All‐Carbon Electrode Directly Derived from Wax Gourd for Supercapacitor

physica status solidi (a), 2019
Here an efficient preparation of porous carbon monolith by freeze drying of wax gourd and following carbonization without any activating processes is reported. The obtained porous carbon monolith features high specific surface area, low density, and excellent mechanical strength.

Serine Proteinase Inhibitor from Wax Gourd (Benincasa hispida[Thunb] Cogn.) Seeds

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2006
Two squash family protease inhibitors were obtained from wax gourd (Benicasa hispida [Thunb] Cogn.). Even though they were distinctly separated by reversed-phase chromatography, the amino acid sequences of two inhibitors were identical. Both inhibitors were converted into each other, perhaps due to cis-trans isomerization of characteristic Pro in the C-

Bio-protective potential of lactic acid bacteria isolated from fermented wax gourd

Folia Microbiologica, 2012
The antifungal activities of 85 lactic acid bacteria strains isolated from fermented wax gourd against the four fungal species, Penicillium oxalicum, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus sydowii, and Mucor racemosus, were determined. Inhibitory activity against at least one or more fungal species was observed with 27 Weissella cibaria and 11 Weissella ...

Synthesis of a three-dimensional interconnected carbon nanorod aerogel from wax gourd for amperometric sensing

Microchimica Acta, 2018
The authors describe a method for synthesis of a three-dimensional (3D) interconnected carbon nanorod aerogel (3D-ICNA) starting from wax gourd (Benincasa hispida) which is a low-cost biomass. The 3D-ICNA possesses unique 3D interconnected and porous nanostructure, with abundant edge-plane-like defective sites, a large specific surface area (823 m2 g-1)

Chemical compositions and cryo-adhesive probing of the epicuticular wax crystals on fruit surface of wax gourd (Benincasa hispida)

Food Chemistry
Surface wax crystals play important roles in protecting plants from pest and disease invasions, and UV irradiation. The wax crystals are less probed individually from the fruit surfaces. Herein the morphologies, chemicals and an efficient method to sample the wax blooms of white wax gourd were addressed. Various crystalloids such as rodlets, platelets,

Genetic analysis and QTL mapping of fruit-related traits in wax gourd (Benincasa hispida)

Euphytica, 2018
As an important fruit vegetable, fruit-related traits have become one of the breeding hotspots of wax gourd (Benincasa hispida). The fruit traits have an important role on the quality and yield of wax gourd, and QTL mapping of these traits will provide solid basis for fruit character improvement as well as high-yield breeding.

Ash gourd peel wax: Extraction, characterization, and application as an edible coat for fruits

Food Science and Biotechnology, 2011
Ash gourd (Benincasa hispida Cogn) is a vegetable used in Asian countries and the peel contains high edible waxy materials. This paper reports extraction, characterization, and utilization of ash gourd peel wax as an edible coating in fruits; with strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) as a model system. Crude wax had melting point of 80°C and molecular weight
