Biostimulants are among the natural preparations that improve general health, vitality, and growth of plants protect them against infections. They can be successfully used in both agri- horticultural crops. The main active substances such humic fulvic acids, protein hydrolysates, compounds containing nitrogen, seaweed extracts, beneficial fungi, bacteria. Biostimulant formulations may single- or multi-component, but synergic action several different components has been observed. Many groups...
Raman and Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used for assessment of structural differences celluloses various origins. Investigated were: bacterial cultured in presence pectin and/or xyloglucan, as well commercial cellulose extracted from apple parenchyma. FT-IR spectra were to estimate the Iβ content, whereas evaluate degree crystallinity cellulose. The index (XCRAMAN%) varied −25% 53% microcrystalline Considering cellulose, addition xyloglucan has an impact on percentage...
The nanostructure of polysaccharides is supposed to determine properties such as stiffness or diffusivity cell walls and their functionality for various tailored food. However, at present, a relation these nano-properties with sensory texture firmness remains some degree unknown. In this work, water (WSP), calcium chelator (CSP) sodium carbonate (DASP) soluble pectins, hemicellulose cellulose, extracted from two pear cultivars 'Xenia' 'Conference' harvest times, were studied. An atomic force...
We present a case study report into nutritional competition between Trichoderma spp. isolated from wild raspberries and fungal phytopathogenic isolates (Colletotrichum sp., Botrytis Verticillium sp. Phytophthora sp.), which infect soft fruit ecological plantations. The was evaluated on the basis of potentiates. Namely, these were consumption growth, calculated substrate utilization located Biolog® Filamentous Fungi (FF) plates. niche size, total overlap competitiveness indices along with...
Lipases are enzymes that catalyze various types of reactions and have versatile applications. Additionally, lipases the most widely used class in biotechnology organic chemistry. can be produced by a wide range organisms including animals, plants microorganisms. Microbial more stable, they substrate specificity lower production cost as compared to other sources these enzymes. Although commercially available biocatalysts, there still many challenges concerning microbial with use renewable...
Pectin, a complex polysaccharide found in plant cell walls, plays crucial role various industries due to its functional properties. The diluted alkali-soluble pectin (DASP) fractions that result from the stepwise extraction of apples and carrots were studied evaluate their structural rheological Homogalacturonan rhamnogalacturonan I, different proportions, main domains composed DASP both materials. Atomic force microscopy revealed molecules apple longer more branched. A persistence length...
Biospeckle is nondestructive optical technique based on the analysis of variations laser light scattered from biological samples. activity reflects state investigated object. In this study relation biospeckle (BA) with firmness, soluble solids content (SSC), titratable acidity (TA) and starch (SC) during shelf life seven apple cultivars was studied. The results showed that quality attributes change significantly storage. Significant pronounced positive correlation between BA SC found. This...
The Young's modulus of the primary cell walls pears decreases linearly during pre-harvest on-tree maturation and increases postharvest storage, does not correlate with firmness fruit. determination mechanical properties is indispensable for understanding mechanism physiological softening deterioration quality fruits storage. from pear fruit (Pyrus communis L., cultivars 'Conference' 'Xenia') storage in an ambient atmosphere at 2 °C followed by shelf life was studied using atomic force...
The role of xyloglucan (XG) in the cell wall plants and its technological usability depends on several factors, pertaining to molecular structure. Therefore, goal this study was evaluate nano-structure self-assembly XG by atomic force microscopy (AFM). As model, a non-modified from tamarind seed (
