Viscoelastic properties of durum wheat doughs enriched with soluble dietary fibres in relation to pasta-making performance and glycaemic response of spaghetti
(Elsevier, 2020-05)
Pasta is a starchy staple food, which is a good carrier of health-promoting ingredients that can manipulate the glycaemic response. Dry pastas supplemented with DFs were produced substituting durum wheat semolina with ...
Effects of selected resveratrol analogues on activation and polarization of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BV-2 microglial cells
(ACS Publications, 2020-03-25)
Increasing health-promoting effects of resveratrol and its molecular structural analogues have been discovered, and the acting mechanism has been explored. However, the activity comparison of such compounds in targeting ...

(Elsevier Ltd., 2020-10-28)
© 2020 Elsevier Ltd The peptides Asp-Tyr-Asp-Asp (DYDD) and Asp-Asp-Asp-Tyr (DDDY) extracted from Dendrobium aphyllum have antimicrobial effects on Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Monilia albicans, but no ...
Fabrication and assessment of milk phospholipid-complexed antioxidant phytosomes with vitamin C and E: A comparison with liposomes
(Elsevier, 2020-09-15)
Evidences have shown that phytosome assemblies are novel drug delivery system. However, studies of phytosomes in food applications are scarce. The characteristics of milk phospholipid assemblies and their functionality in ...
Manipulating effects of fruits and vegetables on gut microbiota – a critical review
(Wiley on behalf of Institute of Food Science and Technology, 2020-12-14)
The objective of the current review was to systematically investigate health-promoting manipulating effects of fruits and vegetables (F&V) on the gut microbiota. The function of gut microbes was found to promote health ...

(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020-01-08)
The ethanol fermentation efficiency was affected by multiple stress tolerance of yeast during brewing and bioethanol industry. The effect of KCl on the multiple stress tolerance of yeast cells was examined.Results showed ...
Detection of nitrite degradation by Lactobacillus plantarum DMDL9010 through the anaerobic respiration electron transport chain using proteomic analysis
(Wiley on behalf of Institute of Food Science and Technology, 2020-09-01)
This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of nitrite degradation by Lactobacillus plantarum DMDL9010 using the proteomic technology. The results showed that 0.276 g L‾¹ nitrite was degraded completely by L. plantarum ...
The effect of wounding intensities on vitamins and antioxidant enhancement in potato products
(Institute of Food Science and Technology, 2020-10-16)
The effect of wounding intensity on vitamins and antioxidant activities from potato were evaluated. Potatoes were submitted to five levels of wounding intensity (A/W) including the whole peeled potato (CK), slices, pies, ...
Characterisation of antibacterial peptide fractions extracted from pomelo nucleus co-incubated with Lactobacillus
(Wiley on behalf of the Institute of Food Science and Technology, 2020-01-03)
Pomelo have been widely reported for its unique flavour and high nutritive value, whereas the antibacterial activity of pomelo nucleus peptides was still poorly understood. We characterised a co‐incubation system of pomelo ...
