Abstract:
Cold pressing technology is a new technology using during the apple juice processing, which involved peeling and deseeding of apples at low temperature. The phenolics of apple juice, apple vinegar and apple pomace generated by cold pressing and traditional process were investigated. The results showed that the total phenols and flavanols of cold pressing apple juice were lower than those of traditional process. The total phenols content of peel pomace extract was significantly higher than that of the pulp pomace by almost tenfold, which showed that the peels and seeds were valuable sources of phenolic compounds. The total phenols of apple vinegars were significantly different. The predominant compounds in apple products were phloridzin and chlorogenic acid, while the apple pomaces based on cold pressing technology had significantly high content of phenolic compounds, indicating that the cold pressing technology could facilitated the use of apple pomace for bioactive compounds.

Dot Product
In engineering, the dot product of any two vectors is the product of the magnitudes of the vectors and the cosine of the angle between them. It is denoted by a dot symbol between the two vectors.
Consider a vehicle pulling an object along the ground using a rope. If the rope makes an angle with the horizontal axis, the work done can be calculated using the dot product of the force applied and the object's displacement.
The dot...
Cross Product
The magnitude of the cross product is obtained by multiplying the magnitude of both the vectors and the sine of the angle between them. This means that a larger angle between the vectors will lead to a greater magnitude of the cross product.
