Use of stevia and chia seeds for the formulation of traditional and vegan artisanal ice cream

2021

Abstract Gelato is the name of the Italian-style artisanal ice cream, a nutritious product widely consumed in different parts of the world. Due to the high content in simple sugars, ice cream should be consumed moderately by diabetic patient. This research aimed to create artisanal ice cream, using Stevia rebaudiana, a plant well known for its sweet taste and its hypoglycemic effect. Traditional and vegan ice cream were formulated using stevia and chia seeds, in order to obtain products with appreciable rheological, textural and sensorial properties. Physical and sensorial properties of the ice cream formulation containing milk protein (traditional) or vegan substitute, were evaluated. Resu…

Virus entéricos humanos en alimentos: detección y métodos de inactivación

2020

[ES] Los principales patógenos víricos que podemos adquirir ingiriendo alimentos contaminados son los norovirus, el virus de la hepatitis A y el virus de la hepatitis E que se propagan principalmente a través de la vía fecal oral. En los últimos años, la incidencia de brotes de transmisión alimentaria causados por estos patógenos ha experimentado un aumento considerable, en parte debido al comercio globalizado y a los cambios en los hábitos de consumo. Las matrices alimentarias que mayor riesgo representan para el consumidor son los moluscos bivalvos, vegetales de IV gama, frutas tipo baya y platos listos para comer. Actualmente las técnicas moleculares son las más habituales para la detecc…

Tipología y patrones de los bulos difundidos durante la pandemia de la covid-19 sobre salud y nutrición

2022

This study aims to identify the typology and patterns of hoaxes related to health and nutrition disseminated during the first stage of the COVID-19 pandemic (March-November 2020). To do this, an exploratory quantitative study was carried out with two data types. The first data comes from studying 95 documents (scientific articles) found in the SCOPUS database through Boolean searches with the terms (dis)misinformation, hoax, health, and nutrition. A registration form was used for these documents, indicating the following items: a) topic of the article (health or nutrition); b) the type of wrong message (misinformation or hoax); c) the country in which the study was done; d) the type of part…

Use of concentrated fruit juice extracts to improve the antioxidant properties in a soft drink formulation

2023

Three juices obtained respectively from pomegranate, prickly pear and orange fruit were separately concentrated using an innovative technique, that allow to obtain a final product with high content of bioactive compounds and elevate antioxidant activity. The concentrated juices were employed in the formulation of a soft drink to improve its bioactive properties. Despite a low amount of each concentrated juice was used, the experimental soft drink obtained evidenced a high content of total polyphenols. The antioxidant activity detected was similar to that of tea commonly considered a healthy beverage with strong radical scavenging activity. The sensory analysis of the soft drink showed a con…

Seguridad Alimentaria

2007

El trabajo analiza el ámbito competencial autonómico en la Comunidad Valenciana en el terreno de la policía de alimentos tras la aprobación del nuevo Estatuto de Autonomía. Los objetivos de seguridad alimentaria, información a los consumidores, control de productos, secuestros y retirada, trazabilidad, etc. son estudiados teniendo en cuenta su interacción con competencias estatales y comunitarias en esta misma materia

CONTROLLO GLICOMETABOLICO E ABITUDINI ALIMENTARI IN ADOLESCENTI CON DIABETE MELLITO TIPO 1

2011

Background: Gli studi che hanno valutato le abitudini alimentari dei bambini e adolescenti con diabete, hanno riportato una percentuale di assunzione di carboidrati più bassa di quella minima raccomandata spesso associata ad un maggiore consumo di grassi e ad una ridotta assunzione di fibre . Alcuni studi che hanno valutato il rapporto tra composizione della dieta e controllo glicometabolico in soggetti con diabete tipo 1, hanno evidenziato che una dieta ricca di grassi e povera di fibre è associata ad un peggior controllo glicometabolico. Obiettivo: Valutare in adolescenti affetti da diabete mellito tipo 1, con diverso grado di controllo metabolico, la frequenza di consumo settimanale dei …

Codominance of Lactobacillus plantarum and obligate heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria during sourdough fermentation

2015

Fifteen sourdoughs produced in western Sicily (southern Italy) were analysed by classical methods for their chemico-physical characteristics and the levels of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). pH and total titratable acidity (TTA) were mostly in the range commonly reported for similar products produced in Italy, but the fermentation quotient (FQ) of the majority of samples was above 4.0, due to the low concentration of acetic acid estimated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Specific counts of LAB showed levels higher than 10(8) CFU g(-1) for many samples. The colonies representing various morphologies were isolated and, after the differentiation based on phenotypic characteristics…

Molecular analysis of the dominant lactic acid bacteria of chickpea liquid starters and doughs and propagation of chickpea sourdoughs with selected W…

2020

Abstract Fermented chickpea liquid is used as a leavening agent in chickpea bread production. In the present study, traditional chickpea liquid starter and dough samples were collected from bakeries in Turkey and microbiologically investigated. Culture-independent analysis for microbiota diversity, performed by MiSeq Illumina, identified Clostridium perfringens as major group in all samples, while Weissella spp. Dominated LAB community. A culture-dependent methodology was applied and 141 isolates were confirmed to be members of the LAB group based on 16s rRNA gene sequence analysis. In particular, 11 different LAB species were identified confirming the high frequency of isolation of weissel…

The spatial distribution of bacteria in Grana-cheese during ripening.

2012

The microbial composition and its spatial distribution of Grana Trentino, a hard Parmesan-like cheese, was determined, from vat milk to cheese. After cutting along the vertical axis of the cheese wheels, three layers were sampled diagonally across the cheese: under the cheese rind, an intermediate section and the cheese core. After two different ripening periods (9 and 18 months), the cheese samples were analysed using traditional culture dependent and culture independent methods. Milk samples were dominated by mesophilic and psychrophilic bacterial counts. Thermophilic bacteria (Lactobacillus helveticus) were found in high amounts in cooked whey and natural whey starter cultures. After 9 m…
