Arabinoxylan‐enriched fraction from durum wheat meal modulates structure, texture, nutritional and sensory properties of extruded snacks

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Arabinoxylans (AX), abundant in wheat bran, represent a valuable yet underutilized fraction of cereal milling by‐products. In this study, an AX‐enriched fraction obtained from durum wheat meal (DWM), produced from defatted durum wheat germ and debranning fractions, was incorporated at increasing levels (0–25%) into pea starch ...

Characterization of Dental Composite Resin with Additional TiO2 Nanoparticle Filler

Macromolecular Symposia, EarlyView.
Silanized SiO2‐based dental composite resins with and without TiO2 nanoparticle addition were fabricated using a Bis‐GMA/TEGDMA resin matrix and photopolymerized under 468‐470 nm UV light. The resulting composites, composite I (55% SiO2) and composite II (50% SiO2 + 5% TiO2), were characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform ...

Microbiological safety in the reuse of materials in home enteral nutrition: A quantitative in vitro experimental study

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In home enteral nutrition (HEN), the reuse of packaging and administration materials beyond the recommended period, combined with inadequate hygiene practice, increase the risk of microbiological contamination. This study assessed the risk through a simulation that reproduced real‐world usage conditions and hygiene practices ...
