As a urea cytokinin, allantoin effectively mitigates the adverse effects of salinity stress on plants. However, there has been limited research on the optimal application period of allantoin in practical production settings. This study aimed to ascertain the optimal timing for allantoin application in sugar beet cultivation under saline and alkaline conditions in Heilongjiang Province, China. The experiment involved spraying allantoin at a mass concentration of 0.1 mmol/L onto the foliage at the seedling stage (<i>M</i>), the rapid leaf cluster growth stage (<i>Y</i>), and the tuber expansion stage (<i>K</i>), as well as at the combined stages of MY and MYK, with clear water used as the control (CK). The results indicated that the combined MY and MYK treatments resulted in significantly higher aboveground and belowground dry matter accumulation compared to other treatments. Specifically, nitrogen content in the aboveground and belowground parts reached peak values of 15.77 g/plant and 7.045 g/plant under MY and MYK treatments, respectively. Furthermore, nitrogen metabolizing enzyme activities exhibited an initial increase followed by a decrease during beet growth and development, with enzyme activities in the MY treatments consistently remaining at elevated levels. Additionally, hormone levels in sugar beets were enhanced by allantoin application. Hormone levels were enhanced, with abscisic acid content significantly higher under MY and MYK treatments compared to other treatments, while gibberellin and cytokinin levels were notably higher compared to CK treatments. In comparison with CK, MY treatments exhibited an increase in yield by 0.26 percentage points, with sugar yield rising by 21.3%. However, there were no significant differences between MY and MYK treatments in each index. Therefore, spraying allantoin solely during the seedling and leaf cluster growth period can enhance sugar beet yield by augmenting nitrogen metabolism capacity and hormone levels, whereas application during the tuber expansion period can notably enhance sugar beet processing quality.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":781,"journal":{"name":"Sugar Tech","volume":"26 5","pages":"1283 - 1296"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141146621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently, it is accepted for use in health food products and is also a safe sugar generally recognized as safe (GRAS). Now, it is used in many industries, resulting in an increased market demand; however, there has been only limited technological advancement regarding its production process. Consequently, this research investigated two processes for D-psicose production and optimizing the conditions to achieve highly efficient D-psicose conversion. Two processes were: (1) a physicochemical process using high temperature at different pH values, based on autoclaving, and (2) an enzymatic method using crude and purified recombinant D-psicose 3-epimerase (DPEase). Different fructose concentrations were studied as substrate for the D-psicose conversion in both methods. The results showed that crude DPEase conversion clearly produced the highest yield and D-psicose conversion under the best optimum conditions (50% w/v fructose solution with a reaction time of 180 min) of 14.88% w/v and 28.60%, respectively. DPEase converted fructose specifically to only D-psicose and no other sugars were detected as by-products, while the physicochemical method produced negative changes in both physical and chemical properties, such as a pH reduction and an unacceptable caramelization appearance in the sugar solution, as well many sugars being detected after autoclaving. All the results should be useful as guidelines for further research and development on sugar-based substrates and for improving the efficiency of the DPEase enzyme, including downstream technology to achieve highly efficient D-psicose production at the pilot and industrial scales.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":781,"journal":{"name":"Sugar Tech","volume":"26 6","pages":"1544 - 1555"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141146594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The induced calli were subjected to varying concentrations (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 mg/l) of MWCNTs for multiplication. The highest multiplication was recorded on media containing 5.0 mg/l of CNTs with fresh weight 2.8567 g.

Similarly, the sub-cultured calli were subjected to phytochemical analysis and the effect of MWCNTs on amount of biochemical contents like total phenolic contents, flavonoids, saponins and terpenoids was determined. The highest contents were found in the culture containing the highest concentration of CNTs, in all cases. Moreover, the antioxidant activities of the MWCNTs induced in vitro sugarcane were also evaluated by the 1,1 diphenyl 2, picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) methods, which was found highest, i.e. 95.556% with EC50 value of 34.49 µg/ml for crude extract of callus grown on MS-media containing 5.0 mg/l MWCNTs.

However, the diverse regional and traditional practices in neera sugar preparation pose challenges in establishing regulatory and quality standards. To address this, a pilot-scale neera processing unit was established. This study focuses on determining the optimal coconut neera syrup concentration (70, 74, and 78° Brix) for maximizing neera sugar crystal yield, investigating subsequent physiochemical, nutritional, and thermal property changes to enhance the understanding of neera sugar production. The study found a positive relationship between sugar syrup concentration and crystal yield, with 70, 74, and 78° Brix neera syrups producing 14.62 ± 0.57, 22.89 ± 0.25, and 26.48 ± 0.88 g of sugar crystals, respectively, after 25 days. Correspondingly, sucrose content at 70, 74, and 78° Brix increased to 4995.785, 5144.819, and 6164.89 mg/L, respectively.
