sesame (sesamum indicum l.) seed and oil have long been used widely as healthy foods to supply energy and prevent aging. some of the main active anti-oxidative constituents in sesame seeds are γ-tocopherol and phenols. the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between roasting temperature and time with γ-tocopherol and total phenolic compounds (tpc) of sesame seeds when roas...

The phenol-degrading strain Trichosporon cutaneum R57 utilizes various aromatic and aliphatic compounds as a sole carbon and energy source. The intracellular activities of phenol hydroxylase [EC 1.14.13.7] of a Trichosporon cutaneum R57 strain grown on phenol (0.5 g/l) were measured. Different toxic phenol derivatives (cresols, nitrophenols and hydroxyphenols) were used as substrates in the rea...

Background and Objectives: Black mulberry is a juicy and dark purple to black fruit with a good balance of sweetness and tartness. This fruit is highly interested due to high quantities of anthocyanins. The bioactive compounds are often present in fruit tissues and should be released. The aim of this study was to extract bioactive compounds of black mulberries and assessment of heating process ...

background and aims: to evaluate the effect of temperature on wheat streak mosaic virus (wsmv) resistance phenotype, through total protein, phenol, and peroxidase activity in bread wheat, a factorial experiment was conducted using adl-cross (resistant) and marvdasht (susceptible) cultivars. materials and methods: results showed that incubation at 32c changed the gene expression for resistance ...

screening of native cultivars and understanding of the mechanisms involved in cold hardiness in grapevines is needed to match cultivars appropriately with growing sites and aid in breeding and selecting cultivars with improved freezing tolerance. in this study cold hardiness of fifteen grapevine (vitis vinifera l.) cultivars were evaluated using tetrazolium stain test and post freezing budbreak...

natural citrus biotypes are a valuable genetic resource in the country. investigation about diversity of biochemical compounds due to optimize the utilization and development of new varieties is useful. therefore, for identifying them, the fruits of 16 biotypes with numbers of 6, 8, 15, 21, 24, 25, 26, 29, 30, 41, 43, 45, 48, 51, 52 and 53 in the germplasm collection of the iran citrus research...

Alternaria solani was a potential leaf spot pathogen of Azadirachta indica L, was isolated from diseased Azadirachta indica L leaves from Nashik and used for the present study. Pathogen was grown on the Czapek-Dox liquid medium substituting or adding different carbon, nitrogen to study phenol production. Considerable variation in the production of total phenol was observed when different carbon...
