Maintaining egg freshness in the absence of refrigeration: The potential of zero‐energy cooling pots
Abstract Background Egg storage in regions with unreliable electricity is challenging, leading to rapid quality deterioration and postharvest losses. This study evaluated the efficacy of a Zero‐Energy Cooling (ZEC) pot, an evaporative cooling technology, for preserving table egg quality in comparison to conventional refrigeration and ambient storage ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Water scarcity and soil salinization are major constraints to irrigated agriculture in semi‐arid regions, affecting crop productivity and fruit quality. Combining deficit irrigation with biostimulant application has emerged as a promising strategy to improve water use efficiency and plant stress tolerance.

Abstract BACKGROUND Plant‐based proteins, such as hazelnut protein isolates (HPIs), often exhibit limited solubility and functionality, as well as allergenic potential, thereby limiting their applicability in food products. This investigation sought to improve the techno‐functional characteristics of HPI and mitigate its allergenicity via high‐pressure

Advancing forward osmosis predictions: A deep learning‐based surrogate modeling approach
Abstract BACKGROUND This study presents a deep learning‐based surrogate model for the rapid and accurate prediction of forward osmosis (FO) performance under diverse operating conditions. To assess the applicability of data‐driven approaches, several machine learning models – decision tree, random forest, support vector machine, and deep neural network
