Punicalagin‐enriched edible coatings from revalorized pomegranate peels for quality enhancement of fresh‐cut celery

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 13, Page 8226-8236, October 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Pomegranate peel is a rich source of phenolics, particularly punicalagin, but its valorization for fresh produce preservation requires stabilization. This study aimed to develop and evaluate freeze‐dried encapsulates of pomegranate peel extracts as ingredients in edible coatings for fresh‐cut celery. Pomegranate peels were extracted

Investigating Dietary microRNA Stability and Function Using a Transgenic Milk Model With Unique microRNA Sequences

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
Upon ingestion, milk extracellular vesicles (EVs) carrying bioactive cargo such as microRNAs may survive digestion and remain bioactive. Here, milk from wild‐type and transgenic cows expressing unique microRNAs was used to isolate and characterize four EV populations.

Human health risk assessment of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) from environmental matrices [PDF]

In assessing human health risk of potentially toxic elements (PTEs), it is not the concentration of PTEs in the environmental matrices that is of greatest concern but the fraction that is absorbed into the body via the exposure pathways.

Arsenic bioaccessibility in gold mine tailings of Delita, Cuba

, 2013
A bioaccessibility test was carried out in four tailings collected at a former mining area in Delita, Cuba. A previous risk assessment study identified arsenic (As) as the main critical contaminant in this area and showed that the tailings had high As ...

Bioaccessibility of Arsenic and Lead in Polluted Soils Using Three In-vitro Gastrointestinal Simulation Models [PDF]

, 2019
In human health risk assessment (HHRA), oral ingestion of soil can be a major route of exposure to many immobile soil contaminants. Development and validation of in vitro assays is currently being undertaken to avoid overestimation of pollutants absorbed

The Antidiabetic Potential of Alpha‐Mangostin: A Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 262-284, September 2026.
Alpha‐mangostin is a compound from the pericarp of Garcinia mangostana. The antidiabetic effects of alpha‐mangostin include enhancing insulin secretion, improving glucose uptake through GLUT receptor upregulation, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, promoting wound healing, reducing HbA1C, reducing HOMA‐IR index, and decreased mRNA expressions ...

Potential of Bee Pollen as a Nutraceutical And/Or Functional Ingredient for Metabolic Syndrome Management: In Vitro Antioxidant, Anti‐Inflammatory, and Digestive Enzyme Inhibitory Activities

Food Chemistry International, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 465-476, September 2026.
Bee pollen samples from China and Spain exhibited in vitro antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and digestive enzyme inhibitory activities due to their composition, suggesting their potential as a nutraceutical or functional ingredient to help counteract oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and metabolic disorders.

Bioavailability of potentially toxic metals and human health risk assessment: Bibliometric analysis and systematic review

Scientific African
The assumption of hundred percent bioavailability and total concentration of potentially toxic metals for ingestion exposure assessment and risk characterization leads to overestimation and uncertainty in risk characterization.

Whole Wheat Flour Components Intervention Against Lead Toxicity: Impacts on Metal Bioavailability and Protection of the Intestinal Epithelial Barrier

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Consumption of whole wheat flour promotes lead excretion, yet the functional components reducing lead bioavailability and their protective mechanisms remain unclear. To identify these components and to validate whether their mechanism is related to protection of the intestinal barrier, this study established an in vitro model combining ...

Bioaccessibility of metals in soils in selected parks in Montreal

, 2014
The main focus of this study was to determine the concentrations and bioaccessibility of metals in Montreal city parks. Surface soil samples were collected from nine parks located across Montreal city and analyzed for total metals, pH, carbon content and
