Ecotoxicology and environmental safety
Mar 9, 2020
Environment pollutants, especially those from total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), have a highly complex chemical, biological and physical impact on soils. Here we study this influence via modelling the TPH acute phytotoxicity effects on eleven sample...
Imaging sensors are largely employed in the food processing industry for quality control. Flour from malting barley varieties is a valuable ingredient in the food industry, but its use is restricted due to quality aspects such as color variations and...

The brewers' spent grain is a by-product generated during brewery process and is a potential source for arabinoxylans (AX) extraction. In the present work, the extraction and characterization of an arabinoxylan-rich fraction from brewers' spent grain...
Crop cultivar identification is fundamental for agricultural research, industry and policies. This paper investigates the feasibility of using visible/near infrared hyperspectral data collected with a miniaturized NIR spectrometer to identify cultiva...
The enormous diversity of seed traits is an intriguing feature and critical for the overwhelming success of higher plants. In particular, seed mass is generally regarded to be key for seedling development but is mostly approximated by using scanning ...
Plants have evolved diverse adaptive mechanisms to sense and respond to environmental stimuli such as cadmium stress. The regulation of gene expression plays a critical role in plant responses to abiotic stress. However, homologous genes from differe...
Rapid and reliable identification of Fusarium fungi is crucial, due to their role in food spoilage and potential toxicity. Traditional identification methods are often time-consuming and resource-intensive. This study explores the use of surface-enha...
Database : the journal of biological databases and curation

Curated resources at centralized repositories provide high-value service to users by enhancing data veracity. Curation, however, comes with a cost, as it requires dedicated time and effort from personnel with deep domain knowledge. In this paper, we ...
Evaluation of relevant seed traits is an essential part of most plant breeding and biotechnology programmes. There is a need for non-destructive, three-dimensional assessment of the morphometry, composition, and internal features of seeds. Here, we i...
