Present and future potential of plant-derived products to control arthropods of veterinary and medical significance [PDF]

, 2014
The use of synthetic pesticides and repellents to target pests of veterinary and medical significance is becoming increasingly problematic. One alternative approach employs the bioactive attributes of plant-derived products (PDPs). These are particularly

Understanding protein–flavor interactions: Factors, characterization techniques, and the effect of processing

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The perception of flavor in a food system depends on its release from the protein matrix. Apart from hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions and van der Waal's forces, the formation of covalent adducts between the flavor and protein highly impacts the release of flavor from the protein matrix.

1‐Methylcyclopropene Containing‐Paper Enhances the Storability of Anxi Persimmon by Regulating Energy Metabolism

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
1‐Methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) containing‐paper delayed the color change and maintained higher rate of commercially acceptable fruit in Anxi persimmons during storage were attributed to the increased activities of H+‐ATPase, Ca2+‐ATPase, and Mg2+‐ATPase and higher levels of ATP content and energy charge (EC).

Dietary essential oils modulate post‐mortem oxidative damage in trout fillets exposed to slaughter stress during frozen storage

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Slaughter is a critical phase in aquaculture that can severely compromise both animal welfare and product quality. Stress responses triggered during this stage may accelerate post‐mortem biochemical degradation and promote oxidative damage in fish fillets. Essential oils, known for their antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties,
