    Abstract Spray-drying is a continuous encapsulation method that effectively preserves, stabilizes, and retards the degradation of bioactive compounds by encapsulating them within a wall material. The resulting capsules exhibit diverse characteristics influenced by factors such as operating conditions (e.g., air temperature and feed rate) and the interactions between the bioactive compounds and the wall material. This review aims to compile recent research (within the past 5 years) on spray-drying for bioactive compound encapsulation, emphasizing the significance of wall materials in spray-drying and their impact on encapsulation yield, efficiency, and capsule morphology.

    Abstract This work reports the influence of terbium trivalent ions on growing kinetics and the phase in hafnium oxide nanoparticles, as well as response to radiation in the range from 256 to 286. The nanoparticles were obtained by the hydrothermal route maintaining the temperature constant and varying the reaction time and the terbium concentration. The results show a gradual change in the phase with the concentration of terbium trivalent ions, going from the monoclinic phase, present at low concentrations, to the tetragonal phase, which appears from dopant concentrations greater than 5% at., increasing in amount with concentration of dopant. These phases appear as two perfectly defined morphologies. Furthermore, there is a significant change in radiative lifetimes when the tetragonal phase appears.

    Abstract In atomistic simulations of molecular junctions, it is important to develop methods beyond density-functional theory (DFT) to describe the interface electronic structure and alignment of frontier molecular orbitals accurately. Here we describe a first-principles approach for molecular junctions that extends the DFT+Σ method, an approximate scheme based on self-energy corrections. The DFT+Σᵗᵒᵗ method presented here acts on junction states and introduces corrections to DFT-based molecular frontier orbitals not only on the molecular subspace but on the whole junction Hamiltonian. These self-energy corrections are scaled according to the molecular character of each junction wave function, a character which is given by projection coefficients between molecular orbitals and junction states. We illustrate this formalism in three paradigmatic weakly interacting single molecule junctions. Despite the weak metal/molecule interaction, calculated projection coefficients show metal/molecule hybridization resulting in molecular orbital features that can be significantly broadened over a wide energy range. Scaling of self-energy corrections to molecular levels seamlessly accounts for this hybridization and spectral delocalization. The resulting DFT+Σᵗᵒᵗ electronic structure brings molecular frontier orbital energies to values comparable to the G₀W₀ and WKM approaches. By considering the whole spectral distribution of molecular orbitals, DFT+Σᵗᵒᵗ shifts not just the main molecular peaks but modifies the whole junction electronic structure.

    Abstract Recurring heat and drought episodes present challenges to the sustainability of grape production worldwide. We investigated the impacts of heat and drought stress on transcriptomic and metabolic responses of berries from two wine grape varieties. Cabernet Sauvignon and Riesling grapevines were subjected to one of four treatments during early fruit ripening: (1) drought stress only, (2) heat stress only, (3) simultaneous drought and heat stress, (4) no drought or heat stress (control). Berry metabolites, especially organic acids, were analyzed, and time-course transcriptome analysis was performed on samples before, during, and after the stress episode. Both alone and in conjunction with water stress, heat stress had a much more significant impact on berry organic acid content, pH, and titratable acidity than water stress. This observation contrasts with previous reports for leaves, which responded more strongly to water stress, indicating that grape berries display a distinct, organ-specific response to environmental stresses. Consistent with the metabolic changes, the global transcriptomic analysis revealed that heat stress had a more significant impact on gene expression in grape berries than water stress in both varieties. The differentially expressed genes were those associated with the tricarboxylic acid cycle and glyoxylate cycle, mitochondrial electron transport and alternative respiration, glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, carbohydrate allocation, ascorbate metabolism, and abiotic stress signaling pathways. Knowledge regarding how environmental stresses, alone and in combination, impact the berry metabolism of different grape varieties will form the basis for developing recommendations for climate change mitigation strategies and genetic improvement.

    Abstract Nejayote is recognized as the main by-product resulting from the nixtamalization process of maize kernels, which is categorized as an alkaline residue with a chemical composition based on carbohydrates (37.8–55.7%), fiber (22.8–25.5%), protein (4.9–7.4%), and lipids (0.4–1.5%). In addition, Nejayote has an extensive content of simple (e.g., phenolic acids) and complex phenolic compounds (e.g., anthocyanins), which are responsible for the pigmentation and antioxidant activity of maize; therefore, there is a need of their identification depending on the type of maize. The current research has focused on the efficient extraction and identification of the phenolic acids contained in Nejayote after the processing of different types of maize. The target of this work was to fractionate Nejayote from white (NWM), red (NRM), and purple maize (NPM), using three different membranes, such as microfiltration (MF with a pore size of 1 μm) and ultrafiltration (UF100 and UF1 with a molecular weight cut-off of 100 kDa and 1 kDa, respectively), which were strategically applied to extract phenolic acids while retaining other molecules. Such a membrane system exhibited a retention in the first stage of almost all carbohydrates (MF-Retentate: ca. 12–19 g GE/L), while second stage (UF100-Permeate) a concentration of phenolic components was recovered ranging from 768 to 800 mg GAE/L. Finally, in the third stage (UF1-Permeate), 14 phenolic acids were identified, including ferulic and p-coumaric acids, derived from caffeic and ferulic acids, along with other molecules (e.g., glucose and fructose).

    Abstract BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Measuring the carbon assimilation and respiration during vine phenology can provide an understanding of the dynamics of carbon fluxes from different organs and their relationship. Most field studies to date do not consider the respiratory losses of different plant organs and their variability under environmental, genetic and phenological changes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of genotype and water regime on carbon assimilation, respiration and allocation during vine phenology. METHODS AND RESULTS: Field trials were carried out during 2013 and 2014 to study the effect of genotype and water status on carbon assimilation, respiratory losses from leaves, shoots, fruits and roots during the vine phenological cycle, and on biomass production. Carbon respiration varied during plant phenology and represented a significant proportion of the total vine carbon assimilation. The integrated carbon respiratory loss in leaves, fruits and roots was greater in irrigated vines than in non‐irrigated vines. Tempranillo recorded the highest carbon assimilation, leaf and stem respiration, as well as the highest above‐ground biomass. Garnacha showed a higher root respiration loss and allocated more biomass to the permanent organs. Accumulation of above‐ground biomass was influenced by plant carbon budgets during the growing season. CONCLUSIONS: Vine phenology, cultivar and plant water status affected carbon assimilation, carbon loss and carbon allocation. Non‐irrigated vines had a higher respiratory carbon loss in respect to the total carbon assimilation by photosynthesis. Above‐ and below‐ground carbon fluxes were coupled during vine phenology. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY: The present work illustrates the importance of respiratory processes on the carbon balance and the relationship among different carbon balance components during vine phenology.
