  • Evaluation of Fusarium proliferatum Mycotoxin Profiles in Infected Garlic Cloves

    Creator:
    Rossi, Francesca
    Abstract:
    Fusarium proliferatum is a fungus found in soils which produces the mycotoxin group known as fumonisins. Of human concern due to hepato-, nephro- and neurotoxicity, the threat of fumonisins lies within several food items, including corn, wheat sorghum, asparagus and, more recently, garlic. Manifesting as ““garlic rot”,” F. proliferatum infection...

  • Investigating the effects of harvest time and light exposure on cannabinoid potency in industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa) using UPLC-diode array detection

    Creator:
    Saindon, Ashley L.
    Abstract:
    Five varieties of industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa) were grown in the field in Imperial Valley, CA, USA in order to determine whether light conditions or harvest times influence cannabinoid content. A total of 16 cannabinoids were investigated in this study: Delta-9-tetrahydrocannibinol (THC-d9), Delta-9-tetrahydrocannibinolic acid (THC-a), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabidiolic acid (CBD-a),...
