“…The REEs values of honeysuckle are in agreement with those reported by our previous report, 18 and the REEs levels of the rest of the fl owers were not found in literature. The levels of REEs in most measured fl ower samples were similar to the values of green tea leaf (Camellia sinensis L.) 12,19 from China and wild mushroom from Poland, 20 and were much higher than the values of rice and wheat 21 that was consider to be a main source of dietary REEs in China. 19 and navel orange 23 from China.…”

The aim of this study was to determine the sixteen rare earth elements (REEs) in twelve types of popular fl ower herb teas and their infusions consumed in China. Microwave-assisted acid digestion was used for all of the samples, and the contents of these elements were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The concentrations of REEs varied from 94.6 to 7492 µg kg -1 among these fl ower samples. Ce was the most abundant elements in all fl ower samples (27.3-3016 µg kg -1). The leached ratios of REEs for each type of tea ranged from 7.3% (globe amaranth) to 29.8% (carnation). The leach ratios of REEs in these fl ower herb teas were at different percentages depending on types of fl owers. The daily intake of rare earth oxides from these fl ower herb tea infusions may not produce any health risks.

“…A novel challenge in agriculture is the production of tailored foods, i.e., foods specifically suitable for target groups of people with particular nutritional needs. In fact, in recent years, a number of studies have highlighted the possibility of producing vegetables for specific physiological conditions, such as biofortified vegetables, with the aim of counteracting different nutritional deficits [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. In general, these authors reported evidence on the use of specific growing protocols aimed to increase the content of specific nutrients in plant tissues, such as iodine (I), silicon (Si), calcium (Ca), selenium (Se), zinc (Zn), and iron (Fe).…”

Hydroponic Production of Reduced-Potassium Swiss Chard and Spinach: A Feasible Agronomic Approach to Tailoring Vegetables for Chronic Kidney Disease Patients

Tailored foods are specifically suitable for target groups of people with particular nutritional needs. Although most research on tailored foods has been focused on increasing the nutrient content in plant tissues (biofortification), in populations with specific physiological conditions, it is recommended to reduce the uptake of specific nutrients in order to improve their health. People affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD) must limit their consumption of vegetables because of the generally high potassium (K) content in the edible parts. This study aimed to define an appropriate production technique for two baby leaf vegetables, spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) and Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris L. ssp. vulgaris), with reduced K tissue content, minimizing the negative effects on their crop performance and overall nutritional quality. Plants were grown in a hydroponic floating system. The K concentration in the nutrient solution (NS) was reduced from 200 mg/L (K200, the concentration usually used for growing baby leaf vegetables in hydroponic conditions) to 50 mg/L over the entire growing cycle (K50) or only during the seven days before harvest (K50-7d). The reduction of K in the NS resulted in a significant decrease of K tissue content in both species (32% for K50 and 10% for K50-7d, on average), while it did not, in general, compromise the crop performance and quality traits or the bioaccessibility of K, magnesium, and calcium. The production of reduced-potassium leafy vegetables is a feasible tailored nutrition approach for CKD patients in order to take advantage of the positive effects of vegetable consumption on health without excessively increasing potassium intake.

“…This phenomenon can be used in biofortification strategies in mushroom cultivation and result in their increased nutritional value or biological activity. A number of studies have already demonstrated that this approach can be employed to enrich the fruiting bodies of selected species with elements such as copper in Ganoderma lucidum [4]; iron (Fe) in Pleurotus ostreatus, P. cornucopiae, P. djamor, P. pulmonarius or P. djamor v. roseus [5]; lithium (Li) in G. lucidum, P. eryngii and P. ostreatus [6,7]; potassium (K) in P. eryngii, Flammulina velutipes or Hypsizygus marmoreus [8]; selenium (Se) in A. bisporus, P. eryngii, P. ostreatus, Pholiota nameko [9,10] and zinc (Zn) in G. lucidum and P. ostreatus [11]. Particular attention has been paid to substrate supplementation with inorganic Se salts as such an approach appears to potentially increase antioxidant, immunomodulatory and anticancer activities of selected mushrooms species [12,13].…”

The aim of this study was to examine the effects of substrate supplementation with germanium (Ge) and selenium (Se), alone or combined, on the growth, element accumulation and ergosterol content in the fruiting bodies of the mushroom species Ganoderma lucidum and Pleurotus ostreatus. Both species were grown in four independent experimental systems with different concentrations of germanium powder (1, 5 and 10 mM), selenite [Se(IV)] and selenate [Se(VI)] (0.1, 0.4 and 0.8 mM of each Se species). Se supplementation caused no observable changes to morphology while the addition of Ge induced changes in size and/or colour, especially for P. ostreatus. A synergistic effect of Ge supplementation on Se accumulation in fruiting bodies of G. lucidum was observed only at the two highest levels of supplementation with both elements. Even though inorganic Se was used to enrich the experimental substrates, organic Se compounds dominated in the fruiting bodies. Increasing levels of Ge in the substrates elevated the content of organic selenium in the fruiting bodies of G. lucidum. No such trend was recorded in P. ostreatus. The maximum mean Ge levels in P. ostreatus and G. lucidum reached up to 70 and 80 mg kg −1 , respectively. However, the bioaccessibility of this element was low, in the range 5.4-6.6% (P. ostreatus) and 0.4-7.6% (G. lucidum). Ergosterol content in the fruiting bodies of both species displayed the highest values in all the experimental systems supplemented with Se. The addition of Ge and Se + Ge resulted in losses of ergosterol content in comparison to cultivation with Se supplementation and control. The obtained results show the significant role of Ge-Se interaction in the accumulation of these elements in the studied mushroom species.
