- Abstract:
- ... Climate change differentially affects tea yield at various altitudes; however, its impact on tea quality is less acknowledged. To understand the divergence in tea quality, we collected green tea samples from five sites (with varying altitude from 212 to 1020 m) on Lushan Mountain in Jiangxi Province, eastern China. Results showed that an increase in cultivation altitude decreased total tea polyphe ...

- Abstract:
- ... In last decade, Arthrospira has been considered an important source of high-quality nutrients and therefore it is suggested as a suitable functional food. In this work, Arthrospira maxima extracts were obtained in different conditions, varying solvents, time, temperature and extraction techniques, such as microwave- and ultrasound-assisted extraction (MAE and UAE, respectively). Total carotenoids ...

Recent studies have confirmed the possibility of an insoluble material to carry out a marked antioxidant activity by a solid–liquid interaction, and in such way opened a new chapter for dietary fiber application in food industry as a functional unit with radical scavenging capacity. Therefore, this paper investigates the possibility of improving the antioxidant activity of cookies with addition of ...

- Abstract:
- ... Predicate wines are sweet natural wines that in good years and appropriate conditions of ripening grapes on the vine, their degree of overripe and time of harvest, achieve a special quality. The aroma compounds of predicate wines from Croatia have not yet been studied. The predicate commercial wines (selected harvest wines and ice wines) of four different grape cultivars (‘Welschriesling’, ‘Kerner ...

- Abstract:
- ... A Turkish fermented sausage was bought from a local market in Erzurum and was used for isolation and characterization of lactic acid bacteria. As the result of 16S rRNA analysis, this bacterium was determined as Pediococcus acidilactici (Genbank number KF895384) at a rate of 99 %. The mannanase from P. acidilactici (M17) was purified using the (NH₄)₂SO₄ precipitation, DEAE-cellulose ion exchange a ...

The influence of the planting season on the nutritional as well as the aromatic composition of Hezuo 903 tomato was investigated by combining use of nutrition analysis, sensory evaluation, electronic nose and electronic tongue analysis, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) and GC–MS–olfactometry (GC–MS–O) method. The results suggested that in-season tomato contained higher levels of reduci ...

- Abstract:
- ... The swelling properties and thus baking performance of starch strongly depend on mechanical starch modification (MSM), which can be influenced by grinding. To analyze the effect of starch influencing factors on dough fermentation properties and specific bread volume, different MSM levels were obtained using a ball mill. This treatment led to an increase in the water-holding capacity and a decrease ...

- Abstract:
- ... Single cell oils (SCO) can be a source of nutritionally valuable fatty acids and raw material in biodiesel production. Among the oleaginous yeasts, those which additionally generate carotenoid pigments are beneficially distinguished. Rhodotorula and Sporobolomyces strains were screened for the ability to grow and produce intracellular lipids in medium containing pure glycerol. In this paper, we ve ...

- Abstract:

In the present study, physicochemical properties of commercially available cocoa butter equivalents (CBE) and hard palm mid fraction (PMF) are compared with those of CB. Subsequently, their functionality in real and compound chocolate w ...

- Abstract:
- ... Beer filterability is strongly related to the amount and molar mass distribution of β-glucan. Different commercial quantification methods yield different β-glucan concentrations and beer filterability. In order to acquire detailed information on the measureable molar mass and its impact on beer filtration, six high-throughput methods were developed and analysed. These methods involve three calibra ...
