Desulfovibrio‐Hydrogen Sulfide Mediates Capsaicin‐Induced Oxidative Stress and Gut Inflammation via TXNIP/NLRP3 Pathway

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intake of capsaicin can disrupt the gut microecology and impact health, yet its underlying mechanism is not fully elucidated. This study, by establishing capsaicin‐induced human microbiota‐associated (HMA) mouse models revealed the molecular mechanism by which capsaicin perturbs the gut microbiota and metabolites, leading to intestinal ...

Contribution of Free Fatty Acids to Emulsion Building and Stability: Understanding the Mechanism From the Case Study of a Crude Red Palm Oil (Elaeis guineensis)—Based Emulsion Consumed in Africa and Known as Achu Soup/Sauce Jaune/Ncha

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
In an aqueous alkaline medium, fatty acids (from the hydrolysis of triglycerides or freely present in the oil) are ionised in order to form emulsifiers (carboxylates) which will physically stabilise the prepared emulsion. The higher the free fatty acids content of the oil and alkalinity of the solution, the higher will be the stability of the prepared ...

Functional Bread From Bambara Groundnut and Orange Peel Attenuates Hyperglycemia and Oxidative Stress in a High‐Fat Diet/Streptozotocin‐Induced Type 2 Diabetes Rat Model

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
This study evaluated Bambara groundnut–wheat composite bread fortified with orange peel in diabetic rats. Diets significantly lowered blood glucose, inhibited α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase, and boosted antioxidant enzymes compared to controls. Results emphasize BG‐based functional foods' potential to help manage type 2 diabetes through regulation of ...

Understanding protein–flavor interactions: Factors, characterization techniques, and the effect of processing

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The perception of flavor in a food system depends on its release from the protein matrix. Apart from hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions and van der Waal's forces, the formation of covalent adducts between the flavor and protein highly impacts the release of flavor from the protein matrix.
