Physical and physiological characteristics, as well as miRNA concentrations, are affected by the storage time of tomatoes.

This study aims to investigate the potential of miRNA measurements in indicating tomato quality during transportation and storage. The impact of storage temperature, duration, and mechanical loading on tomato senescence, carotenoid content, total soluble solids, fruit firmness, and relevant miRNA concentrations were examined. Significant two-way or three-way interactions were observed between storage conditions and physical/physiological characteristics (excluding carotenoids).

The Scorching Truth: Investigating the Impact of Heatwaves on Selangor's Elderly Hospitalisations.

Global climate change has contributed to the intensity, frequency, and duration of heatwave events. The association between heatwaves and elderly mortality is highly researched in developed countries. In contrast, heatwave impact on hospital admissions has been insufficiently studied worldwide due to data availability and sensitivity.

A study on the energy and exergy of Ohmic heating (OH) process of sour orange juice using an artificial neural network (ANN) and response surface methodology (RSM).

The nonmodern statistical methods are often unusable for modeling complex and nonlinear calculations. Therefore, the present research modeled and investigated the energy and exergy of the ohmic heating process using an artificial neural network and response surface method (RSM). The radial basis function (RBF) and the multi-layer perceptron (MLP) networks were used for modeling using sigmoid, linear, and hyperbolic tangent activation functions.

The use of CT scan imaging technique to determine pear bruise level due to external loads.

X-ray computed tomography (CT) is an effective noninvasive tool to visualize fresh agricultural commodities' internal components and quality attributes, also imaging via X-ray CT is a non-destructive and well-developed method applied in measuring the internal effects of agricultural products. In the present research, 120 healthy pears with their health verification through the CT were selected. Next, 81 healthy pears were selected and subjected to quasi-static and dynamic loading.
