Chitosan‐Based pH‐Responsive Films and Edible Coatings to Enhance Fruit Shelf‐Life: Impact of Plant Biomolecules and Composition

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Chitosan based coatings/films forming solution with the use ofplant extracts and parameters for fruit shelf life analysis. ABSTRACT Fresh fruits are a natural source of various minerals and vitamins, which are essential for human health. However, a rapid rate of respiration, water loss and fast ripening ability result in shorter shelf life and ...

On the simulation of enzymatic digest patterns: the fragmentation of oligomeric and polymeric galacturonides by endo-polygalacturonase II

open access: yes, 2006
A simulation methodology for predicting the time-course of enzymatic digestions is described. The model is based solely on the enzyme's subsite architecture and concomitant binding energies.

Aloe vera Tannin Ameliorates Fructose‐Induced Dyslipidaemia and Oxidative Stress in Wistar Rats

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Aloe vera tannin (AVT) significantly enhances liver reduced glutathione and superoxide dismutase activities in rats. Fructose consumption creates dyslipidaemia in rats by significantly increasing serum cholesterol and LDL levels. AVT prevented fructose‐induced dyslipidaemia in rats by controlling the lipid profile. AVT did not affect liver, hippocampus

Structural studies of a fucogalactoxyloglucan from pinus radiata primary cell walls : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
1. The changes in carbohydrate composition of elongating Pinus radiata primary cell walls were investigated. In the hemicellulose B extracts, a large increase in the percentage of non-starch, non-cellulosic, glucose was found to occur on cessation of ...

Protocol for the Preparation of Polyphenols‐Polysaccharide Nanoparticles

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyphenols, natural compounds abundantly distributed in plants, possess potent antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory activities and hold promising potential in cardiovascular protection and the management of metabolic disorders. Nevertheless, their intrinsic instability and low bioavailability severely constrain their practical and large‐scale ...

Edible Antifungal Coatings Based on Litchi Chinensis Seed Starch Enriched With Pericarp Procyanidins for the Postharvest Preservation of Strawberries

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Lychee starch coatings enriched with procyanidins showed strong antifungal activity and effectively preserved strawberry quality postharvest, reducing weight loss, decay, and senescence. This highlights their potential as a sustainable natural alternative for shelf‐life extension and fungal control in fresh produce.
