A Comprehensive Review of Starch: Structure, Properties, Chemical Modification, and Application in Food Preservation

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
The negative effects of widely used polyethylene‐plastic packaging on environment and consumers' health along with the advantages of biopolymers lead to attention on active and degradable packaging as safe alternatives. Xie et al. thoroughly review starch, focusing on its chemical modification and application in constructing active and degradable ...

Effect of Millets and Fructo‐Oligosaccharide on Development of Fiber‐Enriched Pancake Premix

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study aimed to create a high‐fiber pancake mix and assess its impact on physical, chemical, and textural properties. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to determine the best combination of factors for a high‐quality product comparable to the control to achieve an optimized functional pancake mix.

Valorization of Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) Bean Shell and Tigernuts (Cyperus esculentus) as Partial Wheat‐Flour Replacer in Cookies Formulation: Nutritional and Quality Assessment

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Two key sustainable strategies to ensure food and health security are alternative food sourcing and by‐products valorization. Hence, this study aimed at producing cookies with potential blood‐glucose reducing properties by a partial replacement of wheat flour (W) with tigernuts (T) and pre‐treated cocoa bean shell (C) using optimal mixture ...

Evaluation of Physicochemical and Sensory Properties of Multi‐Nutrient Fortified Flours

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Malnutrition is a prevalent issue in underdeveloped countries, and the development of high‐nutrient foods is a proposed intervention to address this issue. Food fortification is one of the best interventions to address this problem. Wheat–millet multi‐nutrient flour with enhanced nutritional value, such as increased protein, fiber, and antioxidant ...

Assessment of Striga resistance in wild relatives of sorghum under field conditions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade), 2018
The witch-weeds (Striga spp.) are destructive root parasites of many crops. They result in considerable crop damage, especially in the semiarid tropic parts of the world. The parasite control is difficult due to the complexity of the parasite life cycle,

Exploring the Molecular Pathways Underlying the Anti‐Diabetic Effects of Millets

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Millet consumption may modulate gluconeogenesis and glycolysis, enhance glucose transporter activity, increase leptin levels, inhibit the NF‐κB pathway, and mitigate oxidative and nitrosative stress. ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemic conditions resulting from inadequate insulin production or ...
