Die Bedeutung der Topinambur für die Ernährung des Menschen
1950
Das Topinambur als Gemuse in kleinen Mengen verzehrt werden kann, ist bekannt. Auch bei grosen Mengen von Topinambur, anstelle von Kartoffeln gegeben, ist die Ausnutzung im allgemeinen gut. Vereinzelt kann jedoch auch schlechte Ausnutzung beobachtet werden. Die Allgemeinerscheinungen, die nach dem Genus groser Mengen Topinambur beobachtet werden, lassen zunachst einen Genus von Topinambur in grosen Mengen nicht empfehlenswert erscheinen. Es soll versucht werden zu klaren, welche Bestandteile der Topinambur fur die mangelhafte Vertraglichkeit verantwortlich sind und ob durch geeignete Vorbehandlung eine Verbesserung zu erzielen ist, die auch den Genus von grosen Mengen zulast, ohne zu irgend…
What Is the Color of Milk and Dairy Products and How Is It Measured?
2020
Exactly six-hundred (600) scientific articles that report milk and milk products’ color results in scientific journals in the last couple of decades were reviewed. Thereof, the greatest part of the articles derived from Europe (36.3%) and Asia (29.5%). The greatest share of researchers used Minolta colorimeters (58.8%), while 26.3% of them used Hunter devices. Most reports were on cheese (31.0%) followed by fermented products (21.2%). Moreover, the highest number of papers reported color data of milk and milk products made from cow’s milk (44.81%). As expected, goat’s cheese was the brightest (L* = 87.1), while cow’s cheese was the yellowest (b* = 17.4). Most importantly, it appeared that c…
Enhancing Bioactive Antioxidants’ Extraction from “Horchata de Chufa” By-Products
2018
During the production of a traditional drink produced from the tubers of Cyperus esculentus L. also known as “horchata de chufa,” a high quantity of by-products are generated. These by-products are rich with valuable biological compounds, hence, there is a need to report their extraction conditions for further use in food production as raw materials. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate and improve the conventional extraction process, applied for recovery of phenolic compounds, total flavonoids, and total antioxidant capacity from the by-products. Independent variables for extraction were: (i) Solvent type (mixtures of ethanol-water (v/v) at 0%, 25% and 50%)
Revalorization of Almond By-Products for the Design of Novel Functional Foods: An Updated Review
2021
The search for waste minimization and the valorization of by-products are key to good management and improved sustainability in the food industry. The great production of almonds, based on their high nutritional value as food, especially almond kernels, generates tons of waste yearly. The remaining parts (skin, shell, hulls, etc.) are still little explored, even though they have been used as fuel by burning or as livestock feed. The interest in these by-products has been increasing, as they possess beneficial properties, caused by the presence of different bioactive compounds, and can be used as promising sources of new ingredients for the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry. Additio…
The role of freshwater copepods in the environmental risk assessment of caffeine and propranolol mixtures in the surface water bodies of Spain
2019
In this study we aimed at assessing: (i) the environmental risk posed by mixtures of caffeine and propranolol to the freshwater ecosystems of Spain; (ii) the sensitivity of freshwater copepod species to the two compounds; (iii) if the toxicity of caffeine and propranolol to freshwater copepods contributes to the environmental risk posed by the two compounds in the freshwater bodies of Spain. The environmental risk was computed as the ratio of MECs (i.e. the measured environmental concentrations) to PNECs (i.e. the respective predicted no-effect concentrations). The effects of caffeine and propranolol on the freshwater cyclopoid Diacyclops crassicaudis crassicaudis were tested both individua…
Hepatitis Virus Reactivation in Patients with Psoriasis Treated with Secukinumab in a Real-World Setting of Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C Infection
2022
Background and Objective Biologics for psoriasis, especially anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha therapies, may reactivate hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections, as well in inactive carriers or patients with occult infection. However, some biologics, including anti-interleukin-17 therapies such as secukinumab, seem to be less likely to cause hepatitis reactivation. This study assessed the safety of secukinumab treatment in patients with psoriasis with HBV or HBC infection. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis treated with secukinumab at seven Italian centers. Patients serologically positive for one or more of the fo…

Comparing the effects of thermal and non-thermal technologies on pomegranate juice quality: A review.
2019
The consumption of pomegranate juice (PJ) has increased substantially since scientific literature reported its therapeutic benefits that are attributable to antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-carcinogenic, and anti- inflammatory properties. The growing consumer demands for fresh and high-quality food products have led to the interest in non- thermal technologies for preservation of fruit juices. Although thermal pasteurization is the most widely used preservation technology, it has adverse effects on the nutritional and sensory quality of juices. Conversely, non- thermal technologies are suitable alternatives for preservation and without negative effects on the quality. However, there is limi…
Deficiency of Vitamin C in Dairy Products and Supplementation in Milk by Adding the Bioactive Natural Products
2011
Since milk constitutes an important item in the human diet and since the importance of an adequate amount of vitamin C in the diet is becoming more fully appreciated, it appeared to us that any investigation that might yield further information as to how milks containing greater quantities of this dietary essential might be produced would be worth while. Sea buckthorn is a natural multi-vitamins and a major source of vitamin C, fruits containing vitamin C at a rate of two times more than rosehips and ten times more than citrus (200-1500 mg). Strengthening with Vitamin C will be considering of content of vitamin C in milk samples taken per season (winter, spring, summer, autumn). This contri…
