Phenolic Profiles, Antioxidant Properties and Predicted Glycaemic Index of Bread Sweetened With Date Syrup in Comparison With Granulated Sugar

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Date syrup are used as sweetener in bread. Bread with date syrup had superior phenolic composition, better antioxidant properties and carbohydrate hydrolysing enzymes while bread with granulated sugar had higher predicted glyceamic index. The study concluded that date syrup could be the next though‐out ingredient for dual purpose in bread. ABSTRACT The

Glucosidase Inhibition to Study Calnexin-assisted Glycoprotein Folding in Cells

Bio-Protocol, 2019
Calnexin is a chaperone protein that plays a critical role in glycoprotein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The function of calnexin depends on its binding to monoglucosylated oligosaccharides on nascent glycoproteins, whereas the generation of

Fermentation‐Induced Modulation of Polyphenolic Contents and Medicinal Activities in Annona squamosa Seeds

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The study compared the medicinal activities of polyphenols from fermented and unfermented seeds of Annona squamosa. The polyphenols were extracted and subjected to standard analysis. The major phenolic components of the fermented polyphenols and the unfermented polyphenols were found to be 4‐hydroxybenzoic and 4‐hydroxyphenylacetic acid, respectively ...

Strictosidine activation in Apocynaceae: towards a "nuclear time bomb"? [PDF]

, 2010
Background The first two enzymatic steps of monoterpene indole alkaloid (MIA) biosynthetic pathway are catalysed by strictosidine synthase (STR) that condensates tryptamine and secologanin to form strictosidine and by strictosidine β-D-glucosidase (SGD ...

Functional Bread From Bambara Groundnut and Orange Peel Attenuates Hyperglycemia and Oxidative Stress in a High‐Fat Diet/Streptozotocin‐Induced Type 2 Diabetes Rat Model

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
This study evaluated Bambara groundnut–wheat composite bread fortified with orange peel in diabetic rats. Diets significantly lowered blood glucose, inhibited α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase, and boosted antioxidant enzymes compared to controls. Results emphasize BG‐based functional foods' potential to help manage type 2 diabetes through regulation of ...

Infused Tiger Nut and Almond Nut Crunchy Snacks Enhanced the Nutritional Value and Antioxidant Activity in High‐Fat Diet Fed Rat

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Crunches were produced from formulations of almond nuts and tiger nuts (AN–TN) for the plausible management of commodity disease of obese condition. The produced AN–TN crunches showed high consumers acceptability, phenolic, and amylopectin contents. In addition, formulated percentages of AN–TN crunches when fed to high‐fat diet (HFD) fed rats led to ...

Nutraceutical Evaluation of Biscuits Formulated From Acha, Chia, and Soycake Flours on Glycemic Control, Lipid Profile, and Histopathological Effects in High‐Fat Diet/Streptozotocin‐Induced Type 2 Diabetic Rats

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Acha–chia–soycake biscuits improved glucose tolerance, lipid profile, insulin levels, and pancreatic integrity in HFD–STZ diabetic rats. ACSB1 and ACSB13 outperformed acarbose, showing potent antihyperglycemic, hypolipidemic, and pancreatic‐protective effects.
