ABSTRACT Plant‐based antioxidants are widely incorporated into foods to retard oxidative deterioration and to deliver health‐related benefits. Yet, their in‐product and in vivo performance frequently diverges from predictions based on solution‐phase chemical assays, because matrix interactions, processing history, and host metabolism reshape both ...

ABSTRACT Honey adulteration is a prevalent economic fraud that demands robust and reliable detection methods. In this study, a proof‐of‐concept was developed on a comparative study of oscillatory thermorheology (20°C–80°C) and spectroscopic techniques, including UV‐Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy, for the detection of adulteration with glucose ...

Anatomical and Histological Characterization of the Intestine of Artibeus lituratus
ABSTRACT The order Chiroptera is highly diverse and is the second richest among mammals. Approximately 181 species are known in Brazil, with varied feeding habits that make them essential for ecological functions such as seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Despite the importance of their ecosystem services, the anatomical and histological aspects of

ABSTRACT Biological control in high tunnel systems can be optimised by matching predator species to seasonal environmental conditions. We evaluated the predatory efficacy of syrphid flies (Toxomerus marginatus (Say), Eupeodes americanus (Fabricius)) and lacewings (Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens), Chrysoperla rufilabris (Burmeister)) across laboratory ...
