Phlorotannin–alginate extracts from brown seaweeds offer promising natural solutions for food preservation. This study investigated the extraction, characterization, and application of phlorotannins and alginate from two brown seaweed species,...
Melanosis is an unsolved problem of the crustacean industry and the cause of great loss of value. This study investigates the effect of two potent, natural antioxidants isolated from olive waste (hydroxytyrosol, HT and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylglycol, DHPG...
The effect of Lonicera japonica Thunb. (LJT) extract on melanosis and quality deterioration of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) during cold storage was evaluated, using 4-hexylresorcinol (4-HR), a commercial melanosis inhibitor, as a posit...
Shrimp has been known for its delicacy, but it undergoes rapid deterioration induced by biochemical and microbiological reactions. Melanosis is a major cause of discoloration associated with consumer rejection. All ethanolic extracts from different l...
The effectiveness of multi-targeted treatments including pulsed electric field (PEF), soursop leaf extract (SLE), vacuum impregnation (VI), and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), with and without cold plasma (CP) treatment, on the quality and shelf...
The antioxidant and antibacterial properties of four essential oils (oregano essential oil (OEO), tea tree essential oil (TTEO), wild orange essential oil (WOEO), and clove leaf essential oil (CLEO)) were determined. The in-vitro experiment indicated...
Crustaceans are perishable with a short shelf-life. They are prone to deterioration after capture, particularly during handling, processing, and storage due to melanosis caused by polyphenoloxidase (PPO). Therefore, inhibitory effects of chitooligosa...
