Ultraviolet spectra and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy signals for the pulp and avocado seed extracts were recorded in the wavelength range 190-600 nm and the wave number range 4200-400 cm, respectively. The flow behaviours for all avocado pulp and seed samples were also analysed in the shear rate range of 10(-2) - 10(2) s(-1) and in the frequency range of 10(-1) - 10(3) rad/s, respectively. The ultraviolet spectra of all the samples were observed as two peaks around 210 and 290 nm. The optical energy band gaps for all samples were found to be consistent with Planck's radiation approach.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessspectroscopyavocadorheologyviscosityArticle141548148610.12693/APhysPolA.141.4812-s2.0-85133338684Q4WOS:000841978300006Q4
