Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Optimized Production of Xylitol from Xylose Using a Hyper-Acidophilic Candida tropicalis

Biomolecules, 2015
The yeast Candida tropicalis DSM 7524 produces xylitol, a natural, low-calorie sweetener, by fermentation of xylose. In order to increase xylitol production rate during the submerged fermentation process, some parameters-substrate (xylose) concentration,

Disclosing the production of fungal chitinases and proteases using insect by‐products as substrates in solid‐state fermentation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The world population is projected to reach nearly 9.7 billion by 2050, significantly increasing the demand for novel and sustainable protein sources. Edible insects, such as Tenebrio molitor, emerge as promising alternatives due to their high nutritional value, but adult insects and frass are direct and abundant by‐products of this ...

Arabinoxylan‐enriched fraction from durum wheat meal modulates structure, texture, nutritional and sensory properties of extruded snacks

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Arabinoxylans (AX), abundant in wheat bran, represent a valuable yet underutilized fraction of cereal milling by‐products. In this study, an AX‐enriched fraction obtained from durum wheat meal (DWM), produced from defatted durum wheat germ and debranning fractions, was incorporated at increasing levels (0–25%) into pea starch ...

Antimicrobial bilayer starch film containing zein electrospun fibers encapsulating thyme essential oil for cherry tomato packaging

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of thyme essential oil (TEO) encapsulated in electrospun zein fibers for use in bilayer films as active packaging for cherry tomatoes. The antimicrobial activity of TEO and bilayer films with 20%, 40%, and 60% TEO was assessed with agar diffusion and microatmosphere assays.

Nitrogen‐doped graphene quantum dots tune the mineral, acid, and sugar profile of raisins in a cultivar‐specific manner

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Carbon dots are emerging as low‐toxicity nano‐biostimulants, but their effects on the integrated mineral, organic‐acid, and sugar profiles of grape berries remain poorly characterized, especially in indigenous Vitis vinifera L. cultivars.
