Recent Applications of Melanin-like Nanoparticles as Antioxidant Agents
Nanosized antioxidants are highly advantageous in terms of versatility and pharmacokinetics, with respect to conventional molecular ones. Melanin-like materials, artificial species inspired by natural melanin, combine recognized antioxidant (AOX ...

Genetic analyses of leaf traits in an interspecific Zoysia japonica × Zoysia matrella F2 population
Abstract Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) is an important warm‐season turfgrass cultivated across tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions of the world. The genus is characterized by the presence of salt‐secreting glands on the adaxial leaf surface, which contribute to its high salt tolerance.

Mechanisms of AOX removal during biological treatment
It is well known that a portion of the AOX generated during the bleaching of chemical pulps will degrade to inorganic chloride when alkali and heat are added to the waste stream. As reported by others, this hydrolysis can potentially occur in the mill sewer system as well as within the wastewater treatment process.

Cyanide-resistant non-phosphorylating respiration is known in mitochondria from plants, fungi, and microorganisms but is absent in mammals. It results from the activity of an alternative oxidase (AOX) that conveys electrons directly from the respiratory ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Black flesh (BF) is an internal disorder in mango, characterized by the development of dark brown to black pigmentation in the inner mesocarp tissue during storage or transport. This study investigated the effects of harvest maturity, low storage or low transport temperatures, and 1‐methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) on mango fruit ...

Thioredoxin system modulates metabolic and stomatal responses to elevated CO2 in Arabidopsis
Integrative model of extraplastidial NADPH‐dependent thioredoxin reductase/thioredoxin system‐mediated regulation of stomatal function, redox homeostasis, and metabolic responses under ambient and elevated CO2 in Arabidopsis thaliana. Summary The NADPH‐dependent thioredoxin reductase/thioredoxin (NTR/TRX) system plays a central role in maintaining ...

The conversion of nitrate to ammonium, i.e., nitrate reduction, is a major consumer of reductants in plants. Previous studies have reported that the mitochondrial alternative oxidase (AOX) is upregulated under limited nitrate reduction conditions ...

PO-13 SEX DIFFERENCES IN VASCULAR FUNCTION FOLLOWING ANTIOXIDANT SUPPLEMENTATION
Objectives: Sex differences in cardiovascular disease risk and progression are well established. Estrogen loss following menopause leads to vascular dysfunction, potentially due to elevations in oxidative stress and subsequent decrements in nitric oxide.

Difference in adsorbable organic halogen formation between phenolic and non-phenolic lignin model compounds in chlorine dioxide bleaching [PDF]
Adsorbable organic halogen (AOX) is generally formed by the reaction of residual lignin in pulps with chlorine dioxide during bleaching. Lignin has a complex structure. Different functional groups and bonds are present in lignin structures.

Considerations of AOX Functionality Revealed by Critical Motifs and Unique Domains [PDF]
An understanding of the genes and mechanisms regulating environmental stress in crops is critical for boosting agricultural yield and safeguarding food security. Under adverse conditions, response pathways are activated for tolerance or resistance.
