Aphicidal Potential and Metabolomic Profiling of Floriculture Leaf Waste Extracts Against Aphis craccivora Koch Under Laboratory Conditions

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.
We utilized the leaf wastes of floriculture crops, namely Tagetes patula, Chrysanthemum grandiflorum, and Alstroemeria hybrida to determine their insecticidal potential against nymphs and adults of Aphis craccivora. Targeted and nontargeted metabolomics of extracts showed the presence of phenols and flavonoids, which corroborates the insecticidal ...

Development of Gluten‐Free Biscuits From Rice Flour‐Pineapple Stem Starch Blends: Physicochemical Properties, In Vitro Starch Digestibility, Estimated Glycemic Index, Sensory Evaluation, and Storage Stability

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Pineapple stem starch (PSS) was incorporated into gluten‐free rice biscuits at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% substitution levels to enhance nutritional value by increasing resistant starch (RS) content and reducing estimated glycemic index (eGI). The 75% PSS formulation was identified as optimal, exhibiting the highest liking scores and a medium eGI (60 ...

Structural Characterization and In Vitro α‐Amylase Inhibitory and Bile Acid‐Binding Properties of a Glucan Isolated From Fermented Cowpea Natto

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) seeds were fermented with Bacillus subtilis natto, freeze‐dried, milled, and subjected to hot‐water extraction, protein removal, alcohol precipitation, and lyophilization to obtain the crude glucan fraction (JD‐F). JD‐F was further purified by DEAE‐Sepharose Fast Flow anion‐exchange chromatography and size‐exclusion ...
