Background: Durian (Durio zibethinus Murr) is a very popular fruit in Indonesia. People consume durian flesh because it has high nutritional value and delicious taste, while the durian skin and seeds are thrown away as waste. Durian seed flour contains quite a lot of starch, so it can be used as a filling ingredient for salami. The purpose of this study was to determine the physicochemical and microbiological quality of salami using durian seed flour as a filler. Methods: The research has been successfully carried out using a completely randomized design with five treatments P0(0%), P1(5%), P2(10%), P3(15%), P4(20%) each treatment was repeated 4 times. Parameters measured include physical and chemical and microbiology. The data used by ANOVA and continued with the Tukey test. Result: The research results show that the cooking losses decreased from 24.48%-8.31% and #39; Water Holding Capacity increased from 27.78%-51.97%; Softness increases from 13.94-22.39 mm/g/10 seconds. While the chemical quality of the water content increased from 40.46%-44.84%; Fat decreased from 19.95-13.75%; Protein decreased from 24.90-20.74%; Carbohydrates increased from 40.46-44.84%; Microbiological such as pH 4.07-4.08; Total Plate Count decreased from 3.57 ´ 10 3 CFU/gram - 3.038 ´ 10 3 CFU/gram. The study concluded that Durian seed flour cat a level of 15% could be used as a filler which improved the physicochemical and microbiological quality of salami.

Background: Adadiya is a milk-pulse based sweet traditionally manufactured in the Gujarat state, which combines goodness of milk solids, black gram and spices. Sensory attributes of most preferred adadiya possess rich flavour of spices, resembles brown to dark brown colour, coarse texture embedded with small pieces of almonds and cashew. In present study, process for manufacture of adadiya was developed and formulation was optimized. Methods: Brief method of preparation involves heating of dehulled black gram coarse flour along with ghee with continuous stirring, followed by the addition of khoa and further heating till desired colour is obtained. The mixture is then cooled and added with sugar syrup, edible gum, nuts and spices. Result: Optimum formulation of adadiya contained 89.9% ghee, 30% khoa and 117.8% sugar syrup (73o Bx), on flour basis, which gave overall acceptability score of 8.31 on a 9-point hedonic scale. Vacuum packed adadiya samples remained acceptable on 30th day of storage with overall acceptability score of 8.14. Consumer survey indicated wide acceptability of adadiya among consumers with rated score of ≥ 8 on a 9-point hedonic scale.

Background: Blood biochemistry and reference intervals assist in distinguishing between healthy and productive camels as well as providing information for nutritional conditions, evaluation and monitoring when they are allowed to browse naturally; nevertheless, these intervals are frequently collected from animals of varying ages. The nutritional condition and biochemical markers of dromedary camels in pastoral systems in southern Ethiopia were investigated in this study, which took season, animal status, age and environmental variables into consideration. Methods: A total of 36 camels were divided into three groups based on their age ( greater than 8 years, 5-8 years, or less than 5 years) and productive state (milking, pregnant and young) in two environments (two herds in arid and semi-arid areas). Blood samples were collected from animals’ neck jugular veins, centrifuged and frozen for analysis. The samples were centrifuged (3000 rpm for 10 min) immediately after their arrival at the laboratory. Serum concentrations of glucose, protein, urea, creatinine, triglycerides and cholesterol were measured using spectrophotometry. Result: This study shows that glucose (91.33+7.30 mg/dl), total protein (7.17+0.15 mg/dl) and triglyceride (75.28+5.38 mg/dl) concentrations were significantly higher (P less than 0.05) during the rainy season, whereas urea (32.06+1.18 mg/l) and creatinine levels were significantly higher during the dry season. The study reveals increased glucose, total protein and triglyceride concentrations in camels during the rainy season, while urea and creatinine levels were higher during the dry season. Arid camels had lower serum concentrations of total protein and urea. Milking and pregnant camels had lower total serum protein, triglyceride and cholesterol levels.

Background: The red-colored tomatoes are characterised as a mine of lycopene to manufacture food grade ingredient and projected its placement in a specialty class where nutrient with pharmaceutical value justifies dietary status. Tomato lycopene has justified its status as a potential antioxidant compensating with nutraceutical importance and provided an option for endorsing specialty nutrition. The diversity epidemiological experiments recorded noteworthy modulations in lipid profile and projected risk reduction potential of lycopene against non-communicable diseases. The progressive research efforts to monitor haematological parameters to justify efficacy of tomato lycopene against adverse effects on wellbeing of human body is required for precision governance. The present research work aims to assess the potential of lycopene rich tomato puree in monitoring the haematological parameters in hyperlipidemic Wistar rats. Methods: Wistar rats (Healthy control, high fat diet fed, HFD-Stain treated and HFD-tomato puree treated) were examined for physiological, haematological and blood biochemical parameters on 0, 14 and 28th day of experiment to assess effect of tomato puree administration on wellbeing of rats against healthy, hyperlipidemic and standard drug status. Result: The increased haemoglobin and total erythrocyte count on 14th and 28th day of experiment justifies the erythropoiesis stimulatory effect of tomato puree lycopene. Moreover, increased total leukocyte count in high fat diet-tomato puree fed rats on 14th and 28th day validates the positive effect of tomato puree lycopene to monitor healthiness in Wistar rats. The regulatory mechanism based on haematological specialty features that monitors the risk of physiological disorders and diseases outlined through animal study experimental data provided a logistic option to confirm the efficacy of tomato puree lycopene to protect wellbeing/healthiness of live entity (Wistar rats).

Background: Four cultivars of cowpea NCK-15-01, NCK-15-05, NCK-15-08 and NCK-15-09 had been chosen for analysis in experiment. The raw cowpeas have been amassed from Pulse Research Station, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari. Methods: After collection, samples were analysed under three exceptional processed states like raw, pressure cooking and sprouting. For the study the analysis of variance of the observed data was done using factorial complete randomized design (Factorial concept). The observations for every parameter had been taken with three repetitions. The critical difference at 5% level of the significance was worked out to compare the treatment means. Among the biochemical parameters some nutrient compositions like crude protein, albumin, globulin, prolamine, glutelin, total soluble sugar, crude fat, antioxidant activity, moisture content and crude fiber were analysed using standard methods. Result: The existing study found that, the cultivar NCK-15-09 contained maximum amount of albumin, prolamine, crude fat, antioxidant activity and crude fiber whereas NCK-15-08 showed highest quantity of crude protein and glutelin. NCK-15-05 had highest amount of globulin and NCK-15-01 is the richest cultivar for total soluble sugar, moisture content.The genotype NCK-15-09 confirmed the highest globulin content (4.84%) in sprouting treatment. Among the different cooking methods, the pressure cooking revealed highest crude protein (23.04%), albumin (3.93%), prolamine (4.04%), glutelin (5.41%), total soluble sugar (58.12 mg/g) and moisture content (12.25%). The highest crude fiber content was determined in sprouting (3.39%).

Background: Papaya is a climacteric fruit which is highly perishable due to rapid ripening and softening and susceptibility to biotic or abiotic stresses, resulting in large losses during storage. Traditionally, people resort to the application of synthetic chemical fungicides on to the crop plant and to the fruits during storage, to control the anthracnose caused by the fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides on fruits. But their repeated use has caused resistance in microorganisms and toxicity for humans. Hence, nowadays there has been increasing interest in using natural alternatives instead of chemical treatment. Methods: Fruits of papaya variety Surya collected at fully mature green stage were subjected to different postharvest management practices namely precooling, surface sanitization, treatment with chitosan and were packaged in corrugated fibre board boxes and stored till the end of shelf life under ambient condition. Untreated fruits (control) were also used in the study. Result: Fruits coated with chitosan (1%) registered an improved shelf life of 6.33 days as against 4.33 days in control in ambient storage and it further improved the sensory score for all the organoleptic parameters, after six days of storage. 1% chitosan coating also reported significantly lowest physiological loss in weight (3.51 %), ion leakage (60.47%), total soluble solids (12.13 °Brix), total carotenoids (2.34 mg 100g-1), total sugar (7.26%) and reducing sugar (6.34%) and least disease index (16.67%), bacterial count (22.33 cfu/ml × 106) and fungal count (7.33 cfu/ml × 103) after three days of storage when compared with control.

This study was conducted in East Shoa Zone, Oromia Region, Ethiopia, to determine serum minerals of dairy cows at different season. The mineral assessed were Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Phosphors (P), Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Cobalt (Co) and Zinc (Zn). The district and the production systems were selected purposively. A total of two hundred forty blood samples were collected. Blood serum was collected, digested and analyzed for minerals, using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer and Photoelectric colorimeter. The mean serum calcium level was 0.080 vs 0.082g/L for lactating and 0.090, vs 0.081gm/L for dry cows in both seasons, in Ada’a and Adama district, which was mean serum calcium level was very close to critical level (CL) or said to borderline. The mean serum phosphorus was 0.037vs 0.039 g/L) for lactating and 0.038 vs 0.037 gm/L for dry cows in both season in study districts. In general, in addition to Ca limited number of dairy cows were deficient for P, Cu and co. The difference in mean serum magnesium was significant (P less than 0.05) by production system, physiological state of the animals with seasons. Similarly, the difference in serum copper level was statistically significant (p less than 0.05) based on physiology of cows, production system and season. Iron serum concentration showed a significant difference (P less than 0.05) by season, physiology and production system. In case of Zinc and cobalt serum concentration showed a significant difference (p less than 0.05) between production system, physiological stat and season. It could be concluded that in the study area most serum minerals of dairy cows were either below the critical level or very near to the critical level. The variation in serum level of measured mineral was also significant in many cases. Therefore, it is necessary to supplement these deficient minerals to the ration of dairy cows to improve production, productivity, health and reproduction efficiency.

Similarly, the difference in serum copper level was statistically significant (p less than 0.05) based on physiology of cows, production system and season. Iron serum concentration showed a significant difference (P less than 0.05) by season, physiology and production system. In case of Zinc and cobalt serum concentration showed a significant difference (p less than 0.05) between production system, physiological stat and season. It could be concluded that in the study area most serum minerals of dairy cows were either below the critical level or very near to the critical level. The variation in serum level of measured mineral was also significant in many cases. Therefore, it is necessary to supplement these deficient minerals to the ration of dairy cows to improve production, productivity, health and reproduction efficiency.","PeriodicalId":8485,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Dairy and Food Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141216448","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}
