Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) essential oil (MPEO) is recognized for its broad‐spectrum antimicrobial properties and potential applications in food preservation. This study aimed to determine whether the bioactivity of MPEO is attributable to (R)‐(+)‐limonene or whether the complete essential oil provides higher efficacy due to ...

Analysis of Beetle Cuticular Hydrocarbons [PDF]
, 2013 The insect cuticle, commonly known as the exoskeleton, consists of two layers: a\ud bottom layer called the procuticule and a thin outer waxy coating called the epicuticle.\ud The epicuticle contains hydrocarbons that prevent desiccation and are used for

Dietary impact of agri‐food by‐products on the volatile composition of Tenebrio molitor larvae
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Incorporating Tenebrio molitor larvae as ingredients in common foods is a promising strategy to encourage their consumption. To achieve this, knowing their volatile profile and the factors that may modify the profile is essential. The effect of larval feeding over volatile composition remains under‐researched, for this reason; the ...

Clines in cuticular hydrocarbons in two drosophila species with independent population histories [PDF]
, 2010 We took a comparative approach utilizing clines to investigate the extent to which natural selection may have shaped population divergence in cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) that are also under sexual selection in Drosophila.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Heavy metal (HM) contamination of soil–plant systems poses persistent ecological and health risks, driving interest in nanoparticle‐based remediation. Although conventional chemically synthesized nanoparticles (CSNPs) are effective, their energy‐intensive production and residual toxicity limit sustainable deployment.

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The review examines the evolution of chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CI‐MS), a technique developed in 1966 by Field and Munson. CI is a soft‐ionization method that produces more intense molecular ions with less fragmentation than electron ionization (EI).

Identification of Orius spp. by Cuticular Hydrocarbons.
Japanese Journal of Applied Entomology and Zoology, 2001 Orius spp. are promising natural enemies for control of thrips, harmful insect pests of vegetables. It is, however, extremely difficult to identify adult females of Orius spp. by their appearance. The composition of cuticular hydrocarbons in O. strigicollis, O. minutus and O. sauteri were analyzed by GC-MS. Major components were C27:1 and 2-MeC28 for O.

Med Research, EarlyView.This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...
