Biodegradable Coatings with Essential Oils for Combating Papaya Anthracnose: State of the Art and Perspectives

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Papaya (Carica papaya L.) production and marketability are strongly constrained by postharvest diseases, with anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum spp. representing the most significant threat. Traditional control relies on synthetic fungicides, which, although effective, face challenges such as the development of pathogen resistance ...

The Effect of Cold‐Temperature Storage on Lipid Stability, Physicochemical Characteristics and Texture Profiles of Plant‐Based Meat Analogues

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
PBMA products were studied for their lipid stability, texture profiles and physicochemical properties under recommended refrigerated storage conditions. Lipid tests showed no indicators of lipid oxidation in the PBMA products after refrigerated storage; however, significant changes were observed in their textural and physicochemical properties ...

Chemical Composition, Amino Acids, Phenolic Profiles and Bioavailability of Minerals in Livingstone Potato (Plectranthus esculentus) as Affected by Different Processing Techniques

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Boiling retained the nutrients and polyphenol compounds in Plectranthus esculentus tubers better than frying or roasting. A bioavailability study showed that the phytates and oxalates in the tuber may not affect the bioavailabilities of calcium, zinc, or iron in Plectranthus esculentus tubers when eaten.

Fluorescent light and sunlight radiations may improve rice bran oil colour and influence its oxidative stability and chemical composition

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The influence of pretreatment of rice bran oil using fluorescent and sunlight radiations on its colour and their influence on its chemical composition and oxidative stability were assessed. Rice bran oil was stored under sunlight, fluorescent light and ambient conditions for 60 days. Oil samples were collected every 15 days for analysis.
