TL;DR: In this article, the physical properties of cumin seed were evaluated as a function of moisture content, and the average length, breadth and thickness were 5·61, 1·77 and 1·55 mm respectively.

TL;DR: Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) of fresh produce relies on the modification of atmosphere inside the package achieved by the natural interplay between two processes: the respiration rates of the commodity and the permeability of the packaging films as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this review, the chemical constituents, biological activities, effects of processing, and future potential of black pepper and piperine have been discussed thoroughly.

TL;DR: Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-gracum) is one of the most promising medicinal herbs, known from ancient times, having nutritional value too and it is used as food stabilizer, adhesive and emulsifying agent due its fibre, protein and gum content.

TL;DR: In this article, two different models based on regression analysis and enzyme kinetics were used to predict the respiration rate under given conditions, and the results showed good agreement with the experimentally estimated respiration rates, though the model based on enzymatic kinetic with Arrhenius type temperature dependence was found to have closer agreement than the other model studied.
