Short‐Term Effects of Golden Rice Cookies Enriched With Piper crocatum Extract on Lipid Profiles in Adults With Diabetes: A Quasi‐Experimental Study

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) commonly coexists with dyslipidemia and elevated cardiovascular risk. Food‐based interventions containing antioxidants and polyphenols may support lipid metabolism. This study evaluated the short‐term effects of Golden Rice cookies enriched with active Piper crocatum extract on lipid profiles in adults with DM.

Sequential Pressurized Liquid Extraction of Food Matrices: Fractionation, Selectivity, and Scale‐Up

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Sequential pressurized liquid extraction separates food‐processing side streams into chemically distinct fractions by changing solvent polarity and operating conditions across stages. Lipophilic and phenolic compounds are recovered selectively, while co‐extraction is reduced.

Perspectives in biomedicine: Superfoods and antioxidant power classification

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The market value of natural food antioxidants will double to 8 billion USD by 2033, driven by a global consumer demand for ‘clean label’ products and proactive wellness solutions. However, the industrial application and health labelling (commercial brands) of these compounds remain severely constrained by inconsistent analytical methods.

Inconsistent Transcriptomic Responses to Hexabromocyclododecane in Japanese Quail: A Comparative Analysis of Results From Four Different Study Designs

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Optimising the Eco‐Friendly Extraction of Carotenoids From Gac Fruit: A Sustainable Solution for Natural Red Food Colourants

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Gac fruit's high carotenoid content, especially in the aril, makes it an excellent natural red pigment source for food applications, offering a safer alternative to synthetic dyes. Ethanol extraction achieved the highest overall pigment recovery (89.53%), whereas ethyl lactate extraction yielded the highest levels of total carotenoids, β‐carotene ...

Structural, physicochemical, and techno‐functional properties of ultrasound‐treated chickpea starch

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the effects of ultrasonication duration (10, 20, 30, and 40 min) on the physicochemical, functional, structural, thermal, and rheological properties of chickpea starch. Ultrasonication significantly enhanced water absorption capacity (WAC) and oil absorption capacity (OAC), with maximum values observed for U40 (2.13 g/g
