Use of Recovered Struvite and Ammonium Nitrate in Fertigation in Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum) Production for boosting Circular and Sustainable Horticulture
(Agriculture, 2021-10-28)Struvite and ammonium nitrate are products obtained from widely studied processes to remove phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) from waste streams. To boost circularity in horticulture, these recovered ... -
Use of risk assessment and predictive microbiology in regulatory science related to the scientific opinions of the EFSA BIOHAZ Panel
(International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2023-06-25)EFSA's Panel on Biological Hazards (BIOHAZ Panel) deals with questions on biological hazards relating to food safety and food-borne diseases. This covers food-borne zoonoses, transmissible spongiform ... -
Use of root pruning, paclobutrazol, and prohexadione-Ca combination strategies to control growth and improve productivity on pear trees
(Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2019-07)Growth control in pear orchards is essential, not just to reduce competition between vegetative and reproductive sinks, but also to improve return bloom, yield and fruit quality. The goal to optimize ... -
Use of targeted SNP selection for an improved anchoring of the melon (Cucumis melo L.) scaffold genome assembly
(BMC Genomics, 2015-01-22)Background: The genome of the melon (Cucumis melo L.) double-haploid line DHL92 was recently sequenced, with 87.5 and 80.8% of the scaffold assembly anchored and oriented to the 12 linkage groups, ... -
Use of the informational spectrum methodology for rapid biological analysis of the novel coronavirus 2019-nCoV: prediction of potential receptor, natural reservoir, tropism and therapeutic/vaccine target [version 1; peer review: awaiting peer review]
(F1000Research, 2020-01-27)A novel coronavirus recently identified in Wuhan, China (2019-nCoV) has expanded the number of highly pathogenic coronaviruses affecting humans. The 2019-nCoV represents a potential epidemic or ... -
Use of Ultra-High Pressure Homogenization processing in winemaking:Control of microbial populations in grape musts and effects in sensory quality
(Innovative Food Science and Emerging Technologies, 2018-10-06)Ultra-High Pressure Homogenization (UHPH) is a fast and efficient technique that can sterilizefluid foods at lowtemperatures or even under cooling conditions. A white must (Vitis viniferaL.) was processed ... -
Use of visible-near infrared spectroscopy to predict nutrient composition of poultry excreta
(Animal Feed Science and Technology, 2021-11-25)Nowadays optimal feed formulation for poultry is sought for available content, which takes into account how the nutrients are digested and metabolized by the animal. The digestibility coefficients of ... -
