Assessment of metabolic, mineral, and cytotoxic profile in pineapple leaves of different commercial varieties: A new eco-friendly and inexpensive source of bioactive compounds.

Food Research International, 2022
Pineapple is among the most produced and consumed fruits worldwide, and consequently, its agroindustrial production/processing generates high amounts of agricultural waste, which are routinely discarded.

Synergistic action of multiple degumming-related enzymes secreted by Bacillus subtilis XW-18: Decisive factor for driving the bio-degumming process of raw pineapple leaves.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
Degumming, a process of removing gummy substances surrounding fiber, plays a crucial role in preparing plant fibers. This study clearly clarified that the multiple degumming enzymes by Bacillus subtilis XW-18 acted as a decisive factor for driving bio ...

Pyrophosphate-dependent 6-phosphofructokinase, a new glycolytic enzyme in pineapple leaves

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1979
Abstract Pineapple leaves contain a pyrophosphate-dependent 6-phosphofructokinase which has been partially purified and characterized. In crude extracts the pyrophosphate-dependent activity is 10 to 20-fold higher than the ATP-dependent activity. The partially purified activity is near 2.5 μmol Fru-1,6- P 2 formed/min/mg protein.

Pineapple leaves based activated carbon for efficient removal of reactive black 5 in aqueous

, 2021
Adsorption by activated carbon (AC) has been recognized and widely used in the dye wastewater treatment. Due to the effectiveness of AC, researchers have started to focus on developing AC from renewable sources, which is abundant and cheap. This research

PRE- AND POSTHARVEST METABOLISM OF CROWN LEAVES OF PINEAPPLE FRUIT

Acta Horticulturae, 2011
Crown burn on exported pineapple fruit causes serious economical losses. In this study, crown burn occurrence was hypothesized to be related to Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM). However, the functioning of this metabolism in the crown leaves remained unexplored.

Characterization and evaluation of the adsorption of uremic toxins through the pyrolysis of pineapple leaves and peels and by forming a bio-complex with sodium alginate.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
This study was performed to develop an optimal process for manufacturing activated carbon (AC) from pineapples' off-cuts (leaves and peels; PL and PP) by pyrolysis and for forming a bio-complex with sodium alginate (CA).

ON PARAMETRIC STUDY OF FLUID LEAVES AND FLUID PINEAPPLE

International Journal of Fluid Mechanics Research
Liquid chain is a commonly known phenomenon, and it is found to be formed under free fall or due to impact of liquid on surface. Usually, these liquid chains have rim and lamina, which are explained by instabilities. In this article, we examined a variant of liquid chain and carried a parametric study experimentally. Since this phenomenon is reason for
