From freshness to preservation: insights into processing and storage impacts on purple passion fruit volatilome

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2139-2153, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Purple passion fruit is highly appreciated for its distinctive sweet flavour, low acidity, and aromatic profile, making it a desirable choice for fresh consumption and juice production. To ensure microbiological safety and extend shelf life, juice products typically undergo thermal pasteurization, which can alter their ...

Hydrogen peroxide-induced pericarp browning of harvested longan fruit in association with energy metabolism

Food Chemistry, 2017
Energy metabolism of "Fuyan" longan fruit treated with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the most stable of the reactive oxygen, and its relationship to pericarp browning were investigated in this work. The results displayed that H2O2 significantly decreased contents of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

Purification, Structural Characterization, and Anticancer Activity of the Polysaccharide From Sea Red Rice Bran

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Sea red rice bran polysaccharides were separated and purified by DEAE‐52 column chromatography, yielding three components: SRBP‐I, II, and III. Moreover, all three are pentosan‐type polysaccharides predominantly composed of mannose. Among them, SRBP‐I demonstrated the most potent inhibitory effect on HeLa cells. Further investigation indicated that the

Subjective and Objective Pericarp Colour Measurement in Block‐Red Kiwifruit

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) genotypes include fruit with green, yellow, or red flesh. Red‐fleshed kiwifruit may be either starburst, with a red inner pericarp, or block red, in which both inner and outer pericarp are red. In the research reported here, the flesh colour of two block‐red A. chinensis var. chinensis genotypes has been evaluated during

Reduction in Activity/Gene Expression of Anthocyanin Degradation Enzymes in Lychee Pericarp is Responsible for the Color Protection of the Fruit by Heat and Acid Treatment

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2013
Heat and acid treatments were reported to be a promising substitute for SO2 fumigation in color protection of postharvest lychee (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) fruits, but the mechanism was not clear.

Genome‐Wide Association Analyses Reveal the Genetic Basis of EMS Mutagenesis Efficiency in Rice

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Based on large‐scale screening of 420 rice accessions, GWAS identified the Rc locus as a key regulator of EMS mutagenesis efficiency. Functional Rc alleles enhance both seed survival and genome‐wide mutation frequency by boosting antioxidant enzyme activities (CAT, SOD, POD) and reducing oxidative damage.
