Resveratrol is a well-known phenolic stilbene because of its presence in several edible plants and its proposed properties that are beneficial to human health [...].

Flavonoids, including around 6000 phenolic compounds, are products of the secondary metabolism of plants which can be a part of one's diet via the consumption of many edible plants.[...].

Fish is present in the Brazilian diet and represents an important participation protein consumption. The use of highly toxic pesticides still tolerated Brazil despite being banned many parts world. This study records traces contamination by Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) at Guanabara Bay Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). Our results indicate that local production widespread such chlorinated compou...

Cherry tomato is a nutritious, but highly perishable fruit. Peach gum polysaccharides (PGPs) can form edible films with antioxidant and antibacterial activities. The effects of PGP-based edible coatings on cherry tomatoes during hypothermic storage (4 °C) were investigated. PGP-based edible coatings effectively maintained firmness, decreased weight loss, inhibited respiration rate and delayed t...

Methods for edible oil quality detection mainly have conductivity and peroxide acid value, but as for currently blending edible detection, the effect of these methods is not satisfied. In this study, we propose a cluster algorithm based on artificial fish swarm improvement to detect edible oil by voltammetric electronic tongue. It can optimize the cluster centers value and the initial value. Th...

Oysters are bivalve molluscs in the family Osteridae of the order Ostereoida and are found throughout the world. Quality of stored muscle of oyster, Crossostrea glomerata depends on the temperature and storage time. Investigation on factors responsible for spoilage of oyster meat in refrigerator (7±2°C); in term of biochemical indices, indicated that in 1-2 days the following changes will accur...

Data are presented on three edible species of tuber (<igna frutescens, Eminia entennulifa, and Ipomoea transvaalensis) consumed by Hadza foragers in northern Tanzania. These species are collected almost year-round by Hadza women but previous analyses of their macronutrient composition are variable and provide results based on the analysis of whole tuber. We examined only edible portions of tube...

Since the early 1980s the usefulness of dietary b-agonists to improve the efficiency of feed utilization and(or) to enhance carcass leanness in livestock species has been well documented. Less well documented are the pharmacokinetic properties, biotransformation pathways, and tissue residue profiles of b-agonists used to enhance leanness in experimentally or illegally treated animals. Pharmacok...
