Mitigating Microbial Contamination in Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Using Ultraviolet C Irradiation: A Review

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Although fresh produce is extremely perishable and contaminated, it is essential for good health. To eliminate important foodborne pathogens, this paper investigates UV‐C irradiation as a safe, nonthermal technique. UV dose, exposure duration, and product characteristics all affect effectiveness.

The mediating role of the kynurenine pathway in longitudinal associations between dietary intake and quality of life in colorectal cancer survivors up to 12 months posttreatment

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Many colorectal cancer survivors experience reduced health‐related quality of life (HRQoL), often lasting years after diagnosis. Healthy dietary patterns and even individual macro‐ and micronutrients, however, can potentially improve HRQoL.

Effect of Vapor Pressure Deficit on Nutrient Uptake and Growth of Four Tomato Varieties Grown Hydroponically at Low Nutrient Concentrations

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Marginal water sources, such as wastewater, have been proposed as the basis for hydroponic nutrient solutions to improve the resource efficiency of greenhouse‐based tomato production. Such water sources are often low in plant‐available nutrient concentrations, and uptake and use efficiency of these nutrients may vary widely among ...

How does the nectar of stomata-free nectaries cross the cuticle?

Acta Botânica Brasílica
In many glandular structures, departure from the cell is only one step in the process of exudate release to the plant surface. Here the set of events that lead nectar to the external environment is presented and discussed mainly for stomata-free ...
