The objective of this research was to study the effectiveness of NaFeEDTA-fortified soy sauce for controlling iron deficiency in a high-risk population. This was an 18-month, randomized, placebo-controlled intervention trial in 14,000 residents aged three years or older in Bijie City, Guizhou Province, China, using sodium-iron ethylene diamine tetraacetate (NaFeEDTA)-fortified soy sauce (29.6 m...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of germinating soybeans under dark and light conditions on the quality characteristics of Korean soy sauce made with germinated soybeans. The germination rate of soybeans germinated under dark conditions (GSD) was higher than that of soybeans germinated under light conditions (GSL), whereas the lengths of sprouts and relative weights of GSL did n...

Chinese liquor is one of the world's oldest distilled alcoholic beverages and an important commercial fermented product in China. The Chinese liquor fermentation process has three stages: making Daqu (the starter), stacking fermentation on the ground, and liquor fermentation in pits. We investigated the bacterial diversity of Maotai and Guotai Daqu and liquor fermentation using high-throughput ...

Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) method was developed to determine 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) in hydrolyzed vegetable protein and Chinese soy sauce. The 3-MCPD was firstly derivativized with phenylboronic acid in aqueous solution at 90 degrees C for 10 min, then extracted by HS-SPME and finally detected with GC/MS, ...

Tetragenococcus muriaticus strains 3MR10-3 and PMC-11-5 are homofermentative halophilic lactic acid bacteria isolated from Thai fish sauce during natural fermentation. Their draft genomes were sequenced. Our interest in these organisms is related to their impact on fish sauce flavor and their high osmotolerance.

A nationwide multicenter susceptibility surveillance study (Susceptibility to the Antimicrobials Used in the Community in España [SAUCE] project), SAUCE-4, including 2,559 Streptococcus pneumoniae, 2,287 Streptococcus pyogenes, and 2,736 Haemophilus influenzae isolates was carried out from May 2006 to June 2007 in 34 Spanish hospitals. Then, the results from SAUCE-4 were compared to those from ...

This study tried to develop Siraegi by boiling it down in soy seasoning sauce with excellent sensory attributes and evaluate the quality characteristics in order to enhance the value of traditional agricultural products, dried radish leaves. Sugar content of the seasoning sauce were finally established at 30% (w/v) compared with the starch syrup, which was added to the sauce through sensory eva...

Growth of lactic acid bacteria and amino acid production at an Indonesian soy sauce manufacturer, employing modern Japanese process technology, indicated that brine fermentation for one month is sufficient for industrial kecap production. Compared to traditional Indonesian soy sauce fermentation, application of modern Japanese process technology resulted in an obvious but not essential yeast fe...

Lycopene is present mainly as cis-isomers in human serum and tissues whereas all-trans-lycopene predominates in tomato products, suggesting that all-trans-lycopene is isomerised in the body or is less bioavailable. The objectives of the present study were to develop processing conditions for tomatoes to obtain products with different cis-trans-lycopene isomer distribution and to assess their bi...
