Studies on Extraction of Bioflavonoids from Seeds of Cucumis melo
Abstract: Cucumis melo belongs to Cucurbitaceae family. It contains high-content of bioflavonoids (quercetin and rutin) and phenolic compounds. It shows various pharmacological activities like anti-cancer, anti-oxidant, anti-ulcer, anti-diabetic, anti-helminthic. In this research, the optimization of physico-chemical parameters like effects of different solvents, solvent percentages, pH, extraction time and particle mesh size for the extraction of bioflavanoids from seeds of Cucumis melo have been studied. For the extraction of quercetin, the optimum …

Development and Effectiveness of Lipid–Polysaccharide Conglomerated Composite Edible Coating to Enhance Postharvest Life of Whole Muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) var. Ravi
Abstract: Lipids can be combined with polysaccharides to create conglomerated composite edible coatings in which the components are interspersed throughout the coating. An experimental lipid–polysaccharide conglomerated composite (LPCC) edible coating was developed from lipids (vegetable oils and resins) and polysaccharides (gum Arabic, CMC). Whole muskmelons (var. Ravi) were coated with LPCC edible coating by spraying method and stored at 12±2 ºC with 90–95% relative humidity. The effectiveness of LPCC edible coating …
