Citrus depressa peel extract and its polymethoxyflavones mitigate acetaminophen‐induced chronic liver injury in mice through antioxidant activation, epigenetic regulation, and gut microbiota modulation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Preventing chronic liver damage is essential for maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of serious liver diseases. Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose can lead to severe liver damage due to oxidative stress, and citrus fruits are rich in bioactive compounds that may have health benefits.

Report of the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Consumer Affairs, Food Safety and Nutrition (AECOSAN) on the safe use of various aqueous solutions of hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid and peracetic acid as processing aids for the bacterial disinfection of citrus fruit and pepper washing water at processing plants

, 2018
The company Peroxychem Spain S.L.U. has requested an assessment of the safe use of three aqueous solutions of hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid and peracetic acid as processing aids. 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP) is included as a stabiliser. The use proposed for the processing aids is the bacterial disinfection of water used for washing

Punicalagin‐enriched edible coatings from revalorized pomegranate peels for quality enhancement of fresh‐cut celery

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Pomegranate peel is a rich source of phenolics, particularly punicalagin, but its valorization for fresh produce preservation requires stabilization. This study aimed to develop and evaluate freeze‐dried encapsulates of pomegranate peel extracts as ingredients in edible coatings for fresh‐cut celery. Pomegranate peels were extracted

Report of the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Consumer Affairs, Food Safety and Nutrition (AECOSAN) in relation to the use of an antimicrobial aqueous solution containing hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid and peroxyacetic acid (23/17/15) as a processing aid on citrus fruits and tomatoes, and their wash water

, 2016
The company Productos Citrosol S.A. has requested a safety assessment on the use of an aqueous solution containing hydrogen peroxide (23 %), acetic acid (17 %) and peracetic acid (15 %) as a processing aid. As stabilisers, 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP) (<0.2 %) and dipicolinic acid (DPA) (≤0.01 %) are included in the solution. The

Metabolomics‐based study of the preservation mechanism of a tea saponin–cinnamaldehyde nanoemulsion applied to Xinyu tangerines

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The Xinyu tangerine is a geographical indication agricultural product from Jiangxi province, China. During postharvest storage, nutrient loss and pathogen‐induced decay reduce fruit quality. The selection of appropriate preservatives is therefore important for maintaining postharvest quality.

Impact of climate‐induced compositional shifts of ethanol and acidity on aroma release and perception in red wine: a case study on γ‐nonalactone and massoia lactone

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change‐driven warming is increasing wine ethanol, promoting an atypical convergence between pH and titratable acidity (TA), and favouring the accumulation of specific wine volatiles: γ‐nonalactone (γ‐C9) and massoia lactone (MLac).
