During brewery handling, production strains of yeast must respond to fluctuations in dissolved oxygen concentration, pH, osmolarity, ethanol concentration, nutrient supply and temperature. Fermentation performance of brewing yeast strains is dependent on their ability to adapt to these changes, particularly during batch brewery fermentation which involves the recycling (repitching) of a single ...

Some hydrophobic substances in foods may improve human health and wellbeing, including oil-soluble vitamins nutraceuticals. The fortification of beverages with these has therefore become an important focus modern food research. However, many bioactives have low bioavailability because their poor water-solubility chemical instability, which limits application as health-promoting ingredients. Thi...

Simultaneous administration of different phenolic compounds might produce a synergistic effect offering greater activity against chronic non-communicable diseases. This has prompted significant interest in developing nanodelivery systems that simultaneously encapsulate bioactives and protect them from gastrointestinal digestion. work aimed at evaluating the suitability zein (ZN) zein/polysaccha...

PREMISE OF THE STUDY We tested the credibility and significance of digital field photographs as supplements or substitutes for conventional herbarium specimens with particular relevance to exploration of the tropics. METHODS We made 113 collections in triplicate at a species-rich mountain in the Philippines while we took 1238 digital photographs of the same plants. We then identified the plan...

Background: Cereal crops, particularly wheat, are a major dietary source of starch, and the bioaccessibility of starch has implications for postprandial glycemia. The structure and properties of plant foods have been identified as critical factors in influencing nutrient bioaccessibility; however, the physical and biochemical disassembly of cereal food during digestion has not been widely studi...

background; various industries produce and discharge wastes containing different heavy metals into the environment. apart from using living biomass, dead and dried biomasses have been introduced as a new field of biotreatment technology. method; the cadmium (cd) (ii) removal characteristics of live (growing), dead (autoclaved), and oven-dried biomasses of aspergillus versicolor were examined as...

Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (C. reinhardtii) has a potential as novel source for food/feed because it contains several constituents including bioactive compounds. However, its multilayer cell wall (hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein [HRPGs]) may restrict the bioaccessibility of nutrients. Therefore, using disruption techniques such hydrodynamic cavitation (HDC) can be useful assessing single This w...

Cereals and legumes are rich in folate. However, due to the instability of folate, processing digestion can induce significant folate loss. In this paper, bioaccessibility faba bean, oat, rye wheat flours pastes was studied using a static vitro model. Folate depended on food matrices, varying from 42% 67% 40% 123% pastes. Digestion associated with interconversion formyl folates, as well increas...
