Inhibition of in vitro trichothecenes production by microalgae phenolic extracts.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
There is evidence that microalgae phenolic compounds can inhibit the growth of toxigenic fungi. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of microalgae phenolic extracts to inhibit trichothecene production by Fusarium genus and thereby identify parame...

In vitro colonic fermentation of Mexican "taco" from corn-tortilla and black beans in a Simulator of Human Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME®) system.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
A Mexican staple food prepared with corn "tortilla" (Zea mays L.) and common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is named as "taco". It was fermented in an in vitro colonic Simulator of Human Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME®) to evaluate the effect in short cha...

Sensory characterization and acceptance of coffee brews of C. arabica and C. canephora blended with steamed defective coffee.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Steam treatment has been reported as an alternative to improve the cup quality of coffee; in this research, it was applied to C. canephora defective coffee. The aim of the study was to evaluate the sensory perception of steamed defective C. canephora...

Specialized oxygenated heterocyclics from Villorita cyprinoides with cyclooxygenase-2 and 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory properties.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Villorita cyprinoides is traditional seafood in the coastal regions of Arabian Sea. Bioactivity-guided purification of ethyl acetate:methanol extract of V. cyprinoides resulted in the identification of two O-spirocyclic ether derivatives (1-2) along ...

Improved freeze drying efficiency by ice nucleation proteins with ice morphology modification.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
This study aims to use ice nucleation proteins (INPs) as a novel approach to improve the efficiency of freeze drying process and investigate the related mechanism of ice morphology. Our results show that INPs can significantly improve freeze drying e...

Preservative effect of Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze seed extract in soy sauce and its mutagenicity.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the applicability of green tea seed (GTS) extract as a natural preservative in food. Food preservative ability and mutagenicity studies of GTS extract and identification of antimicrobial compounds from GTS...

Segregation of Tetragenococcus halophilus and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii using W/O/W double emulsion for use in mixed culture fermentation.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Antagonism in mixed culture fermentation can result in undesirable metabolic activity and negatively affect the fermentation process. Water-oil-water (W/O/W) double emulsions (DE) could be utilized in fermentation for segregating multiple species and...

Inhibitory activity of phenolic-rich pistachio green hull extract-enriched pasta on key type 2 diabetes relevant enzymes and glycemic index.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Phenolic compounds as agro-industrial by-products have been associated with health benefits since they exhibit high antioxidant activity and anti-diabetic properties. In this study, polyphenol-rich extract from pistachio green hull (PGH) was evaluate...

Changes in polyphenol composition and bioactivity of the native Chilean white strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis spp. chiloensis f. chiloensis) after in vitro gastrointestinal digestion.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
The Chilean white strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis spp. chiloensis f. chiloensis) is a semi-domesticated strawberry with high polyphenol content and antioxidant activity occurring in southern Chile. The aim of this work was to compare the composition ...
