Chemistry Composition and Bioaccessibility Study of Phenolic Compounds and Carotenoids of New Brazilian Biofortified Sweet Potato “CIP BRS Nuti”

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Phenolic compounds of sweet potato CIP BRS Nuti were evaluated for the first time. Catechin, epicatechin, and procyanidin B1 exhibited high bioaccessibility. ABSTRACT Sweet potatoes biofortified in carotenoids have been an alternative to combat malnutrition in vulnerable populations. This work is the first comprehensive study of the bioactive potential

Rewiring metabolic flux to simultaneously improve malate production and eliminate by‐product succinate accumulation by Myceliophthora thermophila

Microbial Biotechnology
Although a high titre of malic acid is achieved by filamentous fungi, by‐product succinic acid accumulation leads to a low yield of malic acid and is unfavourable for downstream processing.
