SUBTROPIC PERSIMMON FRUIT – A SOURCE OF ANTIOXIDANTS

Biosafety and Biotechnology, 2023
antioxidants are substances that inhibit oxidation and are able to neutralize the oxidative effect of free radicals. Dietary-derived antioxidants are now increasingly being researched for their positive health effects, including their role in the prevention of various diseases.

Effect of deastringency treatment of intact persimmon fruits on the quality of fresh-cut persimmons

Food Chemistry, 2015
The changes in the quality characteristics of the fresh-cut products prepared from intact 'Cheongdobansi' persimmons treated with different deastringency methods (nontreated, carbon dioxide gas, warm water, ethanol vapour) have been investigated for 6 days at 10 °C. Flesh firmness of the persimmons decreased after ethanol vapour treatment. The decrease

Proanthocyanidin from Persimmon Fruits

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, 1967
AbstractDegradative and other data described below have shown that the tannin of unripe fruits of persimmon (Diospyros virginiana) actually contains (+)‐gallocatechin unit in the structure and must be regarded as condensed flavonoid pigments, probably of similar structure to the polymeric proanthocyanidin from avocado seed.The possible structure of the

Latex-Fruit Anaphylaxis from Persimmon

Journal of Clinical & Experimental Dermatology Research, 2016
Background: Despite rare reports of persimmon anaphylaxis, the association of persimmon with natural rubber latex is low or undetermined, and latex-fruit syndrome presenting with anaphylaxis caused by persimmon has not been reported. Methods: Allergy skin testing were performed for aeroallergens, persimmon and plant foods, including those implicated ...

Effects of CPPU on fruit set and fruit growth in Japanese persimmon

Scientia Horticulturae, 1995
Abstract The effects of hand-pollination and spraying with N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N′-phenylurea (CPPU) on fruit set and fruit growth of ‘Matsumoto-Wase-Fuyu’, which is a member of the pollination-constant, non-astringent group of persimmons (PCNA) were investigated. Staminate flowers of pollinizers in the orchard were eliminated before anthesis. Hand-

Fruit Crops: Persimmon

2016
Mealybugs are known to attack persimmon in Japan,France,Iran,Italy,Israel ,New Zealand California etc. They suck the fruits, and the honeydew causes black knots. Ants are the main transferring factor of the mealybugs and they protect them against predators and parasitoids.

Partial Purification of Latent Persimmon Fruit Polyphenol Oxidase

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2003
Persimmon fruit polyphenol oxidase (PPO) was partially purified using a combination of phase partitioning with Triton X-114 and ammonium sulfate fractionation between 50 and 75%. The enzyme, which showed both monophenolase and diphenolase activities, was partially purified in a latent form and could be optimally activated by the presence of 1 mM sodium

Antioxidant activity of 4 cultivars of persimmon fruit

Food Science and Biotechnology, 2011
In this study, the antioxidant activity of persimmon fruit of 4 different persimmon cultivars cultured at Korea was evaluated. There were 3 astringent persimmon cultivars [‘Bongok’ (BO), Japanese Hatchiya; ‘Cheongdobansi’ (CB); and ‘Dogeunjosaeng’ (DJ), Japanese Tonewase] a 1 non-astringent persimmon cultivar [‘Seochonjosaeng’ (SJ), Japanese ...

A xyloglucan from persimmon fruit cell walls

Phytochemistry, 1998
Persimmon (Diospyros kaki L.) fruit cell walls have been shown to contain a high proportion of xyloglucan. This hemicellulosic polysaccharide appears to play a crucial role in the softening process that accompanies fruit ripening. In the present work, xyloglucan from persimmon fruit cell walls was extracted, purified and chemically characterized from ...

Carotenoids of the fruit of the subtropical persimmon, variety Khachia

Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 1984
The finely ground fruit mass was dewatered with sodium sulfate and ethanol. The pigments were extracted with petroleum ether until the extracts ceased to become colored. The resulting solution of carotenoids was washed with 5% sodium hydroxide solution.
