(1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabolomics has been applied to study the compatible interaction between tomato plants and Tomato Mosaic Virus (ToMV). A detailed time course of metabolic fingerprinting of ToMV-inoculated and non-inoculated systemically infected tomato leaves has provided a fundamental understanding of the metabolic state of the plant not only in response to ToMV in...

nowadays the use of probiotic products especially yogurt, due to having wonderful and health properties, has become popular in the world. in this study, the effect of homogenization pressure (100, 150 and 200 bars) and stage (single and two) on the amount of lactic and acetic acids was investigated. yoghurts were manufactured from low-fat milk treated using high pressure homogenization at 100,1...

the postharvest life of cut eustoma grandiflorum flowers is limited in open flowers. therefore a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with ascorbic acid (asa) at 4 levels (0, 100, 200, 300mg l-1) and citric acid (ca) at 3 levels (0, 100, 200 mg l-1) with 3 replications and 3 samples for each replications, was conducted for this purpose. results indicated that a significa...

For millennia, transition metals have been exploited to inhibit bacterial growth. We report here the potentiation of the anti-bacterial activity of transition metals by organic acids. Strong synergy between low, non-toxic concentrations of transition metals and organic acids was observed with up to ~1000-fold higher inhibitory effect on bacterial growth. We show that organic acids shuttle trans...

fateme derakhshan-panah was born in hamedan (iran) in 1987. she received her b.s. in pure chemistry (2009) and m.s. in organic chemistry (2011) from bu-ali sina university, iran. she is currently working towards her ph.d. under the supervision of professor m. a. zolfigol. her research interest is organic methodology especially the application of solid acids and ionic liquids in organic synthesis.

A significant proportion of the carbon fixed by plants is transported to roots and exuded rhizosphere. Exudates may have important roles in rhizosphere, such as desorbing labile phosphorus (P) or mobilizing manganese (Mn) other metal cations. This study evaluated root exudation profiles seedlings 15 eucalypt species response a P shortage if ability exude organic compounds was related Mn accumul...

Certain organic carbon moieties in drinking source waters of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta can react with chlorine during disinfection to form potentially carcinogenic and mutagenic trihalomethanes. The properties of reactive organic carbon in Delta waters, particularly those of soil origin, have been poorly understood. This study attempts to characterize trihalomethane reactivity of soil or...

Many try to eat sustainably but reliable information is lacking, and environmental impact often prioritises over nutritional quality. Here we consider beneficial fatty acid profiles in steaks from 4 UK systems: non-organic, organic, certified pasture-fed conservation cattle. Most individual acids ratios considered for health (individual total omega 3, vaccenic CLA) followed a gradient, against ...

The effects of organic diets, with or without supplements of betaine, saponin, fructo-oligosaccharide and methionine, on the health, performance and gut flora of pullets were investigated. A comparison was also made between birds fed organic diets and those fed a non-organic diet. Day-old Lohmann Tradition pullets were reared in 24 groups of 64 chicks indoors until 11 weeks, and then in 48 grou...
