Nitric oxide confers cadmium tolerance in fragrant rice by modulating physio-biochemical processes, yield attributes, and grain quality traits
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2023 Jun 5;261:115078. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115078. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCadmium (Cd) stress causes serious disruptions in plant metabolism, physio-biochemical processes, crop yield, and quality characters. Nitric oxide (NO) improves the quality features and nutritional contents of fruit plants. However, how NO confers Cd toxicity in fragrant rice plants, is sparse. Hence, the present study investigated the effects of 50 µM NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on physio-biochemical processes, plant growth attributes, grain yield, and quality traits of fragrant rice under Cd stress (10...

Strawberry crinkle (SCV) and Strawberry mottle (SMoV) viruses affect yield and physio-biochemical responses of three strawberry cultivars under different seasonal conditions
CONCLUSION: It is recommended to keep the temperature of the greenhouses producing strawberry at the cooler levels to prevent the spreading of the aphid-transmitted viruses.PMID:35763182 | DOI:10.1007/s11033-022-07701-w

Tunable fluorescent carbon dots from biowaste as fluorescence ink and imaging human normal and cancer cells
Environ Res. 2021 Nov 9:112365. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2021.112365. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGrowing global biowaste and its environmental issues challenge the need for converting biowastes into a beneficial product. Among the biowaste, here kiwi fruit (Actinidia Deliciosa) peels are considered for the preparation of carbon dots (CDs). Using a green one-pot hydrothermal-carbonization method, kiwi fruit peels were effectively converted into valuable kiwi fruit peel carbon dots (KFP-CDs). The morphology, physio-chemical and optical properties of as-synthesized KFP-CDs were analyzed using various analytical techniques suc...

Evaluation of a sanitizing washing step with different chemical disinfectants for the strawberry processing industry.
Abstract Strawberries are often consumed fresh or only receive minimal processing, inducing a significant health risk to the consumer if contamination occurs anywhere from farm to fork. Outbreaks of foodborne illness associated with strawberries often involve a broad range of microbiological agents, from viruses (human norovirus) to bacteria (Salmonella spp. and Listeria monocytogenes). The addition of sanitizers to water washes is one of the most commonly studied strategies to remove or inactivate pathogens on berries as well as avoid cross contamination due to reuse of process wash water. The risk posed with the...
