Edible films containing natural antimicrobials, like natamycin and nisin, constitute an emerging technology that provides an additional stress factor for food preservation. However, it has been observed that edible films...

Purpose: Hypothyroidism has been shown to induce immunosuppression and both the thyroid status and immunity are affected by zinc deficiency. However, the impact of hypothyroidism on zinc metabolism and its possible relat...

Green tea extracts are being widely used in food products due to their health-promoting properties. Polyphenols can interact with food proteins leading to the formation of soluble or insoluble complexes; therefore they c...

The search for substitutes for synthetic polymers in food packaging has received significant attention from both researchers and the industrial sector. A promising approach involves utilizing edible films based on tapioc...

Cheese surfaces can be colonized by undesirable microorganisms during the different processing stages, with ripening being the most affected. Consumers demand have increased the interest in using natural antimicrobials s...

Abstract Salinity stress severely limits crop productivity, particularly in maize, necessitating innovative pre-sowing treatments that can enhance seed resilience and performance. This study evaluates the effects of pre-...

Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is a β-galactoside-binding lectin that plays an important role in inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. Cuprizone (CPZ)-induced demyelination is characterized by the loss of mature oligodendroc...
