Physical and metabolic alterations in "Prata Anã" banana induced by mechanical damage at room temperature Alterações físicas e metabólicas em banana 'Prata Anã' induzidas por dano mecânico mantidas sob temperatura ambiente

Scientia Agricola, 2011
Bananas respond at the physical and physiological level to mechanical damage. Mechanical injuries cause alterations in color and flavor, tissue softening, faster ripening, increased weight loss, increased invasion of microorganisms, and higher enzyme ...

Enhancing the Functional Properties of Polylactic Acid by Incorporation of Esterified Lignin

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Esterified lignin from agro‐industrial wastes enhances the hydrophobicity, UV‐shielding efficiency, and antioxidant capacity of polylactic acid composites. ABSTRACT Incorporating lignin as an additive is a promising strategy to overcome the limitations of PLA‐based composites.

Endophytic bacterial diversity in banana 'Prata Anã' (Musa spp.) roots [PDF]

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2013
The genetic diversity of endophytic bacteria in banana 'Prata Anã' roots was characterized. Two hundred and one endophytic bacteria were isolated, 151 of which were classified as Gram-positive and 50 as Gram-negative. No hypersensitivity response was observed in any of the isolates.
