Msalais is a type of wine made by a series of processes such as boiling and fermentation from Hotan red grape juice. The Maillard reaction occurs during the boiling of the grape juice. The Amadori compound is a product of the early stage of the Maill...
Many amino acids, after undergoing the Maillard reaction with reducing sugars to form Amadori compounds, exhibit significantly enhanced functional activity. In this study, the Amadori compounds derived from theanine, N-(1-deoxy-D-fructose-1-yl)-L-the...
The thermodynamic stability of 11 complexes of Cu(II) and 26 complexes of Fe(III) is studied, comprising the ligands pyridoxamine (PM), ascorbic acid (ASC), and a model Amadori compound (AMD). In addition, the secondary antioxidant activity of PM is...
Maillard reactions generate a wide array of amino acid- and sugar-derived intermediates; the isomeric mixtures of glycated amino acids are of particular interest. Excluding stereoisomers, regioisomers, and various anomers, most amino acids can form t...
Bread crust is one of the major contributors to the intake of Maillard reaction products (MRP). MRP improve the organoleptic properties of foods and can provide biological actions such as antioxidant properties. The transport and availability of Amad...
The demand for healthier products has led the breakfast cereal sector to develop new formulations to improve the nutritional profile of breakfast cereals; however, the increase in chemical risks should also be evaluated. Amadori compounds and 5-hydro...
Buckwheat honey is known for its high antioxidant activity, yet the compounds responsible for this effect have not been fully identified. This study used LC-MS-based untargeted metabolomics to investigate the metabolite profile of buckwheat honey and...
The immune system plays an important role in maintaining body homeostasis. Recent studies on the immune-enhancing effects of ginseng saponins have revealed more diverse mechanisms of action. Maillard reaction that occurs during the manufacturing proc...
Furosine (Nε-(2-furoylmethyl)-l-lysine) is formed during the early stages of the Maillard reaction from a lysine Amadori compound and is frequently used as a marker of reaction progress. Furosine is toxic, with significant effects on animal l...
Onion (Allium cepa L.) is widely consumed as food or medicinal plant due to its well-defined health benefits. The antioxidant and antihyperlipidemic effects of onion and its extracts have been reported well. However, very limited information on anti-...
In our previous study, we reported that arginyl-fructose (AF), one of the Amadori rearrangement compounds (ARCs) produced by the heat processing of Korean ginseng can reduce carbohydrate absorption by inhibiting intestinal carbohydrate hydrolyzing en...
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most widely spread metabolic diseases. Because of its asymptomatic onset and slow development, early diagnosis and adequate glycaemic control are the prerequisites for successful T2DM therapy. In this con...
Tagatosamines form in thermally-processed dairy products and contribute to the foods’ organoleptic and nutritional value. d-Tagatose-N-methylaniline (N-(1-deoxy-d-tagatos-1-yl)-N-methylaniline, 1-deoxy-1-(N-methylphenylamino)-d-tagatose) was synthesi...
This paper aims to provide a contribution to understanding the role of sludge macro-components (lipids, proteins and carbohydrates) on the yield/quality of bio-crude obtained via hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL). This was pursued by analysing the HTL...
Accumulation of Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGEs) in body tissues plays a major role in the development of diabetic complications. Here, the inhibitory effect of bioactive metabolites isolated from fruit hulls of Garcinia mangostana on AGE format...
Glycation can be defined as an array of non-enzymatic post-translational modifications of proteins formed by their interaction with reducing carbohydrates and carbonyl products of their degradation. Initial steps of this process rely on reducing suga...
Non-volatile flavor precursors could be used to overcome the flavor loss problems of volatile flavor enhancers during long-term storage. Glu- and Phe-derived Amadori rearrangement products (ARPs) produce pleasant aroma tones thermally but are bitter....
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are associated with diabetes and its complications. AGEs are formed by the non-enzymatic reactions of proteins and reducing sugars, such as glucose and ribose. Ribose is widely used in glycation research as it g...
Endophytes are microorganisms living inside plant hosts and are known to be beneficial for the host plant vitality. In this study, we isolated three endophytic fungus species from the roots of Scots pine seedlings growing on Finnish drained peatland...
We have previously reported that Amadori compounds exert anti-diabetic effects by lowering sucrose-induced hyperglycemia in normal Sprague-Dawley rats. In the present study we extended our recent findings to evaluate whether α-glucosidase inhibitor a...
Oxygen deficiency in cells, tissues, and organs can not only prevent the proper development of biological functions but it can also lead to several diseases and disorders. In this sense, the kidney deserves special attention since hypoxia can be cons...
Glycation between proteins and sugars via the Maillard reaction has been shown to improve the heat stability of proteins. In this study, inulin, a healthy dietary fiber, was glycated with whey protein isolate (WPI), and the effects of reaction condit...
Arnica montana L. has been recognized for centuries as an herbal remedy to treat wounds and promote healing. It also has a long tradition of use in homeopathy. Depending on its medicinal utilization, standardization regulations allow different manufa...
Abelmoschus manihot (L.) Medic flower (AMf) exhibits both nutritional value and bioactivities such as antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, and hepatoprotective effects. The aim of this investigation was to examine the...
Honey differentiation based on the botanical origin is crucial to guarantee product authenticity, especially considering the increasing number of fraud cases. This study assessed the metabolomic differences arising from various botanical origins in h...
Background: Italy’s plant biodiversity, characterized by many plant species, is an important source of bioactive secondary metabolites that help reduce the risk of the development of advanced glycation end product (AGE)-related diseases. AGEs a...
