Physicochemical Properties and Antioxidant Activity of Apocynum Honey in Different Regions of Xinjiang

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, honey produced from Apocynum venetum L. was collected from BC (Bachu County), SY (Shaya County), and YL (Yuli County) in Xinjiang. The basic physical and chemical properties of the honey, and the contents of total phenols, total flavonoids, and amino acids were analyzed, and 16 types of polyphenols were quantified using triple ...

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

Food 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.

Dielectric properties of litchi fruit (Litchi chinensis Sonn) at microwave frequencies

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2020
The dielectric properties of litchi fruit were determined using the open-ended coaxial probe method. The measurements were performed in the frequency range from 0.5 to 20 GHz during 3 days of storage at room temperature (~  24 °C). The dielectric properties increased with storage time.

Beeswax: Food and beyond

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) are an important class of insects that are the most beneficial in terms of economy. Beeswax is the second most important bee products after honey. Its commercial importance is due to its antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and antiseptic as well as regenerative properties.

Combinatorial approaches for controlling pericarp browning in Litchi (Litchi chinensis) fruit [PDF]

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2015
The availability of fruit like litchi has been limited by variability in yield, alternate bearing, seasonal differences and most commonly post harvest problems. The litchi fruit has a very short shelf-life during which red color turns brown which greatly affects the appeal to consumer although not the unique flavor.

Control of post-harvest pericarp browning of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn) [PDF]

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2010
Pericarp browning is the major post-harvest problem of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn) fruit, resulting in reduced commercial value of the fruit. Control of post-harvest pericarp browning of fruit using 9 different post-harvest treatments were studied. The treated fruits were packed in transparent perforated (0.2% ventilation) low density polythene bags
