Decay mechanisms of brown-rot fungi: Dissertation

open access: yes, 1996
Brown-rot fungi, e.g. the dryrot fungus (Serpula lacrymans), are the most harmful microorganisms in timber in service in Finland and in temperate regions. Brown-rot fungi cause wood decay primarily by attacking the carbohydrates of the cell walls, leaving lignin essentially undigested. At the initial stage of decay, brown-rot fungi seem to operate by a

Harnessing the power of machine and deep learning for transferring joint species distribution models considering the structure of biotic interactions

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The transferability of single or joint species distribution models ((j)SDMs) depends on their ability to predict beyond the observed environmental range and to remain consistent despite shifts in biotic interactions. Transfer accuracy may be improved by recent advances in the application of deep learning that provide greater flexibility and potentially

Environmental Control for Edible Fungi Cultivation Based on Temporal Information and Deep Learning

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Currently, there are still prevalent issues in greenhouse environmental regulation, such as response lag, low control accuracy, and difficulty in coping with sudden environmental disturbances. To achieve high‐precision and dynamic control of the edible fungi cultivation environment, this study proposes an edible fungi environmental control ...

Edible Antifungal Coatings Based on Litchi Chinensis Seed Starch Enriched With Pericarp Procyanidins for the Postharvest Preservation of Strawberries

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Lychee starch coatings enriched with procyanidins showed strong antifungal activity and effectively preserved strawberry quality postharvest, reducing weight loss, decay, and senescence. This highlights their potential as a sustainable natural alternative for shelf‐life extension and fungal control in fresh produce.

Toxicological Evaluation of the Undesirable Components in Processed Infant Foods Using Artificial Intelligence

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
The detection of toxins in baby food using artificial intelligence. ABSTRACT Infant foods and baby formulas are becoming increasingly popular across the globe owing to their ease of consumption and nutritional value specific to infants. Impurities may find their way into the food chain at any point from the acquisition of raw materials to final ...

Investigating the Impact of Three Washing Methods on Microbial Reduction, Color, and Texture of Spinach and Tomatoes

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
The effectiveness of three washing methods (tap water, 0.01% sodium hypochlorite, and 1% citric acid) was investigated on spinach and tomatoes. The citric acid solution demonstrated the highest microbial reduction for both spinach and tomatoes, particularly during storage, and maintained the produce texture or color.

Aloe vera in Food Preservation: Harnessing Bioactive Constituents for Clean‐Label Innovation and Safety Assurance

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Aloe vera‐derived biopolymers and nanoformulations enhance antimicrobial, antioxidant, and barrier functions in clean‐label edible coatings and films, whereas safety‐critical anthraquinone thresholds and regulatory constraints shape their translational potential.

Standardized Protocol for Isolation and Cryopreservation of Cultivable Endophytes From Fresh and Dried Citrus aurantium Peels

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
A protocol for converting Citrus aurantium peel—from both fresh fruit and dried Zhike—into a curated endophytic microbial library through standardized surface sterilization, tissue homogenization, and multi‐medium culturing, followed by 16S/ITS‐based identification and −80°C cryopreservation, enabling reproducible exploration of citrus peel microbiota ...

Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...
