Aflatoxin contamination level in Iran’s pistachio nut during years 2009–2011
Modelling Aspergillus flavus growth and aflatoxins production in pistachio nuts
Aflatoxins (AFs) are the main contaminants in pistachio nuts. AFs production in pistachio has been attributed to Aspergillus flavus. The aim of this study was to apply existing models to predict growth and AFs production by an A. flavus isolated from pistachios as a function of moisture content and storage temperature of pistachios in order […]

Carcass performance and meat mineral content in Balouchi lamb fed pistachio by-products
This experiment investigated the effect of pistachio by-products (PB) in the feed of weaned Balouchi lambs on their daily gain, carcass traits and on the levels of Ca, Zn, Fe and Cu of Longissimus dorsi muscle. Twenty eight male lambs were divided into four groups with 7 lambs each and fed separately for 90 days. […]
