Antioxidants have been reported to have anti-inflammatory effects, but there is a lack of research comparing food to supplement antioxidant sources. The aim of this study was to determine if increases in intake of foods naturally rich in antioxidants...
Aqueous extracts of orange peel and pulp with high total phenolic contents (TPC) (25.94 and 11.38 mg GAE/g extracts, respectively) were employed in the formulation of functional carrot juice and functional juices were treated using thermosonication p...
This investigation aimed to develop a method to predict the total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity, TSS/titratable acidity, vitamin C, anthocyanin, and total carotenoids contents using surface color values (L*, Hue and chroma), single fruit w...
Estimation of fruit quality parameters are usually based on destructive techniques which are tedious, costly and unreliable when dealing with huge amounts of fruits. Alternatively, non-destructive techniques such as image processing and spectral refl...
Solvatochromism occurs in both homogeneous solvents and more complex biological environments, such as proteins. While in both cases the solvatochromic effects report on the surroundings of the chromophore, their interpretation in proteins becomes mor...
Lycopene-rich guava (Psidium guajava L.) exhibits significant economic potential as a functional food ingredient, making it highly valuable for the pharmaceutical and agro-food industries. However, there is a need to enhance the extraction methods of...
Lycopene is a carotenoid highly valuable to the food, pharmaceutical, dye, and cosmetic industries, present in ripe tomatoes and other fruits with a distinctive red color. The main source of lycopene is tomato crops. This bioactive component can be s...

Using deep learning and neural networks enables us to greatly speed-up quantitative studies and provide a useful tool for analyzing microscopic images. Studies conducted on selected algae and sp. confirm the feasibility of using the deep learning n...
Carotenoids are vital pigments influencing both the coloration and health of aquatic organisms, particularly in species such as the Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai). In this study, we identified the major carotenoids in abalone foot muscle us...
BACKGROUND: Natural colorants produced by the cyanobacterium include carotenoids, chlorophyll a and phycocyanin. The current study used the Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 to examine how abiotic stress conditions, such as low temperature as well as high l...
