Zinc oxide nanoparticles enhanced rice yield, quality, and zinc content of edible grain fraction synergistically. [PDF]
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have been widely used in agriculture as a new type of Zn fertilizer, and many studies were conducted to evaluate the effect of ZnO NPs on plant growth. However, there are relatively few studies on the effects of application methods and appropriate dosages of ZnO NPs on rice yield, quality, grain Zn content, and ...

From turf to table: Grass seed to edible grains in the Willamette Valley [PDF]
Western Oregon's Willamette Valley has a rich history of agricultural production and, like an increasing number of regions globally, a growing local food movement. Recent declines in grass seed markets and an increased consumer interest in local grains have raised the possibility of a transition from grass seed land to edible grain production for local

From stale bread and brewers spent grain to a new food source using edible filamentous fungi [PDF]
By-products from the food sector with a high load of organic matter present both a waste-handling problem related to expenses and to the environment, yet also an opportunity. This study aims to increase the value of stale bread and brewers spent grain (BSG) by re-introducing these residues to the food production chain by converting them to new protein ...

Five-year cryopreservation at −80 °C of edible and medicinal basidiomycetes by wheat grain technique
This research has focused on basidiomycete cryopreservation at -80 °C and developed a cryopreservation method based on the use of hard or medium-hard endosperm wheat grains as a mycelial carrier for cryopreservation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mycelial viability of edible and medicinal basidiomycetes, using 13 strains of Agaricus spp ...

Edible Bilayer Films from Zein and Grain Sorghum Wax or Carnauba Wax
Tensile strength, elongation at break (E), water vapor permeability, and Hunter L, a, and b color values of single-layer zein films and bilayer zein/lipid films were determined. Zein films were cast from heated (60 °C) aqueous ethanol solutions and were plasticized with glycerin and polyethylene glycol. Bilayer films were prepared by coating dried zein

Sirtfoods: New Concept Foods, Functions, and Mechanisms
Sirtfood is a new concept food that compounds diets that can target sirtuins (SIRTs). SIRTs are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacylases and ADP-ribosyltransferases (enzymes). SIRTs are mediators of calorie restriction (CR) and their
