Characterization of spent yeast streams from precision fermentations driven by ...

Deuchande, Teresa; Fundo, Joana F.; Rodrigues, Daniela; Pintado, Manuela E.; Amaro, Ana L.

Currently, valuable biomolecules are sustainably produced through fermentation using genetically modified microorganisms. However, this industry also generates several waste streams, such as spent yeast (SY). To close the sustainability loop in bioproduction, it is essential to define valorization strategies for such waste streams. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the compositional differences among these...


Protocatechuic acid as an inhibitor of lipid oxidation in meat

Deuchande, Teresa; Fundo, Joana F.; Pintado, Manuela E.; Amaro, Ana L.

Lipid oxidation is the principal driver of meat and meat product deterioration during shelf life, causing the loss of fresh meat color, flavor, and aroma. Currently, synthetic antioxidants are used to prevent oxidation, but increasing consumer demand for natural ones leaves the industry with few alternatives. In this study, protocatechuic acid (PCA), known to have high antioxidant activity, was evaluated as a p...


Induced autolysis of engineered yeast residue as a means to simplify downstream...

Fundo, Joana F.; Deuchande, Teresa; Rodrigues, Daniela A.; Pimentel, Lígia L.; Vidigal, Susana S. M. P.; Rodríguez-Alcalá, Luís M.; Pintado, Manuela E.

The objective of this work was to study the efficiency of different autolysis processes, combining different temperatures and pH conditions, when applied to a genetically engineered yeast residue. The determination of the supernatants’ dry weight showed that the autolysis time could be reduced to half, from 4 to 2 h, if the residue pH was increased from 5 to 8 at 50 °C (18.20% for 4 h and 18.70% for 2 h with a ...

Freeze-drying processes applied to melon peel: assessment of physicochemical at...

Sroy, Sengly; Miller, Fátima A.; Fundo, Joana F.; Silva, Cristina L. M.; Brandão, Teresa R. S.

Melon peel is recognized as a source of healthy nutrients and oxidant compounds. Being considered a non-edible part with no profit value, large amounts of melon rinds are discharged by fruit industries. Innovative food ingredients with potential health benefits may arise if these parts were conveniently transformed. The objective was to freeze-dry small melon peel cubes to attain a potential edible matrix. An o...


Effect of gaseous ozone process on cantaloupe melon peel: assessment of quality...

Miller, Fátima A.; Fundo, Joana F.; Garcia, Ester; Silva, Cristina L. M.; Brandão, Teresa R. S.

Fruit waste parts, particularly peel, are abundant sources of bioactive compounds. To be included in the formulation of value-added foods, peel needs to be transformed and subjected to a preservation process. Therefore, this study seeks to assess the effect of ozone on the quality and antilisterial indicators of cantaloupe melon peel paste, aiming at obtaining a product with the potential to be used as a food a...

Effect of non-thermal processing on the aromatic profile of Cantaloupe melon juice

Georgiev, Radoslav; Pereira, Joel; Fundo, Joana F.; Miller, Fátima A.; Brandao, Teresa R.S.; Chalova, Vesela I.; Silva, Cristina L. M.


Impact of ozone processing on microbiological, physicochemical, and bioactive c...

Sroy, Sengly; Fundo, Joana F.; Miller, Fátima A.; Brandão, Teresa R. S.; Silva, Cristina L. M.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of ozone treatment on microbiological decontamination (intrinsic microflora and inoculated Listeria innocua) and some physicochemical characteristics and bioactive compounds of Cantaloupe melon juice, also during refrigerated storage. To determine adequate ozone exposure, the survival curve of L. innocua was previously assessed. A thermal treatment was also...


UV-C light processing of Cantaloupe melon juice: evaluation of the impact on mi...

Fundo, Joana F.; Miller, Fátima A.; Mandro, Gabriela F.; Tremarin, Andréia; Brandão, Teresa R. S.; Silva, Cristina L. M.

UV-C light is a non-thermal technology with potential application in food industries. The objective was to assess UV-C radiation effect (13.44 W/m2) on microbiological decontamination and some quality characteristics of Cantaloupe melon juice, during refrigerated storage. Juice was inoculated with Listeria innocua (non-pathogenic surrogate of L. monocytogenes) and Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris spores (spoila...
