Feeding transcends mere nourishment by integrating social and cultural factors. The foods we consume hold significant economic and social relevance within territories and are rich in bioactive compounds that confer healt...

Food texture is increasingly recognized as a determinant of nutritional safety, metabolic regulation, and overall health. However, conventional approaches to texture modification rely primarily on hydrocolloids, mechanic...

Oxidative stress–induced cellular injury is a key mechanism underlying tissue dysfunction, and food-derived phenolic compounds have attracted interest as natural modulators of redox homeostasis. Sensory cells, includin...

Traditional poppy vinegar is a functional fermented food matrix enriched with diverse biomolecules that may contribute to metabolic health. In this study, the effects of thermosonication on the biomolecular profile, anti...

This study aimed to isolate and characterize lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from traditional Lithuanian fermented foods and evaluate their probiotic potential, safety, and ability to produce tryptophan. Around 20 LAB isolate...

Abstract Background The complex relationship between the gut microbiome and immune system development during infancy is considered a key factor in the rising rates of pediatric allergic diseases. Food protein-induced all...

Based on existing literature, this review systematically summarizes the nutritional value, medicinal worth, bioactive components, pharmacological activities with relative mechanisms, as well as the food safety and qualit...

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plays a vital role in the global food system, yet questions about its nutrition, safety, and sustainability continue to spark debate. This review takes a fresh, integrative approach, co...

Abstract Germination is an effective bioprocessing strategy for enhancing the nutritional quality and functional potential of legumes. This study systematically evaluated the effects of controlled germination on the nutr...

Milk and dairy products have long played a central role in human nutrition due to their rich content of essential nutrients and bioactive compounds. The growing interest in functional foods—offering health benefits bey...

In response to societal demands, the food industry constantly seeks innovations for its products. Active food packaging, developed from biopolymers incorporated with Pickering emulsions, is certainly one of these innovat...

While chlorinated volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are often considered dioxin precursors, the formation pathways of dioxins during biogas combustion from food waste anaerobic digestion plants remain poorly understood. ...

Cancer therapy and food preservation both face significant challenges related to stability, targeted delivery, safety, and efficiency of active compounds. Biopolymer-based nanoparticles, particularly those derived from c...

Goji berries (Lycium spp.) are valued for their health-promoting potential. However, their juices often exhibit excessive acidity and unbalanced flavor, particularly after fermentation, which limits consumer acceptance a...

During the skin ageing process, hydration capacity decline significantly, leading to dryness and impaired barrier function. Hydration is crucial for maintaining the integrity and normal physiological functions of the ski...

Abstract The concerns of healthy diet and demand for natural products incite the rising interest for bee products in particular bee pollen (BP). In several studies, BP is mentioned as a noble natural product, highlightin...

Climate stress is intensifying in many dryland regions, altering the balance between ecosystem services (ESs) and ecohydrological functioning. Here, we present an integrated framework to assess these changes, combining 4...

Aim: The aim of this study is to synthesize and characterize the more efficient photocatalyst [zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs)] via the addition of dopant lanthanum (La) and pineapple peel extract. Pineapple peel as a ...

PurposeThis study aimed to investigate the associations between gut metabolites Trimethylamine N-Oxide (TMAO), the novel platelet-derived inflammatory ratio index neutrophil-to-platelet ratio (NPR), and the prognosis of ...

This study aimed to investigate the effect of 2% sodium tripolyphosphate (STP) and various concentrations (0.5%–4%) of sugarcane molasses (S) on structure and techno-functional properties of egg white protein (EWP). Si...

Current study optimizes ultrasonication frequency (20, 30, 40 kHz) and time (10, 20, 30 min) for efficient valorization of soybean meal through nutritional enhancement and utilization in development of plant-based nu...

Capsaicin (CAP), the pungent compound in chili peppers, is well-known for its anti-inflammatory properties, yet its role in autoimmune immunometabolism remains unexplored. In a murine model of Collagen-Induced Arthritis,...

Abstract Hyper-osmotic stress in high-sugar fruits inhibits the fermentation performance of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Besides, there is a prevailing trend of low-sugar diets for health concern. Therefore, it is essenti...
