Comparative Analysis of the Effects of Different Cooking Methods on the Flavor and Nutritional Composition of Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.)

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Different cooking methods (pan‐frying with oil and pan‐frying without oil) will affect the flavor and nutrition of chili fruit. Pan‐frying with oil diminishes the original flavor and nutritional value of peppers, whereas pan‐frying without oil enhances the nutritional quality and preserves the freshness of peppers.

Isolation and Extraction of Gentian Polysaccharide and Its Protective Effect on Chemical Liver Injury

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
The water‐soluble polysaccharide GSBP‐N‐a‐1 with an average molecular weight of 3.82 kDa was successfully isolated and purified from Gentiana scabra. It was confirmed that the crude polysaccharides of Gentiana scabra could inhibit oxidative stress and inflammatory response by activating the Nrf2‐HO‐1 pathway, and significantly alleviate the chemical ...

ERIC: Estimating Rainfall with Commodity Doorbell Camera for Precision Residential Irrigation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Current state-of-the-art residential irrigation systems, such as WaterMyYard, rely on rainfall data from nearby weather stations to adjust irrigation amounts. However, the accuracy of rainfall data is compromised by the limited spatial resolution of rain gauges and the significant variability of hyperlocal rainfall, leading to substantial water waste ...
