Application of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose to improve the wettability of chitosan coating and its preservation performance on tangerine fruits
Int J Biol Macromol. 2024 Mar 1:130539. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130539. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) was employed as an intermediate layer to enhance interfacial interaction between chitosan (CS) coating and tangerine fruits, thereby improving the preservation effect. Owing to the low surface tension of tangerine fruit (26.04 mN/m), CS coating solutions showed poor wetting properties on fruit peels (contact angle > 100°). However, by applying a 1.0 % (w/v) HPMC coating on fruits, the contact angle of CS solutions with concentrations of 0.5 %, 1.0 %, and 1.5 % (w/v) decreased t...

Antimicrobial activity of lipids extracted from Hermetia illucens reared on different substrates
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol. 2024 Jan 23;108(1):167. doi: 10.1007/s00253-024-13005-9.ABSTRACTAs the problem of antimicrobial resistance is constantly increasing, there is a renewed interest in antimicrobial products derived from natural sources, particularly obtained from innovative and eco-friendly materials. Insect lipids, due to their fatty acid composition, can be classified as natural antimicrobial compounds. In order to assess the antibacterial efficacy of Hermetia illucens lipids, we extracted this component from the larval stage, fed on different substrates and we characterized it. Moreover, we analyzed the fatty aci...

Characterization of prolycopene-accumulated Tan < sup > 406 < /sup > mutant of < em > Solanum lycopersicum < /em >
This study describes the characterization of the Tan406 (Tangerine406) mutant of Solanum lycopersicum. Fruits of Tan406-mutant plants have a unique orange color and accumulate prolycopene instead of lycopene. Genetic analysis revealed that a monogenic recessive mutation affects fruit pigmentation in the mutant, which inhibits the conversion of prolycopene to lycopene. Further, molecular analysis indicates that fruit phenotype is attributed to loss of CRTISO gene function, which encodes a carotenoid isomerase enzyme that converts prolycopene to lycopene. The loss of gene function is due to the deletion of 406 bp from the CR...
