The date palm has phases of ripening as hababauk, kimri, khalal, rutab, and tamer. Sugar, protein, fat, minerals, ash, pectin, crude fiber, polyphenols and water, the primary components of dates. Products made from date palms include semi-finished and ready-to-use date items as well as products made from date pomace, juice, syrup, spread, and pomace. In the processing of yogurt, date palm pomace powder with concentrations of 10, 20 and 30% was applied. Date palm pomace powder has been shown to improve the chemical properties of yogurt (mineral content, pH, titrable acidity, total solids, ash, fat, protein content, and vitamin C), viscosity and syneresis. Comparisons between sample yogurts supplemented with various amounts of date palm pomace yogurt and plain yogurt were performed (control). The yogurt’s total sugar, protein, fiber, vitamin C, and mineral contents were improved by adding date palm pomace at varied quantities (10, 20 and 30%). Yogurt’s pH and lipid content were significantly lower with the addition of date palm powder. Yogurt that had date palm pomace added to it had greater viscosity and less product syneresis than control yogurt. Additionally, so that we could effectively utilize the date palm byproduct, we produced enriched, one of which was dairy, which is high in dietary fiber, minerals and antioxidants, all of which serve to mitigate the harmful effects of dairy.","PeriodicalId":14539,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Nutrition Sciences and Food Technology","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135929429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

F test and Duncan’s were used for data analysis and mean separation. All calves were raised on natural grazing. Analysis of variance showed that calves birth weight was significantly (p<0.05) affected by parity, with mean birth weights were 21.33 ± 2.65, 23.03 ±2.35 , 26.82 ± 4.15 and 28.30 ± 3.40 Kg for calves born in group A, B, C and D respectively.

Mushrooms are fleshy saprophytic fungi with noticeable fruiting bodies, achlorophylous and large enough to be harvested by hand. Edible mushrooms are highly nutritious and can be used as alternatives to meat, milk and eggs. Mushrooms have a history of economic importance in Africa as food and as medicine serving as good health supplements for the treatment of certain diseases of mankind. Mushrooms like other cultivated vegetable crops are subject to attack by pests and pathogens. Mushrooms in Africa are susceptible to a variety of viral, bacterial and fungal diseases that may affect mushroom yield and quality. Intensive cultivation of edible mushroom is often affected by some fungal and bacterial diseases that frequently cause dramatic losses. Pests and disease problems have higher chances of occurring when mushrooms are grown in one location over a long period of time. These infections are also facilitated by the prevalent conditions such as warm temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide levels and presence of pests under which the mushroom cultivation is carried out. There are other major causes of mushroom diseases besides fungi, bacteria, nematodes, viruses or pests. These are abiotic stress namely nutrient deficiencies, toxic chemicals, improper climatic conditions as well as poor ventilation which cause mushroom abnormalities. Some mushroom diseases are very difficult to control. However, careful farm management and extreme hygiene may prevent major attacks. Moreover, shelf life quality is severely affected by diseases that are still asymptomatic at the time of harvest. Strict maintenance of sanitation and hygiene in the farm helps to control mushroom diseases. Some control measures include the use of disinfectants such as chlorine and the application of selected fungicides. However, this involves significant costs and leaves undesired residues in the ecosystem. Most chemicals that are still allowed have failed to adequately control major mushroom diseases as resistance is easily induced. Other control measures such as bio-control and the use of resistant varieties are suggested good alternatives to chemical control. More research is required to detect the best pesticide-free alternatives for controlling the diseases and pests of mushrooms for the preservation of Africa’s precious heritage, mushrooms.","PeriodicalId":14539,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Nutrition Sciences and Food Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84865267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Layout of field was carried out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) within three replications and comprised of 15 accessions. Laboratory analysis for oil concentration was done in the Department of Food Technology and Quality Control, Kathmandu by Soxhlet apparatus. There was significant variation in oil concentration found among the test accessions. The highest average oil concentration was found in TGX1990- 110FN (17.95%) followed by TGX1989-68FN (17.41%) and TGX1990-106FN (17.31%) while the highest yield was produced by IITA accession TGX1990-52F (4.30t/ha) followed by TGX1989-48FN (3.87t/ha) and TGX1989-45F (3.74t/ha). Correlation between the different yield attributing traits like days to 50% flowering, days to pod setting, days to maturity, plant height, seeds per ten pods, nodes per plant, number of branches and hundred seed weight with the yield was observed. The result showed the significant positive correlation towards the yield. Based on the above mentioned traits and the ranges of oil concentration can be given prime importance to enhance the breeding programs.","PeriodicalId":14539,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Nutrition Sciences and Food Technology","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83560332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A sample of 238 adults aged from 18 to 65 years residing in Mbouda completed an oral health survey to assess the factors associated to OHRQOL. The means and standard deviations of the OHIP-14 index were calculated and associated to individual and environmental factors and biological functions.
