Food spoilage may be defined as a process or few changes that could lead to an undesirable or unacceptable product for consumption. Food stability may be hampered by the contamination of a large diversity of microbial spoilers, from prokaryotes (Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria) to unicellular (yeasts) and multicellular eukaryotes (moulds). Effective preventive measures and innovative preservation methods have been intensively studied with the aim of food spoilage reduction and food shelf life improvement. The primary focus of food preservation has been on controlling microbial populations, with a specific emphasis on pathogenic microorganisms. In the last years, innovative processes and technologies have been applied in food industry as non-conventional preservative hurdles, which also respond to consumer demand for safe minimally processed food. This paper studies the effect of radiofrequency (RF) treatment on food spoilage microorganisms.

Isolation of pure DNA is a significant component for PCR amplification and DNA fingerprinting analysis of plant species. Leaves of wild palms are generally hard, enormously fibrous, and are difficult to grind. The 25 species belong to 9 genera such as Areca (one species), Arenga (one species), Bentickia (one species), Borassus (one species), Calamus (fifteen species), Caryota (one species), Corypha (one species), Phoenix (three species) and Pinanga (one species) of the family Arecaceae and were collected from various parts of Southern India. An experiment was done to isolate the high molecular weight DNA from fibrous young leaves of twenty five wild palm species followed by several modifications in the novel CTAB DNA isolation method. DNA was isolated with slight modification in the CTAB method with liquid nitrogen and the quantification of obtained DNA was measured using a spectrophotometer and 0.8% agarose gel electrophoresis. DNA was further diluted with T10E1 buffer and optimized for ISSR-PCR amplification. Hence, the described protocol has proven to be advantageous due to its simple, efficient, affordable reagents resulting in a high molecular weight DNA of good quality from leaf fibrous tissues.

The European honey bee, Apis mellifera, as most insects of the world, is currently facing major difficulties and, particularly for honey bees, this results in significant colony losses. One of the most stressful factors for A. mellifera is the ectoparasitic mite, Varroa destructor. V. destructor invasions are largely treatable and preventable, however they bring forth great challenges to A. mellifera populations and breeders, making apiculture increasingly time and resource consuming. The global research in apiculture pathology is mostly focused on Varroa sp. This review will be focusing on the recent literature in Varroa treatment, prevention and parasite - host interaction.

The aim of the present study is to observe the capacity of adventitious organogenesis of leaves and stem segments of six cultivars of highbush blueberry. The effect of WPM cultural medium enriched with 3 mg/l zeatin, 3 mg/l zeatin ribozoid and 2 mg/l 2-iP on the regeneration potential, average and total regeneration rates was assessed. Direct organogenesis is different for individual genetic types of genus Vaccinium. The regenerative response in most of the variants is in favour of the stem segments as explant sources. The highest average number of regenerants was recorded in leaf segments of 'Bluejay' genotype - 5.6 numbers/explant at Azr medium.

Plants are widely used for the development of new products for cosmetics and pharmaceutical applications. In recent years, it is increasingly recognized that the active properties of plant extracts, which are usually complex mixtures of many components, are not due to the activity of a single component, but is the result of the synergistic effects of the elements of the mixture. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of a poly-herbal formulation based on Daucus carota L. and Prunus armeniaca L. to be included in cosmetics as an active ingredient. Three types of extracts were taken into consideration: hydroalcoholic, hydroglycerin and macerate in grapeseed oil. HPLC analysis revealed that the hydroalcoholic extract contains polyphenolcarboxylic acids rather than flavonoids. As regards fatty acids quantified by GC, slight differences between sample and control were recorded. The potential effect of the three extracts on murine fibroblasts was evaluated and the proliferation rate was assesed by MTS test. It was showed that none of the extracts are not exhibiting cytotoxic effects. Except for the maximum concentration tested of the hydroglycerin extract, at which the cell viability was around 50%, most of the samples exceeded the 80% threshold. In the case of the hydroglicerin extract, it was observed a strong stimulating effect on cell proliferation compared to control group. It can be concluded that this poly-herbal combination could be used successfully as cosmetic ingredient for its wound healing and regenerative properties.

Camelina (Camelina sativa) is a flower plant belonging to the family Brassicaceae, originating in Eastern Europe. Vegetable oil is not only for food use, it can also be used in many fields, such as the cosmetics industry. The oil obtained from Camelina seeds has a varied content of fatty acids with an intake of 50-60% unsaturated fatty acids, 35- 40% omega 3 content and 15-20% omega 6. It has a high content of omega 3, being one of the richest vegetable sources compared to this fatty acid. In this review, we discuss how some of the latest scientific advances such as the high content of tocopherol (E vitamin), the ability to extract lecithin from Camelina oil and the likelihood of being a replacement for the castor oil. Other approaches demonstrate the stability of Camelina oil both in the presence of synthetic and natural antioxidants. Finally, we discuss the potential of Camelina oil to be used in the cosmetics industry.

Brassica vegetables belong to the Cruciferous family and include different kinds of cabbage (white, red), cauliflower and broccoli. These vegetables are recognised for their contribution to human health and nutrition. Brassica vegetables are extensively studied, analysed and characterised lately due to their antioxidant character and antioxidant capacity. The aim of the study was to investigate the antioxidant capacity of four white cabbage varieties (ʻDe Buzăuʼ, ʻBuzoianaʼ, ʻMăguraʼ, ʻDe Işalniţaʼ). The content of total polyphenolics of fresh vegetables (Folin Ciocalteu procedure) was assessed as well as carotenoids and chlorophyll pigments (spectrophotometric methods) and vitamin C content (titrimetric assay using 2,6-dichlorphenol indophenol). The antioxidant activity of the vegetables was determined according to DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) protocol. The results showed the highest concentration of antioxidant compounds for Magura variety, while the lowest one was for De Isalnita variety. A study regarding stability of antioxidant capacity during storage for three months was performed too.

The paper aimed to present a review on the social and economic aspects of NBTs, the studies on two different species of plants, subjects of NBT's. The plants variants generated by NBTs are more readily accepted in the market and for crop improvement. In this article we will present briefly the benefits, application and expected developments, regulatory status of NBTs in and outside the EU. It was developed a system for the detection of a broad spectrum of GMOs for analysis of food/feed matrices by the characterization of transgene flanking regions and the typical combinations for transgene constructs. We will describe two different species of plants, subjects of NBTs: 1) Tomatoes for carotenoid sequestration mechanisms and the carotenoid biosynthesis. The carotenoid accumulation and changes in carotenoid profiles suggest that the plastid can adapt to changes in carotenoid content through plastid differentiation and preferential sequestration; 2) Edited maize genome by biolistic delivery of pre-assembled Cas9-gRNA ribonucleoproteins into maize embryo cells and regeneration of plants with both mutated and edited alleles. As a conclusion, CRISPR/Cas9 is the most used technology for genome editing due to its simplicity and efficiency. In this article, we aim to highlight the application of CRISPR/Cas9 technique system, like the powerful genome editing tool for crop improvement.

Candida, known as an “opportunistic” human pathogen, has coevolved with humans by persisting in mucosa and on the skin. The mechanism and factors determining the transformation of the “conolization” status into disease status is still under research. However, new preventive solutions for such events are under investigation. In our study we have tried to prove that some lactic acid bacteria (LAB), isolated from natural fermented food sources (Kombucha and fermented cocoa beans) have inhibitory effect on different species of Candida with different pathogenic potential (C. albicans, C. parapsilosis, C. krusei and C. guilliermondii). The inhibitory tests employed two different methods (transversal and radial strike). Among nine LAB strains isolated from cocoa beans fermentation, two have significant inhibitory activity against Candida parapsilosis. In the case of Kombucha source, two out of seven LAB strains have significant inhibitory activity against Candida albicans, Candida krusei and Candida parapsilosis; low level inhibition has been noticed against Candida guilliermondii. When mixing different combination of LAB from both natural sources, the anti-Candida effect was neither augmented, nor decreased.
