The main nutrients from the potato comes from the peel, which contains an anticarcinogenic compound called photogenic acid, says Mary Ellen Camire, PhD, professor in the department of food science and human nutrition at the University of Maine in Orono. In laboratory studies, this particular acid...
the LPE-treated banana had higher pulp firmness, lower ion leakage from peel tissue, a thicker peel, and better shelf life as compared to the control [78]
antioxidant activity in banana peel extracts: testing extraction conditions and related bioactive compounds. Food Chem. 2010; 119(3):1030–9. 62. Chen W, Gong L, Guo Z, Wang W, Zhang H, Liu X, et al. A novel integrated method for large-scale detection, identification, and quantification...
banana peel extract (Bankar et al., 2010), basil (Ahmad et al., 2010), betel leaf extract (Sneha et al., 2010)and cumin seed extract (Sneha et al., 2011)have been successfully used for the synthesis of AuNPs with desired characteristics. In addition, recent studies have also shown th...
The concentrations of free amino acids in the peel and pulp of banana (Musa sp., AAA group, Cavendish subgroup, cv. Valery) fruit during ripening at 22 degrees C were measured. All 20 amino acids were quantified at seven distinct ripening stages as defined by measures of internal ethylene,...
[45]. Particularly, the LPE-treated banana had higher pulp firmness, lower ion leakage from peel tissue, a thicker peel, and better shelf life as compared to the control [78]. Thus, it can be concluded that fruits with a higher content of lysolipids, particularly LPE 18:1, have better...
Besides, some other studies have shown that lignin metabolism is closely associated with the process of juice sac granulation [13,14,16,26]. In this study, RNA-sequencing technology was used to further confirm that the fruit granulation of late-ripening navel orange is closely related to cell ...
To conclude, although some studies have investigated the UV-B-induced upregulation of phenylpropanoid genes in different fruit species, no previous works focused on the transcriptomic modifications in the peel of UV-B-exposed peach fruit and their correlation with the content of phenolic compounds. ...
