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.

Novel perspectives on stomatal impressions: Rapid and non-invasive surface characterization of plant leaves by scanning electron microscopy.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is widely used to investigate the surface morphology, and physiological state of plant leaves. Conventionally used methods for sample preparation are invasive, irreversible, require skill and expensive equipment, and ...

Influence of Nanomaterials and Nanocomposites on the Nutrient Composition

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials and nanocomposites enhance crop nutrition and food quality by improving nutrient availability, plant uptake, and bioavailability through controlled delivery and nano‐encapsulation. Their applications in agriculture and food systems enable sustainable biofortification, improved preservation, and functional foods, while emphasizing safety ...

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 ...

Diversity in Stomata Morphology among Cultivated Blueberry Genotypes and Its Influence on Irradiance Response Dynamics

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science
Stomata are pores on the leaf epidermis that control gas exchange between leaves and the atmosphere. Stomata differ in shape, size, and number among and within plant species. Stomata morphology has physiological consequences for some plant species.

Glutamine and partially hydrolyzed guar gum promote intestinal adaptation and modulate small intestinal microbiota in high‐output stoma: A case report

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract We report a case of a very low‐birth‐weight infant with a high‐output stoma following necrotizing enterocolitis. The patient exhibited villous atrophy and microbial dysbiosis. Supplementation with glutamine and partially hydrolyzed guar gum (PHGG) was initiated, leading to reduced stoma output, improved feeding tolerance, and appropriate ...

Reinstatement of the name Anisochilus eriocephalus Benth. (Lamiaceae) supported by micromorphological and molecular data

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
In 2019, A. J. Paton et al. proposed a new taxonomic combination, transferring Anisochilus carnosus (L.f.) Wall. ex Benth. to Coleus strobilifer (Benth.) A.J.Paton, and including Anisochilus eriocephalus Benth. within this broader circumscription.

Long-Term Effects of Red- and Blue-Light Emitting Diodes on Leaf Anatomy and Photosynthetic Efficiency of Three Ornamental Pot Plants

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Light quality critically affects plant development and growth. Development of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) enables the use of narrow band red and/or blue wavelengths as supplementary lighting in ornamental production.
