Sustainability in bio-based edible films, coatings, and packaging integrates environmental, economic, social sustainability using renewable resources. These materials offer an eco-friendly alternative to traditional petroleum-based plastics can extend the shelf life of fruits. The wine industry’s by-products, rich bioactive compounds, create films coatings. However, some challenges limitations may occur. Producing coatings on a commercial scale be challenging, requiring significant...
The phenolic compounds hydroxycinnamates, anthocyanins, flavonols, and flavan-3-ols of sweet cherry cultivars Burlat, Saco, Summit, Van harvested in 2001 2002 were quantified by HPLC-DAD. Phenolics analyzed at partially ripe stages during storage 15 ± 5 °C (room temperature) 1−2 (cool temperature). Neochlorogenic p-coumaroylquinic acids the main hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives, but chlorogenic was also identified all cultivars. 3-glucoside 3-rutinoside cyanidin major anthocyanins. Peonidin...
Leaf-level morphological and structural adaptations to reduce water loss were examined in five olive ( Olea europaea L.) tree cultivars (Arbequina, Blanqueta, Cobrançosa, Manzanilla Negrinha) growing under field conditions with low availability. Leaf measurements included leaf tissue thickness, stomatal density, area, mass per unit density of tissue, relative content, succulence, saturation deficit, content at cuticular transpiration rate. We found considerable genotypic differences among...
Water relations, leaf gas exchange, chlorophyll a fluorescence, light canopy transmittance, photosynthetic pigments and metabolites fruit quality indices of cherry cultivars 'Burlat', 'Summit' 'Van' growing on five rootstocks with differing size-controlling potentials that decrease in the order: Prunus avium L. > CAB 11E Maxma 14 Gisela 5 Edabriz, were studied during 2002 2003. Rootstock genotype affected all physiological parameters. Cherry grafted invigorating had higher values midday stem...
The impact of elevated carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]) on the quality berries, must, and red wine (with special reference to volatile composition, phenolic content, antioxidant activity) made from Touriga Franca, a native grape variety Vitis vinifera L. for Port Douro manufacturing grown in Demarcated Region Douro, was investigated during 2005 2006. Grapevines were either open-top chambers (OTC) with ambient (365 ± 10 ppm) or (500 16 [CO2] an outside plot. In general, increase did not...
