In this investigation, the effect of polyethylene film covered with essential oils of thyme and savory in order to control the lipid oxidation of rainbow trout fillet during short-term refrigerated storage was studied. Sensory and lipid quality indices were assessed in 3 day intervals and compared with control samples. The hydrolytic corruption was limited using essential oils in the packaging films. The higher values of conjugated diene in control samples showed further development of lipid deterioration. After covering the film with essential oils of thyme and savory, increasing the primary products of lipid oxidation was inhibited, respectively, until days 12 and 15. The secondary lipid oxidation product rate was limited after using essential oils in packaging films. Using essential oils, the taste and overall acceptance of the product were enhanced. During the storage period, the value of sensory evaluating indices was decreased in all samples while the change rate progressed much more in control samples.
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONSCovering of polyethylene film with essential oils of thyme (Thymus daenensis Celak) and savory (Satureja bachtiarica Bunge) for lipid oxidation control in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fillets during short-term storage in the refrigerator.
Changes in root growth and metabolism of P in tomato cultivars are necessary in acidic soils in tropical and subtropical regions in response to P deficiency. This increase in the efficiency of phosphorus absorption by tomatoes can significantly reduce the doses of phosphate fertilizers used, as well as, possibly, the more immediate use of P fixed in the soil matrix, with favorable effects on agricultural sustainability, promoting the use of marginal areas in terms of soil fertility, and the national fertilizer economy. The tested hypothesis was that there would be no difference in the uptake and utilization of P by tomato cultivars; therefore, this study investigated the variation in the dynamics of absorption and efficiency of P-use through changes in the root, stem, leaf, gas exchange, and P-use efficiency in tomato cultivars contrasting P-absorption. The experimental design comprised a factorial scheme consisting of two cultivars that were tolerant and sensitive to P deficiency and three P concentrations (control, moderate deficiency, and severe deficiency). P limitation in the tolerant cultivar promoted high dry matter concentration (root, stem, and leaf), leaf area, root volume, nutrient translocation, rate of leaf gas exchange, and efficiency under P-deficiency stress. It was concluded from the research that the variation in the dynamics of absorption and efficiency of P use of the tolerant cultivar increased the production of roots, leaves, and leaf gas exchange under P stress conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
