A C35 Carotenoid Biosynthetic Pathway [PDF]

, 2003
Upon coexpression with Erwinia geranylgeranyldiphosphate (GGDP) synthase in Escherichia coli, C30 carotenoid synthase CrtM from Staphylococcus aureus produces novel carotenoids with the asymmetrical C35 backbone.

A review of the postharvest biochemical, biophysical and biological properties of 61 cultivars of North American pawpaw (Asimina triloba) fruit

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Fruit from the North American pawpaw (Asimina triloba) is unfamiliar to many as a food crop and botanically unusual because it is the northernmost genus and only temperate member of the tropical Annonaceae family. It is the largest edible fruit native to North America.

Utilization of NIRS and Minolta Chromameter in selection for increased carotenoids content in cassava roots. [SP10-03] [PDF]

, 2012
Significant progress has been made increasing carotenoids content in cassava roots. The information was used to test the usefulness of NIRs and the Minolta Chromameter in predicting carotenoids content (and other relevant traits). Quantification was made

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

LUMINESCENT SPECTROSCOPY AND CHROMATOGRAPHY OF MILK THISTLE OIL OF DIFFERENT STORAGE PERIODS

Harčova Nauka ì Tehnologìâ
The luminescence spectral properties of milk thistle oil obtained by cold pressing were studied over a storage period of up to two years. A high sensitivity of luminescence-active components of the oil (tocopherols, polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamins,

Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Persimmon carotenoid extract rich in β‐cryptoxanthin improves glucose homeostasis and reduces liver damage in high‐fat‐diet‐induced type 2 diabetic and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease mice

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) byproducts are a remarkable source of bioactive compounds, particularly carotenoids. Several studies suggest that carotenoids have beneficial effects in prevention of a large number of diseases. This study aims to highlight the effects of a persimmon carotenoid extract (PSCE) rich in β‐cryptoxanthin

Unveiling Cell‐Type‐Specific Immune Reactions in Human Blood Following Varied Fruit and Vegetable Blends Interventions

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Paired peripheral‐blood RNA‐seq from MiBLEND was deconvolved with CIBERSORTx to profile leukocyte composition and cell‐type‐specific transcriptomic responses to seven fruit‐and‐vegetable blends. Deconvolution yielded 22 leukocyte subtypes that correlated with laboratory WBC reports (R = 0.886, p ≤ 0.01).
