Abstract:
Blueberries are rich in polyphenolic compounds and have shown improvement in cognitive function in several clinical trials. The molecular basis of the neuronal protection of blueberries, however, is not fully understood. The objective of this research is to understand the biochemistry basis of neuronal protection effects of blueberries through their impacts on several enzymes and pathways involved in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. We examined the inhibition effects of blueberries on the enzymatic activity of cholinesterase (acetylcholinesterase, AChE; and butyrylcholinesterase, BuChE), tyrosinase, and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). The effects of blueberries on the biosynthesis of acetylcholinesterase in a cellular model were also studied. Further, the effect of blueberries on amyloid fibril formation was evaluated. Our results showed that blueberries directly inhibit the enzymatic activity of AChE, BuChE, tyrosinase, and COX-2, with the IC50 at 48 mg/mL, 9 mg/mL, 403 mg/mL, and 12 mg/mL of fresh berry equivalent, respectively. Further, blueberries delay the amyloid fibril formation by 24 h at 39 mg fresh berry/mL. It also reduces the synthesis of acetylcholinesterase synthesis at 19 mg fresh berry/mL in a cellular model. Those results suggested that the neuroprotection effects of blueberries may involve different pathways, including enhancing cholinergic signaling through their effect on cholinesterase, reducing neuroinflammation through inhibition of COX-2, and reducing amyloid formation. Collectively, blueberries may play a vital role in neuronal protection beyond their antioxidant activity and our results provide more molecular mechanisms for their neuroprotective effects, and support blueberries being nutraceutical to improve cognitive function.

Abstract:
In recent years, there has been a significant interest in beverages with increased biological value, such as beer with blueberries. In this study, blueberries were added at the beginning of maturation of lager beer with an initial extract of 12, 14 and 16ºP. The effect of blueberries addition on yeast metabolism was investigated as concentration of ethanol, higher alcohols, esters, aldehydes, and vicinal diketones in the final beer were measured and compared to control samples without blueberries. The results showed that blueberries affected positively ethanol formation only when wort with initial extract of 12°P was used and had no significant effect when wort with higher extract was used. In regard to secondary metabolites, blueberries addition led to a decrease in higher alcohols concentration and an increase in esters amounts. All the carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and vicinal diketones) were higher in beer with blueberries.

Abstract:
The kinetics of moisture loss and solids gain during osmotic dehydration of blueberries under different conditions of temperature (37--60°C), concentration of the sucrose solution (47--70°Brix) and contact time between fruit and sucrose solution (0.5--5.5 h) were studied, and modeled based on Fick's law of unsteady state diffusion. The rates of moisture loss and solids gain were also related to temperature and sucrose concentration.
The second stage convective drying behavior of osmo-dehydrated blueberries was evaluated in a forced air cabinet dryer (temperature: 50°C, relative humidity: 14%, air velocity: 0.6 m/s) with a cross-flow tray arrangement. Osmotic dehydration pre-treatments included different combinations of temperature, sucrose concentration and contact time. Fick's second law of unsteady state diffusion was used to model the air drying kinetics.
The quality of two-stage osmo-convective dried blueberries with respect to color, texture and rehydration ratio was evaluated. The parameters analyzed for color were the total color difference (DeltaE) and, the (a/b) ratio as the indicator for the red-blue color. The texture analysis included evaluation of the hardness, chewiness and stickiness of the osmo-convective dried blueberries. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Abstract:

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of propagation media containing composted material on the rooting of hardwood and softwood blueberry cuttings. The physical properties were measured at the end of the experiment. The media used were pine bark fines, composted pine bark with ammoniated nitrogen added, hardwood bark and composted chicken manure, pine bark and cotton gin waste, and control (peat moss and perlite, 1:1). All treatments resulted in a low number of rooted hardwood cuttings compared to the control. The total number of roots per cutting and alive cuttings hardwood cuttings was increased by pine bark and ammoniated nitrogen compared to the remaining treatments. The control treatment resulted in the highest number of roots per softwood cutting. None of the treatments increased the number of roots of softwood cuttings and the number of alive cuttings was increased by all treatments compared to the control.

Abstract:
Field experiments were conducted from 1989 to 1991 to evaluate several sulfonylurea herbicides, glyphosate and clopyralid for the control of bunchberry and other hexazinone tolerant weeds in lowbush blueberry. Broadcast applications of chlorosulfuron, metsulfuron and glyphosate reduced bunchberry densities at all application dates, though crop damage and subsequent yield reductions were unacceptable. Glyphosate was very effective in controlling a large number of plant species when applied as a spot spray treatment. Tribenuron and DPX R9674 were effective in suppressing bunchberry stem densities at all application dates, without major adverse effects on blueberry, and also controlled a large number of hexazinone tolerant weeds when applied as a spot spray treatment. Clopyralid, at rates as low as 100 g a.i. ha$ sp{-1}$, was very effective as a broadcast treatment for the control of tufted vetch, although problems with crop tolerance and yield reductions were evident in some instances. Clopyralid did not control a large number of hexazinone tolerant species when applied as a spot spray treatment.

Abstract:
The topicality of the topic is explained by the importance of fruits, namely blueberries for the health of human society, being an important segment of the food industry. The importance of blueberries in human nutrition and for the food industry remains indisputable due to their consumer properties. Nutritionists recommend the implementation of these products in the daily ration without restrictions in order to constantly benefit from its many health benefits. The aim is to study the product characteristics of blueberries, their consumption properties and the quality of blueberries. In order to carry out the planned research, the normative acts in force were consulted, namely, ГОСТ 342192017, ЧЕРНИКА И ГОЛУБИКА СВЕЖИЕ. Технические условия/ UNECE STANDARD FFV-57:2010. The evaluation of the quality of blueberries is performed by determining the organoleptic and physico-chemical indices established in the respective reference documents (standards or other normative acts) and the specialized literature. The data obtained from organoleptic research demonstrate the full compliance of the real indices with the prescribed requirements, so all three types of blueberries correspond to regulations. The research results fully comply with the prescribed requirements

Abstract:
Turkish delight (lokum) is a sweet product originating in Turkey made from sugar, food flavors and starch. The delights dates back more than 300 years and is one of the oldest sweets in the world. Technologies have evolved and with them the demands of consumers have also diversified. People are in search for everything new and healthy in terms of nutrition, this being the reason for the development of a new kind of Turkish delight. The aim of this study is to analyze the physico-chemical and sensorial properties of two types of blueberries Turkish delight. First type is made from the culture blueberry and the second one is made from the forest blueberry. The physico- chemical properties analyzed for both varieties of blueberries and as well on the finished products are: pH, total acidity, viscosity, dry substance, moisture content, protein, ash, total polyphenol content and the antioxidant activity. It was determined that Turkish delight sample containing forest blueberry it has a greater amount of active biological compounds. According to the results, for the raw material, the pH values indicate that cultivated blueberries are less acidic than wild blueberries. And as for the finished product, compared to the control sample, it is found that due to the thermal process and the concentration of sugar present in the blueberries, the pH value decreases for the two varieties made. Regarding the acidity, it was found that cultivated blueberries have a medium acidity, and forest blueberries have a low acidity. And for the finished product, the Turkish delight obtained with wild blueberries has a higher acidity. From the point of view of sensory analysis, the product obtained from cultivated blueberry puree has higher sensory properties than the one obtained from forest blueberry puree.

Abstract:
Fruits are vital to consumer diets and are an important part of the U.S. agricultural industry. Two berries--strawberries and blueberries--are among the most important fruits. With more than $2 billion in annual farm gate sales and accounting for a 13-percent share of total production value of fruit, strawberries rank third for all fruit produced in the United States. Blueberries account for 5 percent of total fruit production value. This report examined changes in domestic production, consumption, prices, and trade for strawberries and blueberries over two decades. This study helps understand how the major berry markets evolved in a short time and examined opportunities and challenges these markets face.--

Full text
Abstract:
European starlings (Sturnus vulgaris, Figure 1)are an invasive species in the United States. The first recorded release of the birds was in 1890 in New York City’s Central Park. Because starlings easily adapt to a variety of habitats, nest sites and food sources, the birds spread quickly across the country. Today, there are about 150 million starlings in North America. Conflicts between people and starlings occur mostly in agricultural settings. Starlings damage apples, blueberries, cherries, figs, grapes, peaches, and strawberries. Starlings gather at concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) during late fall and winter. Starlings also cause human health problem, airplane hazards, and nuisance problems. European starlings are not protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA).

This paper surveys overall export growth in Chile and focuses on three case studies of the emergence of successful export activities in Chile: wine, pork and blueberries. Each case study discusses how companies, associations, and governments at various levels have addressed market failures and facilitated the provision of public goods necessary for each activity. The case studies additionally profile first movers in each activity and describe the positive externalities they provide to imitators, particularly diffusion of export knowledge. Also included are counterfactual cases of a less successful firm or activity (an unsuccessful wine exporter, other types of berries, and commodity pork production rather than custom cuts, respectively) and a discussion of policy implications.

Abstract:
An electronic sensory system for the evaluation of headspace volatiles was developed to determine fruit ripeness and quality. Two prototype systems were designed, constructed, and later modified. The first is an improved version of our original prototype electronic sniffer using a single head sensing unit for use as a single or paired unit placed on an individual fruit surface for applications in the field, lab, or industry. The second electronic sniffer utilizes a matrix of gas sensors, each selected for differential sensitivity to a range of volatile compounds. This system is more sophisticated as it uses multiple gas sensors, but was found to enhance the ability of the sniffer to classify fruit ripeness and quality relative to a single gas sensor. This second sniffer was designed and constructed for the sampling of fresh-cut or whole packs of fruits such as packaged strawberries and blueberries, and can serve as a prototype for research or commercial applications. Results demonstrate that electronic sensing of fruit ripeness based on aromatic volatile gas emissions can be used successfully with fresh frits. Aroma sensing was successful for classifying ripeness in muskmelons, including different cultivars, apples, blueberries, strawberries, and in a complimentary BARD project on tomatoes. This system compared favorably to the physicochemical measurements traditionally employed to assess fruit maturity. This nondestructive sensory system can detect the presence of physically damaged fruits and shows excellent application for use in quality assessment. Electronic sensors of the tin oxide type were evaluated for specificity toward a wide range of volatiles associated with fruit ripeness. Sensors were identified that detected a broad range of alcohols, aldehydes, esters, hydrocarbons, and volatile sulfur compounds, as well as individual volatiles associated with fruit ripening across a wide concentration range. Sensors are not compound specific, thus, the matrix of sensors coupled with discrimination analysis provides a fingerprint to identify the presence of compounds and to assess alterations in fresh products due to alterations in volatile emissions. Engineering developments led to the development of a system to compensate for temperature and relative humidity relative to on-line aroma sensing with melons for ripeness determination and to reduce response time, thus permitting the electronic sniffer to be used for monitoring both fresh and processed food products. The sniffer provides a fast, reliable and nondestructive tool to assess fruit ripeness and quality. We hope that our work will foster the introduction and utilization of this emerging technology into the agricultural and horticultural

Abstract:
This edition of IDEA draws from a forthcoming IDB book, Export Pioneers in Latin America, which analyzes a series of case studies of successful new export activities throughout the region to learn how pioneers jumpstart a virtuous process leading to economic transformation. The cases of blueberries in Argentina, avocados in Mexico and aircraft in Brazil illustrate how an initially successful export activity did not stop with the discovery of a single viable product, but instead continued to evolve.
