Yeast biomass is a novel source for the production of biodegradable films and, joint to the incorporation of certain compounds from essential oils, it is possible to design promising active materials for food preservatio...

Lactic acid bacteria can be considered as natural biopreservative and good biotechnological alternative to food safety. In this study, the antilisterial compounds produced by Enterococcus isolates from the Patagonian env...

The incorporation and trophic transfer of total and methyl mercury (THg, MeHg) were examined in three size classes of plankton (10–53, 53–200, and >200 μm size range) and a small planktivorous fish, Galaxias maculat...

Purple carrots (Daucus carota ssp. sativus var. atrorubens Alef.) accumulate anthocyanins in their roots, petioles and other plant parts. These flavonoid pigments represent an excellent dietary source of antioxidant and ...

Bacillus cereus is an endospore-forming, Gram-positive bacterium able to cause food-borne diseases. Lactic acid bacteria are known for their ability to synthesize organic acids and bacteriocins, but the potential of thes...

Hibernation and daily torpor are two distinct forms of torpor, and although they are related, it is not known how and in which sequence they evolved. As the pattern of torpor expressed by the oldest marsupial order the o...

An expanding world population and a planet limited in natural resources are two of the main reasons that have propelled the development of scientific and technological solutions that enable the efficient, sustainable, an...

The Antarctic rocky coasts are mainly colonized by extensive seaweed communities, which play key roles as food resource, habitat, and refuge for many benthic and pelagic organisms. Due to climate warming, Antarctic marin...
