“…3 and the national average waste is only 50%, India is losing Rs 214 crore worth of food every year", (Sundarraj et al, 2018). Appropriate methods to convert these wastes into value-added products will serve the dual purpose of environmental protection and value addition (Sundarraj & Ranganathan, 2017). Cellulose could be a valuable by-product that can be obtained from these wastes which might be extensively employed in the food trade (Raj & Ranganathan, 2018).…”

In the present study, cellulose was extracted from de-pectinated peel of Jackfruit. The peel was treated with alkali followed by a chemical process treatment. In present study, yield of jackfruit cellulose was 27g / 100g. The average particle size and zeta potential value of extracted cellulose is 0.730nm and -15.7mV respectively. Further, morphological characterization was carried out by using scanning microscopy. FTIR spectroscopy analysis revealed the presence of major absorptions indicative of cellulose and hemicellulose. The thermal profiles of the residual waste occurred in a minimum three steps, which representing the degradation profiles of hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin * Corresponding author

“…Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy of peel indicated the presence of major minerals like calcium, potassium and other minor minerals. All these findings implied the availability of various active and phytochemical compounds and also some minerals from the peel [3]. The peel extract exhibited the highest total phenolic and total flavonoid content, and the phenolics was 4.65, 4.12 and 4.95 times higher than that of pulp, flake and seed extract, respectively.…”

Insects are known as pests at home which can lower the quality of food for human. There are insects that destroy the quality of farm harvest, thereby decreasing its palatability and marketability. One of the very well-known insects pests is the rice weevils (Sitophilus oryzae) which damages the quality of rice grain and lowers its market value. This study seeks to find out what concentration of Jackfruit Peel Ethanol Extract (JPEE) will give the highest mortality in 1.2 hours of observation. Experimental research method with four treatments, and twenty (rice weevils) samples/treatment, was used to gather pertinent data on this study. Jackfruit Peel was oven dried, grounded, macerated in 70% ethanol for 3 days and subjected to rotary evaporation. Different concentrations of Jackfruit Peel ethanol extract, (JPEE) was done. T-(control), 0% JPEE, T1, 25% JPEE, T2, 50% JPEE and T3, 75% JPEE. Data on mortality for 1.2 hours with 20 minutes interval, was analyzed using Analysis of Variance and Fisher Least Significant Difference (LSD) Test as post hoc Test. Result revealed significant difference on the means of four treatments. It is imperative that rice weevils in T3 (750% of Jackfruit Peel Ethanol Extract) gave highest mortality in 1.2 hours, when exposed to JPEE. ANOVA revealed significant difference at 5% level of significance. Fisher LSD showed significant difference on control and treatments with JPEE. No significant differences exist among treatment with JPEE, which implies that any of the three treatment with JPEE can control rice weevils at 1.2 hours of observation. It shows that JPEE is a potential source of insecticide particularly for rice weevils.

Tempesquistle tree (Sideroxylon palmeri) belongs to family Sapotaceae, and its fruits contain hydrophilic and hydrophobic gums. Aim of this study was to develop an extraction method for pectin, a hydrophilic gum, from green and ripe tempesquistle fruit. The extraction method was gentle to minimize potential structural changes in pectin, a maceration was used, and then pectin precipitation was induced with acetone at room temperature. Pectin characterization was carried out in two steps. The first step consisted of qualitative tests of Molisch, Fehling and Lugol. The second step consisted of quantitative tests to determine esterification degree (ED) by ATR-FTIR and D-galacturonic acid (D-GalA) content with a colorimetric assay. ATR-FTIR spectroscopic method revealed that green and ripe tempesquistle fruit have an ED of 0% and 30.4%, respectively. Both fruit have a low ED pectin. The content of D-GalA in green and ripe pectins was 18.8 ±2.7% and 20.2 ±0.6%, respectively. The yield obtained in green and ripe fruit samples was 1.6 ±0.2% and 3.0 ±0.1%, respectively. The extraction method allowed two types of pectins obtained in function of maturity stage of tempesquistle fruit distinguishable by ATR-FTIR.
