The Caco-2 cellular permeability of phenolic aqueous extracts from blackcurrant press cake (BC), Norway spruce bark (NS), scots pine bark (SP), and sea buckthorn leaves (SB) was evaluated by combining high-resolution mass spectrometry and atomic force microscopy. Besides, Caco-2 and HepG2 cells...

The experiments were conducted in the city of Moscow, on the territory of the Educational, Scientific, and Production Center named after V. I. Edelstein "Michurinsky Garden" FSBEI HE "RSAU-Moscow Agricultural Academy named after K.A. Timiryazev" and Field experimental station in the period...

The application of low-temperature, dehumidified air-assisted spray drying was evaluated as a method to produce carrier-free powders of selected sugar-rich and acid-rich food materials: blackcurrant juice concentrate, mango puree, purple carrot juice concentrate, sauerkraut juice, kiwiberry pulp,...

Plant species show large variation in the composition and content of their tannins and other polyphenols. These large metabolites are not easy to measure accurately, but they are important factors for species bioactivity and chemotaxonomy. Here, we used an automated group-specific UHPLC-DAD-MS/MS...

Black canker, caused by fungi of the genus Diplodia, poses an increasing threat to pome fruit production in Germany. In order to determine the spread of the disease in Germany, 423 bark samples with suspicious symptoms from all federal states were examined in a non-representative monitoring. In 62% ...

When propagating black currant by lignified cuttings in order to obtain high-quality planting material in one growing season in the conditions of the forest-steppe zone of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, solutions of biogenic ferrihydrite nanoparticles were used in three modifications with the addition ...

Since controlling currant gall mite (Cecidophyopsis ribis Westw.) is a challenging and ineffective task, developing genetic resistance to the pest is one of the main priorities in breeding programs for Ribes nigrum both in Russia and abroad. The task was assigned at the FSBSO "Federal Horticultural ...

The article presents research findings on the weight of black currant berries. The research focused on the varieties and selected forms of black currant (Ribes nigrum L). Nara variety, adapted to local conditions, was used as a control. Studies were carried out in 2020-2022 at the plots for...

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') ...

Climate change is expected to change weather patterns in Chile significantly. Preserving the taxonomic and genetic diversity of crop wild relatives (CWR) is critical to ensure the availability of crops for future human food. However, many CWR are threatened in their natural habitats and...
