Grading systems are often introduced to address the classic adverse selection problem associated with asymmetric information about product quality. However, grades are rarely measured perfectly, and adverse selection outcomes may persist due to grading error. We study the effects of errors in grading, focusing on asymmetric grading errors-namely when low-quality product can erroneously be class...

Amaç: İnsan beslenmesinde önemli yeri olan balık, yüksek protein ve diğer azotlu bileşikler içermesi nedeniyle mikrobiyal bozulmaya yatkın bir su ürünüdür. Besinlerde yükü azaltmaya yönelik sentetik doğal birçok koruyucu madde kullanılmaktadır. Bitki özütleri antimikrobiyal özellikler taşımakta oldukları için tüketiciler tarafından tercih edilmektedir.

In the present study, to investigate the mechanisms regulating carotenoid accumulation in citrus, a culture system was set up in vitro with juice sacs of three citrus varieties, Satsuma mandarin (Citrus unshiu Marc.), Valencia orange (Citrus sinensis Osbeck), and Lisbon lemon (Citrus limon Burm.f.). The juice sacs of all the three varieties enlarged gradually with carotenoid accumulation. The c...

In the present study, the syntheses of crystalline silver and gold nanoparticles (NPs) has been demonstrated in a green and environmentally friendly approach using citrus fruit extracts (lemon, Citrus limon (Cl-1) and sweet orange, Citrus limetta (Cl-2)). In addition, potentially hazardous metal ion sensing properties of these NPs in aqueous solution has been explored. Cl-1 and Cl-2 that predom...

The effectiveness of curing oranges and lemons at 33 degrees C for 65h followed by storage under ambient and cold-storage conditions was investigated. This treatment effectively reduced the incidence of Penicillium digitatum (Pers) Sacc and P italicum Wehmer decay on inoculated and naturally infected oranges and lemons stored at 20 degrees C for 7 days. However, it failed to control green and b...

The Citrus genus includes a large number of species and varieties widely cultivated in the Central Valley of California and in many other countries having similar Mediterranean climates. In the summer, orchards in California experience high levels of tropospheric ozone, formed by reactions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) with oxides of nitrogen (NOx). Citrus trees may improve air quality in...

Vitamin C is a vital circulating antioxidant with anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties that are required for good health throughout the life cycle. The coronavirus disease (SARSCov-2) pandemic now being done; every doctor has suggested consuming vitamin as dietary supplement. Besides an extensive range of significances, we want to focus vit C-rich natural resources despite costly dr...
