Processes, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 10(10), С. 2014 - 2014

Опубликована: Окт. 5, 2022

Fruit waste contains several bioactive components such as polyphenols, polysaccharides, and numerous other phytochemicals, including pigments. Furthermore, new financial opportunities are created by using fruit ‘leftovers’ a basis for bioactivities that may serve foods or food ingredients, strengthening the circular economy’s properties. From technical standpoint, organic phenolic substances have become more appealing to industry, in addition their application nutritional supplements functional meals. Several extraction methods recovering compounds from already been published, most of which involve different solvents. However, there is growing demand eco-friendly sustainable techniques result phenolic-rich extracts with little ecological impact. Utilizing these advanced green will reduce global crisis caused management. Using modern techniques, residue degraded sub-zero scales, yielding bio-based commodities elements. This review highlights favorable creative separating materials residue. Extraction based on environmentally friendly technologies bioreactors, enzyme-assisted extraction, ultrasound-assisted combination specifically covered.

Refined sugar is a processed product containing 99% sucrose, which obtained from sugarcane (70%) or beet (30%). In modern societies, continues to play significant role in the diet, recognised not only for its flavour and special sweetening properties but also food preservation. On other hand, high consumption of refined associated with non-communicable diseases many health issues such as risk dental caries, overweight neurodevelopmental disorders children. Alternatives like unrefined sugars have generated lot interest healthy substitute due their nutraceutical properties. This paper aimed review beneficial effects derived natural sources highlight problems that could be caused by sugar. frequently used variety items including foods, soft drinks ice creams although it considered unhealthy salt content well added fats artificial coloring. Natural are preferred because they nutritional value concentration compounds, offset negative Therefore, removing at least reducing should promoted healthier option choices.

Biostimulants as Innovative Tools to Boost Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) Performance under Drought, Salinity, and Heavy Metal(Oid)s’ Stresses: A Concise Review

Sustainability, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 14(23), С. 15984 - 15984

Опубликована: Ноя. 30, 2022

Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is constantly subjected to abiotic stresses. Hence, the application of biostimulants, such as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), organic amendments hold tremendous potential significantly improve growth yield date palm. The strengthening biostimulants’ main common modes action exerted through five functions: biostimulation (essentially), biofertilization, bioprotection, biological control, role bio-effector. Moreover, synergistic complementary effects manifest biochemical nutritional benefits, in addition molecular modulation. In this regard, present concise review focuses on highlighting beneficial impact AMF PGPR, well amendments, boosting health status productivity plants Furthermore, mechanisms reinforcing plants’ resilience stresses, powered by are particularly emphasized. Based review, we could conclude that overall findings corroborate AMF–PGPR and/or compost manure terms palm’s traits, development, yielding, soil properties under extreme environmental factors, those drought, salinity, excessive heavy metal(oid)s. Thus, biostimulants can confer against

Optimization and Intensification of Bioactive Components and Antioxidant Activity of Extracts from Date Fruit (Phoenix dactylifera L.) Using Pulsed Electric Fields (PEF) Technology and Thermal Processing

Processes, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 11(3), С. 884 - 884

Опубликована: Март 15, 2023

The objective of this study was to assess the impact pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment on extraction polyphenolics and antioxidant activity from downgraded date palm fruits. PEF pretreatments (frequency: 30 Hz, time: 50 μs, pulse number: 240, strengths were found be 1, 2, 2.5 kV.cm−1, methanol (50%) temperatures (20, 40, °C)) optimized applied before produce an extract fruits with a high content bioactive compounds. extracts obtained immediately after analyzed for total polyphenolic content, activity, phenolic profiles. results revealed that PEF-assisted at kV.cm−1 T50 °C exhibited higher polyphenol (+27%) (+31%) notably improved profiles compared untreated extracts. processing significantly enhanced components activities over time, regardless extraction’s temperature. Hence, application combined thermal can appropriate alternative better extractability compounds fruit dates food byproducts. These biomolecules could consumed as new technology, incorporated additives, nutraceuticals products.

Abstract Purpose of Review Increasing evidence on the significance nutrition in reproduction is emerging from both animal and human studies, suggesting an association between male fertility. Here, we have highlighted impact various food groups reproductive hormones spermatogenesis, effects classical latest dietary patterns such as Mediterranean diet, Western intermittent fasting, ketogenic vegan/vegetarian diet Recent Findings Nutrients are precursors molecules involved body’s reactions; therefore, their balance essential to ensure correct regulation different systems including endocrine system. Hormones strongly influenced by nutritional status individual, alteration can lead dysfunctions or diseases like infertility. In addition, nutrients affect sperm production controlling sexual development, maintaining secondary characteristics behaviors. Summary The consumption fruit, vegetables, fish, processed meats, dairy products, sugars, alcohol, caffeine importantly Among patterns, most associated with quality semen.

Three energy-rich protein (ERP) bars were prepared to meet the daily recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for of Pakistani athletes. The developed using dates, cheddar cheese (CC), whey isolate (WPI), roasted chickpea flour, and rice flour in different proportions. Bar #1 contained 64 g 16 dried apricots, 12 WPI, 8 ripened CC. #2 same proportion these ingredients with an addition 12.5 while bar #3 6.25 flour. All homogeneously mixed into paste form weighing 100-110 per serving size. These studied compositional analysis (moisture, protein, lipid content), characterization through sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), vitro determination angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE-I) antihypertensive activity. Moisture content 22% 0.057%-0.313%, respectively, fiber, ash contents varied from 22.3% 23.6%, 6.66 5.81, 2.12% 2.44%, respectively. minimum energy was recorded (272.70 Kcal/100 g) showed highest 274.65 Kcal/110 (5%) Electrophoresis proteins # 1 (cheese +WPI) four bands at 62, 24, 20, kDa.
