The first records of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii in the South American continent   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Maríndia Deprá  Jean Lucas Poppe  Hermes José Schmitz  Daniela Cristina De Toni  Vera L. S. Valente 《Journal of pest science》2014,87(3):379-383

This paper presents the first report of the occurrence of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in South America. Several samples were collected during various seasons in 2012 and 2013, and a significant number of individuals were obtained and identified. Based on the data recorded during each sampling campaign, including the locality, temperature, time of year, and number of individuals collected, several conclusions were drawn about the development of this invasion in southern Brazil.  相似文献

Metabolism of stevioside by chickens     

Geuns JM  Malheiros RD  Moraes VM  Decuypere EM  Compernolle F  Buyse JG 《Journal of agricultural and food chemistry》2003,51(4):1095-1101

In intubation experiments (643-1168 mg per animal), most of the stevioside administered to chickens was recovered unchanged in the excreta, and only about 2% was converted into steviol. Neither stevioside nor steviol could be found in the blood. In chronic studies (667 mg of stevioside/kg of feed) with laying hens and meat-type chickens, no significant differences were found in feed uptake, weight gain, and feed conversion as the result of stevioside administration. The egg production and egg composition of laying hens were not influenced. Most of the stevioside taken up was found untransformed in the excreta, and about 21.5% or 7.3% was converted to steviol by meat-type chickens or laying hens, respectively. No stevioside or steviol could be detected in the blood or in the eggs of the different groups of animals. In anaerobic incubation experiments with chicken excreta, only a 20% conversion of stevioside into steviol was found. No harmful effects were observed in the chronic stevioside supplementation experiments nor in the intubation experiments in which very high stevioside doses were given.  相似文献   

Thermal and Moisture Diffusion Properties of Amaranth Seeds     

M. G. Vizcarra Mendoza  C. Martínez Vera  F. V. Caballero Domínguez 《Biosystems Engineering》2003,86(4):441-446

The physical characteristics, thermodynamic and transport properties of amaranth seeds relevant to the modelling and simulation of the drying processes of these seeds were studied. The water activity as a function of the temperature and moisture content was modelled by means of the Henderson's expression from water activity experimental data. The desorption–vaporisation heat was also calculated. From the solution to Fick's second law for a spherical geometry and assuming equilibrium conditions at the solid–gas interface, an effective diffusion coefficient was evaluated from experimental drying curves obtained in a moisture chamber. The effect of taking into account more than one term in the Fourier series solution was analysed and it is concluded that the diffusion coefficient corresponding to two terms in the series leads to better agreement with the experimental results for short times.  相似文献   

Comparison of the antioxidant activities of extra virgin olive oils     

Lavelli V 《Journal of agricultural and food chemistry》2002,50(26):7704-7708

The phenol content and antioxidant activity of extra virgin olive oils (EVOOs) differing in their origins and degradation degrees were studied. The o-diphenolic compounds typical of olive oil, namely, the oleuropein derivatives hydroxytyrosol (3',4'-dihydroxyphenylethanol, 3',4'-DHPEA), the dialdehydic form of elenolic acid linked to 3',4'-DHPEA (3',4'-DHPEA-EDA), and an isomer of oleuropein aglycon (3',4'-DHPEA-EA), were analyzed by HPLC. The antioxidant activity was studied by (a) the xanthine oxidase (XOD)/xanthine system, which generates superoxide radical and hydrogen peroxide; (b) the diaphorase (DIA)/NADH/juglone system, which generates superoxide radical and semiquinonic radical; and (c) the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) test. Results showed that EVOOs with a low degradation level (as evaluated by acidity, peroxide number, and spectroscopic indices K(232), K(270), and deltaK according to the EU Regulation) had a higher content of 3',4'-DHPEA-EDA and a lower content of 3',4'-DHPEA than oils having intermediate and advanced degradation levels. EVOOs with a low degradation degree were 3-5 times more efficient as DPPH scavengers and 2 times more efficient as inhibitors of the XOD-catalyzed reaction than oils with intermediate and advanced degradation levels. The DIA-catalyzed reaction was inhibited by EVOOs having low or intermediate degradation levels but not by the most degraded oils.  相似文献

Analysis of embedded gas detection system based on nano-porphyrin arrays     

LUO Xiao gang  BAI Xing hong  HOU Chang jun  HUO Dan qun  FA Huan bao  YANG Mei 《保鲜与加工》2011,(12):48-53

In view of the necessity of gas detection in environment, an embedded gas detection system is designed based on the basic principles of chromatography change of chemical reaction between nano-porphyrin arrays and micro-gas, which takes ARM9 S3C2440A as the core and nano-porphyrin array as the sensors. The overall program, the circuit organization and control software of the main function module such as spectrum signal acquisition, processing and monitoring are presented. With energy conservation differential equation, the control model of temperature and flow rate in the sample chamber is established, which can precisely control the detection conditions of chemical sensors. Some typical trace gases such as ammonia, enanthaldehyde, cyclohexane and hexanal are tested by the system, and the results show that the system can achieve rapid and accurate detection of trace volatile gas.  相似文献
