Carotenoids are naturally occurring, fat-soluble pigments that play an important role in the embryonic development of songbirds. Female songbirds use different strategies to allocate these important maternal resources to their eggs. Little research has been done on whether North American songbirds exhibit laying sequence patterns in their allocation of carotenoids. We studied the laying-sequence variation in yolk carotenoids and egg metrics of nine full clutches of Eastern Bluebirds (Sialia...

The phenomenon of global warming is an increase in the earth's temperature due to the greenhouse effect where 50% of the main contributors to the greenhouse effect are carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon dioxide is one of the ingredients needed for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is carried out by plants that have chloroplasts. Plants in the waters are Seaweed. Gracilaria changii is a type of red seaweed (Rhodophyceae). The dominant pigment from Gracilaria changii is carotenoids. Carotenoid serves as a...

This study was carried out to determine pomological and chemical characteristics of rose hips from four Rosa species belonging to Caninae section growing wild in the North and the Centre of Tunisia. Fourteen parameters related to pomological and chemical characteristics were recorded. Mean rose hip weight ranged from 0.9±0.2 to 1.9±0.3 g, the height from 15.1±1.8 to 18.9±1.6 mm and the width from 10.5±0.7 to 14.1±0.8 mm.

Xanthorhodopsin, a proton pump from the eubacterium Salinibacter ruber, is a unique dual chromophore system that contains, in addition to retinal, the carotenoid salinixanthin as a light-harvesting antenna. The key factors affecting binding and function of the antenna were established and examined. The first is the binding of the carotenoid ring near the retinal ring. Substitution of the small glycine with bulky tryptophan in this site eliminates binding. The second factor is the 4-keto group...

Woollen fabric treated with tin (II) chloride was dyed using yellow blossoms of different plants in order to compare the UV protection of these yellow dyed fabrics and their ability to eliminate free radicals generated by exposure to UV radiation. All the tested fabrics dyed with different yellow blossoms containing flavonoids or carotenoids showed an excellent protection against UV radiation (low reflectance and transmission of radiation in the near UV radiation, high UPF as well as the...

ABSTRACT The 42 selected maize landraces of Manipur were analyzed to study genetic variability and correlation for the 8 quantitative traits and a qualitative trait. All the character understudied had genetic variability and some characters have a significant correlation. To confirm does kernel color have the direct relation in the amount of total carotenoid concentration separate correlation studies between total carotenoid (quantitative traits) and kernel color (qualitative trait) was...

Orange flesh melons (Cucumis melo L. var. inodorus) is widely cultivated in Brazil, especially in the Northeast region. The study was carried out to determine the effects of gamma irradiation at doses 0.5 and 1.0 kGy on the carotenoids, sugars, volatile, flavor and sensory characteristics. High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Gas Chromatography (GC) and Mass Spectrometry (MS) were used to identify and quantify carotenoids, sugars and volatile compounds. Sensorial analysis was...

At present there is no medicine, vaccine which has evidence, so there is utmost need to see role of immunity modulators in prophylaxis and therapeutic management of Covid-19 coronavirus. The immunity modulators which may help in preventive and therapeutic aspects. The immunity modulators are helpful in boosting immunity by forming antibodies against virus, overall it may help to reduce mortality rate. In...

This past year we have explored the potential uses of Resonance Raman and Fluorescence Lifetime Spectroscopies in the rapid characterization of bacteria. Previously we have shown that chromobacteria can be distinguished on the basis of distinctive resonance Raman spectra. Spectra are excited by low power argon ion laser radiation at 488 nm and are due to the presence of carotenoid pigments. While carotenoid pigments in bacteria generally are not useful for identification purposes, the study of...

A study was conducted to determine the vitamin stability of the Meal, Ready-to-Eat, Individual, after exposure to 1, 3, and 6 freeze-thaw cycles under controlled conditions. Prior to and after cycling, replicate analyses of thirteen menu composites were made for vitamin A, carotene, ascorbic acid, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, and vitamin B6 contents. Of these vitamins, losses occurred in all except riboflavin and niacin.

My primary research interest is the effect that phytoplankton community structure has on the optical fields and carbon cycling in the marine environment. Methods used in my lab are based on biomarkers, primarily chlorophylls, carotenoids and their degradation products. These are the chromophores which are responsible for a major fraction of the light absorbed in the ocean. It is my goal to characterize phytoplankton-derived chromophores in the marine environment and determine their effects on...

Eight international laboratories specializing in the determination of marine pigment concentrations using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were intercompared using in situ samples and a variety of laboratory standards. The field samples were collected primarily from eutrophic waters, although mesotrophic waters were also sampled to create a dynamic range in chlorophyll concentration spanning approximately two orders of magnitude (0.3 25.8 mg m-3). The intercomparisons were used to...

Twelve carrot varieties were analysed for reducing and total sugars, carotene and solids content. Samples of certain varieties were dehydrated and stored at 1, 15 and 37 C for up to two years and subjected to taste panel testing at intervals. Browning was determined after storage at 37 C for 2 yr and found to depend markedly on moisture and reducing sugar content. Recommendations of varieties suitable for dehydration and long term storage are made. (Author)

Brown seaweeds are popular foods in Japan, where the incidence of breast cancer is about 1/6 the rate of that reported for American women. Seaweed is an excellent source of fiber, contains iodine, carotenoids, and both mammalian lignans and isoflavones. Seaweed may help to prevent breast cancer by several different mechanisms involving these and other constituents. In a preliminary study of toxicity and efficacy using 5 g/day of seaweed, we found seaweed was well tolerated and was associated...

Laser spectroscopy experiments have focused on cones in the red-eared swamp turtle, Pseudemys scripta elegans. Our choice of this system was based on the desire to correlate our molecular data with the extensive data being collected on this system by Dr. Zwick in his studies on laser hazards at LAIR. Thus, a detailed collaborative effort was initiated on this system during the past year. The experiments have already resulted in important information which opens new avenues to explore...
