Proteins serve as an imperative macronutrient in human nutrition and well-being. Their nutritional quality substantially varies with their digestibility, amino acid profile, bioavailability, processing purity. From a viewpoint, the ideal integration of proteins from diverse plant sources can supply adequate amount essential acids to fulfil health needs. The use plant-derived has recently gained momentum due multifaceted edible nonedible applications biodegradable nature. will be when...
The tomato is a member of the Solanaceae family and crop that widely cultivated around world due to its sweet, sour, salty, juicy, nutritious berries. processing tomatoes generates significant amount waste in form pomace, which includes seeds skin. Tomato are reservoirs various nutrients, such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, minerals, vitamins. These components make an important ingredient for application food matrices. This review discusses functional properties their scope utilization...
Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) is a nutritious fruit, rich in bioactive compounds, known for their health benefits. The present study attempts to evaluate nutritional (sugars, organic acids, minerals) and nutraceutical traits (total phenolics, flavonoids, carotenoids, antioxidant activity) of six commercial apricot genotypes grown India. Antioxidant activity was determined using three in-vitro assays, namely CUPRAC (cupric reducing capacity), FRAP (ferric power) DPPH...
In the current study, pectin was extracted from unexplored slimy sheath present over seed coat of jackfruit by using oxalic. Extracted (JSSP) demonstrated higher total phenolic content (65.7 mg GAE/g) than commercial pectins apple (51.3 and citrus (30.7 GAE/g). Antioxidant activity ferric reducing antioxidant power assay for JSSP also (10.4 µM) compared to (4.21–5.96 which attributed co-extraction phenolics along with JSSP. Microstructure observed scanning electron microscopy it found that...
Phytophthora infestans is a late blight-causing oomycetes pathogen. It rapidly evolves and adapts to the host background new fungicide molecules within few years of their release, most likely because predominance transposable elements in its genome. Frequent applications fungicides cause environmental concerns. Here, we developed target-specific RNA interference (RNAi)-based molecules, along with nanoclay carriers, that when sprayed on plants are capable effectively reducing blight...
