therefore, apple pomace and its constituents raise therapeutic interest. The present work reviews (i) the chemical constituents of apple pomace, (ii)...

Apple pomace is a by-product from the apple processing industry and has the potential to support the growth of microorganisms. In this study, the effect of apple pomace on the growth rate of Pleurotus ostreatus mycelium was investigated. The mycelial growth dramatically increased by 34.5, 20 and 26% in solid culture, liquid culture, and solid-state fermentation, respectively, by adding 2.5% app...

Samples of fresh apple pomace were collected from 14 loads of apple pomace as delivered from the processing plant in October 1968 and from stored apple pomace that had been obtained in October 1967 and fed during a feeding trial from mid-November 1967 through April 1968. All samples were analyzed for dicofol (kelthane), tetradifon (tedion), DDT, DDD and DDE. For the pesticide residues in fresh ...

D RIED apple pomace and apple pomace silage have been fed successfully to ruminants (Hills, 1902; Lindsey et al., 1921; Walton and Bidwell, 1923; Holdaway, 1925; Atkeson and Anderson, 1927; Knott et al., 1932; Perkins and Monroe, 1935). I t has replaced all of the roughage normally used for wintering beef cows (Burris and Priode, 1957). However, in the past, apple pomace has contained up to 40 ...

Laccase activity of Pleurotus ostreatus is significantly increased by the addition of apple pomace. Among various conditions, the best concentration of apple pomace and cultivation time for the production of laccase by P. ostreatus was 2.5% and 9 days, respectively. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analyses of laccase isoenzyme genes, including pox1, pox3, pox4, poxc, poxa3, and ...

A process for the combined recovery of pectin and phenolic compounds from apple pomace, the primary by-product of apple juice production, was developed. The process includes extraction of dried apple pomace with diluted mineral acid and adsorption of phenolic constituents by a hydrophobic styrene–divinylbenzene copolymerisate. After elution with methanol, the polyphenolics were concentrated in ...

background: the correct usage of  wastes in animal nutrition causes  decrease in environmental pollution. apple pomace as an energetic matter and source of digestible fibers for ruminants is a proper alternative for forage. objectives: the aim of this experiment was to investigate the effect of diets containing dried apple pomace on digestibility, rumination, microbial fermentation and blood gl...

Skeletal abnormalities consisting of shortened long bones, enlarged joints and splayed front feet in newborn calves were associated with cows fed apple pomace supplemented with nonprotein nitrogen (NPN) during late gestation. Measurements of x-ray films of the metacarpus and lumber vertebrae from 86 calves in three trials showed that calves from dams fed apple pomace and NPN had longer, thicker...

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of extraction time, extraction temperature and water to pomace ratio on the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of apple pomace aqueous extracts. Pomace was extracted using water (20-90°C) for 5-60 min. The extracts were evaluated for their total phenolic content (Folin Ciocalteu assay) and antioxidant activity (DPPH, FRAP and ABTS assays). A...
