Watercress (Nasturtium officinale) colour changes due to blanching by heat and a combined treatment of heat/ultrasound (thermosonication) were studied in the temperature range of 82.5 to 92.5 °C. The application of thermosonication was intended to enable less severe blanching treatments and, therefore, improve the quality of the blanched product. The thermosonication blanching processes promote...

Heavy metals are elements that mainly have a 5-22 gr.cm-3 specific gravity. Some of these essential micronutrients for plant growth (Such as Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn), Nickel (Ni) and Cobalt (Co)). other heavy metals, high toxicity properties such Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd) Mercury (Hg). In order to investigate the potential watercress (Nasturtium officinale) in uptake from nutrient s...

Helicobacter pylori :28 µg/mL).   (H. pylori) infection leads to different clinical and pathological outcomes in humans, including chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease and gastric neoplasia and even gastric cancer and its eradiation dependst upon multi-drug therapy.

This research aimed to investigate the bioaccumulation and health risk associated with absorption of selected heavy metals (HMs) i.e., lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu) in a wild leafy vegetable Nasturtium officinale that grows along Swat River swampy areas. The areas were categorized using ecological index (RI), which indicates how metal concentrations soil plants change over tim...
