The Antioxidant Profile of Some Species of Microgreens Cultivated on Hemp and Coconut Substrate Under the Action of a Biostimulator Based on Humic Acids
(MDPI, 2024-11-21) Marta, Alina-Elena; Stoica, Florina; Ostaci, Ștefănica; Jităreanu, Carmenica-Doina
Microplants are vegetables, grains and aromatic herbs that are consumed in the stage of young plants, without roots, developed after the germination stage, in the stage of cotyledons and which have a high content of nutrients (antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, lutein, β-carotene, proteins and fibers, etc.), which makes them functional, concentrated foods capable of feeding the world’s ever-growing population. The significant amounts of antioxidants in microgreens have the role of neutralizing free radicals and reducing their harmful impact on human health. The microgreens studied were spinach (Spinacia oleracea) cultivar ‘Lorelay’, mustard (Sinapis alba) cultivar ‘White’ and radish (Raphanus sativus) cultivar ‘Red Rambo’, tested on hemp and coconut substrates and under the influence of the organic biostimulator Biohumussol, based on humic acids. The antioxidant content of the plants was determined by analyzing total carotenoids, lycopene, chlorophyll, β-carotene, polyphenols and flavonoids, as well as the antioxidant activity by ABTS and DPPH methods. The obtained results indicated that the reaction of the plant material depends on the composition of the substrate and the presence of the applied biostimulator. The highest contents of substances with an antioxidant role were obtained from the microgreens on the hemp substrate, especially mustard and radishes, and the biostimulator proved to be compatible with the spinach microgreens.

Change management in tourism in the context of the Covid 19 pandemic
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2020) Panaitescu, Manuela; Renea, Petronela
Tourism is an important sector with an impact on the development of a country’s economy. The main benefits of tourism are generation of income and creation of jobs. For many countries it is the most important source of well-being. The dizzyingly rapid spread of COVID-19 infections has caused Romania to face a crisis situation for the management of which it is striving to find solutions. The impact of the crisis is strongly felt both in terms of the capacity of economic agents to manage human resources, but also in terms of trade relations with business partners. The situation we are in, but especially the one we want to reach, requires urgent and radical measures. The main objectives of the managers must be: removing tourism from its critical state and resetting the entire hospitality industry, positioning itself on other coordinates, taking into account global trends in the field and considering the successful international models and local specificities. One of the unexpected effects of this pandemic is that organizations have acknowledged the benefits of digital transformation. Given the long-term coexistence with some restrictions, companies are more inclined to analyze their processes and procedures and rethink their operations, so that remote work becomes the new mode of operation.

Researches on the reproductive performance of cultivated carp (Cyprinus carpio, Linne, 1758), variety without scales Moldova - Podu Iloaie grown in fish farms in Northern Moldova
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2020) Bădilaș, I.N.; Păsărin, Benone
The biological material used for this work was represented by breeders of Romanian cultured carp (Cyprinus carpio) variety without scales Moldova - Podu Iloaie, of different ages exploited and reproduced in the conditions offered by fish farms in northern Moldova. In this sense, at the beginning of 2019, 6 experimental groups of carp breeders of different ages were formed, which were monitored throughout the period of naturally directed reproduction, in two fish farms in Iași County. The present paper aims to make a comparative analysis of the results obtained from the natural directed reproduction of carp (Cyprinus carpio, Linne, 1758) variety without scales Moldova - Podu Iloaie, from the 6 experimental groups. In this sense, it was determined the weight and some body indices in carp breeders, the determination of female prolificacy, the survival rate of the pre-developed brood obtained from breeders in the six groups.

Study on the maintenance status and biochemistry of Pontic shad Alosa immaculata (Bennet, 1835) during migration
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2020) Savin, Viorica; Mocanu, Elena; Patriche, N.; Tenciu, Magdalena; Savin, C.; Stroe, Desimira; Popa, D.; Năstase, Georgiana
In Romania, Pontic shad (Alosa immaculata) is a fish with a high commercial value, with an average annual catch of 200-500 tons, according to ANPA statistics. The shad meat is appreciated for its fine taste, but also for its fat, which is made up of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The aim of this study is to bring new data on biological parameters, maintenance status and biochemical composition of Pontic shad (A. immaculata), during the period of maximum migration (April), on the Danube section the river mouth, where it flows into the Black Sea, and the point km 197, in Braila county. The samples were taken from 3 different points: St. Gheorghe arm (station 1), Isaccea village, Tulcea county at km 103 of the Danube (station 2) and Chiscani village, Braila county at km 197 of the Danube’s mouth (station 3). The age of fish ranged from 3 to 5 years. The most abundant specimens are groups aged 3 years (40%) and 4 years (36%). The gender structure of catches is represented by 53% females and 47% males. The Fulton condition factor had values between 1.13 and 1.28, with the highest value at the beginning of the migration, in the area of the St. Gheorghe arm (1.28) and the lowest value (1.13) at 197 km from the Danube’s mouth, in the intermediate area, at km 103 the value being 1.15. The percentages of lipids in the meat of the Pontic shad taken from stations 2 and 3 were relatively equal, of 17.62%, respectively 17.65%, the highest value being registered in station 1, at St. Gheorghe, where the value was 18.60%. The percentage of proteins for the biological material from Station 1 – St. Gheorghe was 0.4% lower than that of the samples taken from Station 2 - Isaccea, km 130 and 0.85% lower than that from Station 3 - Chiscani, km 197, the differences being insignificant (P> 0.05).

Common carp adaptability (Cipryinus carpio) to rearing in floating fish cages installed in irrigation canal
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2020) Nistor, Veta; Mirea, D.; Athanasopoulos, Liliana-Blondina; Tenciu, Magdalena; Brânză, Dorina
With the increases of world fish consumption and stagnation of wild fish catches, the contribution of aquaculture to world fish production has steadily increased from 25.7% in 2000 to 46.8% in 2016. Integration of aquaculture in irrigation canals, respectively dual use of the same water, first for fish production and later for irrigation is a relatively new technological concept, used to maximize the efficiency of water use, by designing and locating removable installations and establishing technologies for rearing fish in small bodies of water ( irrigation canals). The CM LUNCA irrigation canal on which the experiment took place was artificially built in 1969 and serves a very large agricultural area; is part of the irrigation network of Covurlui Plain and is managed by A.N.I.F., Southern Moldova branch. The irrigation system of which C.M.L. is part of, consists of the main pumping station SPA Dunărea, 6 pumping stations SPR, 21 pressure stations SPP, 37 canal motor pumps, 126 km irrigation canals. The Lunca Magistral Canal has a length of 19240 m and stretches from km 78.4 of the Danube from where it makes its outlet, passes behind Lake Brateș and reaches close to Vânători commune. The Danube pumping station is the main station of the Covurlui Plain (S.P.A.) subsystem and takes the water from the Danube river through the gravitational outlet with a flow of 54 mc/s. The distribution of water on the canals is ensured by the main dam, which has three openings with cofferdam and flat dams. The water from the C.M.L. currently irrigates only 5566 ha, located on the first terrace (surface that requires about 3m/s), and the surplus is intended for the upper terraces, which require a pumping height Hp = 90m. The adaptation of the carp species to rearing in floating fish cages from the CM Lunca canal was made in a time interval between 3 and 7 days from the population of the ponds, at a density of 150 ex/m3 and a distance from the crown of the dam between 17,5m and 30,5m.
