Peanuts, aflatoxins and undernutrition in children in Sub-Saharan Africa [PDF]

, 2017
Peanuts (Arachis hypogaea) is an important and affordable source of protein in most of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and a popular commodity and raw material for peanut butter, paste and cooking oil. It is a popular ingredient for foods used at the point of

Effect of Traditional Household Processes on Iron, Zinc and Copper Bioaccessibility in Black Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

Foods, 2018
Micronutrient deficiencies are a major public health problem. Beans are an important plant-based source of iron, zinc and copper, but their absorption is reduced in the presence of anti-nutrients such as phytates, polyphenols and tannins.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

A Pilot Study to Validate a Standardized One-Week Salt Estimation Method Evaluating Salt Intake and Its Sources for Family Members in China [PDF]

, 2015
The objective of this study was to develop a new method named the "one-week salt estimation method" that could estimate an individual's salt intake and the sources of salt in the diet, and to evaluate this new method with a 24-h urine ...

Effect of legume fermentation on the reduction of the anti-nutritional factor. Review

Пищевые системы
Legumes are valuable food raw materials due to the content of plant protein, essential amino acids and fiber. However, they contain anti-nutrients such as tannins, phytates, oligosaccharides, oxalates, saponins and protease inhibitors, which upon ...

Antioxidant activity, total phenolics, flavonoids and antinutritional characteristics of germinated foxtail millet (Setaria italica)

Cogent Food & Agriculture, 2015
A central composite rotatable design was applied to analyse the effects of independent variables [soaking time (ST), germination time (Gt) and temperature (GT)] on responses [antioxidant activity (AoxA), total phenolic contents (TPC) and flavonoid ...

Anti-nutrient reduction and nutrient retention capacity of fermentation, germination and combined germination-fermentation in legume processing

Applied Food Research, 2022
Research has proven that the processing of legumes improves nutritional value. However, the extent of anti-nutrient reduction and nutrient retention of combined processing methods compared to single processing methods has not been extensively studied ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Effect of processing methods on nutrient and anti-nutrient composition of grasshopper and termites

CyTA - Journal of Food, 2023
ABSTRACTDifferent processing methods could impact on the nutritional and anti-nutritional composition of edible insects. This study involved the analysis of nutrients and anti-nutrients in fresh and processed grasshopper (Ruspolia differens) and winged termites (Nasutitermes spp) in Kenya.
