Cellular Stress, Inflammation and Barrier Damage in Gut Epithelial Cells Caused by Aspartame
This study shows that aspartame, at dietary‐relevant doses, induces cytotoxicity, cellular distress associated with endoplasmic reticulum stress, oxidative stress, DNA replication and repair mechanism disturbance culminating in epithelial barrier damage.

Desorption Isotherms and Isosteric Heats of Fermented Cocoa Beans (Theobroma cocoa)
<p>Water desorption isotherms of fermented cocoa beans from Ivory Coast were determined using the gravimetric static method of saturated salts solutions at 30 °C, 40 °C and 60 °C, and isosteric heats of desorption were calculated from Clausius-Clapeyron equation. The experimental data were fitted to several isotherm equations.

LIGNIN CONTENT IN FERMENTATION OF COCOA POD (THEOBROMA COCOA) USED PLEUROTUS OSTREATUS
The study were aimed to determine the lignin degradation in fermentation of cocoa pod with Pleurotus ostreatus. The research methods was using three treatments and four replications. T0 = fermentation of cocoa pod in 10 days, T1 = fermentation of cocoa pod in 15 days, and T2 = fermentation of cocoa pod in 20 days.
