“Effects of High‐Intensity Ultrasound on the Structural, Technofunctional, and Allergenic Properties of Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Protein Isolates: A Review”

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing global demand for sustainable, nutritionally balanced protein sources has intensified interest in plant‐derived proteins, particularly those derived from oilseeds such as groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). However, although groundnut protein isolates (GPIs) have high nutritional quality, they exhibit limitations in technofunctional ...

Energy budgeting, carbon footprint and economics of sunflower and pigeonpea system under moisture conservation practices in rainfed semi-arid tropics

open access: yesEnvironmental and Sustainability Indicators
In drylands, soil water availability in the profile during crop period, especially at critical stages is most vital. System which is productive, energy efficient with a minimum carbon (C) footprint under limited water condition is a concern. Therefore we

Fluorescent light and sunlight radiations may improve rice bran oil colour and influence its oxidative stability and chemical composition

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The influence of pretreatment of rice bran oil using fluorescent and sunlight radiations on its colour and their influence on its chemical composition and oxidative stability were assessed. Rice bran oil was stored under sunlight, fluorescent light and ambient conditions for 60 days. Oil samples were collected every 15 days for analysis.

Beeswax: Food and beyond

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) are an important class of insects that are the most beneficial in terms of economy. Beeswax is the second most important bee products after honey. Its commercial importance is due to its antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and antiseptic as well as regenerative properties.

Natural expression variation for the Arabidopsis MED20a mediator complex subunit influences quantitative resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionThe necrotrophic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a destructive plant pathogen that can infect a broad range of host plants, including many agriculturally important crop species. Resistance to S.

Natural extracts of soursop flowers, aged green tea leaves, and ginger rhizomes mitigate thermo‐oxidative degradation of palm olein during plantain chip deep‐frying

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Addition of old green tea leaves, soursop flowers and ginger root extract at concentrations 1000, 1400, and 1800 ppm in palm olein significantly extend its shelf‐life during frying of plantain chips. These plants' extracts are potential alternative to the use of synthetic antioxidants in preserving oil quality. Abstract This work was designed to assess

Effect of Storage Temperature and Materials on Protein Quality and Functional Properties of Soybeans

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Hermetic PICS bags combined with cool storage (15°C) effectively preserved soybean protein quality and functional properties ([protein solubility, emulsifying capacity, and oil absorption capacity] of soybean protein isolates) during storage. Polypropylene bags and 25°C accelerated protein deterioration lead to significant nutritional losses.
