The adoption of immersive technologies is increasing in sensory, consumer, and marketing research, yet existing extended reality (XR) systems face limitations in realism, ease of product interaction, presence, data collection, and scalability. This s...

Extrusion is a method for preparing ready-to-use rice powders that can help reduce cooking time. This study aimed to investigate the effects of extrusion on the physicochemical properties, antioxidant, and anti-calcium oxalate crystal formation activ...

Esters are predominant fragrance components in various traditional fermented foods. Hongqu rice wine, a beverage gaining popularity among young consumers in China, largely owes its aromatic profile to esterases derived from Monascus species. However,...

Tilapia is a cornerstone species in global aquaculture, yet the impact of saline-alkaline adaptive breeding on its flavor-related volatile organic compounds (VOCs) remains unclear. Herein, we compared VOCs in freshwater-cultured tilapia (FW) and 7th-...

Storage time significantly influences the aroma quality of peanut oil. In this study, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography–ion migration spectrometry (GC-IMS) were used to analyze the volatile flavor compoun...

Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) affects millions of people around the world, particularly in populations with limited dietary diversity. The present study aimed to develop β-carotene-fortified coconut oil using Pouteria campechiana (Canistel), which...

In recent years, emerging biodegradable food-packaging materials based on nanocellulose with excellent comprehensive performance have become a promising, environmentally friendly raw material, which can be used as an ideal substrate for degradable co...

Breakdown of cold-chain integrity drives the persistence of foodborne pathogens in poultry supply chains in warm, mountainous climates. This study used Al-Mandaq (Saudi Arabia) as a model to assess genetic diversity and contamination in bacteria from...

The growing demand for sustainable proteins has driven interest in Limnospira platensis (Spirulina) due to its high protein content. However, the presence of the cell wall limits the availability and recovery of proteins within it. Conventional alkal...

Paulownia tomentosa flowers are rich in flavonoids with promising biological activities. However, few studies have investigated their potential for α-glucosidase inhibition. This study compared ultrasound-assisted cellulase extraction and ultra...
