Impact of microwave-assisted extraction on roasted coffee carbohydrates, caffeine, chlorogenic acids and coloured compounds.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) allows to quickly achieve soluble compounds from solid matrices due to the promotion of temperatures higher than the solvent (atmospheric) boiling point, once a closed-vessel system is used for operating at high pr...

Discovery of food identity markers by metabolomics and machine learning technology.

Scientific reports
Verification of food authenticity establishes consumer trust in food ingredients and components of processed food. Next to genetic or protein markers, chemicals are unique identifiers of food components. Non-targeted metabolomics is ideally suited to...

Estimation of somatic cell count levels of hard cheeses using physicochemical composition and artificial neural networks.

Journal of dairy science
This study addresses the prediction of the somatic cell counts of the milk used in the production of sheep cheese using artificial neural networks. To achieve this objective, the neural network was designed using 33 parameters of the physicochemical ...

Optimization of the protein extraction method of goat meat using factorial design and response surface methodology.

Food chemistry
Protein extraction from goat meat was carried out based on the combination of response surface methodology and factorial design to optimize the variables: temperature (25-50 °C), extraction time (8-20 min), volume (3-10 mL) and extractor concentratio...

Specific and sensitive ELISA for measurement of IgE-binding variations of milk allergen β-lactoglobulin in processed foods.

Analytica chimica acta
Immunochemical detection of food allergens is usually based on the use of polyclonal or monoclonal immunoglobulins G (IgG) antibodies. However, due to differences in epitopes recognition between IgG and IgE, an epitope modification during food proces...

Cooperation of lactic acid bacteria regulated by the AI-2/LuxS system involve in the biopreservation of refrigerated shrimp.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Litopenaeus vannamei is an extremely perishable food because of rapid microbial growth and chemical degradation after harvesting. Biopreservation is a food preservation technology based on the addition of "positive" bacteria to kill or prevent the gr...

Guava flavored whey-beverage processed by cold plasma: Physical characteristics, thermal behavior and microstructure.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
The present study aimed to compare the physicochemical (pH), physical (rheology parameters and particle size), microstructure (optical microscopy) and thermal properties (differential scanning calorimetry) of guava flavored whey-beverages submitted t...

What kind of coffee do you drink? An investigation on effects of eight different extraction methods.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
The chemical composition of brewed coffee depends on numerous factors: the beans, post-harvest processing and, finally, the extraction method. In recent decades, numerous coffee-based beverages, obtained using different extraction techniques have ent...

Chitosan coated calcium alginate beads for covalent immobilization of acrylamidase: Process parameters and removal of acrylamide from coffee.

Food chemistry
This study reports on removal of acrylamide from roasted coffee by acrylamidase from Cupriavidus oxalaticus ICTDB921. Chitosan coated calcium alginate beads were functionalized with citric acid as nontoxic cross linker and activated by 1-ethyl-3-(3-d...

Sanitation of tomatoes based on a combined approach of washing process and pulsed light in conjunction with selected disinfectants.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
In this study, we evaluated the performance of a large-scale decontamination system based on a washing process in combination with pulsed light (PL) exposure and HO/chlorine. In order to identify optimum processing condition, we first evaluated the e...
