Chitosan‐Based pH‐Responsive Films and Edible Coatings to Enhance Fruit Shelf‐Life: Impact of Plant Biomolecules and Composition

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Chitosan based coatings/films forming solution with the use ofplant extracts and parameters for fruit shelf life analysis. ABSTRACT Fresh fruits are a natural source of various minerals and vitamins, which are essential for human health. However, a rapid rate of respiration, water loss and fast ripening ability result in shorter shelf life and ...

Aloe vera Tannin Ameliorates Fructose‐Induced Dyslipidaemia and Oxidative Stress in Wistar Rats

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Aloe vera tannin (AVT) significantly enhances liver reduced glutathione and superoxide dismutase activities in rats. Fructose consumption creates dyslipidaemia in rats by significantly increasing serum cholesterol and LDL levels. AVT prevented fructose‐induced dyslipidaemia in rats by controlling the lipid profile. AVT did not affect liver, hippocampus

Chemical Composition, Amino Acids, Phenolic Profiles and Bioavailability of Minerals in Livingstone Potato (Plectranthus esculentus) as Affected by Different Processing Techniques

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Boiling retained the nutrients and polyphenol compounds in Plectranthus esculentus tubers better than frying or roasting. A bioavailability study showed that the phytates and oxalates in the tuber may not affect the bioavailabilities of calcium, zinc, or iron in Plectranthus esculentus tubers when eaten.
