Extracellular vesicles derived from edible plants and edible fungi: Compositional characteristics, engineering strategies and biofunctions

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Non‐animal extracellular vesicles as bioactive‐compound carriers: compositional characteristics, engineering strategies, and biofunctions. Abstract Animal‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) were widely used for bioactive compound delivery but constrained by complex origins, potential immunogenicity, and pathogen contamination.

Functional diabetic biscuits enriched with cereal fibers, black plum (jamun) and bioactive spices

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Cereal fibres, black plum (jamun) seed powder and bioactive spices can be combined with controlled mixing, hydration and baking to design functional biscuits. Fibre‐rich structures may limit starch accessibility, while polyphenols may inhibit starch‐digesting enzymes.

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 ...

Structural, physicochemical, and techno‐functional properties of ultrasound‐treated chickpea starch

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the effects of ultrasonication duration (10, 20, 30, and 40 min) on the physicochemical, functional, structural, thermal, and rheological properties of chickpea starch. Ultrasonication significantly enhanced water absorption capacity (WAC) and oil absorption capacity (OAC), with maximum values observed for U40 (2.13 g/g
