Oat proteins as emerging ingredients for food formulation: where we stand?
(Springer, 2021-01-30)
Over the last decades, interest in oats (Avena sativa L.) as healthy foods increased due to their multiple functional and bioactive components such as dietary fibers, polyphenols, and proteins. Protein ...
Releases of the parasitoid Anisopteromalus calandrae (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) can control Sitophilus zeamais (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in big bags of paddy rice
(Elsevier, 2021-08-12)
Sitophilus zeamais is a key pest in stored rice in Spain and other Mediterranean countries. Today, it is mostly controlled with a few pesticides, such as pyrethroids or phosphine. Apart from the problem ...
Evaluating adaptation options to sea level rise and benefits to agriculture: The Ebro Delta showcase
(Elsevier, 2021-09-28)
Sea level rise (SLR) is threatening low-lying coastal areas such as river deltas. The Ebro river Delta (Spain) is representative of coastal systems particularly vulnerable to SLR due to significant ...
Semi-solid fibre syrup for sugar reduction in cookies
(Wiley, 2021-08-05)
Since sugar reduction is a pillar of the international nutritional guideline, the food industry is constantly looking for new ingredients able to replace sugar technological functionality while satisfying ...
Non-animal proteins as cutting-edge ingredients to reformulate animal-free foodstuffs: Present status and future perspectives
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-03-27)
Consumer interest in protein rich diets is increasing, with more attention being paid to the protein source. Despite the occurrence of animal proteins in the human diet, non-animal proteins are gaining ...
Risk management tool to define a corrective storage to enhance Salmonella inactivation in dry fermented sausages
(Elsevier, 2021-03-16)
The resistance of Salmonella to the harsh conditions occurring in shelf-stable dry fermented sausages (DFS) poses a food safety challenge for producers. The present study aimed to model the behaviour ...
Cyclodextrin polymers as passive sampling materials for lipophilic marine toxins in Prorocentrum lima cultures and a Dinophysis sacculus bloom in the NW Mediterranean Sea
(Elsevier, 2021-07-09)
Cyclodextrins, cyclic oligomers that form a conical structure with an internal cavity, are proposed as new and sustainable materials for passive sampling of lipophilic marine toxins. Two applicability ...
Increasing breast milk betaine modulates Akkermansia abundance in mammalian neonates and improves long-term metabolic health
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2021-03-31)
Accelerated postnatal growth is a potentially modifiable risk factor for future obesity. To study how specific breast milk components contribute to early growth and obesity risk, we quantified one-carbon ...
PbSRT1 and PbSRT2 regulate pear growth and ripening yet displaying a species-specific regulation in comparison to other Rosaceae spp.
(Elsevier, 2021-05-01)
Epigenetic regulation is crucial to ensure a coordinated control of the different events that occur during fruit development and ripening. Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases involved in ...
Lupine (Lupinus spp.) proteins: characteristics, safety and food applications
(Springer, 2021-11-13)
Lupines (Lupinus spp.) have emerged as a cheap functional food with the advantages of being non-genetically modifed crop,
able to adapt to harsh conditions and low-input farming. Lupines are rich in ...
