SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Children

Children with COVID-19 typically experience milder symptoms and lower hospitalization rates, though severe cases do occur. Understanding age-related immune responses is crucial for future preparedness. We characterized immune response dynamics to SARS-CoV-2 in 145 samples from 119 pediatric patients (<18 years) with confirmed infection, assessed at four distinct time points: <14 days, 14 days-3 months, 3-6 mont...

Impact of circular brewer's spent grain flour after in vitro gastrointestinal d...

Brewer’s spent grain (BSG) solid residues are constituted by dietary fibre, protein, sugars, and polyphenols, which can have potential effects on human health. In this study, for the first time, the flours obtained from solid residues of solid-liquid extraction (SLE) and ohmic heating extraction (OHE) were applied throughout the gastrointestinal digestion simulation (GID), in order to evaluate their prebiotic p...

Exploring the bioactive potential of brewers spent grain ohmic extracts

Ohmic based brewer's spent grain (BSG) hydro-ethanolic extracts were produced and their composition and biological potential through evaluation of their antibacterial, antibiofilm and antihypertensive activities were characterized. Ohmic Heating Extraction (OHE) was performed using two aqueous extractions of ethanol (60 and 80% ethanol:water (v/v)). A polyphenolic profile was performed and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid...

Correction for Bioactive extracts from brewer's spent grain by Teresa Bonifácio-Lopes et al., Food Funct., 2020, 11, 89638977, DOI: 10.1039/D0FO01426E.

Prebiotic effects of olive pomace powders in the gut: In vitro evaluation of th...

Olive pomace is a biowaste rich in polyphenols and insoluble dietary fibre with high potential to develop new value chains towards a sustainable and circular bioeconomy. Regarding gut health, olive pomace phenolics and insoluble dietary fibre (after possible fermentation) could act as antioxidants, antimicrobial and prebiotic agents. These potential beneficial effects on the gut were analysed for two powders fr...

Incorporation of olive pomace ingredients into yoghurts as a source of fibre an...

Liquid-enriched powder (LOPP) and pulp-enriched powder (POPP) obtained from olive pomace were incorporated into yoghurt, not only, to increase its content in dietary fibre, hydroxytyrosol and unsaturated fatty acids, but also to understand the lipids-phenolics interaction by simultaneous incorporation of olive oil. POPP (2%) and LOPP (1%) addition to yoghurt allowed fulfilling the condition of being a source of...

Current extraction techniques towards bioactive compounds from brewers spent gr...

Background: Brewers spent grain is one of the most abundant by-products of the brewing industry and is rich in various bioactive compounds (phenolic acids, insoluble dietary fiber and proteins). While at the present brewers spent grain is mainly used as animal feed its rich nutritional content makes it an interesting alternative for food applications. Scope and approach: As the range of applications of the bioa...

Bioactive extracts from brewer's spent grain

In this study, antioxidant-rich extracts from brewer's spent grain (BSG) extracted by solid-to-liquid extraction using different solvents water and ethanol and their mixtures at two ratios (80% ethanol:water (v/v) and 60% ethanol:water (v/v)) were characterized. Nutritional composition was evaluated for the extracts and for the solid residues obtained after extraction. Additionally, the extracts were analyzed f...
