Tissue slices of zucchini squash (Cucurbita pepo L., cv. Tigress) fruit were exposed to ultraviolet-C (UV-C) radiation from germicidal lamps for 1, 10 or 20 min; however, only 10 and 20 min UV-C exposure significantly reduced microbial activity and deterioration during subsequent storage at 5 or 10
In this study it is demonstrated that much higher concentrations of bases dissolved in water can be injected in capillary zone electrophoresis without causing peak deterioration, e.g., peak splitting, if it is the co-ion that buffers instead of the counter-ion. Those findings can be utilised to
Prevention of browning of apples slices has been difficult to achieve because of the rapidity of the enzymatic oxidation of phenolic substrates even under reduced atmospheric pressure storage. Combinations of enzymatic inhibitors, reducing agents, and antimicrobial compounds containing calcium to
The Vesuvian Piennolo cherry tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Miller) (PdP) is an old and typical variety grown in the Campania region (Italy). PdP is referred to as a long-storage tomato due to its thick and coriaceous skin that allows long post-harvest storage and it has been granted Protected
Changes in sugars, organic acids and volatile compounds (VC) of red pepper flakes (RPF), traditional (TRI), and industrial (INI) isot peppers were evaluated during one year storage at the room condition. The changes in the flavor components were significantly affected by the production methods and
Indium nitrate is mainly used as a semiconductor in batteries, for plating and other chemical and medical applications. There is a lack of available information about the adverse effects of indium compounds on aquatic organisms. Therefore, the toxic effects on systems from four trophic levels of the
There was found a correlation between dynamic changes in the serotonin level and mortality in rats with 9,10-dimethyl-1,2-benzanthracene induced blastomogenesis. An estimation was made of the influence of monoamine oxidase inhibitors, transamine and D, L-malic acid benzyldihydrazide on the type of a
1-Methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) is a mitochondrial Complex I inhibitor and is frequently used to investigate the pathological degeneration of neurons associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). In vitro, extracellular concentration of glucose is one of the most critical factors in establishing the
The mouse mutation nervous (nr), expressed as a recessive, causes a morphologic change in cerebellar Purkinje cell perikaryonal mitochondria during the 2nd postnatal week which is followed by the selective degeneration of most Purkinje cells. In the present study, mitochondrial dehydrogenase
The ovate mutation has frequently been used to study changes in fruit shape but not fruit quality. A deterioration in fruit quality associated with the ovate mutation was discovered in this study. To elucidate how ovate influences the quality of fruit, we performed a proteomics analysis of the
Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure alters brain development, clinical cognition and behavior in childhood. Previous studies of this subject have mainly been epidemiological investigations or analyses of gene and protein levels; however, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)-based
Long-term low-temperature conditioning (LT-LTC) decreases apple fruit quality, but the underlying physiological and molecular basis is relatively uncharacterized. We identified 12 clusters of DEGs involved in multiple biological processes (i.e., sugar, malic acid, fatty acid, lipid, complex
Like Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the Golden Retriever Muscular Dystrophy (GRMD) dog model of DMD is characterized by muscle necrosis, progressive paralysis, and pseudohypertrophy in specific skeletal muscles. This severe GRMD phenotype includes moderate atrophy of the biceps femoris (BF) as
