The by-products of passion fruit are typically discarded during processing, contributing to resource waste and environmental harm. These residues are rich in dietary fiber and polyphenols, compounds linked to health benefits, including blood sugar re...

Given the critical need for strategies to enhance food safety and quality, particularly due to the rapid spoilage of fish, this study investigated the effect of dietary supplementation with green alga (Chlorella pyrenoidosa) on the shelf life of Nile...

Depression poses increasing public health challenges, and alternative dietary strategies are gaining attention for their potential therapeutic effects. This study evaluates a natural ingredient-based formula powder (FP) for its antidepressant effects...

In this study, we extracted, separated, and purified polysaccharides from Se-enriched Cyclocarya paliurus (Se-CPP-1) and compared them with their non-Se-enriched counterparts (CPP-1) to investigate the impact of selenium on their structural and funct...

This study investigated the effect of the water content of large yellow croaker fillets on their quality characteristics after roasting. The large yellow croaker fillets were randomly divided into groups, namely, the fresh group (BMC-77), the 3% salt...

The mechanistic effects of Zanthoxylum bungeanum on the textural properties of Tibetan pig sausages remain inadequately elucidated. We conducted a dose–response analysis using Z. bungeanum aqueous extraction (ZBAE) containing 36.97 mg GAE/g pol...

In this study, an efficient and eco-friendly method was developed for continuous liquid–liquid extraction of lutein from microalgae Chlorella vulgaris. By employing a limonene-based biphasic liquid system, high-purity lutein was successfully ob...

Food safety is an important requirement for protecting human health worldwide. In particular, medical students’ education on food safety is essential for them as future physicians, and university education is the first step in acquiring this kn...

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is a novel and versatile technology, which is not yet used in the food and agricultural sector for barley processing. In lab-scale applications, the technology shows potential in extending shelf life and ensuring food sa...

This study investigated the extraction and colloidal properties of pea protein isolates (PPIs) from four pea cultivars produced in a southern region in Italy. The control PPIs (C-PPIs) were obtained via an alkaline extraction and isoelectric precipit...
