(IF 2.7) Pub Date : 2024-01-31 Juliana Aparecida Célia, Osvaldo Resende, Lígia Campos de Moura Silva, Samuel Viana Ferreira, Josivania Silva Correia, Adrielle Borges de Almeida, Geraldo Acácio Mabasso
The objective of this study was to characterize and evaluate the effect of storage time of whole sorghum flour, stored at room temperature and wrapped in different packages: paper, polyethylene, vacuum polyethylene, and polypropylene for 12 months. The sorghum grains were harvested manually, with an initial moisture content of 28.0 (g 100 g), then subjected to drying at a temperature of 60 °C until

Methyl benzoate and its derivative, acetophenone, as fumigants to control stored product insects J. Stored Prod. Res. (IF 2.7) Pub Date : 2024-01-24 Gomaa R.M. Ramadan, Eman M. Mosallam, Thomas W. Phillips
Since methyl bromide has been phased out and recently banned in many countries, and resistance to phosphine has developed and spread worldwide, alternative fumigants are a high priority for stored product pests. The present study evaluated the fumigant activity of methyl benzoate (MB) and acetophenone (AP) against the lesser grain borer, , the rice weevil, , and the red flour beetle, under laboratory

Inhibiting Tyrophagus putrescentiae orientation to and reproduction on dry cured hams: The impact of acetic acid-treated ham nets J. Stored Prod. Res. (IF 2.7) Pub Date : 2024-01-24 Sawyer Wyatt Smith, Xue Zhang, Emily M. Little, Annemarie Coatney, Guyue Tang, Thomas W. Phillips, M. Wes Schilling
Dry-cured hams are often infested by (Schrank) (Sarcoptiformes: Acaridae) during aging. Recent studies have highlighted the potential for liquid smoke infused nets to control infestations on dry-cured hams, as a potential alternative replacement to methyl bromide. This research aims to investigate acetic acid (CH3COOH), one of the three predominant components of liquid smoke, for its efficacy in mite

Sustained-release film prepared by incorporation of cinnamon essential oil: Physicochemical properties and application in the preservation of mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) J. Stored Prod. Res. (IF 2.7) Pub Date : 2024-01-22 Lisha Song, Fanyun Hou, Fangxuan Yi, Shouqing Zhan, Xiuxiu Chen, Xiangbo Han, Rongfei Zhang, Zhanli Liu
The chitosan/zein/cinnamon essential oil (CEO) sustained-release active film was developed. The rheological properties of film-forming solutions (FFS) and the physicochemical properties of films were investigated. The effects of active film on mushroom quality were evaluated. When CEO and Tween 80 were mixed in a ratio of 1:3, the particle size of the essential oil emulsion was the smallest and the

Accurate modelling and fracture characteristics of wheat grains J. Stored Prod. Res. (IF 2.7) Pub Date : 2024-01-18 Ying Zhou, Ju Gao, Yanbo Hui, Xiaoliang Wang, Juanjuan Liu, Yongzhen Zhang, Qiao Wang
Wheat grains are susceptible to breakage throughout various stages, including harvest, processing, transportation, and storage. This damage leads to reduced market value, lower germination rates, and increased vulnerability to mold and insect infestation, thereby impacting grain safety and food quality. Current methods for assessing seed-crushing characteristics rely on uniaxial compression tests and

Five invasive alien plant powders, Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] H. Karst.) wood ash and diatomaceous earth against Sitophilus oryzae (L.) adults: are they closer to guns or roses? J. Stored Prod. Res. (IF 2.7) Pub Date : 2024-01-16 Matej Podgornik Milosavljević, Monica Novljan, Iztok Jože Košir, Aleksander Horvat, Urban Šilc, Evagelia Lampiri, Christos Athanassiou, Tanja Bohinc, Matej Vidrih, Stanislav Trdan
We tested the insecticidal efficacy of different powders as surface treatment against the rice weevil () adults. We have applied dusts from five invasive alien plant species (, , , ) and two inert dusts, i.e. wood ash from Norway Spruce () and commercial product SilicoSec® (as diatomaceous earth). Mortality was evaluated from 1st till 7th day after exposure, at 20 and 25 °C, two values of relative
