Inactivation Strategies of Clostridium perfringens in Foods: Current Challenges and Emerging Interventions

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
Clostridium perfringens forms heat‐resistant spores that complicate food safety. Physical methods (thermal processing, HPP, vacuum cooling, ozone treatments) and chemical interventions (natural antimicrobials, phosphates, nitrate/nitrite, organic acids) reduce vegetative cells and spores, though spore resistance remains a major challenge in food and ...

Formulation of Gluten‐Free Biscuits Based on Tiger Nut, Dana, and Mixture of Avocado and Margarine: Nutritional Composition and Glycemic Index of Optimal Sample

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study aimed to develop a gluten‐free biscuit with a low glycemic index by completely replacing wheat flour with flours from three local plant foods (tiger nut, dana, and avocado). The methodology began with the production of tiger nut and dana flours and avocado paste followed by the mixing plan and obtention of 09 (nine) formulations. The optimal

Transition pathways from vulnerability to viability of small‐scale fisheries in Africa and Asia

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1033-1049, May 2026.
Abstract This perspective paper examines transition pathways that move small‐scale fisheries from vulnerability towards viability. We understand ‘vulnerability to viability transition pathways’ as integrative and one that extends beyond economic concerns to include social, political, cultural and ecological aspects of small‐scale fisheries.
