Isolation and identification of Exopolysaccharide producing Cronobacter species from root nodules of leguminous plants
Written by Gitanjali G. Mane   Published On Issue 2 Vol 9, 2018
Exopolysaccharides have various applications due to their unique rheological properties as in food, pharmaceutical and other industries. Exopolysaccharides also have some medical applications as anti-cancer, anti-viral and immune-modulator. In present study, 72 bacterial strains were isolated from root nodules of eight different leguminous plants and screened for exopolysaccharide production. Out of 72 isolates, 15 bacterial isolates showing good growth and exopolysaccharide production in primar

Assessment of cytotoxicity and artificial peroxidase activity of multi wall Carbon Nano tubes
Written by Maziar Bahreini   Published On Issue 2 Vol 9, 2018
Multi Wall Carbon Nano Tubes (MWCNTs) have enormous potential in biomedical researches. Structural and size-dependent properties such as length, diameter have notable effects on cytotoxicity which represent major challenge in this field. The aim of this research is evaluation of peroxidase mimic activity of MWCNTs as Nanozyme via Hydroquinone-H2O2 coupled colorimetric system cell viability which was tested on HU02 Human Fibroblast cells using different concentrations of MWCNTs by MTT assay.

Development and evaluation of low-cost frequency based sensor for non-destructive detection of paneer spoilage
Written by Rajni Kant   Published On Issue 2 Vol 9, 2018
Food spoilage occurs due to the microbial and enzymatic activities which alter the composition of the product with their metabolites. Paneer, also called Indian cottage cheese, gets spoiled due to poor quality of milk, faulty production methods, unhygienic processing conditions, and poor refrigeration facilities. The spoilage has been detected conventionally by destructive sampling methods. This paper proposes a non-destructive method of detecting paneer spoilage using a Radio-Frequency (RF) bas

Characterization of physical properties of red beet pigments
Written by Afnan F. Halwani   Published On Issue 2 Vol 9, 2018
This work aimed to extract betalain pigments from red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) by different extraction methods: water and citric acid (2%) solvents to select the optimal method for extraction. In addition, the study determined total betalains, and effect of pH, time and temperature on betalains stability. The results showed that, pH, temperature and time of extraction did not have effect on the stability of Vulgaxanthin-1 pigment extracted using water and citric acid solvents. The concentration o

The Shelf life Stability of Mixed Fruit and Vegetable Juice with Moringa Oleifera Leaves Extract
Written by Jamila M. Hashemi   Published On Issue 2 Vol 9, 2018
Background: Moringa oleifera leaves (M.O.L.) have medical and nutritional properties, which make these leaves appropriate for using to make various food products such as juices. Fruits and vegetables commonly consumed as a beverage and juice. Mostly, to have higher quality juice with fresh taste, the standard is often fresh juice not-processed, however, their shelf life is less than 6 or 7 days depends on the fruit and vegetable types. Thus, they have been preserved by several methods such as th

Thermodynamic Solvation Parameters for Saturated Benzoic Acid and some of its Derivatives in Binary Mixtures of Ethanol and Water
Written by Elsayed M. AbouEllef   Published On Issue 2 Vol 9, 2018
Different thermodynamic parameters of solvation were evaluated for the benzoic acid, orthotoluic acid, paratoluic acid, 2-chloro benzoic acid and 4-chloro benzoic acid by measuring the molal solubilities of their saturated solutions at different temperatures in binary mixtures of ethanol-water solvents. The solubility was increased when the mole fraction of ethanol increased in the binary mixtures, and also their solvation behaviors were increased by increasing temperature. The experimental solu

Extraction of antioxidant compounds of Anacyclus pyrethrum root extract and evaluation ‎of its oxidative stability in sunflower oil
Written by Ali Hosseini   Published On Issue 2 Vol 9, 2018
There are several methods to prevent oxidation of oils, one of which is the addition of synthetic antioxidants. However, due to the fact that synthetic antioxidants have undesirable effects, such as the effect of mutagenicity and carcinogenicity in human body, it is necessary to investigate the sources of natural antioxidants in order to replace synthetic compounds. In this study, methanolic extract of Anacyclus pyrethrum root were extracted. Extracted extract were added to sunflower oil at diff
