Light is one of the main factors modulating the biosynthesis of specialized metabolites, determining the cascade response activated by photoreceptors and the consequent modulation of expressed genes and biosynthetic pathways. Recent developments in light emitting diode (LED) technology have enab ...
... This study investigated the effect of superheated steam treatment (SST) and extrusion treatment (ET) on the changes of lipids in black soybean noodles (BSN) during storage. Degradation of lipids and formation of volatile compounds were closely related to the endogenous lipid-degrading enzyme activity. Both SST and ET could effectively inactivate lipase, lipoxygenase and peroxidase activity in blac ...

Abstract:
... Lipid oxidation is a major concern in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical sectors. The degradation of unsaturated lipids affects the nutritional, physicochemical, and organoleptic properties of products and can lead to off‐flavors and to the formation of potentially harmful oxidation compounds. To prevent or slow down lipid oxidation, different antioxidant additives are used alone or in combina ...

... Mauritia flexuosa, Bactris gasipaes, and Oenocarpus bataua are among the main palms in the Amazon used for food and medicinal purposes. The food most commonly derived from these are fruits, oil, and the larvae of the insect Rhynchophorus palmarum reared in their trunks. Palm fruits are used for oil extraction as they are rich in saturated fatty acids, fiber, pro-vitamin A, carotenoids, tocopherols ...
... Vitamin E is a group of isoprenoid chromanols with different biological activities. It comprises eight oil‐soluble compounds: four tocopherols, namely, α‐, β‐, γ‐, and δ‐tocopherols; and four tocotrienols, namely, α‐, β‐, γ, and δ‐tocotrienols. Vitamin E isomers are well‐known for their antioxidant activity, gene‐regulation effects, and anti‐inflammatory and nephroprotective properties. Considerin ...
