Modelling the kinetics of thermal inactivation of apple polyphenoloxidase [PDF]
The enzymatic browning of fruits and vegetables caused by mechanical injury during postharvest storage or processing is initiated by the catalytic action of polyphenoloxidase (PPO).

Progress in the study of dioecy in Mexican cycad species and its implications for conservation
Cycads are endangered dioecious plants of great ornamental value that have a long period of sexual maturity. Therefore, it is crucial to have methods for early sex determination that can help to develop effective strategies for their conservation. Abstract Dioecy is a system of sexual reproduction in plants, characterized by the spatial separation of ...

Polyphenoloxidase activity in peaches after vibration [PDF]
The vibration during transportation is one of the main causes of fruit damage. The actual methodologies used for damage evaluation in fruits seem to be subjective, since most of them are based on visual evaluation. In this study the effect of vibration, for one and two hours, on polyphenoloxidase (PPO) activity in peach pulp was investigated.

A comprehensive review of the genetic control of cooking time in dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Reducing cooking time could increase dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) consumption. Cooking is an essential processing step needed to unlock the nutrients in dry beans and to make them palatable and safe for consumption. Long cooking times have consequences for dry bean use, especially where cooking fuel cost is high and when people prefer foods that are ...

Characterization of polyphenoloxidase (PPO) extracted from ‘Jonagored’ apple [PDF]
Polyphenoloxidase (PPO) was extracted from apple (cv. Jonagored) with addition of 2% PVP and 0.25% Triton X100 to the extraction buffer containing phenolic adsorbents. Experiments were performed to evaluate the affinity and specificity towards several substrates.

Root Rot Affects Red Clover More Than Other Forage Legumes in Mixed Grass‐Legume Leys
ABSTRACT Red clover (RC) (Trifolium pratense L.) is the most important forage legume in Swedish mixed grass‐legume (MGL) leys. This study evaluated the persistence of two RC cultivars, white clover (WC), birdsfoot trefoil (BT), and lucerne (LU) in mixtures of timothy and meadow fescue associated with root rot (RR).
