Comparative Valorization of Diverse Food Waste Streams Into Functional ZnO Nanoparticles for Postharvest Pathogen Control

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 31, 17 August 2026.
Due to varying amounts of phytochemical constituents, diverse food waste have shown to differentially mediate the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles with unique physicochemical properties and antimicrobial performance. In this study, raspberry pomace (RP) amongst other waste produces well‐dispersed nanoparticles with superior overall activity against food ...

Study on the effect of ascorbic acid on the biosynthesis of pigment and citrinin in red yeast rice based on comparative transcriptomics

Frontiers in Microbiology
Pigment is one of the most important metabolites in red yeast rice. However, citrinin may accumulate and cause quality security issues. In the present study, the effect of ascorbic acid (EAA) on the pigment and citrinin was studied, and the metabolic ...

Nutritional Characterization of Selected South African Indigenous Seed Flours and Their Impact on Bread Baking Performance

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Diets based predominantly on refined cereal staples are associated with inadequate intake of high‐quality protein and essential micronutrients. This study evaluated five underutilized South African indigenous seed flours, Lowveld chestnut (Sterculia murex), marula (Sclerocarya birrea), forest mahogany (Trichilia dregeana), Natal mahogany ...

Polarography of Citrinin

Journal of the agricultural chemical society of Japan, 1955
(1) CitrininはpH5.3以下の酸性側に於いて一段の還元波をしめし, pHの増大に伴つてその半波電位は陰電位に移動する.その限界電流はpH1～3の範囲で一定であり, pH3～5に於いて漸減する. (2) 限界電流に対する水銀溜の高さの影響を検討覧することによつて, 0.2NHCl中での限界電流は拡散律則であるが, pH4.2での限界電流には幾分kinetic currentが関与していることがわかつた. (3) 限界電流は電解液中のプルコール含量により著しく影響され,この現象はアルコール濃度の粘度に及ほす影響によつて説明できた. (4) ILKOVI〓式より計算すると, citrininの電極反応に与る電子数は1である.

Co‐Detoxification of Multiple Mycotoxins: Microbial and Enzymatic Biodegradation Processes

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
The presence of mycotoxins poses a threat to food safety. This article reviews microbial/enzymatic detoxification technologies and the main degradation pathways of key mycotoxins. We propose to overcome current bottlenecks through enzyme engineering and synthetic biology, providing a roadmap for sustainable and scalable solutions.

Mechanism of Antifungal Action of Citrinin

Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1987
The mycotoxin citrinin had antifungal activity under acidic conditions. At the minimum inhibitory concentration, it completely inhibited cellular respiration and partially inhibited the incorporation of radioactive precursors into macromolecules in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It had no effect on cell permeability.

Food Safety and Nutritional Aspects of Plant‐Based Dairy and Meat Alternatives: A Review

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Plant‐based dairy and meat alternatives (PBDA and PBMA) offer sustainability benefits but also introduce chemical and microbiological hazards to the diet. Key concerns include emerging mycotoxins, heavy metals, process contaminants, and heat‐resistant spore‐forming bacteria.
