Fermented Plant‐Based Milks: A Review of Physicochemical and Technological Aspects to Sensory and Probiotic Attributes

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Technological and biotechnological processes, including fermentation with selected starter cultures, convert diverse plant raw materials into fermented plant‐based milks. These processes enhance nutritional profiles, functional and probiotic compounds, and improve physicochemical and sensory properties, supported by predictive modeling to optimize ...

Chemical Composition, Amino Acids, Phenolic Profiles and Bioavailability of Minerals in Livingstone Potato (Plectranthus esculentus) as Affected by Different Processing Techniques

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Boiling retained the nutrients and polyphenol compounds in Plectranthus esculentus tubers better than frying or roasting. A bioavailability study showed that the phytates and oxalates in the tuber may not affect the bioavailabilities of calcium, zinc, or iron in Plectranthus esculentus tubers when eaten.

THE EFFECT OF RIBOFLAVIN DEFICIENCY ON RENAL DAMAGE DUE TO SULPHANILYLGUANIDINE IN THE ALBINO RAT

, 1946
Certain intestinal bacteria can synthesize some of the B vitamins, and others may synthesize vitamin K. In an attempt to deprive rats, maintained on a riboflavin deficient ration, of riboflavin that might have been synthesized in the intestine ...

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...
