Dietary fiber (OF) was extracted from sweet potato residues after starch isolation of 10 varieties using a sieving method. The proximate composition of sweet potato residues, chemical composition, monosaccharide composit...
This study investigated the impact of purchase location on the stable isotope ratios of beverages by measuring the delta H-2 and delta O-18 values of bottled water, soda, beer, and tap water collected across the contiguo...
In this study, the carbohydrate composition of high-fructose corn syrups (HFCS) from commercial manufacturers as well as from beekeepers was characterized by GC-MS. Sucrose syrups (SS) were also included in this work for...
Soybean and maize are extensively used in animal feed, primarily in poultry, swine, and cattle diets. Soybean meal can affect pig performance in the first few weeks following weaning and elicit specific antibodies in wea...
Antiradical activity and total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of modern and old varieties of durum (9 varieties) and soft (17 varieties) wheat grains, sampled over two years (summer 2007 and 2008) in the same site, we...
Buckwheat (Fagropyrum esculentum Moench.), cabbage (Brassica oleracea L), and conventional and glyphosate-resistant varieties of canola (Brassica napus L.) were used to study the bases of saflufenacil and glyphosate inte...
Laminates of compression-molded glycerol-plasticized wheat gluten (WG) films surrounded and supported by poly(lactic acid) (PLA) films have been produced and characterized. The objective was to obtain a fully renewable h...
To investigate the varietal aroma compound composition of monovarietal grape marc distillates made from six different varieties ( Vitis vinifera L.) in the region of Istria (Croatia), 30 samples were subjected to GC/MS a...
Solar radiation is a key environmental signal in regulation of plant secondary metabolism. Since metabolic responses to light and ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure are known to depend on the ratio of spectral ranges (e...
Screening for aroma-active compounds in an aroma distillate obtained from freshly pan-roasted sesame seeds by aroma extract dilution analysis revealed 32 odorants in the FD factor range of 2-2048, 29 of which could be id...
Curcumin (CUR), a natural polyphenol isolated from tumeric (Curcuma longa), has been documented to possess antioxidant and anticancer activities. Unfortunately, the compound has poor aqueous solubility, which results in ...
High-amylose starch is a source of resistant starch (RS) which has a great benefit on human health. A transgenic rice line (TRS) enriched amylose and AS had been developed by antisense RNA inhibition of starch branching ...
Although vodka is a reasonably pure mixture of alcohol and water, beverage drinks typically show differences in appeal among brands. The question immediately arises as to the molecular basis, if any, of vodka taste perce...
This study supplied a simple extraction method for intact soybean oil body (ISOB) and examined the heating effect on ISOB. ISOB, which just contained its intrinsic protein (oleosin), could be obtained by pH 11 extraction...
Changes in the insoluble protein fraction of bovine longissimus thoracis muscle from eight Norwegian Red (NRF) dual-purpose young bulls during the first 48 h postmortem were investigated by two-dimensional gel electropho...
In this study, novel extracellular thermozymes were produced by the thermophilic fungus Talaromyces emersonii (IMI 392299) on low-cost carbon inducers. This paper reports the cocktail characterization, substrate hydrolys...
