TL;DR: A new colorimetric pH indicator film was developed using agar, potato starch, and natural dyes extracted from purple sweet potato, Ipomoea batatas and showed pH changes and spoilage point of pork samples, changing from red to green.

TL;DR: The results demonstrated that T. daenensis-3, T. vulgaris, and T. fedtschenkoi-3 possessed higher antioxidant activities than the others, and the Thymus species with high bioactive compounds may be recommended for further food applications.

TL;DR: A novel bio-refinery approach would aim to produce a wider range of valuable chemicals from FPW, and the financial challenges encountered in existing methods are discussed.

TL;DR: During processing and digestion, milk proteins are disassembled into peptides with an array of biological functions, including antimicrobial, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition, antioxidant, opioid, and immunomodulation, which are summarized in numerous reviews.

TL;DR: Both the technique and the coating material greatly influenced the encapsulation of antioxidant PC, and the best results were achieved when PC were encapsulated by freeze-drying using maltodextrin as wall material.

TL;DR: 200MPa was the optimum pressure level for modifying MP conformation to improve its gelation properties, and actin and myosin completely denatured at 300MPa and 400MPa, respectively.

TL;DR: B nobiletin is a good chemical marker for assessing the anti-inflammatory potential of OPE from different sources, and provided potentially superior health benefits compared to conventional chenpi sources.

TL;DR: It is assumed that low molecular weight peptides have a greater ACE inhibition because lower molecular weight amino acids have a higher absorbency in the body and the effect is closely related with the degree of enzymatic hydrolysis and the composition of the peptide sequence.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that NADESs can be used as green solvents for the extraction of bioactive ingredients and the biocompatibility and biodegradability of the tested NADess were excellent.

TL;DR: The suppression effect of fungal contamination in maize indicated that turmeric EO has potential as an eco-friendly antifungal agent.

TL;DR: The usage of mono-dispersed gliadin/chitosan hybrid particles as a particulate emulsifier for Pickering high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) development opens an attractive strategy to convert liquid oils to viscoelastic soft solids without artificial trans fats, as a potential alternative for PHOs.

TL;DR: Of the pure phenolic compounds tested, myricetin showed the highest inhibition of α-amylase, α-glucosidase and lipase, and myricetic substances showed the lowest inhibition of β-amYLase,α- glucosidsase and Lipase.

TL;DR: This review comprehensively summarizes the existing knowledge regarding the chemical implications of anthocyanin glycosyl acylation, the effects of acylations on the stability of acyated anthochenins and the corresponding mechanisms and could provide insight into the optimization of the stability and application of suitable Anthocyanins in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.

TL;DR: Ultraviolet absorption spectra and intrinsic fluorescence spectra suggested that wheat gluten unfolded during the heating process, and wheat gluten gels treated at 80 and 90°C exhibited a "steric hindrance" effect, which can be attributed to the formation of aggregation.

TL;DR: Strawberry fruits treated with melatonin exhibited higher γ-aminobutyric acid transaminase (GABA-T) enzyme activity which ensured sufficient ATP supplying leading to higher unsaturated/saturated fatty acids (unSFA/SFA) ratio.

TL;DR: Results showed that the interaction mechanism of β-LG with Phenolic acid esters was different from it with phenolic acids, and polyphenols had impact on the structure and functionality ofβ-LG, which would be valuable in dairy processing industry.

TL;DR: This manuscript is reporting the enzymatic routes and strategies followed for the generation of bioactive peptides in foods through proteolysis phenomena taking place during processing.

TL;DR: The purpose of the present review is to appraise the previous and current literature on the extraction, purification, structural characterization, and biological activities of jujube polysaccharides to provide a useful bibliography for the further investigation, production, and application of juJube poly Saccharides in functional foods and therapeutic agents.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that certain mushroom species are high in glutathione and ergothioneine and should be considered an excellent dietary source of these important antioxidants.

TL;DR: The main volatile compound in vinegar is acetic acid, which gives vinegar its strong, sour aroma and flavour, and other volatile compounds present in vinegars are mainly alcohols, acids, esters, aldehydes and ketones.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ultrasound processing increase the availability of carotenoids, total phenols and RAE in Cape gooseberry juice.

TL;DR: A nanobiosensor for detection of AFB1 in agricultural foods using a FRET-based method and selectivity test demonstrates that the nanobiosisensor could be a promising tool for specific evaluation of food stuff.

TL;DR: The results suggested that starch nanoparticles could be used as promising particulate emulsifiers to fulfill the demands of Pickering emulsions with stable characteristics.

TL;DR: Blueberry extracts had potent antiproliferative activities against HepG2 human liver cancer cells, indicating the potential protective benefits associated with their use as functional foods.

TL;DR: This article reviews the literature on the use of analytical techniques, mainly NMR spectroscopy, for authentication of honey, its botanical and geographical origin, and adulteration by sugar syrups between 2000 and 2016.

TL;DR: The ultrasound-assisted extraction of antioxidants from the flowers of Limonium sinuatum could give higher yield of antioxidants and markedly reduce the extraction time, and the antioxidant activities of UAE were compared with those of conventional maceration and Soxhlet extraction methods.

TL;DR: Various methods of crafting the starch-based encapsulation such as electrospinning, spray drying, antisolvent, amylose inclusion complexation, and nano-emulsification are introduced in this mini-review.

TL;DR: The agroindustrial potential of fish wastes, especially viscera, as a source for obtaining native protein and hydrolysates is reviewed, explaining their production process, chemical composition and functional and bioactive properties that are important to the agricultural, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, food and nutraceutical industry.
