Fresh lemon juice and lemon-flavored beverages were analyzed by using comprehensive 2-D GC (GC x GC) with flame-ionization detection, with a nonpolar-polar column combination. A low-alcohol, ready-to-drink (RTD) beverage was also analyzed as fresh, and after deterioration for 12 days at 50 degrees

An excessively acidic diet results in the progressive deterioration of dental health, with functional, esthetic, and biological consequences. Previously, rehabilitation required placing numerous full crowns and root canal treatments; however, with improved adhesive techniques, a more conservative

Encapsulation effectively delays the volatilization of lemon essential oil (LEO). Here, various chitosan (CS)-LEO nanoparticles were prepared by emulsification using different CS and Tween-80 concentrations and CS:TPP and CS:LEO ratios. The CS-LEO nanoparticles were spherical, small in size (58 ± 9

BACKGROUND Chronic hypokalemia is the main finding in patients with Gitelman's syndrome. Exogenous factors can trigger deterioration of the patient's condition and provoke clinical symptoms. We discuss the pathophysiology of and therapy for Gitelman's syndrome, with a focus on dietary factors which

Polyphenols have been examined for their beneficial effects on health, particularly in rodents, but their lifelong effects are unclear. Lemons (Citrus limon), containing lemon polyphenols (LPP), are widely consumed but the effects of LPP on aging are unknown. Therefore, we examined the effects of

The mechanism by which seal-packaging individual fruit in high density polyethylene film delays deterioration was investigated with lemon (Citrus limon [L.] Burm. f. cv Eureka) and bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L. cv Maor) fruits. Seal-packaging effects were due to the water-saturated atmosphere in

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine the protective effects of lemon fruit extracts (LFE) against histopathological changes induced in the testes of male mice treated with cyclophosphamide (CP). METHODS Thirty male mice were divided evenly into six groups: 1) group 1: the controls, 2)

Glycation, a non-enzymatic glycosylation of proteins, induces tissue damage in association with various diseases and aging phenomena. Pentosidine, an advanced glycation end product, is involved in aging phenomena such as tissue stiffness. In this study, we aimed to find a potent anti-glycation food

Huanglongbing (HLB) is an extremely destructive and lethal disease of citrus worldwide, presumably caused by phloem-limited bacteria, Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas). The widespread invasiveness of the HLB pathogen and lack of natural HLB-resistant citrus cultivars have

Experiments were carried out to determine the potential of using the powder and essential oil from dried ground leaves of Cymbopogon citratus (lemon grass) to control storage deterioration and aflatoxin contamination of melon seeds. Four mould species: Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. tamarii and

This work aimed to control the fungal deterioration of strawberry jams. The antifungal activity of the clove, cinnamon leaf, lemon and mandarin essential oils and their effectiveness in oil-in-water emulsions were evaluated. According to the results obtained, only clove and cinnamon leaf oils were

OBJECTIVE Phytophotodermatitis (PPD) is defined as a phototoxic reaction of the skin after contact with substances derived from plants and subsequent exposure to sunlight. It is a frequent disease in our outpatient clinics during summer because of contact with Tahitian lemon. Our objectives were to

Fungal rots are one of the main causes of large economic losses and deterioration in the quality and nutrient composition of fruits during the postharvest stage. The yeast Clavispora lusitaniae 146 has previously been shown to efficiently protect lemons from green mold caused by

BACKGROUND Essential oils are widely used, for example in aromatherapy and aroma massage. In aroma massage, essential oil, diluted with vegetable oil, is rubbed onto the skin. Components of essential oil penetrate into the skin and have an influence on the dermis. Elastase is an enzyme which

Citral, a lemon flavor molecule often used in the beverage and fragrance industry, is known to be unstable under light irradiation. Its deterioration is considered to be an important issue for the stabilization of lemon-flavored drinks. The aim of this study is to understand the degradation
