In this work, immature green tomatoes were exposed to different doses of either PL or UV-C
irradiation (1-8 J/cm 2) and then stored at 20±2° C for up to 21 days. The effects of light …

The extensive use of chemical fertilizers is responsible for numerous environmental
problems including low food quality, soil degradation, and toxicity to beneficial living …

The accumulation and trophic transfer of nanoparticle (NP) or bulk CeO2 through a
terrestrial food chain was evaluated. Zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.) was planted in soil with 0 …

Cysteine (Cys) and α-lipoic acid (ALA) are naturally occurring antioxidants (sulfur-containing
