HYPOTHESIS To define the polyphenols extracted from dried apple peels (DAPP) and determine their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential in the intestine. Caco-2/15 cells we...

The failure of an adhesive layer in a 180° peel test is analyzed by the modeling of the peel as an elastica. The adhesive is assumed to fail by a process of cavitation and fibrillation. The resistance of the fibrillated material to deformation gives rise to a rate-dependent peel force F. Governing equations, which take into account the large deformation of the fibrillated materials, are derived...

The red color of apple peel is an important phenotypic and economic trait mainly attributed to anthocyanin accumulation. Apples show a deeper at higher altitudes than lower ones; however, the molecular regulatory network underlying variation along altitudinal gradients has not been investigated. In this study, effects environmental conditions associated with low (124 m) high (1901 on were asses...

Lipid transfer proteins (LTP) constitute a family of proteins widely distributed through the plant kingdom [1]. Allergenic LTP have been identified in tree pollen and weeds, plant food allergen sources and latex. The primary sensitizer agent and the fruit mostly involved seems to be the peach [2]. Allergy to LTP has been mainly described in Italy, Spain and Greece [3] and only exceptionally in ...
