Our previous study reported that Saccharomyces cerevisiae could induce calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitation, but the associated mechanism was unclear. In the present study, Saccharomyces cerevisiae was cultured under various conditions, including the presence of different organic acids and initial pH, and the yields of CaCO3 formation induced by...

Beekeepers can use a variety of treatments against Varroa destructor, the parasitic mite of Apis mellifera. However, sustainable and easy-to-use solutions are still scarce, considering the complexity of reaching the parasite alone. Current treatments involve soft acaricides, although their mechanism of action is not well understood. We investigated...

Black fruits, especially blackberries and black currants, are highly appreciated by consumers due to their nutraceutical properties, which have reported health benefits. This study aimed to assess the fruit quality of the blackberry (cv. Čačanska Bestrna) and black currant (cv. Čačanska Crna) created at the Fruit Research Institute, Čačak (Republic...

The focus of this experiment was to compare the color and metabolic profile of apple juice from the red-fleshed cultivar ‘Baya Marisa’ with the white-fleshed cultivar ‘Golden Delicious’. The changes in the phenolic compounds, organic acids, and sugar content during high-temperature short-time pasteurization and after one year of storage under diffe...

Size and weight are one of the most important quality factors of strawberries along with color and taste. Based on these factors, the fruit can be marked as non-marketable as fresh fruit and culled or used for further processing, even though it provides a desirable taste and colour. In this study, differences in composition among fruit of different...

Peculiar chemical, mechanical, and magnetic properties make cobalt a key metal for a variety of “hot” applications like the cathode production of Li-ion batteries. Cobalt is also the preferred metallic binder for tungsten carbide tool manufacturing. The recent increasing criticality of cobalt and tungsten is driving the interest of manufacturers an...

The current approach to gluconic acid production is acetification at 30°C, a temperature that can be difficult to maintain in tropical countries. This study investigated the production of gluconic acid during acetification by Acetobacter aceti WK at high temperatures. An acid-tolerant and thermotolerant species, A. aceti WK, was used for acetificat...

The distribution of primary and secondary metabolites within a fruit can affect its nutritional and organoleptic quality, as fruit can vary in size and shape. This study investigated the differences in the distribution of the primary and secondary metabolites in the fruit of four strawberry cultivars (‘Asia’, ‘Clery’, ‘Frederica’, and ‘Sandra’) tha...

Introduction During the 20th century, the worldwide genetic diversity of wheat was sharply eroded by continual selection for high yields and industry demands for particular standardized qualities. A collection of Israeli and Palestinian landraces (IPLR) was established to represent genetic diversity, accumulated for ten millennia under diverse envi...

Over the last years, we observed a significant increase in the number of published studies that focus on the synthesis and characterization of deep eutectic solvents (DESs). These materials are of particular interest mainly due to their physical and chemical stability, low vapor pressure, ease of synthesis, and the possibility of tailoring their pr...
