From Agro‐Industrial Waste to Functional Packaging Using Antimicrobial and Mechanically Reinforced Starch Foams With Melon Seed and Rosemary

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Agro‐industrial waste was upcycled into biodegradable starch foams reinforced with melon seed and rosemary flours, yielding sustainable food packaging with enhanced mechanical performance, selective antimicrobial activity, and rapid biodegradation. ABSTRACT The demand for sustainable alternatives to petroleum‐based packaging has promoted starch‐based ...

Fundamentals, Advances, and Applications of Electrospun Nanofibrous 3D Materials

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional electrospun nanofibrous systems offer unique properties and microenvironments. These properties are determined by the fabrication strategies employed and can be adjusted by the incorporation of functional additives to achieve multifunctionality for specific applications. The applications range from the biomedical to the environmental,

Production of resistant starch type III from native sago starch as a potential prebiotic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Resistant starch (RS) is the sum of starch that escape upper gastrointestinal digestion and can be fermented by colonic microorganisms to produce beneficial metabolites such as short chain fatty acids (SCFA). Resistant starch can be a potential prebiotic,

Manipulation of the structure of type 4 resistant starch using cross-linking and acylation treatment and its diverse influence on digestion and in vitro fermentation characteristics

open access: yesCurrent Research in Food Science
To enhance the digestion resistibility and short-chain fatty acid contents of corn starch, type 4 resistant starch was obtained by chemical cross-linking with sodium phytate and acylation with acetic, propionic, and butyric anhydride, respectively.

Production of Resistant Starch by Roasting Retrograded Starch with Glucose

open access: yesMolecules
Starch is a natural plant raw material applicable in many areas of industry. In practice, it is most often used in a modified form, i.e., after various treatments aimed at modifying its properties. Modifications of native starch enable producing resistant starch, which, as a prebiotic with confirmed health-promoting properties, has been increasingly ...

Enhancing Meat Quality Through Dietary Fiber: Insights Into the Gut Microbiota‐Derived Short‐Chain Fatty Acids‐Muscle Axis

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of
