The role of the embryo and ethylene in avocado fruit mesocarp discoloration [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2009 Chilling injury (CI) symptoms in avocado (Persea americana Mill.) fruit, expressed as mesocarp discoloration, were found to be associated with embryo growth and ethylene production during cold storage. In cvs Ettinger and Arad most mesocarp discoloration was located close to the base of the seed and was induced by ethylene treatment in seeded avocado ...

Oxalate content of palm fruit mesocarp
Biochemical Systematics and Ecology, 1994 Abstract Fruit mesocarp of 60 species of palms were analyzed for total oxalate content. All species contained some oxalate, but concentrations varied widely among the seven palm tribes studied. Fruit oxalate concentrations were consistently low in the Phoeniceae, Borasseae, Lepidocaryeae and Cocoeae, high in the Hyophorbeae, Caryoteae and ...

Evaluation of acute toxicity of babassu mesocarp in mice [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Farmacognosia, 2011 The safety of babassu mesocarp (Orbignya phalerata Mart., Arecaceae), which exhibited anti-inflammatory and antithrombotic activities, was evaluated by determining the potential acute toxicity in mice. A lyophilized ethanol extract of babassu mesocarp (BME) was administered to C3H/HePas mice (10/group) in a single dose of 1000, 3000 and 5000 mg/kg, by ...

Babassu mesocarp flour in diet of finishing lambs [PDF]
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2018 Twenty crossbred lambs (21.6 ± 3.5 kg BW) were used in a completely randomised design to determine the effects of babassu mesocarp flour (BMF) on performance and ingestive behaviour. The treatments were defined by the increase in concentrations (0, 10, 20 or 30%, in DM basis) of BMF in the diet.
