Acute and two-week effects of neotame, stevia rebaudioside M and sucrose-sweetened biscuits on postprandial appetite and endocrine response in adults with overweight/obesity—a randomised crossover trial from the SWEET consortiumResearch in context [PDF]
Summary: Background: Sweeteners and sweetness enhancers (S&SE) are used to replace energy yielding sugars and maintain sweet taste in a wide range of products, but controversy exists about their effects on appetite and endocrine responses in reduced or ...

Consumer-Based Sensory Characterization of Steviol Glycosides (Rebaudioside A, D, and M) [PDF]
Rebaudioside (Reb) D and M are the recent focus of the food industry to address the bitter taste challenge of Reb A, which is the most commonly used steviol glycoside in natural sweetener stevia. This study evaluated the sensory characteristics of Reb A,

A New Diterpene Glycoside: 15α-Hydroxy-Rebaudioside M Isolated from [PDF]
In a continued search for novel diterpenoid glycosides, we recently isolated and characterized a Rebaudioside M derivative with a hydroxyl group at position 15 in the central diterpene core from an extract of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni. Here we report the

A Near Telomere-To-Telomere Genome Assembly of Coffea arabica (Mundo Novo) Provides Insights Into Its Secondary Metabolism. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica) dominates global coffee production, accounting for over 60% of the world's coffee trade. The Mundo Novo cultivar, predominantly grown in Yunnan, China, represents a significant germplasm resource. However, the absence of a high‐quality reference genome has hindered comprehensive genetic research and in‐depth ...

Raman Spectroscopic Analysis of Steviol Glycosides: Spectral Database and Quality Control Algorithms [PDF]
Besides all sharing an extraordinary high (i.e., up to ~450 times) sweetening power as compared to sucrose and while presenting strong similarities in their molecular structures, molecules belonging to the family of diterpene glycosides (i.e., the ...

Enhanced Production of Rebaudioside D and Rebaudioside M through V155T Substitution in the Glycosyltransferase UGT91D2 from Stevia rebaudiana. [PDF]
Steviol glycosides (SGs) are noncaloric natural sweeteners found in the leaves of stevia (Stevia rebaudiana). These diterpene glycosides are biosynthesized by attaching varying numbers of monosaccharides, primarily glucose, to steviol aglycone. Rebaudioside (Reb) D and Reb M are highly glucosylated SGs that are valued for their superior sweetness and ...

Structural characterization of the degradation products of a minor natural sweet diterpene glycoside Rebaudioside M under acidic conditions. [PDF]
Degradation of rebaudioside M, a minor sweet component of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni, under conditions that simulated extreme pH and temperature conditions has been studied. Thus, rebaudioside M was treated with 0.1 M phosphoric acid solution (pH 2.0) and 80 °C temperature for 24 h.
