Supercritical fluid extraction from hops (Humulus lupulus L.) can be used to extract essential oil for the flavoring of beer. With a special focus on the oil composition being linked to the hop aroma, the influence of pressure and temperature on the extraction kinetics of seven oil components...

HOP ADDITION | Does first wort hopping during lautering have a positive influence on the yield of bitter substances and on the beer quality? What kinds of results are currently possible through the use of hop pellets? The authors analyzed nine beers from brewing trials for bitter substances, aroma...

Humulus lupulus (commonly known as hop) is an herbaceous plant that is used in brewing throughout the world. Hop cones are an essential ingredient in the production of beer, which makes hops of critical importance to global craft beverage industries. The hop cyst nematode, Heterodera humuli, is a...

Background: The present article considers the influence of malt with various adjuncts on beer organic compounds and taste profile composition, with more attention paid to the phenol complex change. The topic under consideration is relevant since it studies the interactions of phenolic compounds...

BackgroundClinical research in natural product-based psychopharmacology has revealed a variety of promising herbal medicines that may provide benefit in the treatment of mild mood disorders, however failed to unambiguously indicate pharmacologically active constituents. The emerging role of the...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) constitutes a major health hazard in Egypt and globally for its high prevalence. This study is designed to evaluate the anti-carcinogenic effect of rosemary and hops on hepatocellular carcinoma experimentally induced in rats using cisplatin as standard chemotherapy....

Humulus lupulus L. is a dioecious herbaceous perennial plant with a climbing habit, whose female inflorescences, commonly known as cones, produce and accumulate bitter substances and essential oils. The present study aimed to assess the adaptability of some American hop varieties (Cascade, Chinook, ...

Studies on wild and landrace hops from the Canadian Maritimes are scarce. This study was undertaken to broaden the genetic base of hops and to assess the reaction of the generated variants to downy mildew (DM) disease. A landrace hop (PE Royalty (P-RL)) and a commercial cultivar (Alpharoma) were...

Loigolactobacillus backii is an important beer-spoiling species, exhibiting high hop tolerance. Here, we present the annotated whole genome sequence of two recently isolated strains, Lg. backii KKP 3565 and KKP 3566. Firstly, to study the genetic basis of the persistence of the two isolates in...

Paramyrothecium foliicola is reported for the first time in Brazil and worldwide causing leaf spots on hop (Humulus lupulus). The fungus was identified with a combination of morphological and molecular information. The pathogenicity of P. foliicola to hop was demonstrated through inoculations under ...
