From freshness to preservation: insights into processing and storage impacts on purple passion fruit volatilome

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2139-2153, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Purple passion fruit is highly appreciated for its distinctive sweet flavour, low acidity, and aromatic profile, making it a desirable choice for fresh consumption and juice production. To ensure microbiological safety and extend shelf life, juice products typically undergo thermal pasteurization, which can alter their ...

Metagenomic and biogenic amine changes in cassava fermentation for tucupi production using Pediococcus acidilactici starter culture

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2424-2436, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND The use of starter cultures is essential for producing fermented foods with desirable standardized characteristics and for preventing pathogens. Pediococcus acidilactici, isolated from cocoa fermentation, was used in the production of tucupi, a widely appreciated sauce made from the juice of cassava root (manipueira) in the ...

Serum Inflammatory Markers and Dietary Inflammatory Index in Obese Individuals With Fatty Liver Disease: A Case–Control Study

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 2, March 2026.
Our findings underscore the role of inflammation in the pathophysiology of fatty liver disease among obese individuals. Elevated CRP levels highlight potential targets for intervention. ABSTRACT Background Fatty liver disease is common among obese individuals and is closely linked to chronic low‐grade inflammation.

Bioactive Phytochemical Compounds in Medicago sativa L. (Alfalfa): A Systematic Review of Biological Properties and Therapeutic Relevance in Nutraceutical and Functional Food Implications

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Medicago sativa L. (alfalfa) harbors a remarkably diverse reservoir of bioactive secondary metabolites. Flavonoids, isoflavones, and triterpenoid saponins dominate its bioactivity landscape, driving potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, antimicrobial, estrogenic, hypolipidemic, and cytotoxic actions through redox modulation, membrane ...
