in this research, rehydration behavior of dried figs was studied at different temperatures (25, 60, 70, 80, and 90°c). the rehydration kinetic was examined using the four most frequently used empirical models, namely, weibull, peleg, first-order, and exponential association models. the weibull model gave the highest coefficient of determination (r2) and the lowest values of root mean square err...

dried figs collected from various exporting companies (2,461 samples) and local stores (219 samples) were analyzed using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (rp-hplc) to determine and compare the incidence of aflatoxins, the effectiveness of the regulation limits and monitoring system to select non-compliant samples and the mean daily aflatoxin exposures. the incidence rates of...

the present study was carried out to investigate the occurrence of total mycobiota and aspergillus species at different stages of fig production and processing in iran. in the meantime, the potential of different culture media for isolation of fungal species from figs was also investigated. the mycobiota of 389 samples of dried fig were studied. total fungal counts ranged from

BACKGROUND Figs are a rich source of soluble fiber. We evaluated the effect of consuming dried California Mission figs on serum lipids in hyperlipidemic adults. METHODS In a crossover trial men and women aged 30-75 years with elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (100-189 mg/dl) were randomized to add dried California Mission figs (120 g/day) to their usual diet for 5 weeks or eat thei...

Dried figs are one of the horticultural products that require sorting in the postharvest stage in order to be presented to the market. In Iran, figs are graded manually by professional workers or automatically by mechanical machines. This paper presents a new algorithm based on machine vision technology applicable to be installed in the fig sorting machines. In the presented methodology, image ...

Fig production is carried out in a very limited number of countries the world, and accordingly, producing dried figs quite low. In this study, small scale tunnel type greenhouse model dryer was designed manufactured. process drying with hot air by using combination uninsulated collector system. Sarılop fig variety chosen as food to be dried. The experiments were Aydın August 2021. Drying parame...

A species of the bacterial genus Flavobacterium is capable of synthesizing a polysaccharide or mixture of polysaccharides when grown in a medium of a-conidendrin or vanillic acid as a sole carbon source. The polysaccharide hydrolysate consists of D-galactose, D-glucose, D-mannose, D-ribose and L-rhamnose as determined by paper chromatography. This organism has the unique characteristic of growi...

Abstract Dried figs are a garden produce that must be graded after harvesting. Moisture levels and contaminated blank two of the most critical effective elements on marketability dried figs, they highly related to fig quality. In present research, an intelligent system was employed classify based moisture content infected fruits. Capacitance characteristics, average diameter, fruit area were al...
