malondialdehyde, etc ; food chemistry; metabolites; microstructure; muscles; tail; Show all 6 Subjects
Abstract:
... The quality changes in tilapia belly muscle (BM), dorsal muscle (DM) and tail muscle (TM) were studied and the hypothesis of browning of the fillets was revealed during partial freezing. Compared with DM and TM groups, BM samples had higher thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) (0.41 mg malondialdehyde eq/kg at 49 d) and K values (61.81% at 42 d) (P < 0.05). The microstructure of the BM ...

Abstract:
... Point source effluent discharges from industries are major sources of pollutants in aquatic ecosystems. In this study, the whole effluent testing approach was used to assess the toxicity of paint industry effluents to fish. Effluents were collected from three paint industries at point of discharge into the environment. Bioassay procedures were used to assess the toxicity of the effluents to fish. ...

Abstract:
... Little is known about relation between cold-induced sweetening (CIS) resistance and antioxidant activity of Irish potato (Solanum tuberosum L) tubers during cold storage. Tuber ends produce more CIS than the rest of the tuber, and ends vary for dry matter and carbohydrate metabolism during storage but have not been sufficiently studied for antioxidants. Antioxidant activity of basal and apical tub ...

Abstract:
... The toxicological impacts of microplastics (MPs) and antibiotics in the soil environment have gradually drawn widespread attention, while little research has focused on the combined pollution of MPs and antibiotics on plants. In this work, a 21-day hydroponic study was conducted to test the hypothesis that polystyrene MPs (0.1, 1 and 10 μm particle sizes, 50 mg/L) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) (1.0 and ...

Abstract:
... Environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs) have attracted extensive attention due to their potential toxicity. However, EPFRs-containing particles always coexist with their parent organic contaminants and intermediate degradation products (IM), which may have hindered the toxicity assessment of EPFRs. In this study, the toxicity of EFFRs was specifically verified after comparing the systems ...

Abstract:
... The study aimed to determine the efficiency of advanced chelate compounds-based trace minerals (OTM) in laying hens. Laying hens (240, 32 weeks old) were assigned to one of the following five groups: NOTM (no added trace minerals), CONTM (standard mineral salts), and three experimental groups in which chelates were used to replace 33, 66, and 100% of mineral salts (OTM33, OTM66, and OTM100, respec ...

Abstract:
... The carbonyl trapping activity of bound-polyphenol rich insoluble dietary fiber (BP-IDF) from different whole grains and underlying mechanism of these BP-IDF actions were studied under simulated physiological conditions. We found that the black highland barley BP-IDF exhibited the most pronounced effect in scavenging carbonyls by trapping 88.7%, 72.2%, 95.7%, and 31.4% for methylglyoxal, glyoxal, ...

Abstract:
... To clarify the influence of organic pesticides on phytoremediation of potentially toxic metal elements, hydroponically-grown Acorus tatarinowii was used to repair copper pollution at six concentration levels with and without atrazine. Removal outcomes and processes exhibited asymmetry in an aquatic system. In plants, the addition of atrazine brought as much as 20.5% copper than control. Total amou ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Iron (Fe) is an essential mineral element that involves in many biological processes important for most plants growth and development. Fe-deficiency induces a complex series of responses in plants, involving physiological and developmental changes, to increase Fe uptake from soil. However, the molecular mechanism involved in plant Fe-deficiency is not well understood. RESULTS: Here, we ...
... Plasma-activated water (PAW), the solution combined with a large number of active substances through plasma discharge. The aim of this study was to use PAW to treat goji berries and evaluate the effects of PAW treatment on storability, quality attributes and nutritive properties of goji berries during storage. The data indicated that, as compared to the control samples, PAW could increase the resp ...
... BACKGROUND: The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau is experiencing rapid climate warming, which may further affect plant growth. However, little is known about the plant physiological response to climate change. RESULTS: Here, we select the Kobresia pygmaea, an important perennial Cyperaceae forage, to examine the physiological indices to temperature changes in different growing months. We determined the con ...
... BACKGROUND: Cardiac wall stress and high oxidative stress are often found in cases of myxomatous mitral valve degenerative (MMVD) disease and can lead to myocardial injuries and cardiac dysfunction. Melatonin, an antioxidant, has been shown to exert cardioprotection in laboratory animal models. However, its effect on metabolic parameters and left ventricular (LV) adaptation in MMVD dogs has rarely ...

Abstract:
... This study assessed the potential and mechanism of action of astaxanthin, to improve the stability of docosahexaenoic acid (22:6(n-3); DHA) enriched egg products, during storage at 4 °C. The reduction in DHA content after 42 days of storage in astaxanthin-DHA eggs (from hens fed supplemental astaxanthin and DHA) was <3%, whereas the reduction in regular-DHA eggs (hens fed DHA only) was over 17%. A ...
... The protective effects of thymoquinone on learning and memory abilities and on hippocampal oxidative stress in rats exposed to 900 MHz electromagnetic field radiation at s strength of 6.0 ± 0.5 V/m for 1 h on each of 15 days was studied. Thymoquinone-treatment (10 mg/kg/day) of radiation-exposed rats resulted in better performance than that of radiation-exposed rats not receiving thymoquinone. Ele ...
... Thiamethoxam is an insecticide mainly used in agriculture to control insect pests. However, non-target insect species, such as honeybees, may also be impacted. In this study, adults of Apis mellifera intermissa were orally exposed under laboratory conditions to a sublethal concentration of thiamethoxam (CL₂₅₌ 0.17 ng/μl) for 9 days and the effects were evaluated at the biochemical level, by monito ...
... The degradation of trout and bovine hemoglobin (Hb) and their pro-oxidant activities in washed cod muscle mince (WCM) were studied using simple pH-shifts to simulate gastrointestinal (GI) conditions (pH 7 → 6 → 3 → 7), as well as full static in vitro GI digestion. Following gastric acidification to pH 6, metHb formation increased, especially for trout Hb. Subsequent acidification to pH 3 promoted ...

Abstract:
... Multivariate Accelerated Shelf-Life Testing (MASLT) and Accelerated Shelf-Life Testing (ASLT) were employed to estimate the shelf-life of postharvest shiitake mushrooms. Weight loss, color, texture profile, phenolic content, malondialdehyde (MDA) content, total aerobic plate count, water status, and organoleptic attributes of shiitake mushrooms stored at 5, 10, or 15 °C for 15 d were determined. U ...
... Although chlorobromoisocyanuric acid has been widely used in agriculture, its deleterious toxicity on aquatic organisms remains rare. In this study, zebrafish were exposed to chlorobromoisocyanuric acid (0, 30, 40, and 50 mg/L) from 10 to 96 h post‐fertilization (hpf). We found a significant reduction in immune cell numbers (neutrophils and macrophages) and the area of thymus at 96 hpf. The expres ...

Abstract:
... Present study identified WM (T1) and DCH-177(T2) as cadmium (Cd) tolerant and GCH2 (S1) and GCH4 (S2) as Cd-sensitive genotypes of castor. Cd treatment (500 μM) led to a significant decline in leaf and root biomass, photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (C), transpiration rate (E), water use efficiency (WUE), photosynthetic pigments content, and altered chlorophyll fluorescence in S1 and ...
... Acute liver injury (ALI) is diagnosed by detection of elevated liver enzymes within six months after liver damage. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have recently been considered a beneficial strategy for treating various diseases due to holding secretory factors. Therapeutic effects of human umbilical cord MSCs-derived conditioned medium (hMSC-CM) were evaluated on CCl₄-induced ALI. Twenty-four male ...
