Abstract Phenolic compounds in prickly pear [ Opuntia ficus indica (L.) Mill.] are known to contribute the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of pear. The present study aimed evaluate antioxidants vitro potential hydroethanolic extracts different parts (fruit, cladode, pulp) Different polyphenolic were analyzed by using high‐performance liquid chromatography. results indicated that cladode possessed a higher quantity phenolics compared with observed fruit pulp. most important phenolic...
Nutraceuticals can serve as an alternative supplement to overcome nutritional deficiency for a healthy lifestyle. They also play key role in disease management. To develop carrot nutraceutical products, 64 genotypes from four different continents were evaluated range of morpho-nutrition variables. Genetic variability, heritability, strength and direction association among variables, direct indirect relationships physiochemical traits with β-carotene content evaluated. Core diameter, foliage...
ABSTRACT Measuring genotypic variation in Fe is an important task for plant breeders trying to biofortify wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.), but levels of are often enhanced seed due soil derived contamination. Seed Al can be used identify genotypes that contaminated with Fe. The sources contamination were identified and removed by milling the grains a modified Kett mill 5 s before analysis. Thirty lines from Australia 240 Pakistan cleaned validation method. Before cleaning, average...
The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ultrasound on functional properties citrus juices. Citrus fruits and juices were analyzed for physico-chemical properties. 'Pamelo' excelled in terms average fruit weight (451.83 ± 7.1 g), volume (543.33 9.1 cm3) rag percentage (68.64 1.1%). 'Valencia late' (48.67 0.3%), 'Flame' (48.38 1.3%) 'Kinnow' (35.95 4.9%) good juice %. subjected sonication treatment at 15°C 5 min keeping pulse duration s off (70% amplitude level 20 kHz...
Okra possesses a short shelf-life which limits its marketability, thereby, the present study investigates individual and combined effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on postharvest storage life okra. The treated/ untreated okra samples were stored at ambient (i.e., 27 °C) low 7 temperatures for eight 20 days, respectively. Results revealed that 1-MCP and/or MAP treatment successfully inhibited fruit softening, reduction in mucilage viscosity, color...
To investigate the antihyperglycemic and antihyperlipidemic effect of Momordica charantia (Karala), aqueous extract Karala fruit was tested on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Thirty six albino rats were used in experiment, 30 remaining as negative control (T1). Diabetes induced by administering (injecting) STZ at dose 55mg/kg body weight. animals randomly divided into five groups such group (T2) without any application treatment, T3,T4,T5 T6 treated with fruits daily doses 250,...
The effect of spirulina in lead induce toxicity was conducted on 20 adult rats (Long Evans). Rats were randomly divided into four equal groups and subjected to treatments once daily for a period 4 weeks. treated with acetate showed severe toxic significantly reduced erythrocytes count, hemoglobin content elevated SGPT, SGOT ALP. plus two doses, 1500 mg/kg 2000 b.wt. apparently normal. There hematological biochemical parameters not altered significantly. This experiment revealed that...
Papaya ( Carica papaya ) fruit has a short shelf life and suffers significant postharvest losses due to climacteric, instant ripening perishable nature. Pre-storage hot water treatment (HWT) potential delay decay incidence in horticultural commodities. The present study was designed evaluate effectiveness of HWT on ‘Red lady’ for minimizing the maintaining quality during storage. Physiologically mature unripe harvested from commercial orchard. Selected fruits were treated...
The first primitive watermelon domestication has been reported more than 5,000 years ago in Northeast Africa. Watermelon is recognized all over the world as a delicious fruit that quenches thirst many people consume summer heat. There are about 1,200 varieties of watermelon. Watermelons loaded with plentiful nutrients, such vitamin C, pantothenic acid, copper, biotin, A, and vitamins B6 & B1. processed to manufacture various value-added foods, cookies, cakes, juice, jam, cadies,...
Olives and its oil are considered an imperative element of diet due to their excellent nutritional quality. Geographical factors (i.e., geology, slope, elevation temperature) genetic variability in different olive cultivars influence plant growth, yield, profiling fatty acids. The prime objective this investigation was demonstrate the prodigious consequences high temperature on production, acid composition four (Coratina, Frantoio, Ottobratica Leccino) at three geographical locations (BARI,...
