Pine honey is a unique type of honeydew honey produced exclusively in Eastern
Mediterranean countries like Greece and Turkey. Although the antioxidant and
anti-inflammatory properties of pine honey are well documented, few studies have
investigated so far its antibacterial activity. This study investigates the
antibacterial effects of pine honey against P. aeruginosa PA14 at the molecular
level us... hiện toàn bộ
Current Insights into Monitoring, Bioaccumulation, and Potential Health Effects of Microplastics Present in the Food ChainFoods - Tập 9 Số 1 - Trang 72
L.W.D. van Raamsdonk, Meike van der Zande, Albert A. Koelmans, L.A.P. Hoogenboom, Ruud Peters, M.J. Groot, Ad Peijnenburg, Yannick Weesepoel
Microplastics (MPs) are considered an emerging issue as environmental pollutants
and a potential health threat. This review will focus on recently published data
on concentrations in food, possible effects, and monitoring methods. Some data
are available on concentrations in seafood (fish, bivalves, and shrimps), water,
sugar, salt, and honey, but are lacking for other foods. Bottled water is a

Determination of Phenolic Compounds, Procyanidins, and Antioxidant Activity in Processed Coffea arabica L. LeavesFoods - Tập 8 Số 9 - Trang 389
Samuchaya Ngamsuk, Tzou‐Chi Huang, Jue‐Liang Hsu
The effects of dry processing and maturity on antioxidant activity, total
phenolic content, total procyanidins, and identity of phenolic compounds in
coffee leaves were evaluated. Fresh coffee leaves were tray-dried at 40 °C for 8
h before total phenolic content, total procyanidins, and antioxidant activity
were analyzed. The drying process significantly (p < 0.05) improved the release
of total ph... hiện toàn bộ

Epiphytic microbial communities significantly impact the health and quality of
grape berries. This study utilized high-performance liquid chromatography and
high-throughput sequencing to explore the epiphytic microbial diversity and
physicochemical indicators in nine different wine grape varieties. In total,
1,056,651 high-quality bacterial 16S rDNA sequences and 1,101,314 fungal ITS
reads were us... hiện toàn bộ
Nutritional Profiling and Preliminary Bioactivity Screening of Five Micro-Algae Strains Cultivated in Northwest EuropeFoods - Tập 10 Số 7 - Trang 1516
Joran Verspreet, Lise Soetemans, Caoimhe Gargan, María Hayes, Leen Bastiaens
This study aimed to map the nutritional profile and bioactivities of five
microalgae that can be grown in Northwest Europe or areas with similar
cultivation conditions. Next to the biochemical composition, the in vitro
digestibility of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids was studied for
Chlamydomonas nivalis, Porphyridium purpureum, Chlorella vulgaris,
Nannochloropsis gaditana, and Scenedesmus spe... hiện toàn bộ
Proteomics-Based Methodologies for the Detection and Quantification of Seafood AllergensFoods - Tập 9 Số 8 - Trang 1134
Mónica Carrera, Manuel Pazos, Marı́a Gasset
Seafood is considered one of the main food allergen sources by the European Food
Safety Authority (EFSA). It comprises several distinct groups of edible aquatic
animals, including fish and shellfish, such as crustacean and mollusks.
Recently, the EFSA recognized the high risk of food allergy over the world and
established the necessity of developing new methodologies for its control.
Consequently,... hiện toàn bộ
Amylose-Lipid Complex as a Fat Replacement in the Preparation of Low-Fat White Pan BreadFoods - Tập 9 Số 2 - Trang 194
Hee-Seon Lee, Kyung-Heon Kim, Sunghoon Park, Sung-Won Hur, Joong‐Hyuck Auh
Amylose-lipid complex (ALC) was prepared with corn starch and stearic acid and
used as a shortening replacement in white pan bread preparation. ALCs were
prepared using various concentrations of stearic acid to corn starch (1%, 3%,
5%, and 7%) under different temperatures (55, 65, and 75 °C) and for different
durations of time (30, 60, and 120 min); then, their complexing properties were
assessed ... hiện toàn bộ
Comparative Study of Physicochemical Properties and Starch Granule Structure in Seven Ginkgo Kernel FloursFoods - Tập 10 Số 8 - Trang 1721

Ginkgo biloba L. is an important economic tree species in China, and its kernels
have been used as a popular food in Asian countries. Herein, the morphology,
basic chemical components, starch granule structures, and physicochemical
properties of kernel flours from seven ginkgo cultivars were investigated, and
their relationships were analyzed. The kernels were oval or spherical in shape,
