CH3-[CH2],8-C00H. M.p. 75 C. A fatty acid occurring as glycerides in peanut and other vegetable oils. [Pg.40]

C12H24O, CH3 [CH,]io COOH. Needles, m.p. 44 C, b.p. 225"C/I00mm. A fatty acid occurring as glycerides in milk, spermaceti, laurel oil, coconut oil, palm oil and other vegetable oils. The metal salts are widely used. [Pg.236]

Functional properties of canola protein products can be improved by succinylation (130,131). Controlled acetylation can reduce undesirable phenoHc constituents as well (132). However, antinutrients in canola and other vegetable protein products such as glucosinolates, phytic acid, and phenoHc compounds have severely limited food appHcations of these products. [Pg.470]

Indicator plants generally have an offensive odor, which varies with the selenium concentration. Other vegetable matter grown on seleniferous soils may have a sufficiently high selenium content to be toxic when ingested by animals or humans. Apart from appearance in these seleniferous plants, selenium has been considered as a variable contaminant. Selenium is a necessary micronutrient in living organisms, needed by humans as well as animals (see Mineral NUTHiENTs). [Pg.327]

Palm oil[8002-75-3] is derived from the fleshy fmit of the palm tree rather than the nut as with palm kernel oil. Palm oil has a longer chain length distribution than palm kernel oil and provides properties and compositions more similar to tallow than to other vegetable oils (see Table 1). [Pg.151]

Most staple foods such as meat, white bread, potatoes and other vegetables, and most fmits are not artificially colored siace their natural appearance is perfecdy acceptable. Foods are usually colored because they have no natural color of their own, because their natural color was destroyed or drastically altered as a result of processiag or storage, or because their color varies greatly with the season of the year or their geographic origin. Thus, colorants are added to foods to make them appear the way the customer wants and expects them to appear. [Pg.440]

Cellulosic materials, such as wood, in their different forms (i.e., wood flour and wood pulp), cotton, shell flours, ground com cobs, and other vegetable by-products or agro-wastes are used as the source of cellulosic raw materials for the plastic industry [29,56], at least as... [Pg.582]

Onions must not be stored too long at the high humidity of other vegetables, or they will rot. [Pg.168]

Onions and garlic are susceptible to moist conditions, which encourage mould growth, and are stored at humidities of 65-70%. It is not possible to store these together with other vegetables for more than a very short time. [Pg.202]

However, unless the test is applied very soon after blanching, the results obtained may lead to misinterpretation and unnecessary product rejection. Peas and other vegetables yielding negative tests soon after blanching have been observed on subsequent standing and prior to freezing to yield positive reactions. This condition has been observed to carry over in the frozen and stored product. [Pg.33]

Residues in many foods should decrease because EPA has canceled many of the food crop uses of methyl parathion, including fruits and vegetables commonly eaten by children, some other vegetable uses, some feed uses, and all nonfood uses such as ornamental plants and nursery stock uses. Tolerances for methyl parathion on these foods and feed also have been canceled. This action was taken because of a concern for risks to children and workers. Some food and feed uses and tolerances are to be maintained. [Pg.32]

Carrots (Daucus carota) are excellent sources of (3-carotene and vitamin A, although they have been reported to exert low antioxidant activity compared to some other vegetables (Al-Saikhan and others 1995 Cao and others 1996 Ramarathnam and others 1997 Vinson and others 1998 Beom and others 1998). However, boiling carrots for 30 min significantly improved their antioxidant activity toward coupled oxidation of (3-carotene and linolenic acid (Gazzani and others 1998). [Pg.30]

Increased yields of various crops occur when copper salts are added to fertilizers at 300 to 800 mg Cu/m3 (NAS 1977). In com (Zea mays) and other vegetables, younger plants are more sensitive to copper deficiency than mature plants in all cases, copper-deficient vegetables show chlorosis, reduced growth and reproduction, and low survival (Gupta 1979). [Pg.172]

Zinc concentrations in forest plants vary considerably. In oaks (Quercus spp.), for example, some species are accumulators, whereas others may be termed discriminators. For individual species, zinc concentrations tend to follow the pattern of roots > foliage > branch > trunk (Van Hook et al. 1980). Small lateral roots accumulate Zn to much greater levels than other vegetation components and are probably most sensitive to changes in zinc inputs. Half-time persistence of zinc in forest ecosystems varies from about 3 years in organic matter components to >200 years for large soil pools (Van Hook et al. 1980). [Pg.651]
