MdMYB10 gene expression results in accumulation of anthocyanin in many tissues including flesh of applefruit. The MdMYB1 and MdMYBA genes are close homologues to MdMYB10 gene and both are responsiblefor red color phenotype in apple fruit skin. In the current study, an apple genome sequence draft analysisindicated that these three genes are located in a unique contig. Further a...

The effect of aqueous solution of citric acid (CA) on the lipid stability of the European catfish (Silurus glanis) fillets during frozen storage (up to 6 months) was investigated. Rancidity development was measured by several biochemical indices (free fatty acids, peroxides and TBA) and complemented by the measurement of expressible moisture and sensory evaluation (flesh odor, consistency and f...

The effect of pH and temperature on the stability and visual colour of aqueous anthocyanin (ACY) extracts from purpleand red-flesh potatoes was evaluated and compared to commercial ACY extracts from grape and purple carrot. Extracts from purple carrot and redflesh potatoes showed higher stability than grape and purple-flesh potato extracts. Stability to pH (63) and thermal degradation of extrac...

The aim of this study was to investigate changes in the microbiological and physiochemical characteristics in Egyptian salted-fermented fish (Feseikh) during processing, ripening and storage. Isolation of total viable bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae, lipolytic bacteria, proteolytic bacteria, total spore forming bacteria (CFU/g) and Clostridium perfringens (MPN) from fish flesh, fish intestine and ...

We examined the inhibitory effect of the extract of kakrol extracted by 3 types of solvent (water, 50% and 100% ethanol) on histamine release in human basophilic KU812 cells. The water extract of kakrol flesh showed the strongest inhibitory effect on histamine release as compared with the other extracts. Therefore, we evaluated whether water extract of kakrol flesh had a suppressive effect on d...

Executable code existed centuries before the invention of the computer in magic, Kabbalah, musical composition and experimental poetry. These practices are often neglected as a historical pretext of contemporary software culture and electronic arts. Above all, they link computations to a vast speculative imagination that encompasses art, language, technology, philosophy and religion. These spec...
