Influence of processing temperature on production of red beetroot powder as a natural red colorant using foam‐mat drying: Experimental and modeling study

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 11, Page 6955-6973, November 2023., 2023
Red beetroot powder was produced using foam‐mat drying as influenced by temperature. Coupled heat and mass transfer modeling was developed to optimize the drying process. Temperature rise improved morphology and some physicochemical properties of powders. The produced powder can be used as a safe replacement for artificial food colorants. Abstract With

Dietary inclusion effect of various sources of phyto‐additives on growth, feed utilization, body composition, and plasma chemistry of olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus), and challenge test against Edwardsiella tarda compared to a commercial probiotic (super lacto®)

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 54, Issue 5, Page 1121-1136, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Inclusion of various sources of additives in aquafeeds is practically helpful to elevate the growth performance and disease resistance of aquatic animals. An 8‐week feeding trial was conducted to determine the inclusion effects of phyto‐additives (yacon, ginger, and blueberry) into diets on olive flounder growth, feed utilization, chemical ...

Comparison of ohmic heating‐ and microwave‐assisted extraction techniques for avocado leaves valorization: Optimization and impact on the phenolic compounds and bioactivities

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 9, Page 5609-5620, September 2023., 2023
The paper addresses the hypothesis that using green extraction techniques may provide time, cost, and energy saving compared to traditional methods. We show that using ohmic (OHAE)‐ and microwave‐assisted extraction (MAE) techniques for Fuerte avocado pruning waste leaves phenolics provides less solvent consumption and better extraction efficiency with
