Purpose Cell-based meat is currently one of the most debated food sources recent decades, as it involves cultivating animal-derived biological tissues in controlled environments. Opinions on this topic vary widely; some see nutritional source a strategy to address sustainability challenges agri-food sector, while others perceive potential negative impact their culture and traditions. In context, study aimed gather opinions Italian students engaged animal production science studies assess viewpoints regarding socio-ethical, environmental, economic dimensions since they represent future generation professionals consumers. Design/methodology/approach study, hybrid qualitative-quantitative method Q-methodology was used. By leveraging strengths both qualitative quantitative approaches, provides systematic for examining interviewees’ subjectivity by gathering individuals’ points view into clusters referred factors. Findings The analysis results revealed existence four distinct factors within analyzed student population, highlighting different among group individuals pursuing same course study. Originality/value may provide additional insights debate offer valuable information policymakers discussion novel foods, particularly cell-based meat, which still lacks regulatory framework at European Union level.

Abstract This study provided a comprehensive physiochemical and functional comparison between food-grade, commercially available bovine lactoferrin (cLF) two precision-fermented variants (pfLF_highFe pfLF_lowFe) at varying iron saturation levels. LC-MS FTIR/CD spectroscopy confirmed high purity structural fidelity primary secondary levels, while UV-vis analysis revealed comparable molar absorptivity across all preparations. Fluorescence demonstrated tertiary variability with redshifts observed as result of binding. Molecular weight (M w ) comparisons made using SDS-PAGE showed pfLF_highFe pfLF_lowFe closely resembled cLF, glycosylation very similar N-glycan compositions site occupancy low samples. The isoelectric points (pI) were to cLF; however, varied slightly function saturation, did surface hydrophobicity (S 0 measurements. Thermal denaturation analyses characteristic behaviour preparations, differences again according the preparation’s saturation. Functional studies highlighted chelating ability native-LF cLF pfLF_lowFe, accompanying antimicrobial activity, but interaction capacity Lipid A (LPS) demonstrates preservation certain capabilities in irrespective

ABSTRACT Taste‐active peptides (TAPs) impart significant organoleptic attributes of food products. Their diverse taste profiles, such as umami, bitter, sweet, salty, sour, and kokumi, hold great potential for various nutraceutical applications. The perception is influenced by TAPs' interactions with receptors, which are governed their structural features, including amino acid composition, sequence, charge, molecular weight, bond configurations. Beyond taste, many TAPs exhibit bioactive properties health benefits that may find applications mitigating chronic diseases, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, inflammation, obesity, cancer. Understanding these characteristics enables the development tailored tastes functional benefits. This review aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding determinants TAPs, receptor interactions, dual role in health. Furthermore, it highlights advancements computational modeling machine learning TAP identification characterization. Future on expected significantly influence how industry addresses both flavor aspects.
