Cu(II)-organic acid (fraction I) and Cu(I)-thiol (fraction II) complexes can suppress sulfhydryl off-aromas in wine. This study investigated the impact of light exposure on the protective fractions of Cu of bottled white wine. Fluorescent light-exposed Chardonnay with two initial concentrations of dissolved oxygen (0.5 and 10 mg/L) was stored in different coloured bottles and concentrations of Cu fractions and riboflavin, a photo-initiator at 370-440 nm, were measured during 110 days storage. Light-exposed wines with lower oxygen concentrations resulted in a 100-fold decrease in the Cu fraction I half-life, and a 60-fold decrease for Cu fractions I and II combined. The half-life for Cu fraction I decay during light exposure was extended 30-fold with the use of brown compared to flint glass. Light exposure can rapidly exhaust the protective Cu fractions in wine, and bottles with less light transmission below 440 nm can slow this loss.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Ischemic stroke (IS) is a major cause of mortality. Inflammation exerts an essential part of brain-heart communication after IS. Naoxintong capsules (NXT), derived from the classical Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formulation Bu-Yang-Huan-Wu-Tang, are extensively employed in China to manage IS, myocardial infarction (MI), and atherosclerosis.

This study examined the impact of long-term manure organic fertilizer application (3, 8, 13, 18, and 22 years) on soil physicochemical properties, heavy metal (HM) accumulation, and microbial communities. Long-term manure application markedly elevated nutrient levels such as available N, P and K, and organic matter content in surface and soil profile. Total and DTPA-HM content in different vertical profiles increased with the application time.

This study investigated the antihyperglycemic potential of a hydroalcoholic extract from Syzygium malaccense leaves (E-SM) and isolate phenolic compounds with antioxidant and cytotoxic activities through a bioguided assay. The aim was to explore the therapeutic properties of S. malaccense in managing hyperglycemia and oxidative stress-related conditions.

Transmission of plant viruses that replicate in the insect vector is known as persistent-propagative manner. However, it remains unclear whether such virus-vector relationships also occur between plant viruses and other biological vectors such as arthropod mites. In this study, we investigated the possible replication of orchid fleck virus (OFV), a segmented plant rhabdovirus, within its mite vector (Brevipalpus californicus s.

Wastewater surveillance programs based at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have been widely implemented, becoming a crucial measure for public health. Recently, the scope of monitoring has expanded from influent wastewater to include primary settled solids and activated sludge. The effectiveness of monitoring primary settled solids has been widely validated, but the suitability of activated sludge as a monitoring target remains unclear.
