Article Abstract
Background: Because of its high nutritional value, excellent taste, and ease of digestion, fish is one of the most popular foods. However, it also serves as a vehicle for various pathogenic microorganisms, particularly species, which pose a risk to public health.
Aim: This study targeted studying the prevalence of multidrug-resistant species in three marine fish retailed in Egypt. In addition, the antimicrobial activities of lemon juice and sesame oil against were screened.
Methods: For these reasons, this study assessed the prevalence of species in marine fish (mullet, brush tooth lizard, and coral fish) that are sold in the local market of Zagazig, Egypt. Additionally, certain virulence factors were detected in the recovered isolates. The antimicrobial susceptibility of the recovered isolates was also screened. The antivibrio activities of lemon juice and sesame oil (1% and 2%) were additionally tested.
Results: The acquired data showed that the prevalence of species was 40% among the tested fish samples. was isolated at 20.8%. (8.3%), (8.3%), and (2.5%). The recovered isolates were highly resistant to cefazolin (87.5%), ampicillin (77.1%), cephalothin (68.75%), penicillin, and streptomycin (100%, each). Lemon juice and sesame oil had marked antibacterial activities against .
Conclusion: Fish dipping in lemon juice and sesame oil was an effective way to lower the load of in fish. In addition, sanitary measures must be implemented to prevent microbial contamination in fish markets and aquatic environments.

Yuzu () seeds, a by-product of juice processing, are a valuable source of oil and bioactive compounds. This study investigates the effects of air drying (40 °C and 60 °C), and freeze-drying methods for yuzu seeds on the physicochemical and functional properties of mechanically extracted yuzu seed oil. 40 °C air drying was most effective, yielding the highest oil (11.

Post-harvest lignification drives fruit quality deterioration and represents a senescence program evolutionarily distinct from the well-studied softening process, yet the underlying mechanism remains largely unclear. Hence, this study aimed to identify and functionally verify NAC transcription factors that govern lignin deposition during citrus juice sac granulation, a major physiological disorder occurring in citrus fruit during senescence. Through comprehensive analysis of 116 NAC genes in Citrus sinensis, we identified CitNSF1 (Citrus NAC senescence-associated factor 1).

This study reports one-pot green synthesizing and characterizing nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) with green-light-emitting fluorescent features. For the said purpose, citrus-containing pulp-free juice was extracted from the lemon (as a green carbon precursor) and subjected to a carbonization process in the presence of urea as a doping agent. In addition, the characteristic-dependent factors, i.

Beetroot peel, an underutilised by-product of the food industry, has significant potential for valorisation due to its high content of bioactive compounds and natural pigments. This study aimed to sustainably reintroduce beetroot peel into the food chain by enriching the nutritional value of dehydrated apple snacks. Five experimental formulations of apple slices were developed: dipped in 5% RBPP in water, dipped in 10% RBPP in water, dipped in 5% RBPP in 50% lemon juice, dipped in 10% RBPP in 50% lemon juice all seasoned with cinnamon powder, and a control formulation.

Green mold and sour rot, caused by and , respectively, are the two most important citrus postharvest diseases in South Africa (SA), which rely on postharvest fungicide application, although other practices such as minimizing injuries, using sanitizer washes, and managing temperatures of harvested fruit significantly contribute to minimizing losses. Propiconazole, a demethylation inhibitor (DMI) fungicide was registered in SA for sour rot control in 2015 and showed efficacy against green mold, but its use poses a risk of cross-resistance in to the widely used imazalil, since these two fungicides have the same mode of action. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine propiconazole baseline sensitivity from organic orchard populations, verify pathogen species identity and assess propiconazole sensitivity of and from South African packhouses, a juice factory and orchards from Eastern Cape and Western Cape citrus production regions.
