Estimating Food Additive Intake: A Systematic Review of Intake and Nonlaboratory Methodologies
ABSTRACT Despite increasing interest in the physiological and health effects of select additives (e.g., artificial food colors, emulsifiers, flavor enhancers, and preservatives), it is unclear whether there is a preferred nonlaboratory methodology for measuring additive intake in humans (milligrams of additive per kilogram of bodyweight [mg/kg bw ...

Modification of steviol glycosides using α-amylase
Abstract Stevia extract usually contains a high content of stevioside which produces a significant bitter aftertaste, thus limiting its commercial application as a high-potency sweetener in foods. In order to improve its organoleptic properties, the stevia extract (containing 90 g/100 g stevioside) was modified by α-amylase from Aspergillus oryzae (

The Effect of Non‐Nutritive Sweeteners' Consumption on Body Weight: A Randomized‐Controlled Trial
Non‐nutritive sweeteners have been used as sugar alternatives for caloric control, but their effect on body weight remains controversial. A randomized‐controlled trial was conducted on a final number of 20 healthy Lebanese participants over a period of 6 weeks, with an initial screening session and two follow‐up sessions.
