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

Food 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.

Natural extracts of soursop flowers, aged green tea leaves, and ginger rhizomes mitigate thermo‐oxidative degradation of palm olein during plantain chip deep‐frying

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Addition of old green tea leaves, soursop flowers and ginger root extract at concentrations 1000, 1400, and 1800 ppm in palm olein significantly extend its shelf‐life during frying of plantain chips. These plants' extracts are potential alternative to the use of synthetic antioxidants in preserving oil quality. Abstract This work was designed to assess

Effect of Storage Temperature and Materials on Protein Quality and Functional Properties of Soybeans

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Hermetic PICS bags combined with cool storage (15°C) effectively preserved soybean protein quality and functional properties ([protein solubility, emulsifying capacity, and oil absorption capacity] of soybean protein isolates) during storage. Polypropylene bags and 25°C accelerated protein deterioration lead to significant nutritional losses.

The Non‐Professional Virtues of the Hospice Volunteer

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Volunteers have long played a significant role in hospice care. Much of the care volunteers provide consists of weekly hour‐long in‐home visits. Home‐visiting hospice volunteers are not professionals, nor are they strangers or intimates. Hospice volunteers will not typically face moral dilemmas, nor be called upon to make dramatic decisions ...
