Development of New Product: Rambutan Pulpy Juice

This study aimed to know the effect of adding pulp in rambutan fruit juice on the characteristics of rambutan juice during storage. Research using the CRD, the treatment were kind of pulp (mandarin and rambutan) and pulp concentration (5%, 7.5%, and 10%). The results showed that the addition of pulp significantly affect the characteristics of rambutan juice (pH, vitamin C, total acid) during storage. Pulpy juice with the most prefered was addition of rambutan pulp as much as 7.5% (w/v) and the addition of citrus pulp as much as 7.5% (w/v) with the score of 3-4 (moderate like - like).     

Occurrence and Preclusion of Terpene Chlorohydrins in Citrus Essential Oils

ABSTRACT: Screening commercial cold-pressed oils revealed the presence of terpene chlorohydrins, which may have quality and safety implications for end-users. Concentrations of (1R, 2R, 4R)-2-chloro-8- p -menthen-1-ol in some citrus essential oils ranged from less than 1 to 140 ppm. More than half of the oils tested contained less than 2 ppm of (1R, 2R, 4R)-2-chloro-8- p -menthen-1-ol. A pilot plant study used different concentrations of chlorinated water during the oil-recovery process. Cold-pressed oil, produced from a 30-ppm chlorine solution, contained (1R, 2R, 4R)-2-chloro-8- p -menthen-1-ol at detection threshold. The presence of (1R, 2R, 4R)-2-chloro-8- p -menthen-1-ol in citrus essential oils results from processing conditions and can be reduced through the reduction of chlorine levels in treatment water.     

Lead recovery from aqueous environment by using porous carbon of citrus fruits waste: equilibrium,kinetics and thermodynamic studies

ABSTRACT

The mixture of citrus fruits (orange, grapefruit, mandarin, and lemon) wastes was utilized to obtain high surface area activated carbon (AC) by H₃PO₄ activation. The production conditions were optimized and the optimum conditions were determined. The optimal-activated carbon (CFWAC) was characterized by various physicochemical techniques. CFWAC was also used as a sorbent for Pb (II) ions from water. Batch experiments were performed to explore the adsorption capacity and mechanism. The Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic model showed good fitness to the experimental data. The maximum Pb (II) adsorption capacity of CFWAC was found to be 163.93 mg/g.     

柑桔木虱有效防治药剂田间筛选试验

控制柑桔木虱是黄龙病综合防治最重要的措施。田间药效试验结果表明，敌敌畏、乐果、辛硫磷、马拉硫磷、乙酰甲胺磷、阿维菌素、丁醚脲等对木虱成虫的防效低于80％，吡虫啉为86．6％；甲氰菊酯及与三唑磷、丙溴磷、水胺硫磷的混剂，高效氯氰菊酯及与毒死蜱的混剂的防效都在90．0％以上；啶虫脒对成、若虫的防效都较差，与柴油、吡虫啉混用有增效作用。     

Thermogenic Effect from Nutritionally Enriched Coffee Consumption

Background  

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of nutritionally enriched JavaFit™ (JF) coffee (450 mg of caffeine, 1200 mg of garcinia cambogia, 360 mg of citrus aurantium extract, and 225 mcg of chromium polynicotinate) on resting oxygen uptake (VO₂), respiratory exchange ratio (RER), heart rate (HR), and blood pressure (BP) in healthy and physically active individuals.

水性聚氨酯涂膜在柑桔贮存保鲜中的应用研究

以常用的保鲜涂膜剂羧甲基壳聚糖、海藻酸钠和自制的水性聚氨酯乳液为涂膜剂,对柑桔进行涂膜保鲜实验,并与未涂膜柑桔作比较,分别测定柑桔失重率、含糖量、Vc含量、呼吸强度随贮存的变化,并观察外观质量。研究发现,用自制水性聚氨酯乳液进行涂膜后柑桔贮存期间的各项参数明显优于未涂膜柑桔和其它浸涂膜的柑桔,从而有效提高了柑桔的商品价值,延长了货架期。
