Plum kernels are a promising source of dietary proteins that are irretrievably lost during processing. The recovery of these underexploited proteins could be eminently vital for human nutrition. Plum kernel protein isolate (PKPI) was prepared and exposed

Mechanical harvesting of plums for processing with a continuously moving combine harvester [PDF]
ABSTRACT Eleven plum cultivars (Prunus domestica L.) for processing grafted on semidwarf rootstock ‘Wangenheim Prune’ and vigorous rootstock ‘Myrobalan’ were densely planted (1000, 1250, 1666, 2500 trees ha-1) and trained to central leader spindle tree. A new training system was applied to obtain trees suitable for mechanical harvesting.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Modulating light with light via giant nano-opto-mechanical nonlinearity of plasmonic metamaterial
From the demonstration of saturable absorption by Vavilow and Levshin in 1926, and with invention of the laser, unavailability of strongly nonlinear materials was a key obstacle for developing optical signal processing, in particular in transparent ...
