Powdered hibiscus anthocyanin‐nanofibril complexes as natural colourants: Stability and application in yoghurt and soft candy

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The instability of anthocyanins limits their application as natural food colorants. This study aimed to enhance the stability of anthocyanins extracted from Hibiscus sabdariffa through copigmentation with protein nanofibrils produced from pea, rice, gluten and whey isolates. Linear and curly nanofibril structures were prepared and incorporated

Hydromulches in Organic Strawberry Production: Effects on Densities of Insect Pests and Natural Enemies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Liquid‐sprayable cellulose hydromulches (HM) are alternatives to plastic polyethylene (PE) mulches for weed suppression in organic agriculture. However, their impact on arthropod pests and natural enemies remains unexplored. Various HMs made of shredded newsprint, water and guar gum were compared against white‐on‐black PE mulch, paper sheet ...
