Soybean is widely consumed in the world, particularly in Asian countries. The various soybean products could be separated in‐ to non-fermented and fermented soybean products. The non-fermented soybean products include soymilk, tofu, yuba, soybean sprou...

High-performance liquid chromatographic methods were developed for the isolation and quantitative determination of the group B soyasaponins, including 2,3-dihydro-2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one (DDMP)-conjugated soyasaponins alphag, betag, and betaa, and their non-DDMP counterparts, soyasaponins V, I, and II, respectively, with formononetin used as the internal standard. The limits of qu...

Meat, as an important source of protein, is one of the main parts of many people’s diet. Due toeconomic interests and thereupon adulteration, there are special concerns on its accurate labeling.In this study Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy combined with chemometrictechniques (principal component analysis (PCA), artificial neural networks (ANNs), and partial<...

objective: to ascertain the effects of soy [in the forms of textured soy protein (tsp) and soy-nut] on lipid profiles, apolipoproteins, inflammatory and prothrombotic markers and blood pressure in elderly women with the metabolic syndrome. materials and methods: the study is a 12-week parallel randomized controlled trial that was conducted in rural health centres of babol, iran. the participant...

background: to examine the effects of soy [in the form of textured soy protein (tsp) and soy-nut] on body composition in elderly women with metabolic syndrome (mets). methods: a 12-week randomized clinical trial was conducted on 75 women between 60-70 years of age with mets in rural health clinics around babol, iran in 2009. the participants were randomly assigned to one of the three groups of ...

The sensory quality attributes of coated anduncoated beef burger patties formulated with texture soy granules or vegetables (peas andcarrots) were studied in comparison to that of the control. In corporation of textured soy significantly reduced the color, marbling, appearance, flavor, tenderness, juiciness, taste andoverall acceptability in comparison with either control or vegetable extended ...

OBJECTIVE Several short-term trials on the effect of soy consumption on cardiovascular risks are available, but little evidence exists regarding the impact of long-term soy protein consumption among type 2 diabetic patients with nephropathy. To determine the effects of long-term soy consumption on cardiovascular risks, we measured C-reactive protein (CRP) and kidney function indexes among type ...
