Anti-inflammatory and metabolic effects of lentil phenolic compounds

Industrial byproduct pine nut skin factorial design optimization for production...

Pine nut skin (Pinus pinea L.) is a poorly explored industrial byproduct with potential to be utilized as a food ingredient. Subcritical water extraction (SWE), an eco-friendly extraction technique with higher efficiency than hot-water extraction (HWE), was studied to evaluate its suitability in producing extracts rich in soluble fiber and phenolic compounds. For this, a factorial design was developed consideri...

Investigating the Influence of Vessel Shape on Spontaneous Fermentation in Wine...

The earliest archaeological evidence of wine came from ceramic vessels of the Tran- scaucasian ‘Shulaveri-Shomutepe’ or ‘Aratashen-Shulaveri-Shomutepe culture’ (SSC/AShSh: c. 6000–5200 BC). Western European ‘Bell Beaker culture’ (BB: c. 2500–2000 BC) is characterized by bell- shaped pottery vessels but has so far not been found with residues consistent with wine. Knowing that wild grapes populated both habitats...

Unravelling the effect of phenolic compounds in the design of a yeast protein-b...

Mayonnaise is an oil in water emulsion of egg, oil and an acid, worldwide consumed. The major chal-lenges of the mayonnaise industry include searching for an alternative protein source. This study evaluatesan alternative protein source, yeast protein extract (YPE), to replace egg in the mayonnaise model. Fur-thermore, the natural ability of phenolic compounds (PCs) to bind to proteins was studied to enhance the...

Behind the scenes of anthocyanins—From the health benefits to potential applica...

<jats:p>Anthocyanins are widespread and biologically active water-soluble phenolic pigments responsible for a wide range of vivid colours, from red (acidic conditions) to purplish blue (basic conditions), present in fruits, vegetables, and coloured grains. The pigments’ stability and colours are influenced mainly by pH but also by structure, temperature, and light. The colour-stabilizing mechanisms of plants ar...

Identification of gallotannins and ellagitannins in aged wine spirits : a new p...

This research was focused on identifying gallotannins and ellagitannins degradation pathways to better understand their behavior in complex media such as wine spirits (WS). A WS was aged with chestnut wood staves with three levels of micro-oxygenation, nitrogen, and using wooden barrels. Gallotannins and ellagitannins were identified by LC-ESI-HRMS/MS using a Q-TOF in samples collected at 8, 21, 60, 180, 270, a...

Physicochemical and nutritional profile of leaves, flowers, and fruits of the e...

Leaves, flowers and fruits from the edible halophyte chorão-da-praia (Carpobrotus edulis), harvested in the Portuguese western sea shores, were characterized regarding their proximate composition, fatty acid profile, pigments, phenolic compounds, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Fruits had the highest amount of carbohydrates (70.2 ± 1.6%) and the lowest of protein (4.67 ± 0.22%) and ash (22.0 ± 1.0%) c...

Physicochemical and nutritional characterization of the leaves, flowers and fru...

Leaves, flowers and fruits from the edible halophyte Chorão da praia (Carpobrotus edulis), harvested in Portuguese west shores, were characterized regarding their proximate composition, phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity. Flowers and leaves had similar protein content (5.42±0.15 and 5.22 ±0.13 % DW, respectively), being higher than fruits (4.67±0.22 %). No significant differences were observed in the l...

Insights into the development of grapefruit nutraceutical powder by spray dryin...

The development of functional and nutraceutical foods comes from a greater awareness of the relationship between food and health by consumers. In recent years, the idea of purifying and encapsulating bioactive compounds through techniques such as spray drying has been well received by the food industry. The development and characterization of a grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) nutraceutical powder obtained by spray...
