Carbon and nitrogen isotopic survey of northern peruvian plants: baselines for paleodietary and paleoecological studies.

PLoS ONE, 2013
The development of isotopic baselines for comparison with paleodietary data is crucial, but often overlooked. We review the factors affecting the carbon (δ(13)C) and nitrogen (δ(15)N) isotopic compositions of plants, with a special focus on the carbon ...

Plant‐based protein crops and their improvement: Current status and future perspectives

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract The plant‐based protein industry is rapidly growing and is projected to grow to over $27 billion by 2030. In addition to monetary benefits, plant‐based protein crops, particularly pulse crops (i.e., legume species with dry edible seed), can supplement the existing crop biodiversity and break the disease and insect pest cycle in drastically ...

A Blueprint for Building Resilience and Food Security in MENA and SSA Drylands: Diversifying Agriculture With Neglected and Underutilized Species

Food and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
ABSTRACT Drylands, encompassing 41% of global land and supporting over 2 billion people, face significant challenges, including water scarcity, extreme temperatures, and soil degradation. Dryland spans vast areas of Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and Sub‐Sahara Africa (SSA) regions and poses a threat to food security and resilience.

The role of selected nutraceuticals in management of prediabetes and diabetes: An updated review of the literature. Part II

Phytotherapy Research, Volume 38, Issue 11, Page 5490-5532, November 2024.
Abstract We have already published a review about the results of clinical trials evaluating the effects of selected nutraceuticals on glycemia in humans. In this second part, we describe the role of other nutraceuticals involved in dysglycemia. The available evidence showed promising hypoglycemic effects of the nutraceuticals reviewed both for their ...

Effect of ultrasonication and temperature on hydration process and hardness of two cowpea types

Journal of Food Process Engineering, Volume 47, Issue 10, October 2024.
This study presents the impact of ultrasonication and soaking temperatures on the water uptake and hardness of two cowpea types under different soaking times. The moisture content and hardness of the studied samples were also measured. An increase in soaking temperature and the use of ultrasonication enhanced water uptake and reduced hardness, which is
