Bioavailability through lactic fermentation in millet for combating hidden hunger

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Millets are nutrient‐rich grains with considerable potential to combat hidden hunger, but the presence of anti‐nutritional factors, can restrict mineral bioavailability. Processing strategies including soaking, germination, cooking, and lactic acid fermentation can reduce the anti‐nutritional factors.

Enhancement of technofunctional properties of chickpea flour through composite blending with teff and proso millet

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The increasing demand for nutritionally rich and gluten‐free foods has intensified research interest in underutilized cereals and legumes as an alternative to conventional wheat‐based flours. The study aims to investigate the potential of developing composite flours from proso millet (Panicum miliaceum), teff (Eragrostis tef), and chickpea ...

Effect of particle size and microbial phytase on phytate degradation in incubated maize and soybean meal

Animal, 2014
The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of screen size (1, 2 and 3 mm) and microbial phytase (0 and 1000 FTU/kg as-fed) on phytate degradation in maize (100% maize), soybean meal (100% SBM) and maize–SBM (75% maize and 25% SBM) incubated in

Dephosphorylation of Phytate by Using the Aspergillus niger Phytase with a High Affinity for Phytate [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1999
ABSTRACT A phytase (EC 3.1.3.8 ) with a high affinity for phytic acid was found in Aspergillus niger SK-57 and purified to homogeneity in four steps by using ion-exchange chromatography (two types), gel filtration, and chromatofocusing.

Interactions of delivery systems modulating the digestibility of plant‐based proteins

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant‐based proteins are gaining interest as sustainable alternatives to animal‐derived proteins, but their digestibility is often lower and strongly influenced by protein structure, processing history, and food‐matrix interactions. This review critically examines how emulsions, hydrogels, micro‐ and nanoparticles, micelles, liposomes ...

Phytate Content in Cereals Impacted by Cropping System and Harvest Year

Foods
Phytate is a substance that has been considered mainly as an antinutrient, but at the same time it is a significant source of phosphorus and has several useful health-related properties that could be exploited.

Pumpkin and chia seeds as functional foods and their application in different food products: A review

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Functional foods have gained increasing attention for their capacity to promote health and reduce chronic‐disease risk beyond basic nutrition. Among plant‐based functional ingredients, pumpkin (Cucurbita spp.) and chia (Salvia hispanica L.) seeds are nutrient‐dense sources of proteins, unsaturated fatty acids, dietary fiber, tocopherols ...

Phosphorus Partitioning of Soybean Lines Containing Different Mutant Alleles of Two Soybean Seed-Specific Adenosine Triphosphate-Binding Cassette Phytic Acid Transporter Paralogs

The Plant Genome, 2013
Seed phytate is a repository of P and minerals in soybean [ (L.) Merr.] seeds that limits P and mineral bioavailability for monogastric animals (e.g., humans, swine [], and poultry [especially chicken, ]) due to insufficient digestive tract phytase ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Sourdough fermentation as a modulator of nutritional quality in cereal‐based baked products

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Sourdough fermentation, an ancient food bioprocessing technology, has attracted renewed attention for its positive impact on the nutritional profile and sensory attributes of leavened baked products. This process relies on the symbiotic activity between lactic acid bacteria and yeasts, which leads to acidification, proteolysis, enzyme ...
