Persistence of a mixed lactic acid bacterial starter culture during lysine fortification of sourdough breads by addition of pistachio powder
2020
Abstract Pistachio powder was added to flour or semolina to evaluate its contribution to increase the amount of lysine in bread. Bread production was carried out by sourdough technology using a selected 3-species (Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis/Leuconostoc citreum/Weissella cibaria) lactic acid bacterial (LAB) starter culture. All sourdoughs were subjected to a long-time fermentation (21 h) and showed levels of LAB around 109 CFU/g, indicating the suitability of pistachio powder for lactic fermentation. Yeasts were also detected, in particular in semolina trials. MiSeq Illumina technology was applied to investigate the bacterial composition of sourdoughs evidencing a different distribution …
Applications of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for food analysis.
2012
Abstract HPLC–MS applications in the agrifood sector are among the fastest developing fields in science and industry. The present tutorial mini-review briefly describes this analytical methodology: HPLC, UHPLC, nano-HPLC on one hand, mass spectrometry (MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) on the other hand. Analytical results are grouped together based on the type of chemicals analyzed (lipids, carbohydrates, glycoproteins, vitamins, flavonoids, mycotoxins, pesticides, allergens and food additives). Results are also shown for various types of food (ham, cheese, milk, cereals, olive oil and wines). Although it is not an exhaustive list, it illustrates the main current directions of appli…
Additive manufacturing, new elaboration technique of metallic materials : impact of the microstructure on high temperature durability of AISI 316L st…
2021
Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes are able to elaborate, in a single step, metallic parts with very complex geometry, as close as possible to their final dimensions, based on 3D CAD model. Despite a very large number of studies on AM parameters, very few studies report on the high temperature behavior of the metallic materials produced by these processes. This thesis work evaluates the impact of the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) process on the high temperature durability of the austenitic stainless steel AISI 316L, commercial grade widely used in the industry. For this purpose, the reactivity of SLM samples was studied in different conditions (atmosphere, temperature, isothermal or cycl…
Emerging opportunities for the effective valorization of wastes and by-products generated during olive oil production process: Non-conventional metho…
2015
Abstract Background A large amount of wastes and by-products are generated during olive oil production process. Traditionally, these products have been considered as a problem. However, they constitute a great source of high-added value compounds, which have the potential to be used as food additives and/or nutraceuticals. Therefore, valorization of wastes and by-products from food industry kills two birds with one stone and addresses both the use of waste and by-products and societal health, thus greatly contributing for a sustainable food chain from an environmental and economical point of view. Scope and approach In the present review, current and new insights in the recovery of high-add…
Conception basée sur les origamis pour l'impression 4D de structures déployables
2020
Deployable structures can be deformed between the different configurations through predetermined mechanisms, showing the great potential in many engineering applications. However, their exquisite and intricate mechanisms also bring a great difficulty to the design of its structure. With the growing 4D printing efforts, its self-transforming characteristics under external stimuli provide new possibilities for deploying complex and challenging driving structures. Furthermore, origami-based engineering has provided tremendous technical support for structural conversion, especially from 2D to 3D states, leading to many design studies based on origami-inspired deployable structures. However, the…
Qualitative screening of 116 veterinary drugs in feed by liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry: potential application to quantitati…
2014
Abstract Veterinarian and human pharmaceuticals may be intentionally added to animal feed to enhance animal production. Monitoring these substances is necessary for protecting the consumers. In this work, a screening method covering 116 human and veterinary drugs has been developed and validated in five types of animal feed at 0.02 and 0.2 mg kg−1. After a simple extraction and dilution, the samples were analysed by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QTOF MS). Nearly all compounds tested were detected at 0.02 mg kg−1, based on the presence of the accurate-mass (de)protonated molecule. However, the identification using a…
Hedysarum coronarium-Based Green Composites Prepared by Compression Molding and Fused Deposition Modeling
2022
In this work, an innovative green composite was produced by adding Hedysarum coronarium (HC) flour to a starch-based biodegradable polymer (Mater-Bi®, MB). The flour was obtained by grinding together stems, leaves and flowers and subsequently sieving it, selecting a fraction from 75 μm to 300 μm. Four formulations have been produced by compression molding (CM) and fused deposition modeling (FDM) by adding 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% of HC to MB. The influence of filler content on the processability was tested, and rheological, morphological and mechanical properties of composites were also assessed. Through CM, it was possible to obtain easily homogeneous samples with all filler amounts.…
Influence of alginate emulsion-based films structure on its barrier properties and on the protection of microencapsulated aroma compound
2009
In recent years the use of natural polymers coming from renewable sources has greatly increased due to the over-solid packaging waste and dwindling petroleum reserves. Biopolymer films, which contain both lipid and polysaccharide ingredients to form complex packaging enable us to obtain edible films with good mechanical and water barrier properties as emulsified alginate edible films. Moreover, these can be considered to encapsulate active molecules as flavours. The aim of this work is to better understand the influence of the composition and the structure of the film matrix on its barrier properties and thus on its capacity to protect encapsulated active substances. Granulometry, Different…
La linguistica vista dalle Alpi. Teoria, lessicografia e multilinguismo
2019
Il volume raccoglie contributi che hanno come principale tema di ricerca la multiforme realtà linguistica dell’ambiente alpino. Essi indagano fenomeni linguistici di lingue standard e di minoranza appartenenti ai gruppi romanzo e germanico. Il libro si compone di quatto sezioni: modelli teorici, valenza e lessicografia, linguistica delle varietà e multilinguismo e le lingue nel Trentino-Alto Adige. The contributions of this book deal with the diverse linguistic situation of the Alps by focusing on phenomena of standard and minority languages which belong to the Romance and Germanic group. They address four main topics which correspond to the four sections of the book: linguistic theory, val…
Production, oxidation traits and health of dairy ewes fed diets supplemented with fungus myceliated grains.
2019
Mushrooms contain many bioactive compounds, mainly poly- and oligosaccharides, known to have benefits for human health. Polysaccharides from mushrooms exhibited immunomodulatory, antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties, as well as antitumor activity. Furthermore, some mushrooms showed to have potent antioxidant properties due to the presence of phenolic acids, flavonoids, polysaccharides, carotenoids, ascorbic acid, and tocopherols. These beneficial properties of mushrooms bioactive compounds indicate their potential use as performance-enhancing natural feed additives for livestock animals. In this regard, the use of mushrooms and mushroom-derived products has largely been inves…
