2017年2月7日 · What if we told you that discarding the albedo (the white layer between the skin and the pulp of citrus fruits) you will miss a number of beneficial effects for your health? Here are just some of the amazing properties of the albedo:

2018年7月1日 · It’s called albedo. Eat or toss? The citrus is perfectly fine, so eat! Some people don’t eat the albedo itself because it can be bitter, but that’s a question of taste and not safety. It’s safe to eat citrus with white fluff like this inside. Here’s why.

2021年4月26日 · The albedo, the white part inside the citrus fruit, is rich in fibre and antioxidants. Indeed, here in this thin spongy layer is pectin, a soluble fibre that helps keep our intestines healthy, but is also used as a natural thickener in cooking.

Albedo breakdown is an intermittent disorder that affects the albedo of citrus rind where there is separation of cells in the albedo tissue resulting in the characteristic channels or creasing of the skin.

2021年1月3日 · Results from this investigation suggest that albedo might be used by the food industry as a novel raw material, due to its superior physicochemical properties. Moreover, results provide evidence that the enzyme-assisted extraction is advantageous to recover phenolics from the citrus peels.

2020年1月22日 · Purchasing citrus sections in a jar from the grocery store may seem like a luxury but you are paying a lot of money for fewer health benefits. Studies reveal that orange albedo is almost tasteless. Lemon white stuff is nearly sweet, but grapefruit pith is the most bitter.

Parts of citrus fruits. Albedo. Inner and soft white skin of the orange located in the rind of the citrus fruits, which contains essential oils, pectin and cellulose. Endocarp. Inner part of the orange formed by the edible and juicy segments. Exocarp

2020年1月22日 · Albedo freshness and radiance makes the skin glow. The high fiber of the white stuff aids in the feeling of fullness after eating citrus. Albedo is also rich in antioxidant power, useful for blood circulation.

Citrus peels are comprised of two regions: the flavedo and the albedo (Figure 1). The flavedo consists of characteristic peel oils and pigments while the albedo is the white pithy region.

Calcium nitrate sprays are particularly effective at helping reduce Albedo Breakdown. Fertigating with YaraLiva ® calcium nitrates will reduce and may eliminate the need for foliar applications. Poor boron supply also reduces calcium uptake and therefore can induce a breakdown of the albedo and promote post-harvest rot.
