Abstract:
... Thermal stabilities of lycopene and β-carotene in tomato pulp and pink grapefruit juice were studied at 80, 95 and 110 °C. Lycopene and β-carotene degradations in both products followed to first-order reaction kinetics, but biphasic curves were obtained for β-carotene degradation. Stabilities of both pigments are highly affected by processing temperatures. For example, t₁/₂ values for lycopene deg ...

Abstract:
... Detecting food adulteration has always been an important task for food safety, especially when grapefruit is the adulterant as components in the juice have undesired interactions with many medicines. In this study we employed a handheld Raman device to detect adulteration of orange juices with grapefruit juices. Fresh fruits of orange and grapefruit were purchased from five different sources and f ...

Abstract:
... Grapefruit (GF) Citrus Χ paradisi Macfad (F. Rutaceae) is one of the major citrus fruits that encompass a myriad of bioactive chemicals and most unique among citrus fruits. Nevertheless, no study has yet to assess comprehensively its multitudinous constituents, health benefits, and valuable waste products. Hereto, the present review provides an updated comprehensive review on the different aspects ...

Abstract:
... Crossflow microfiltration was implemented to enrich a clementine/pink grapefruit juice in carotenoids, flavonoids and pectins modulating its sugar content thanks to an added diafiltration step. Using tubular ceramic membrane with pore diameter of 0.2 μm at 30–40 °C, a crossflow velocity of 5 m‧s⁻¹ and a transmembrane pressure of 2.6 bar, the impact of the process was assessed focusing on bioactive ...
... The phloem-restricted, insect-transmitted bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas) is associated with huanglongbing (HLB), the most devastating disease of citrus worldwide. The inability to culture CLas impairs the understanding of its virulence mechanisms and the development of effective management strategies to control this incurable disease. Previously, our research group used comme ...
... This study evaluated the effectiveness of spraying juices, during shortwave ultraviolet irradiation (UVC) treatments as an alternative to promote more contact area, by means of ultrasonic atomization (UA) and pneumatic atomization (PA). Four juices with dissimilar physical characteristics were processed to assess the effect of suspended solids and turbidity. Antioxidant activity, anthocyanins, asc ...
... An enzymatic membrane reactor (EMR) is assembled for the immobilization of naringinase on a polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membrane, based on fouling-induced method. The effects of molecular weight cut-off, membrane configuration, applied pressure, enzyme concentration and pH are studied in terms of permeate rate, immobilization efficiency, and biocatalytic conversion. The 10 kDa membrane operat ...
... About 90% of grapefruit in Florida are affected by Huanglongbing (HLB). HLB negatively affects the organoleptic properties of grapefruit juice because affected trees overproduce bitter secondary-metabolites, mostly naringin. The objective of this research was to remove naringin from HLB-affected grapefruit juice using microporous-adsorbents and to investigate how debittering affected narirutin, li ...
... Orange juice is a kind of fruit juice with huge market share. The most common adulteration is the addition of mandarin juice and grapefruit juice. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a method that can simultaneously detect mandarin and grapefruit components in orange juice. In this study, the specific site of the trnL-trnF gene of mandarin and the specific site of the accD-psaI gene of grapefrui ...

Abstract:
... The aim of the present study was to compare the information provided by a discrete and continuous data analysis of two emotions (disgust and joy), elicited by bitter‐tasting beverages (coffee, yerba mate infusion and grapefruit juice) in two groups with different body mass index (BMI): overweight group (25 < BMI < 30), and healthy‐weight control group (18.5 < BMI ≤ 25). Participants (n = 66; 34 fe ...

Abstract:
... Organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs) 1A2 and OATP2B1 are expressed in the small intestine and are involved in drug absorption. We identified narirutin, which is present in grapefruit juice, as a novel OATP inhibitor. The citrus fruit jabara also contains high levels of narirutin; therefore, we investigated the inhibitory potency of jabara juice against OATPs. The inhibitory effects of v ...

Abstract:
... Side-stream tubular membranes are largely used to perform cross-flow microfiltration of fruit juices. However, this configuration presents well-known drawbacks (e.g. energy consumption). Immersed membranes configurations have been developed in many fields to overcome these disadvantages. This paper investigates for the first time the possibility of using immersed configuration for fruit juices mic ...

Abstract:
... The objective of this study was to investigate the relationships between taste responsiveness and food liking in preadolescents. Model food samples of grapefruit juice (GF) and vegetable broth (VB) modified with four additions of sucrose and sodium chloride, respectively, were employed. Intensity perception for sweetness, sourness, and bitterness were measured in GF while saltiness and umami were ...

Abstract:
... Furanocoumarins are the main compounds responsible for the food–drug interactions known as the grapefruit effect, which is caused by the inhibition of CYP3A4-mediated drug metabolism. We evaluated the effects of two new, low-furanocoumarin grapefruit cultivars on CYP3A4 activity and the roles of different furanocoumarins, individually and together with other juice compounds, in the inhibition of C ...

The three biases that were investigated were the potential differential use of the no preference option, a predisposition in choosing the first stimulus in a pair, and finally a potential tendency of picking the stimulus with the numerically high ...

Abstract:
... The effects of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium (CRP) and grapefruit juice (GFJ) on the pharmacokinetics of omeprazole were investigated in this study. Sprague–Dawley rats were pretreated with CRP decoction or GFJ for 28 consecutive days. After a single intragastric administration of 6.0 mg/kg, the concentration of omeprazole in the plasma was determined by high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPL ...
... Florida juice processors amassed 51,000 metric tons of grapefruit juice processing residues (GFPR) in the 2018-19 season. GFPR contain valuable compounds such as pectic hydrocolloids, peel oil, sugars, phenolics and flavonoids that are ultimately lost or destroyed when they are converted to low value animal feed and molasses. If these compounds could be isolated from GFPR rather than destroyed, th ...
... In the present work, enzymes pectinase and naringinase were simultaneously co-immobilized on an eco-friendly chitosan coated magnetic nanoparticles (chitosanMNPs) by cross-linking using chitosan as a macro-molecular cross-linker. The maximum activity recovery of both enzymes in the co-immobilized form was obtained at chitosanMNPs to enzymes ratio of 1:3, 3% cross-linker concentration and 150 min c ...

Abstract:
... The novel, previous unreported induction heating technique developed here uses the inverse process of the existing induction heating techniques. The theoretical basis for developing this technique is to determine whether the induced current passing through a winding food coil would induce a magnetic flux or cause an increase in primary current. Therefore, to develop this technique and implement it ...

Abstract:
... There is convincing evidence that sugar-sweetened beverages increase the risk of body weight (BW) gain and higher body mass index. In contrast, observational studies on regular consumption of 100% fruit juice provide conflicting results, with most indicating a neutral impact on BW and body mass index, while others suggest positive or even inverse associations. The lack of agreement may be due to c ...
