Physiology and control of apple scald
… (EC 1.15.1.1:S0D) activities and superficial scald and soft scald development in 'Virginiagold','Stayman', and 'Rome' apples (Malus domestica Borkh.) was investigated. 'Virginiagold' apples treated postharvest with an aqueous solution of diphenylamine (DPA) + 1,2, dihydro -6- ethoxy …

Scald burn admissions to Princess Margaret Hospital in 1998 and 2008: A comparative analysis
Scald is the most common form of burn in young children, accounting for over 50% of all paediatric burn admissions in Western Australia (WA). Interventions implemented over the past few years focussed on prevention, first aid, and improved services postinjury (Department of Health Western …

Differences in lipoxygenase activity as related to cultivar differences in superficial scald of apples
… lipoxygenase activity (LOX) and superficial scald was studied in the four apple cultivars (Malus domesticus Borkh.), Granny Smith (GS), Red Delicious (RD), Golden Delicious (GD) and York (YK) to determine if LOX is the genetic source of superficial scald or a means of predicting % scalded …

Exploring the genetic mechanisms underlying superficial scald development and prevention in apple fruit during postharvest storage.
… all the physiological disorders, superficial scald is one of the most challenging, causing discoloration and skin browning triggering therefore consumers unacceptance. The development of superficial scald in apple fruit is a complex process influenced by various factors, including genetic …

Comparative Impacts of Irradiation on Antioxidant Compounds of Scalded and Non-scalded Skin of Granny Smith Apples
<p>Post-harvest Superficial scald affects the quality of Granny Smith Apples. Oxidative stress develops superficial scald with antioxidant systems mitigating the extent of this damage. This study evaluated the effects of gamma, X-ray, and electron beam irradiation on antioxidants – ascorbic acid, …

Harvest practices cause aberrations in pork quality
… we hypothesized harvesting practices, such as scald alter color across muscles of the ham. Scald time was initially investigated using 32 carcasses subjected to either a 4 (n=16) or 8 (n=16) min scald time. Samples were collected before or after scalding and at 24 hrs. A 50% reduction in scald …

Gamma and X-ray Irradiation Improve Postharvest Shelf-Life in 'Bartlett' Pears
… solids contents, and occurrence of superficial scald was measured at the climacteric peak. Ripening was accelerated in all pears during storage, and by day 75, the fruit ripened in three days compared to seven days before storage. Ethylene production was decreased, and respiration rate was …

Effect of Low Dose Irradiation on Expression of Genes Involved in Ethylene Biosynthesis of 'Granny Smith' Apples
<p>Superficial scald is a physiological disorder characterized by skin browning that appears during or after storage of ‘Granny Smith’ apples. The mechanism for scald development is not fully understood, but it is hypothesized that scald formation is related to increased ethylene production. In …

Relationship of free radical scavenging enzymes to fruit growth, development, ripening, and senescence in 'Red Delicious' apples
… storage in relation to ripening, senescence, and scald development. At bud swelling stage SOD, POD, and catalase activities were at highest level. Higher activities of these enzymes might be related to the detoxification of free radicals and hence resumption of growth. With the onset of bud break …

Impact of Gamma Irradiation on Post-harvest Disorders in 'Bartlett' Pears
… levels of compounds associated with superficial scald, α-farnesene and conjugated trienes, were lower in the irradiated pears, however, the incidence of superficial scald was higher in irradiated samples with 28 % and 32 % in 470 and 940 Gy treated pears, respectively, compared to 17 % in control …

Inheritance of resistance to Rhynchosporium secalis (Oud.) J.J. Davis in Barley
… were chosen for a study of the inheritance of scald resistance. They were crossed with Wong (0.1. 6728), a highly susceptible variety and with Hudson (0.I. 8067), a highly resistant variety. The crosses with Wong were made for the purpose of determining the number of pairs of genes for …

The Epidemiology of Pediatric Ambulance Transport in Ontario, Canada
… involving choking or foreign bodies, and burn/scald injuries. In Manuscript 2, there were 1,872,519 patients who sustained an injury in Ontario with 129,577 (6.9%) transported to the ED via ambulance. The adjusted OR for all cause mortality was 154.88 (95% CI: 101.11-237.23), the adjusted OR …

Burn Serum Stimulates Mitochondrial Fission in C2C12 Myoblasts
… either from 40% total body surface area (TBSA) scald burn rats or control rats. Cells were then labeled with MitoTracker Green dye and live cell images were recorded by confocal microscopy. The expression of mitochondr ial fission/fusion factors was examined by Western blots. RESULTS: In cells …

Experimental Evaluation of Urinary Bladder Marsupialization in Male Goats
… cystitis. All goats developed mild urine scald dermatitis. All blood chemistry values remained within normal limits. Significant decreases in white blood cell count, serum creatinine, and stomal diameter were observed from day 0 to day 180. Except for the goat that died at 150 days, all …

Characterisation of candidate effector proteins from barley pathogen <i>Rhynchosporium commune</i>
Rhynchosporium commune causes leaf scald, one of the most devastating diseases of barley. It leads to significant yield losses, grain quality can also be affected, resulting in substantial losses for barley producers. Disease management strategies mainly rely on the use of fungicides and resistant …

Characterization and application of adipose derived stem cells following burn injury
… or generating skin substitutes. Using a 60% rat scald burn model, we investigated the cellular source of inflammation within adipose tissue and whether inflammation affects ASC fate and function. Endpoints included inflammatory marker expression, expression of ASC-specific cell-surface markers, …
