Mangifera

Mango fruits (Mangifera indica) were kept in carton boxes whose top surface was covered with either chitosan film or with low-density polyethylene (positive control) and stored at room temperature (27 1 °C at 65% RH). The CO2 and O2 levels measured on day 3 were 23-26% and 3-6%, and at the...

The Indo-Pacific rain forest is the mother ground of the banana Musa spp.), mango (Mangifera indica), chewing gum (fi-om Dyera costulata), and many spices (Table 13.1).With the advent of freezers, the spices have lost much importance as food preservatives, but their culinary role remains, albeit undermined by the fest food industry. Spices span a large variety of stmctures, from small isoprenoids to shikimates. 

Octadecylsilyl stationary phases with hydrophilic endcapping have been developed for the separation of very polar analytes, which are not sufficiently retained on conventional reversed-phase columns. Among numerous other applications, they have been demonstrated to be suitable for the separation of flavonol and xanthone glycosides from mango Mangifera indica, Anacardiaceae) peels. °...

Mango (Mangifera foetida) is a tropical fruit native of South Asia. It is a food constituent of a number of desserts (smoothies, ice cream, fruit bars, sweet chili sauce, and many others) or as a component in fresh fruit combinations. In addition to many healthy vitamins, oligoelements, and other health-beneficial compounds, it carries some proteinaceous allergens with symptoms... 

Two species, chir (Pinus roxburghii Sargent.) size 7.5 x 2.75 x 1.25 cm3and mango (Mangifera indica Linn.) size 7.5 x 1.25 x 1.25 cm3 were studied to establish different reaction variables. Four replicates were taken for each treatment and experiments were carried out with oven-dried samples except in case of those where effect of moisture content was studied. Samples were placed in a reaction chamber and reaction was carried out under reflux conditions at 93+1 C, the boiling point of thioacetic acid. Experimental set-up for vapor phase acetylation is shown in Figure 1.

Natural products can be used as plant extracts with pharmacological activity (e.g., Mangifera indica L., vallerian, aloe, Cratoxylum pruniflorum, microporous zeolite), excipient for direct compression or granulation (chitin, chitosan, and dextran), and controlled-release systems (cellulose and native dextran). For natural products the most important factor is the standardization of the extract because properties such as the amount of active substance can be changed from batch to batch. Factors such as the origin of the extract, geographic zone, and age of the tree could affect the properties of natural extracts.
