Synergy of 1-MCP and hypobaric treatments prevent fermented flavour and improve consumers' acceptability of 'Shughri' pear.

Development of fermented flavour during storage reduces acceptability of Shughri pear. Therefore, the current study was designed to investigate the combined effect of 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and hypobaric treatment on stability of Shughri pear during 120 days of storage. Fruit were treated individually or combinedly with 25, 50, and 75 kilo pascal hypobaric treatments for 4 h and 1-MCP (0.

Hypobaric treatment augments the efficacy of 1-MCP in apple fruit.

This research aimed to extend the postharvest shelf life of Royal Gala apple during cold storage and maintain its market value in simulated retail conditions. Apples were treated with hypobaric pressure (50 kPa for 4 h) followed by 1-MCP (0.5 µL L, 0.

Gut inflammation exacerbates hepatic injury in C57BL/6J mice gut-vascular barrier dysfunction with high-fat-incorporated meat protein diets.

Aim: Meat and its derivatives provide nutrients essential for human health. However, meat consumption, along with excessive fat intake, has been associated with gut inflammation, intestinal barrier dysfunction and alterations in gut microbiota. Herein, we investigated whether and how these changes in the intestinal barrier system affect the gut liver axis and hepatic injury and eventually lead to the progression of liver syndrome such as NAFLD.

Chemical composition, ruminal degradation kinetics, and methane production (in vitro) of winter grass species.

Background: Information about the nutritive value, dry matter (DM) digestibility, and methane (CH ) emission potential of grass species is required for their optimal utilization in ruminant rations. The present study was designed: (i) to quantify the nutrient profile, mineral composition and in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) of winter grass species commonly available in northern Pakistan; and (ii) to measure the in vitro gas production (IVGP) and CH emission of the grass species during 72 h in vitro ruminal fermentation. Seven grass species, namely, Cenchrus ciliaris, Setaria anceps, Panicum antidotale, P.

Identification of novel glycoside hydrolases via whole genome sequencing of for production of various minor ginsenosides.

In this study, many bacterial strains were screened for the production of minor ginsenosides, but based on conversion competence among the strains, the strain BS26 has the good ginsenoside-transforming ability. Therefore, the strain BS26 was selected for complete genome sequence analysis to determine the target (glycoside hydrolase) functional genes. Whole genome analysis of strain BS26 showed 43 glycoside hydrolase genes in total.
