Evaluation of Wild, Wine, Table, and Raisin Grapevine ( < em > Vitis < /em > spp.) Genotypes in Gedeo Zone, Southern Ethiopia
ScientificWorldJournal. 2022 Jan 29;2022:6852704. doi: 10.1155/2022/6852704. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTGrapevine is one of the major horticultural crops of the world with the cultivated area exceeding 7.5 million ha used for a myriad of products ranging through fresh table grape, preserves, juice, wine, and raisins. The main objective of this study was to introduce twenty-eight grapevine cultivars (ten wild, ten wine, four table, and four raisin grapes) into Gedeo Zone for the first time and ampelographically characterize them in Dilla and Yirgacheffe agroecological conditions in Gedeo Zone, Southern Ethiopia, from August 2...

Phytochemical contents of different parts of the seeded raisins from the South-East Anatolia: Enzyme inhibitory potential of pulp extracts
In this study, some phytochemical properties of six seeded raisin species that are mainly cultivated in Southeastern Anatolia were investigated. Additionally, some physical and quality characteristics, phenolic contents (by LC-MS/MS; Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass / Mass Spectrometer System), anticholinesterase, and antioxidant capacities (DPPH; 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free-radical scavenging, ABTS; 2,2-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid cation-radical scavenging activity and CUPRAC; cupric reducing antioxidant capacity) of the cultivars were investigated on ground raisins. In all three methods, the...

Induction of the Viable but Non-Culturable State in < em > Salmonella < /em > Contaminating Dried Fruit
Appl Environ Microbiol. 2021 Nov 3:AEM0173321. doi: 10.1128/AEM.01733-21. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSalmonella can become viable but non-culturable (VBNC) in response to environmental stressors but the induction of the VBNC state in Salmonella contaminating ready-to-eat dried fruit is poorly characterized. Dried apples, strawberries and raisins were mixed with a five-strain cocktail of Salmonella at 4% volume per weight of dried fruit at 109 CFU/g. The inoculated dried fruit were then dried in desiccators at 25°C until the water activity (aw) approximated that of the uninoculated dried fruit. However, Salmonella could...

Carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk assessment induced by pesticide residues in commercially available ready-to-eat raisins of Iran based on Monte Carlo Simulation
This study was undertaken to analyze 57 pesticides residues in 60 commercially available ready-to-eat packed raisins samples from Iran's markets using Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe (QuEChERS) approach along with acetonitrile for the extraction, surface adsorbents for clean-up procedure, following with an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). Moreover, the probabilistic health risk assessment includes non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risk were estimated by hazard quotient (HQ), Hazard Index (HI) and cancer risk (CR) using the Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) meth...
