Upcycling Pomegranate Peel Into Functional Yoghurt: Chemical Profile, Antioxidant Capacity, and Anti–Staphylococcus aureus Activity

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Pomegranate peel extract enhanced the nutritional, physicochemical, and microbiological qualities of yoghurt. It is a rich source of polyphenolic compounds that eliminates Staphylococcus aureus in yoghurt at 0.1% and 0.3% concentrations without altering its pH value. ABSTRACT The use of natural additives, particularly pomegranate peel extract (PPE), to

Synergistic Impacts of Co‐Exposure to Microplastics and Vibrio harveyi on the Immune and Stress Responses of the Big‐Belly Seahorse Hippocampus abdominalis

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
Synergistic effects of microplastic and Vibrio harveyi co‐exposure on big‐belly seahorse (Hippocampus abdominalis). Seahorses were exposed to microplastics (50 beads/L of 0.2 μm SMP and 1.0 μm LMP) and injected with V. harveyi (1 × 103 CFU/mL).
