The effect of chemical preservatives sodium benzoate, potassium metabisulphite and sorbet used individually in combination, was studied on the microbial sensory quality mango pulp (packed 1kg glass plastic containers) stored at ambient temperature (30-36 C) for o 90 days with an interval fifteen days. Mean score taste panel color, flavor overall acceptability significantly (p<0.01) decreased, while growth increased during storage. Results showed that samples 0.2% packed containers had...
Abstract Background Enzymatic browning and microbial decay are the primary concerns that limit postharvest life of longan fruit. These factors can be effectively prevented by sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) fumigation; however, due to safety regulatory issues SO , other alternatives must tested. In this study, antioxidant antimicrobial activities thymol were determined against pericarp A simple, cost-effective method was designed for its controlled release. Thymol vapors obtained from slurry prepared...
Excessive consumption of food products laden with sugar pose threat to health consumers generally and diabetes patients particularly.Moreover, some low-calorie did not meet sensory preferences consumers.Therefore, this research was conducted evaluate the quality acceptability a low-caloric orange drink by incorporating various concentrations stevia powder storing it within temperature range 20±0.4°C.The investigated treatments included: Orange Drink (OD)0 ( Juice: 15%, Sugar: 13%, Stevia:...
Abstract BACKGROUND Information about the nutritive value, dry matter (DM) digestibility, and methane (CH 4 ) emission potential of grass species is required for their optimal utilization in ruminant rations. The present study was designed: (i) to quantify nutrient profile, mineral composition vitro digestibility (IVDMD) winter commonly available northern Pakistan; (ii) measure gas production (IVGP) CH during 72 h ruminal fermentation. Seven species, namely, Cenchrus ciliaris, Setaria...
