It is a cousin of the Korean Melon but with larger sizing and a lot sweeter taste. They also have a large seed cavity in the center filled with edible seeds. Their flavor profile is reminiscent of cantaloupe, pear and banana flavors. They are popular in Asia because they hold up well when cooked. Their convenient, smaller, size makes them easy to handle. Gaya Melons 6-7ct case A newer hybrid melon developed in Japan. The Ivory colored melon has a pure white, thin skin with occasional green streaking; the interior fruit is also white. Gayas melons are somewhat sweet and have a flavor reminiscent of a juicy pear and banana mix. Gaya Melons have a very long shelf life when stored in the home fruit crisper. They are a product of Mexico. .

Oleic, palmitic the world which is often discarded after eating the fruit. and stearic acid are also present in small quantities [3]. Researches show that these seeds contain nutrients like protein, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. Oil Various researches report the positive effect of watermelon content in the seeds is between 35-40% and the unsaturated seed oil over skin. The oil is light, consists of humectants and fatty acid content in oil is 78-86% predominantly linoleic acid moisturising properties. It is easily absorbed by skin and (45-73%). This oil is effective for skin care as it is light, easily helps in restoring the elasticity of skin. Due to these absorbable and has humectants properties. Our study is about attributes this oil can be used in cosmetic industry for extraction of watermelon seed oil by solvent extraction process production of skin care products. The watermelon seed oil with the use of different solvents, its analysis and application can also be used as an anti inflammatory agent [4].

KALAHARI MELON SEED Cold Pressed
Tel: +27(0)83 303 8253 ADDRESS: Vlakbult Tel: +27(0)827893035 PO Box 35 Clocolan [email protected] 9735 South Africa KALAHARI MELON SEED Cold pressed oil LATIN NAME: Citrullus lanatus INCI NAME: Citrullus lanatus (watermelon) seed oil OTHER NAMES: Karkoer, Mankataan, Tshamma, Ootanga White Watermelon, Wild Melon, Wild Watermelon CAS Nr: 90063-94-8 SOURCE: Cold pressed from the seed. COLOUR Colourless to very light yellow-green colour AROMA Very subtle neutral odour CULTIVATION: Commercially grown ORIGEN: South Africa It is the biological ancestor of the watermelon, which is now found all over the world, but which originated in the Kalahari region of Southern Africa. Unlike the common watermelon, whose flesh is sweet and red, the Kalahari melon’s flesh is pale yellow or green, and tastes OVERVIEW bitter. It is a creeping annual herb. The Kalahari melon has hairy stems, forked tendrils and three-lobed hairy leaves. Its flowers are bright yellow. The fruits vary significantly, from small and round in the wild, to larger and more oblong- shaped under cultivation. The surface is smooth, pale green with irregular bands of mottled darker green radiating from the stalk. The flesh is a pale green or yellow, and contains numerous brown seeds. In its wild form, the fruit is bitter to bland in taste, and largely inedible when fresh. The Kalahari melon or edible tsamma is ‘sweet' and highly adapted to surviving drought and the harsh light of the desert environment. Although found all over Southern Africa, it is most closely associated with the Kalahari sands of Namibia, Botswana, south-western Zambia and Bushmans eating Kalahari western Zimbabwe.

Pyrolysis Kinetics of Melon (Citrullus Colocynthis L.) Seed Husk
Pyrolysis kinetics of Melon (Citrullus colocynthis L.) seed husk Bemgba Bevan Nyakuma Centre for Hydrogen Energy, Institute of Future Energy, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, 81310 UTM Skudai, Johor Bahru, Malaysia. *Corresponding author Email: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This study is aimed at investigating the thermochemical fuel characteristics and kinetic decomposition of melon seed husks (MSH) under inert (pyrolysis) conditions. The calorific value, elemental composition, proximate analyses and thermal kinetics of MSH was examined. The kinetic parameters; activation energy E and frequency factor A for MSH decomposition under pyrolysis conditions were determined using the Kissinger and isoconversional Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO) methods. The values of E for MSH ranged from 146.81 to 296 kJ/mol at degrees of conversion α = 0.15 to 0.60 for FWO. The decomposition of MSH process was fastest at α = 0.15 and slowest at α = 0.60 with average E and A values of 192.96 kJ/mol and 2.86 x 1026 min-1, respectively at correlation values of 0.9847. The kinetic values of MSH using the Kissinger method are E = 161.26 kJ/mol and frequency factor, A = 2.08 x 1010 min-1 with the correlation value, R2 = 0.9958. The results indicate that MSH possesses important characteristics of a potential solid biofuel (SBF) for future thermochemical applications in clean energy and power generation. Keywords: Biofuel, Pyrolysis, Kinetics, Melon, Seed, Husks Introduction Melon (Citrullus colocynthis L.) is an important oil seed and perennial cash crop widely cultivated in many parts of Africa. The vegetable oil extracted from melon seed is primarily used for domestic consumption although medicinal uses [1, 2] and industrial applications for biodiesel [3, 4], soap, detergents and margarine production, have been reported.

Quality Changes of Minimally Processed Honeydew Melons Stored in Air Or Controlled Atmosphere
Postharvest Biology and Technology 14 (1998) 351–357 Short communication Quality changes of minimally processed honeydew melons stored in air or controlled atmosphere Silvina I. Portela, Marita I. Cantwell * Department of Vegetable Crops, Uni6ersity of California, One Shields A6e., Da6is, CA 95616-8746, USA Received 30 May 1998; accepted 25 July 1998 Abstract Pieces (18×35 mm cylinders) were prepared from sanitized fruits of four honeydew melon varieties (Green Flesh, Morning Ice, Rico, RML 2704) harvested at typical commercial maturity. Pieces were stored in air or controlled atmosphere (CA=air+15% CO2) at 5°C and evaluated for sensory quality, firmness, color and soluble solids concentration (SSC) after 0, 6 and 12 days. Significant variation was found among varieties in SSC (9.9–12.2%), firmness (14.0–19.9 N), and chroma (10.4–19.0), hue angle (115–113) and L* (63.7–66.8) color values of pieces on day 0. Pieces from the four varieties averaged 10 N firmness loss from day 0 to 12 and CA reduced loss significantly in only one variety. During air storage color saturation decreased only in pieces from varieties with high initial chroma (C) values. Average DC between days 0 and 12 was −3.7 for air-stored vs −1.0 for CA-stored pieces. Average DL* was −5.8 and −1.4 for the same conditions, respectively. SSC were maintained during storage in air or CA. Pieces stored in 15% CO2 had higher visual quality scores than those stored in air. In addition, CA storage greatly reduced development of macroscopic decay, translucency and off-odors.

The objective of this study is to aware people about the properties of watermelon seed oil and the potential benefits of the oil. According to most of the researchers’ watermelon seed oil has positive impact on growth and it has cardioprotective, hepatoprotective and anti-diabetic effects. After thorough comprehensive toxicological investigation, animal studies, physicochemical characteristics and nutritional analysis, it is recommended that it is the demand of time to explore its commercial potential.
