This study was conducted to find the effects of fruit ripening and extraction method on the quantity and quality of the Koroneiki olive oil. The oil samples extracted in six ripening stages were used for further quality analysis. Quality assessment of the oil was conducted according to the standard methods and the composition of fatty acids was measured by gas chromatography. The results showed...

Study the effect of fruit cultivar (intact, early split, irregular crack) on (Akbari, Abbasali, Khanjari) cultivars in Damghan city to Aspergillus Flavus fungus and effect of harvest time in early split pistachio in 1389, sampling from orchards has been performed. Samples after grinding by dilute cultivating in a specific AFPA medium bottles in a completely randomized model were three times rec...

Low-energy and low-cost separation of microalgae from water is important to the economics of microalgae harvesting and processing. Flotation under vacuum using a vacuum gas lift for microalgae harvesting was investigated for different airflow rates, bubble sizes, salinities and harvest volumes. Harvesting efficiency (HE) and concentration factor (CF) of the vacuum gas lift increased by around 5...

to study the effect of harvesting time on soybean seed germination and vigor a factorial experiment with three replications, including of five harvesting time and three soybean cultivars was carried out in the field and glasshouse. the effect of harvesting time on seed germination percentage (in the field, cold test and paper test), seed germination rate, shoot and root weights, 1000-seed weigh...

The timing of harvesting is a key instrument in managing and exploiting biological populations and renewable resources. Yet, there is little theory on harvest timing, and even less is known about the impact of different harvest times on the stability of population dynamics, even though this may drive population variability and risk of extinction. Here, we employ the framework proposed by Seno t...
