Use of predictive tools for the analysis of bioactive compounds in Crocus sativus L. flowers

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Crocus sativus L. (saffron) flowers have high bioactive potential because of their content of crocins, safranal and phenolic compounds. The development of predictive models based on near‐infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and partial least squares regression to estimate the antioxidant capacity of saffron flower, evaluated using oxygen ...

Antimicrobial bilayer starch film containing zein electrospun fibers encapsulating thyme essential oil for cherry tomato packaging

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of thyme essential oil (TEO) encapsulated in electrospun zein fibers for use in bilayer films as active packaging for cherry tomatoes. The antimicrobial activity of TEO and bilayer films with 20%, 40%, and 60% TEO was assessed with agar diffusion and microatmosphere assays.

Plasma‐activated water processing and storage time impacts pea microgreens yield and quality

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plasma‐activated water (PAW) is emerging as a sustainable input capable of enhancing crop yield and quality while reducing dependence on synthetic fertilizers. However, how PAW chemistry evolves during storage and how these dynamics translate into crop growth and quality remain poorly understood.

Bio‐Derived Carbon Nanoparticles: A Green Amendment for Alleviating Heavy Metals in Soil–Plant Systems

open access: yesLand 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.
