Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Ultra-High Pressure Technology on Isomerization and Antioxidant Activity of Lycopene in Solanum LycopersicumSiqun Jing, Zainixi Lasheng, Saisai Wang, Hui ShiTo evaluate the influence of the Ultra-High Pressure processing (UHP) on the isomerization and antioxidant activity of lycopene in tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum), High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Ultraviolet-Visible Spectroscopy (UV-Vis) were used to separate and identify the isomer of lycopene. The scavenging activities against DPPH∙and∙OH present samples with and without UHP treatment were tested with ascorbic acid as positive … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2020 · 7,225 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Induction of Lycopene in Germinating Cottonseed with 2-(4-Methylphenoxy) Triethylamine (MPTA)Lorraine S. Puckhaber, Jinggao LiuAbstract: Problem Statement: Increasing carotenoids content in foods was currently of great interest. The present paper reports strong stimulatory effect of MPTA on the carotenogenesis in cotton, which was used as a model. Approach: Cotton seedlings were treated with MPTA vs. water and germinated in the dark. The levels of carotenoids were determined by HPLC and the expression levels of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Jul 2011 · 7,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on the Suitable Irrigation Amount of Microporous Membrane Water-Fertilizer Integration of Tomato in Spring in Plastic GreenhouseXiao Huaijuan, Du Qingjie, Zhang Jiaxin et al.Water-saving irrigation is an important measure to alleviate the shortage of water resources in China. In this study, the growth, nutrient distribution, quality and yield of Tomato under different irrigation treatments are studied by using microporous membrane water-fertilizer integrated technology and the optimal irrigation water quantity under the condition of microporous membrane water-fertilizer integration was determined. The results show that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2020 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination and Evaluation of Antioxidative Activity in Red Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus undatus) and Green Kiwi Fruit (Actinidia deliciosa)Normala Halimoon, Mardhiah Hayati Abdul HasanProblem statement: Dragon fruit or pitahaya (Hylocereus undatus), is believed to be a healthy source of vitamins, fiber and antioxidants, especially the red-fleshed varieties which contain lycopene. Approach:Compared to green kiwi fruit (Actinidia deliciosa), which already known contain high antioxidant activity. Results:The antioxidant capacity of Hylocereus undatus (H. undatus) and Actinidia deliciosa (A. deliciosa) in three different solvent extraction; ethanol, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 9,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHypoglycaemic Effects of Dietary Intake of Ripe and Unripe Lycopersicon esculentum (Tomatoes) on Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes Mellitus in RatsA. M. Akinnuga, O. Bamidele, O. A. Ebunlomo et al.Ripe and unripe tomatoes have been implicated in prevention of chronic diseases such as cancer probably due to their antioxidant, antibiotic, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. Problem statement: This study was designed to investigate whether ripe and unripe tomatoes will have hypoglycaemic effect in a chronic disease such as diabetes mellitus that has been characterized with hyperglycaemia. Approach: Twenty albino Wistar … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 24 Mar 2010 · 8,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification and Quantification of Major Carotenoids in Some VegetablesJafar Muhammad EL-QudahAn HPLC study of 6 raw vegetables (Okra, green beans, eggplant zucchini, carrot and tomato) most frequently consumed worldwide was carried out to determine their carotenoid composition. The samples were purchased from supermarket in the city of Boston, USA. Neoxanthin, violaxanthin and lutein were contained in all samples except tomato for neoxanthin, carrot and tomato for violaxanthin and carrot for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 11,131 accessesView PDFCite
