Development of a method for profiling of volatile organic compounds to monitor heat stress in hot water dipped apples [PDF]
Storage rot is a major contributor to losses of organic apples due to restrictions in spraying in orchards. Postharvest pre-treatments such as hot water dipping (HWD) have been proven successful to reduce storage rot.

The scent of death: A case study for volatile markers of decomposition on a concrete floor
Abstract Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released during human decomposition are chemically diverse and can provide forensic evidence indicating the prior presence of a corpse. In July 2023, the Michigan City Police Department received a report from an individual claiming to have murdered his roommate and stored the body in a basement cellar for 57 ...

Yeasts that specialize in flower nectar play an important role in pollination ecology. Metschnikowia reukaufii and Metschnikowia koreensis were the most prevalent nectar yeasts found in our field sites. Bee pollinators exhibited different behavioural responses to nectar yeasts in field experiments. Bees visited more flowers with M.

Nitrogen isotope analysis of ammonium and glycine [PDF]
Stable isotope techniques can be used as a tool in nitrogen cycling studies of different ecosystems. The studies are based on measurement of the heavy (15N)- to- light (14N) isotopic ratios of nitrogen in different biospheric pools.

Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Simple analysis of naphthalene in human whole blood and urine by headspace capillary gas chromatography with large volume injection [PDF]
Naphthalene is still being sold as a moth repellant; there is a possibility that accidental ingestion of such a product by a small infant causes serious poisoning.

ABSTRACT The symbiosis between nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia and plants is considered mutually beneficial, yet its indirect effects on other organisms remain understudied. We examined how rhizobia symbiosis in Phaseolus vulgaris influences the behaviour and performance of Diabrotica balteata larvae. Specifically, we tested larval preference for nodulated (R+

Determination of Ethyl Carbamate in Sake Using Headspace Solid Phase Microextraction [PDF]
An analytical method for the determination of ethyl carbamate in alcoholic beverages has been developed and optimized. A combination of headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME), as the extraction technique, and GC/MS, as the determination technique, was utilized.
