Effect of Fermentation on the bioactive compound of cocoa Beans: a systematic review and meta-analysis approach
(2023-05-30)
Several studies have found the effect of cocoa bean fermentation on bioactive compounds through various fermentation characteristics; however, none of these studies adopted the meta-analysis approach. The effect of cocoa bean fermentation on six bioactive compounds: epicatechin, catechin, total phenolic content (TPC), anthocyanins, theobromine, and caffeine were systematically reviewed. This study aims to determine which variables that can affect the loss of bioactive compounds during fermentation so that their ...

Measuring the economic performance of smallholder organic maize farms; Implications for food safety and security
(2023-05-31)
The use of chemical inputs in conventional agriculture is associated with some health and environmental issues. This led to a call for more sustainable and environmentally friendly agriculture with no health issues. However, there is low participation in organic farming in Nigeria, which could be linked to less knowledge about its profitability. The study investigated smallholder organic maize farming profitability in Northern Nigeria. We employed descriptive statistics, profitability analysis, and a multiple regression ...

The effect of the addition of pineapple residue (Ananas comosus L.) on texture, physicochemical properties, and sensory acceptability of the plant-based minced meatball
(2023-05-14)
This study aims to develop plant-based meat alternatives with unique textures by adding pineapple residue at four different ratios (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20% w/w). The developed products' textures, sensory characteristics, nutritional values, and consumer acceptance were all assessed. The results showed that an increase in the pineapple residue content caused lightness (L*), redness (a*), as well as yellowness (b*) to increase. The textural properties of the plant-based minced meatballs in this study were relatively lower ...
