DNA-based methodologies for the quantification of live and dead cells in formulated biocontrol products based on Pantoea agglomerans CPA-2
(Elsevier B.V., 2015)Pantoea agglomerans strain CPA-2 is an effective biocontrol agent (BCA) against the major postharvest pathogens present on pome and citrus fruits. Dehydration, such as freeze-drying, spray-drying and fluidized bed drying ... -
DNA-based methodologies to detect and quantify the postharvest biocontrol agent Pantoea agglomerans CPA-2 applied on oranges
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2016-11)Pantoea agglomerans strain CPA-2 is an effective biocontrol agent (BCA) for postharvest diseases of citrus and pome fruits. However, for registration purposes and to implement their use as effective control strategy, it ... -
Dose effect on the uptake and accumulation of hydroxytyrosol and its metabolites in target tissues in rats
(Wiley, 2015)Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is the most prominent phenolic compound of virgin olive oil and due to its scientifically validated biological activities it is entering to the market as a potentially useful supplement for cardiovascular ... -
Dry formulations of the biocontrol agent Candida sakeCPA‐1 using fluidised bed drying to control the main postharvest diseases on fruits
(John Wiley & SonsSociety of Chemical Industry, 2017-01-23)BACKGROUND: The biocontrol agent Candida sake CPA‐1 is effective against several diseases. Consequently, the optimisation of a dry formulation of C. sake to improve its shelf life and manipulability is essential for ... -
Eating quality of 'Fuji' apples affected by a period of cold air after ULO storage.
(John Wiley & Sons, 2012-02-00)Over two subsequent seasons, emission of volatile compounds, consumer acceptability and quality parameters were analyzed in “Fuji” apples. In both seasons, apples were harvested at the same maturity stage and stored for ... -
Ecophysiological characterization of Aspergillus carbonarius, Aspergillus tubingensis and Aspergillus niger isolated from grapes in Spanish vineyards
(Elsevier, 2014-03-03)The aim of this study was to evaluate the diversity of black aspergilli isolated from berries from different agroclimatic regions of Spain. Growth characterization (in terms of temperature and water activity requirements) ... -
Edible coatings to incorporate active ingredients to freshcut fruits: a review
(Elsevier, 2009)Edible films and coatings are applied on many products to control moisture transfer, gas exchange or oxidation processes. One major advantage of using edible films and coatings is that several active ingredients can be ... -
Edible coatings with antibrowning agents to maintain sensory quality and antioxidant properties of fresh-cut pears
(Elsevier, 2008)The effect of alginate-based (2%, w/v), pectin-based (2%, w/v) and gellan-based (0.5%, w/v) edible coatings containing N-acetylcysteine at 0.75% (w/v) and glutathione at 0.75% (w/v) on gas exchange, antioxidant properties, ... -
Edible films from essential-oil-loaded nanoemulsions: physicochemical characterization and antimicrobial properties
(Elsevier, 2015-05-01)Edible films including active ingredients can be used as an alternative to preserve food products. Essential oils (EOs) exhibit antimicrobial activity against pathogenic microorganisms but their low water solubility limits ... -
