Antioxidant Potential of Bell Pepper (Capsicum annum L

The interests in the consumption of pepper fruits (Capsicum annum L.) is, to a large extent due to its content of bioactive compounds and their importance as dietary antioxidants. Peppers are used as a colourant, flavourant, and/or as a source of pungency. Peppers can be used fresh, dried, fermented, or as an oleoresin extract. It has both nutritional and nutraceutical importance. It contains a...

Respiration rate model for mature green capsicum (Capsicum annum L.) under closed aerobic atmospheric conditions

The respiration rate of green capsicum cv. ‘Swarna’ fruits harvested at mature green stage were determined under closed system at 10, 15 and 20 oC temperatures. A simple Michaelis-Menten kinetic model coupled with Arrhenius-type equation, which describes temperature as a function of respiration rate, was used to model the respiration rate of capsicum. The respiration rate model parameters at de...

Microsatellite enrichment in organisms with large genomes (Allium cepa L.).

To exploit the polymorphism of repeat numbers in short tandem repeat (STR) sequences (microsatellites) as molecular markers, STRs must be isolated and PCR primers must be developed in flanking sequences. In species with large genomes such as Allium cepa L. (onion and shallot), an efficient selection procedure for genomic fragments containing STRs is a crucial step. Here we describe a nonradioac...

Biomonitoring hospital effluents by the Allium cepa L. test.

Hospital effluents are serious problems in developing countries like Brazil, and when not treated adequately, can cause mutagenic effects on live organisms. Biomonitors, like Allium cepa L., which is one of the most used plant species when monitoring effluent genotoxicity, have been used to alert the world population about environmental contamination and genotoxic chemical emissions. The Allium...
