Encapsulated Proanthocyanidins as Novel Ingredients

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Proanthocyanidins (OPC) are polyphenolic compounds, derivatives of flavan-3-ol flavonoids. They are abundant in grape seeds and skins, and contribute to most of the polyphenols in red wine. Proanthocyanidins from grape seed have been reported to show various health as well as technological properties.

Microencapsulation of bioactive compounds from peanut residues: stability study and application in yogurt

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 11, Page 6472-6484, 30 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Peanut skin, a byproduct of peanut processing, is a rich source of phenolic compounds (520.65 mgGAE (100 g)−1 d.b.) with strong antioxidant capacity, but which remains underutilized. The direct incorporation of phenolic extracts into dairy products is challenging, due to their instability during processing and storage and possible ...

Effect of Biological Denitrification Inhibitor on N₂O Emissions from Paddy Soil and Microbial Mechanisms

Microorganisms
The denitrification process is the main process of the soil nitrogen (N) cycle in paddy fields, which leads to the production of large amounts of nitrous oxide (N2O) and increases N loss in paddy soil.

Gene expression and metabolic variability in fungus‐resistant PIWI (‘Pilzwiderstandsfähig’) grape cultivars

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 10, Page 5841-5850, 15 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Fungus‐resistant PIWI (Pilzwiderstandsfähig) grape cultivars are promising for reducing pesticide inputs in viticulture, but their enological potential is still poorly characterized. We performed a pilot, single‐vintage study integrating berry gene expression and phenolic composition in five Italian red PIWI cultivars (Cabernet ...

Valorization of fruit pits from Prunus laurocerasus and Prunus cerasifera as agro‐food byproducts: Bioactive properties and safety assessment for potential food additive applications

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 10, Page 6002-6014, 15 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Food additives are widely used to extend the shelf life of foods and maintain their quality. In this study, the potential of Prunus laurocerasus and Prunus cerasifera fruit pits (endocarp and seed) as food additives was investigated in terms of cytotoxicity, antigenotoxicity, antioxidant activity, enzymatic anti‐browning, and urease

Dietary Tea Polyphenols Improve Growth Performance, Physiological Health and Economic Efficiency in Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tea polyphenols (TPs) are natural bioactive compounds extensively used in aquaculture diets as a functional supplement because of their antioxidant, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory potential. Four isonitrogenous diets (crude protein: 30%) were designed with incorporating TPs at levels of 0% (control, TPs‐0), 0.025% (TPs‐1), 0.05% (TPs‐2 ...
