Recent Perspectives on Phytochemical Profile, Pharmacological Activities, and Industrial Applications of Guava (Psidium guajava)

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Psidium guajava leaves contain potent bioactive compounds like quercetin, myricetin, and triterpenoids that show antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti‐inflammatory, and anticancer effects. They act by modulating NF‐κB, PPARγ, and α‐glucosidase and by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.

Anthocyanins in cereals

Journal of Chromatography A, 2004
The anthocyanic composition of some pigmented cereals is still not well established, neither in relation to some of their components, nor from the quantitative point of view. Nonetheless, the use of analytical techniques, such as diode array spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS, PDMS, MALDI) coupled or not to liquid chromatography, are permitting, in

Drought Risk in Mango and Avocado Orchards: Insights Into Plant Water Relations and Irrigation‐Related Agronomic Solutions

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is making water availability more uncertain, with growing consequences for the productivity and long‐term sustainability of tropical and subtropical fruit orchards. Mangifera indica L. and Persea americana Mill. both require large amounts of water to sustain growth and productivity.

Quantification of Anthocyanin Content

Bio-Protocol, 2014
Anthocyanins are a class of flavonoids and important plant pigments. They attract insects to pollinate flowers, protect plants from UV irradiation, and act as antimicrobial agents against herbivores and pathogens.

Persistence of anticancer activity in berry extracts after simulated gastrointestinal digestion and colonic fermentation [PDF]

, 2012
Fruit and vegetable consumption is associated at the population level with a protective effect against colorectal cancer. Phenolic compounds, especially abundant in berries, are of interest due to their putative anticancer activity.

Effect of gamma irradiation and storage days on physicochemical, sensory, and microbial quality of pineapple (Ananas comosus) fresh cut under refrigeration

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fresh‐cut pineapple is increasingly consumed for its convenience and nutritional value; however, minimal processing accelerates quality deterioration and microbial growth, resulting in substantial postharvest losses. Gamma irradiation is recognized as a nonthermal preservation technique, but limited information exists regarding its ...

Combined effects of prohexadione‐calcium and growing environment on sweet cherry fruit quality and postharvest performance

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) is a high‐value fruit crop, but its commercial success is often limited by poor pigmentation, reduced firmness, and short shelf life. This study evaluated the effects of preharvest applications of prohexadione‐calcium (1.5 L ha−1) on fruit quality and storage performance in lowland and hilly orchards ...
