Meta-Analysis of Acceptable Non-Chlorpropham Sprout Suppressants
Advances in AgriculturePotatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) experience significant post-harvest losses due to tuber sprouting. Although several sprout suppressants are available for post-harvest sprout control, previous reviews have largely been narrative and have not ...

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction With Dimethyl Carbonate and Bio-Ethanol as Co-Solvents for the Determination of Pesticide Residues in Black Pepper by Low-Pressure Gas Chromatography-Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry. [PDF]
J Sep SciABSTRACT The determination of pesticide residues in spices is analytically challenging due to their high content of essential oils and secondary metabolites that could interfere with detection and quantification. In this study, supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), using green co‐solvents, was evaluated for the extraction of 44 pesticides from black ...

Prioritisation of pesticides and target organ systems for dietary cumulative risk assessment based on the 2019-2021 monitoring cycle. [PDF]
EFSA JAbstract Aiming at accelerating the implementation of cumulative risk assessment to pesticide residues, this report describes a two‐step prioritisation analysis, on individual pesticides and on target organ systems, that allows to identify (i) low‐priority substances expected to have a marginal contribution to cumulative risk, and (ii) high priority ...

Genome-wide association studies and genomics-informed breeding for tuber dormancy in tetraploid potatoes. [PDF]
Plant GenomeAbstract Upon harvest, potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers enter a dormant state and do not sprout even under favorable conditions. Early dormancy break causes tuber spoilage and reduces postharvest quality. Common sprout control methods may compromise tuber quality, raise health and environmental concerns, and increase costs.

Biological factors and production challenges drive significant UK fruit and vegetable loss. [PDF]
J Sci Food AgricAbstract BACKGROUND Food loss and waste estimates are highly inconsistent as a result of methodological and systemic differences. Additionally, the absence of in‐depth evidence surrounding the biological drivers of food loss and waste precludes targeted mitigation action.

Stereoisomers of Colourless Carotenoids from the Marine Microalga Dunaliella salina
Molecules, 2020 Carotenoids comprise a diverse range of naturally occurring stereoisomers, which differ in their physico-chemical properties. Their biosynthesis begins with phytoene, which is a rarity among carotenoids because it is colourless.

Molecules, 2022 Potato tubers tend to sprout during long-term storage, resulting in quality deterioration and shortened shelf life. Restrictions on the use of chlorpropham, the major potato sprout suppressant, have led to a need to seek alternative methods.
