Physiological and proteomic approaches to address the active role of ozone in kiwifruit post-harvest ripening
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
Post-harvest ozone application has recently been shown to inhibit the onset of senescence symptoms on fleshy fruit and vegetables; however, the exact mechanism of action is yet unknown. To characterize the impact of ozone ...
NMR characterization and dynamics of vanadium(V) complexes with tripod (hydroquinonate/phenolate) iminodiacetate ligands in aqueous solution
(IUPAC, 2009)
Reaction of NH 4VO 3 with (phenolate/hydroquinonate) iminodiacetate tripod ligands in aqueous solution in the pH range 7-8 results in the isolation of three new dioxido vanadium(V) complexes, one dinuclear (NH 4) 4{(V VO) ...
Survival of Pseudoperonospora cubensis sporangia exposed to solar radiation
(Wiley, 2010)
To determine the effects of solar radiation on the survival of sporangia of Pseudoperonospora cubensis, the cause of cucurbit downy mildew, detached sporangia of P. cubensis were either exposed to the sun or placed in the ...
Evidence of major gene(s) affecting milk traits in the Chios sheep breed
(Elsevier B.V., 2012)
This study investigates the mode of inheritance and estimates the genetic parameters of
milk yield, milk fat content, and litter weight at birth in Chios sheep breed. A complex
pedigree and repeated records for milk and ...
Transcriptome analysis approaches for the isolation of trichome-specific genes from the medicinal plant Cistus creticus subsp. creticus
(Springer Netherlands, 2008)
Cistus creticus subsp. creticus is a plant of intrinsic scientific interest due to the distinctive pharmaceutical properties of its resin. Labdane-type diterpenes, the main constituents of the resin, exhibit considerable ...
Low-Temperature winemaking by thermally dried immobilized yeast on delignified brewer's spent grains
(Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology, University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia, 2011)
Preservation, risk of contamination, transportation and storage costs (e.g. refrigeration) are the main problems associated with wet, active starter cultures such as yeast. To deal with these aspects, drying of commercial ...
The effect of postharvest ripening on strawberry bioactive composition and antioxidant potential
(Society of Chemical Industry, 2011)
Background: The aim of the present work was to evaluate the phytochemical profile and the antioxidant activity of strawberry fruit (cv. Camarosa) upon postharvest ripening at room temperature (20 °C) and to correlate them ...
Clarification of high-added value products from olive mill wastewater
(Elsevier, 2010)
The objective of the current study is to investigate the clarification of two high-added value products (pectin containing solution and phenol containing beverage) recovered from olive mill wastewater. For this purpose, ...
Oxidative and nitrosative signaling in plants: Two branches in the same tree?
(Landes bioscience, 2011)
Reactive oxygen species (rOS) and reactive nitrogen species (rNS) constitute key features underpinning the dynamic nature of cell signaling systems in plants. Despite their importance in many aspects of cell biology, our ...
Nanofiltration of brackish groundwater by using a polypiperazine membrane
(Elsevier, 2012)
The purpose of the current study is to investigate the nanofiltration of brackish groundwater by using a polypiperazine membrane. The latter is a polymeric three-layer thin film with an active layer of semi-aromatic/aliphatic ...
