Описание:
Polyphenols in Plants: Isolation, Purification and Extract Preparation provides insight into how the polyphenols that occur naturally in plants can be affected during growth and development, and then effectively removed and optimized, before being implemented in food production.
Historically plants have been the major sources for drugs and health promotion. There are a small number of nutrients. However, the growing focus is on the very diverse, complex ring structures, polyphenols that are not nutritious. To study or use them in patient treatment the polyphenols need to be isolated, identified, and purified for use and study. This book will bring together experts that will update their continuing study of ways to isolate and purify polyphenols as well as determine their structures and composition. In addition, some will update their previous summaries with new research by others as well as themselves.
Plant scientists and dietary supplement producers will be particularly interested in assessing polyphenol content and factors impacting their composition, to select sources and regulate environmental conditions affecting yield for more consistent and functional dietary supplements.
Fully revised and updated with 12 new chapters including extraction optimization, additional plant varieties and recent technology advances
Develops understanding of isolation, characterization and identification of critical polyphenols vital to industrial development as therapies
Defines conditions of growth affecting the polyphenol levels
Describes assay and instrumentation techniques critical to identifying and defining polyphenols, vital to researchers and business development
Provides insights into potential dangers and importance to the dietary supplement industry, government regulators and lay public users

Описание: Our lives and well being intimately depend on the exploitation of the plant genetic resources available to our breeding programs. Therefore, more extensive exploration and effective exploitation of plant genetic resources are essential prerequisites for the release of improved cultivars. Accordingly, the remarkable progress in genomics approaches and more recently in sequencing and bioinformatics offers unprecedented opportunities for mining germplasm collections, mapping and cloning loci of interest, identifying novel alleles and deploying them for breeding purposes. This book collects 48 highly interdisciplinary articles describing how genomics improves our capacity to characterize and harness natural and artificially induced variation in order to boost crop productivity and provide consumers with high-quality food. This book will be an invaluable reference for all those interested in managing, mining and harnessing the genetic richness of plant genetic resources.

Описание:
Postharvest Ripening Physiology of Crops is a comprehensive interdisciplinary reference source for the various aspects of fruit ripening and postharvest behavior. It focuses on the postharvest physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology of ripening and provides an overview of fruits and vegetables, including chapters on the postharvest quality of ornamental plants and molecular biology of flower senescence.
It describes various developments that have taken place in the last decade with respect to identifying and altering the function of ripening-related genes. Taking clues from studies in grape and tomato as model fruits, the book reviews a few case studies and gives you a detailed account of molecular regulation of fruit ripening, and signal transduction and internal atmospheres in relation to fruit ripening. It also presents an overview of methods utilized in fruit proteomics, as well as a global proteome and systems biology analysis of fruits during ripening, and discusses the basics of dormancy, its molecular and physiological basis, and methods to break the dormancy.
The book provides an overview of the most important metabolic pathways and genes that control volatile biosynthesis in model fruits, including tropical, subtropical, and temperate fruits, with a special emphasis on fruit ripening and the role of ethylene during this process. It presents a brief description of the composition of volatiles in various fruit species and addresses the influences of preharvest factors and postharvest technologies on fruit aroma, basic mechanisms responsible for postharvest flavor change in fresh produce, and the potential impacts of various postharvest technologies on flavor.
Автор: Les Levidow, Susan Carr Название: GM Food on Trial: Testing European Democracy ISBN: 0415655013 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780415655019 Издательство: Taylor&Francis Рейтинг: Цена: 6123.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: This book examines European institutions being `put on trial` for how their regulatory procedures evaluate and regulate genetically-modified products. Levidow highlights how public controversy created a legitimacy crisis, leading to national policy changes and demands, in turn stimulating changes in EU agbiotech regulations as a strategy to regain legitimacy.
Postharvest Physiology and Biochemistry of Fruits and Vegetables presents an updated, interrelated and sequenced view of the contribution of fruits and vegetables on human health, their aspects of plant metabolism, physical and chemical/compositional changes during the entire fruit development lifecycle, the physiological disorders and biochemical effects of modified/controlled atmospheres, and the biotechnology of horticultural crops. The book is written specifically for those interested in preharvest and postharvest crop science and the impact of physiological and biochemical changes on their roles as functional foods.
Deals with the developmental aspects of the lifecycle in whole fruits
Describes issues, such as the morphology and anatomy of fruits, beginning with the structural organization of the whole plant and explaining the fruit structure and its botanical classification
Addresses biotechnological concepts that control firmness, quality and the nutritional value of fruits
