China [email protected] Pharmazie 76: 249-255 (2021) doi: 10.1691/ph.2021.1408 Citri reticulatae pericarpium is a condiment, adding much flavor in Chinese food. Also it can be used to treat depression as a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The study here aimed to evaluate the antidepressant effect between the supercritical CO2 extract (SC-E) from Citri reticulatae pericarpium and the essential oil extracted by steam distillation (SD-E). And chemical compositions of SC-E were qualitatively analyzed by ultra-perfor- mance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) and gas chro- matography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Compared with SD-E, SC-E showed a stronger antidepressant-like effect in FST and TST mice. And it also decreased the content of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in the cerebral cortex of stressed mice. -

ASTRA Peeling Machine Can Peel the Thin Yellow Surface of the Lemon
By ASTRA Lemon, orange, grapefruit, pomelo… all these types of citrus not only taste delicious but also smell good. Citrus skins are juicy and contain rich aroma, which can serve different functions such as flavoring drinks, seasoning food, or making fragrances. The rich aroma is mainly contained in the very surface of the skin (flavedo) and the white part (albedo) often contains bitter taste. In other words, when using the citrus aroma, you only need the very surface of the skin, and the other part distracts the aroma. An ordinary peeling machine is not very good at peeling the very surface (flavedo). Since it is designed to peel the whole citrus skin, it always peels the whole skin, and the function of adjusting peeling depth is poor. So, most of the people still peel by their hands when they need flavedo. ASTRA fruit peeling machine is completely different from the ordinary peeling machine. It uses peeler blade to peel, and traces the human hand movement. This makes the machine possible to adjust the peeling depth, as a result it can peel the very surface (flavedo) of the citrus, in great speed and higher quality compared to hand peeling. Same lemon, different peeling depth 1. Peeling the surface (flavedo) Video 00:00~ The surface of a lemon skin is needed in large quantities in the catering sector (e.g., bakeries, cake shops, and juice bars) and distilleries when making liquors such as limoncello and Licor de oro. In such circumstances, the traditional type of ‘round peeler’ is usually used in business. -
