Reducing Postharvest Loss of Stored Grains Using Plant‐Based Biopesticides: A Review of Past Research Efforts

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The world population is projected to be 9.1 billion by the year 2050, and about 70% extra food will be required. One of the main challenges regarding food security is postharvest loss due to insect pests. The overall postharvest grain losses for sub‐Saharan Africa could be as high as US$4 billion/year.

Cold plasma for insect pest control: Tribolium castaneum mortality and defense mechanisms in response to treatment

Plasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2021., 2021
Direct atmospheric cold plasma treatment significantly reduces the viability of preadult insects' stages within seconds of treatment. Longer treatment is needed to inactivate adult insects. The change in oxidative stress markers correlates with the mortality rates of insects, suggesting that higher plasma doses can cause severe oxidative damage to ...

Hydrolytic enzymes and their directly and indirectly effects on gluten and dough properties: An extensive review

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 9, Issue 7, Page 3988-4006, July 2021., 2021
The present review investigates the effects of some hydrolytic enzymes (protease and peptidase, alcalase, xylanase, pentosanase, and cellulase) on the rheological, functional, conformational, and nutritional features of gluten and dough. Overall, protease, peptidase, and alcalase directly affect peptide bonds in gluten.
