“…Green bell pepper ( Capsicum annuum ) is also known as capsicum and sweet pepper. The demand for green bell peppers has been increasing due to their potential beneficial health effects in human, including the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, hemorrhage and cancer, delaying the aging process and improving physical resistance (Tiamiyu et al, 2023). It is one of the highly remunerative vegetable crops grown in many countries (Ghose et al, 2018).…”

The main objective of this work is to assess the effect of natural extracts and its characterization for the mitigation of multiple pesticide residues in green bell pepper. In this study, four plant extracts such as Acacia concinna, Albizia amara, Tamarindus indica, and Azadirachta indica have been used to mitigate the six pesticides present in green bell pepper and its phytochemical constituents were analyzed using gas chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (GC–MS/MS). In addition to that, the method for the quantification of six pesticide residues in green bell pepper using GC–MS/MS was validated according to SANTE/11312/2021 guidelines. The extracts of Acacia concinna, Albizia amara, Tamarindus indica, and Azadirachta indica were showed effective mitigation for selected pesticides. The phytochemical compounds present in plant extracts were correlated with its effect on the mitigation of multiple pesticide residues. The T. indica showed better pesticide mitigation efficiency when compared to A. indica, A. amara, and A. concinna, respectively. The plant extracts showed higher mitigation efficiency for organophosphorous pesticides than the synthetic pyrethroids. The nutritional and sensorial properties of green bell pepper were highly retained after pesticide decontamination using plant extracts. The results of this work indicated the application of plant extracts for the mitigation of multiple pesticides in green bell pepper by household and commercial processing units. This study addressed the balance between food safety and food quality.Practical ApplicationsPesticide contamination in vegetables is one of the major global food safety issues and it poses potent threat to human health. Pesticide decontamination is always a challenging task due to the unpredictability of types and levels of pesticides and the presences of multiple pesticides in contaminated vegetables. Washing of vegetables with water is the common procedure followed by both household and commercial units. However, washing of vegetables only with water is not enough to reduce the multiple pesticides residues to safe levels. The washing of vegetables with chemical solutions and other thermal and non‐thermal processing could result in toxic byproduct formation based on the types of pesticides present in contaminated sample. Hence, in this study, the plant extracts were characterized for its efficiency on the mitigation of multiple pesticide residues in vegetables has been analyzed by Gas Chromatography—Triple Quadrupole Tandem Mass Spectrometry and the method has been validated according to SANTE/11312/2021 guidelines. The phytochemical compounds of the plant extracts could be correlated with the effective multiple pesticide decontamination efficiency and the plant extracts were found to retain the physicochemical properties of vegetables during washing. The results of this study showed that the selected plant extracts could enhance the food safety without compromising food quality. The results of this study could be useful for the formulation of vegetables cleaning solutions for the effective mitigation of multiple pesticide residues.

“…C. annuum L., C. baccatum L., C. chinensis L., C. pubescens L., and C. frutescens L. are the five domesticated species [4,5]. According to Barboza et al [6], pepper is the second most significant crop among Solanaceous fruits, whereas Tiamiyu et al [7] placed it third globally in terms of vegetable importance, behind tomato and onion.…”

To assess the impact of poultry manure fertilization on the yield and capsaicinoid content of sweet pepper cultivars, field experiments were carried out during the 2018 rainy seasons at two locations within the Sudan savanna agro-ecological region: the Teaching and Research Farm Bayero University Kano (l1o 58 N, 8o 25 E, and altitude 458 m) and Kadawa Irrigation Scheme Bunkure (l1o 42 N, 8o 33 E, and altitude 476 m). The experiment was a 4 x 3 factorial laid out in a randomized complete block design with four replicates comprising four levels of poultry manure (PM) (0, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 tha-1) and three cultivars of sweet pepper (Tattasai Dan Damasak, Yolo wonder and Nsukka yellow). The result reveals that the growth, yield and capcisinoid content of sweet pepper cultivars were greatly influenced by the application of PM. The application of 3.0 tha-1 of PM significantly gave taller plants, more branches, larger leaves, and a higher number of fruits. Similarly, the Dan Damasak cultivar significantly produced higher growth characters above, except for the number of fruits plant-1. The Dan Damasak and Yolo wonder cultivars at BUK and Yolo wonder at BKR significantly gave a higher number of fruit plants. Fresh fruit yield, total fruit yield, and capsaicinoid content were significantly higher with 3.0 tha-1 of PM at both locations. The Dan Damasak cultivar resulted in higher yield related characters at both locations. The capsaicinoid content was, however, significantly higher with Nsukka yellow (17.43 and 18.83 mg kg-1) at BUK and BKR locations, respectively. Thus, the application of 3.0 tha-1 PM combined with the Dan Damasak cultivar for improved growth and yield, while the Nsukka Yellow cultivar and the application of 3.0 tha-1 PM for higher capsaicinoid could be suggested to the farmers in the study area to improve the productivity of the crop.

“…El consumo de este tipo de compuestos es fundamental para la salud humana debido a su actividad antioxidante, antitumoral y antiviral (Cortés-Estrada et al 2020). Es una hortaliza presente en la dieta de muchas poblaciones del mundo, y representa una importante fuente de ingresos para los agricultores del sector agroindustrial (Fratianni et al 2020, Tiamiyu et al 2023. En este contexto, el objetivo del estudio fue investigar el efecto del cloruro de sodio como un auestresor y dos tipos de nanopartículas de óxido de zinc con morfología esférica y hexagonal, en el crecimiento y calidad de chile pimiento.…”

Las nanopartículas de óxido de zinc (NPs ZnO) han llamado la atencióndebido a sus propiedades benéficas y a que pueden aplicarse en la agricultura como nanofertilizantes, nanoreguladores de crecimiento y para mejorar parámetros de calidad. El uso de euestresores como cloruro de sodio (NaCl) puede mejorar lacalidad de varios cultivos de hortalizas con especial interés en atributos de calidad del fruto. El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar los efectos del NaCl comoeustrés y NPs ZnO sobre el crecimiento y calidad de chile pimento. Se evaluaron 10 tratamientos: aplicación de NPs de morfología esférica y hexagonal en dosis de 50 y 100 mg L−1 con y sin aplicación de NaCl (50 mM), más testigo salino y testigo absoluto. Se evaluaron variables agronómicas: como altura de la planta (AP), diámetro del tallo (DT), peso seco de la raíz (PSR) y planta (PSP), peso de frutos por planta (PFP) y variables de calidad de fruto como: firmeza, pH, conductividad eléctrica (C.E), solidos solubles totales (SST), acidez titulable (AT), potencial óxido-reducción (ORP) y vitamina C. Los resultados muestran que los tratamientos con nanopartículas a 50 y 100 mg L−1 aumentaron los parámetros de AP, PSR, PSP y PFP, la morfología hexagonal mejoró AP, PSR y PSP, la combinación de NaClmás NPs aumentaron el PSP y PFP, en parámetros de calidad de fruto el NaCl mejoró la firmeza y ORP, las NPs resultaron favorables para la calidad, aunque la forma esférica y hexagonal produjeron efectos similares.
