Title : Juice extraction and quality evaluation of malbhog harichal and athiya varieties of banana Material Type: printed text Authors: A Mishra, Author ; M B. Shrestha, Author ; C Bhattarai, Author ; M Paudel, Author Pagination: 148-153 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Matured banana of varieties Malbhog, Harichal and Athiya were collected from Chitwan, Balkhu and Dharan, respectively. Combs separated from bunch were allowed for ripening. During ripening, average pH and acidity (%) were observed daily till fully ripened and was found increased gradually with different treatments for ripening. The average pH, acidity and TSS of ripened Malbhog, Harichal and Athiya were found 4.5, 0.684 and 21.53, 4.44, 0.7538 and 20.76 and 4.7, 0.4422 and 25.63, respectively. Analysis for moisture content was recorded to be 70.25, 71.72 and 68.65%; total sugar was recorded as 18.43, 17.24 and 20.36%; protein as 1.44, 1.10 and 1.62%; pectin as 0.95, 0.73 and 0.85%; crude fiber as 0.38, 0.39 and 0.66%, respectively. Ash was recorded as 0.89, 0.96 and 1.15%; vitamin C as 15.74, 12.09 and 11.88 mg/100 g; iron 0.4, 0.55 and 0.72 mg/100 g; calcium 11.96, 12.10 and 18.34 mg/100 g; phosphorus 0.31, 0.28 and 0.26 mg/100 g; and fat 0.39, 0.43 and 0.30%, respectively. In addition, ripened banana, juice was extracted by using pectinase enzyme incubating at 32°C for 2 hours followed by squeezing. The juice was then clarified, filled in glass bottle, sealed, pasteurized and stored for self life observation. Sensory evaluation of all juices was carried out according to hedonic rating method and liked by majority of panelists. The pasteurized juice was found in good sensorial condition up to 6 months.

Title : Performance of Organic Orthodox Tea (Camellia sinensis) genotypes in Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Shrestha, R.L., Author ; Subba, N., Author ; M B. Shrestha, Author ; Jha, A.K., Author Pagination: 213-217 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: A total of 12 existing tea genotypes were evaluated at Agriculture Research Station, Pakhribas, Dhankuta in 2010 and 2011. On the basis of two years' data, the highest production of green tea leaves (1701 kg/ha) and made tea (405 kg/ha) was found in the genotype Tinali, and the lowest production green leaf tea (363 kg/ha) and made tea (13.4 kg/ha) was found in Banokbarna-157. Average productivity of tea genotypes were found 1526 kg/ha for green leaf tea and 401.5 kg/ha for made tea. Percentage of dry tea from green tea was 26.3% where as highest 30.4% was found in Tagda-135. Highest caffeine (4.17%) was observed in Ghumti selection and highest crude fiber (12.30%) was observed in Tagda-135. The results showed that the highest tea was produced by Tinali and the highest percentage of made tea was produced by Tagda-135 genotype.

Title : Quality parameters assessment of orthodox and green tea production in Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: M B. Shrestha, Author ; M. J. Thapa, Author ; Bhandari, R.C., Author ; K Rana, Author Pagination: 264-268 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Green tea, orthodox tea leaves, tasting, withering, Abstract: Grades of orthodox and green tea produced by different processors were analyzed using different quality parameters. Chemical constituents were found to be varied among different processors as well as among different grades of same processors. The ash content varied from 5.37 to 7.44 percent, water soluble ash from 48.49 to 70.62 percent, acid insoluble ash from 0.01 to 0.52 percent, alkalinity of soluble ash from 1.35 to 2.25 percent and hot water extract from 1.92 to 4.85 percent. Some tea samples were found to be sub-standard as compared to the specifications of Nepal standard for tea. Among the different samples analyzed for the chemical parameters, five samples were found to have higher crude fiber, one sample had lower caffeine content and lower hot water extract in addition to higher crude fiber content. All other samples were found to meet the specifications of Nepal standard for tea
