Developing and Characterization of Edible Films from Resistant Polymers of Native Potato Starch as a Food Coating

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions
The production of biodegradable plastic materials using natural resources is very important due to environmental concerns. The purpose of this research was to develop and characterize a film based on native potato starch employing glycerol as a ...

Carotenoid composition in native and commercial potato (Solanum sp.) cultivars.

open access: yes, 2011
The present study was aimed to characterise the carotenoid profile in a wide selected collection of potato tubers in order to provide information to be used in breeding programs directed to improve the nutritional value of potatoes, as well as to increase our knowledge of the biochemical insight of the processes governing the biosynthesis of ...

How does leaf age affect performance? A comparative study of essential oils from young and mature Eucalyptus globulus leaves in crop protection

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Leaf age influences metabolomic profiling but not bioactivity of Eucalyptus globulus essential oils. Leaf age affects volatile levels of young and adult E. globulus oils, but not their bioactivity. Young leaf essential oil had higher contents of α‐ and β‐pinene. AEEO had higher levels of 1,8‐cineole and trans‐pinocarveol.

Chitosan‐protected dsRNA increases efficacy against Helicoverpa armigera without compromising biosafety for pollinators

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Chitosan/tripolyphosphate/double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) nanoparticles enhance RNA interference efficacy of orally delivered dsRNA against Helicoverpa armigera. Nanoparticles reduce the LC50 and do not cause deleterious effects or toxicity on beneficial insects.

Forecast verification using information and noise

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Verification of weather forecasts is usually expressed in terms of total error metrics. This is useful for end users of the forecasts but does not allow evaluation of the intrinsic information content of the forecasts. To overcome this limitation, we propose a new total error decomposition into information and noise error measures, connect it to ...
