Spraying pesticides using air induction nozzles is a well-known method to reduce drift. These drift-reducing have been tested on many different tree crops (such as apples, citrus, and grapes), but we are still lacking information their utilization hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) groves, although major nut crop in Italy, recent years its cultivated area has constantly growing. This paper reports ...

Elicitation effect of silver nano particles (AgNPs) and triggering of defence system by production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a signaling molecule in the regulation of the activity of stress-related enzymes and production of Taxol was evaluated in suspension- cultured hazel cells (Corylus avellana L.). The cells were treated with different concentrations of AgNPs (0, 2.5, 5, and 10 ppm), in...

Approved: Paclitaxel is a very important anticancer drug commonly called Taxol ®. We know from previous work (Hoffman, et al., 1998) that Taxol exists in filbert, Corylus avellana L. material. Quantification of Taxol in filbert plant material is painstaking and hitherto was accomplished by rapidly processing single batches in a complicated procedure (Hoffman, et al., 1998), which seemingly unav...

In this study, we investigated the formation of protein–phenolic complexes from dephenolized hazelnut meal protein isolates (dHPI) and skin phenolic extracts (HSE) their effects on bioaccessibility both proteins phenolics. The dHPI–HSE were considerable size dependent HSE concentration due to aggregation. Although catechin was main component HSE, it did not cause aggregation, except for a sligh...
