Botanical treatment enhances biochemical responses in enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) clones

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bacterial wilt of enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is a severe disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, resulting in complete crop failure and considerable damage. This study assessed the biochemical responses of two enset clones (one resistant and one susceptible) when inoculated with the pathogen and ...

Effect of electronic structure of the diamond surface on the strength of the diamond-metal interface [PDF]

A diamond surface undergoes a transformation in its electronic structure by a vacuum anneal at approximately 900 C. The polished surface has no electronic states in the band gap, whereas the annealed surface has both occupied and unoccupied states in the

Influence of different drying techniques on the quality and physicochemical properties of Ghana‐sourced turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) samples

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study evaluated the influence of four drying techniques—freeze drying (FZD), microwave drying (MCD), oven drying (OVD), and sun drying (SUD)—on the bioactive, nutritional, and physical properties of turmeric. Using standard analytical procedures, the samples were examined for antioxidant activity (DPPH and ABTS assays), total ...

Thin‐layer drying kinetics and mathematical modelling of osmotically pretreated vacuum dried green chilli

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Chilli is highly perishable, often requiring drying to extend shelf life. This study assesses and compares the drying kinetics of osmotically pretreated green chilli under vacuum drying conditions while evaluating suitable mathematical models and calculating effective moisture diffusivity and activation energy. Results Sliced chilli

Can trigeminal sensations impact saltiness perception? A mini‐review

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Many food companies have begun to reduce the salt content in their products due to health concerns; however, this reduction in salt content can affect the food's sensory appeal and flavour complexity. Flavour is defined as a combination of odour (i.e., smell), taste (i.e., gustation) and trigeminal sensations (i.e., chemesthesis).

Comparative analysis of fungal microbiomes in Korean and Chinese chili pepper powders

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Chili pepper powder plays a crucial role in kimchi fermentation; however, its use may result in fungal contamination. Therefore, analyzing its mycobiome is vital to maintain quality control standards. In this study, we used internal transcribed spacer (ITS)2 amplicon sequencing to compare fungal communities in commercially available

Characterization of functional metabolites in broccoli by‐product using green extraction with supercritical fluids

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The present study aimed to valorize broccoli by‐products (leaves and stems) through the extraction of bioactive compounds using supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). The influence of broccoli variety, plant part and maturation stage on total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant activity and antimicrobial properties was evaluated ...

Physics‐Guided Neural Network for Quantitative Parameter Mapping Using Balanced Steady State Free Precession MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To propose a new method using a physics‐guided neural network for quantitative parameter mapping in balanced steady‐state free precession (bSSFP) imaging. Theory and Methods We trained physics‐guided neural networks with a multilayer perceptron using simulated bSSFP signals generated from tissue parameters (T1$$ {T}_1 $$, T2$$ {T}_2 $$,
