Decontamination of Pineapple (Ananas comosus) juice using Ozone as a Non-thermal Sterilization method
(2021-12-15)
Ozone is a non thermal preservation technology used for enhancing shelf life and the safety of the food products. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of gaseous ozone on microbial decontamination and on some physicochemical characteristics (soluble solids content, pH, titratable acidity and color), bioactive compounds and total antioxidant activity of Pineapple juice. Ozone treatments were applied for Pineapple juice at 4 different exposure times as 15 mins, 30 mins, 45 mins and 60 mins at 250C and ...

Innovative formulation of oleogels using bioactive compounds and sal starch and characterization of their products
(2022-02-15)
There is a focus on oleogels nowadays with low saturated fatty acids and zero trans fatty acids to substitute solid fats in various food formulations. The other advantage of using oleogels that it can retain the health benefits of the individual oils especially the micronutrients as the processing does not involve high temperature. The present study used a blend of rice bran oil and sesame oil, both the oils are rich in micronutrients, together with starch obtained from sal meal and lecithin as gelling agent to ...

Antioxidant activity of a mixture of water-soluble tempeh extract with whey powder that has undergone a Maillard reaction
(2021-12-20)
High amino acid content in tempeh and lactose in whey powder can be combined to perform Maillard reaction. So, it can be used to produce functional food products. This is caused by the formation of Amadori and melanoidin as water-soluble compounds which are reported to have high antioxidant capacity and produce a preferred flavor. The general objective of the study was to obtain an optimum process condition in a mixture of water soluble tempeh extract and whey powder with the highest antioxidant capacity (100 mL). ...

Preliminary assesment on drought tolerant oil palm in semi-arid area
(2021-12-15)
The evaluation of oil palm growth performance and their corresponding effect on drought very crucial in selection of proper parent’s tree. The parent palm that showed drought tolerance and have less effect on oil yield is important for optimisation semi-arid lands usage in future. The Split plot with two replications in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) were conducted and mixed stand with an adjacent control plot. All 19 progenies was evaluated and interaction effects are estimated using split plots analysis. ...

Climate-smart agriculture policy and (in)justice for smallholders in developing countries
(Section Specialized Partnerships in Sustainable Food Systems and Food Sovereignty at the University of Kassel, Germany and Federation of German Scientists (VDW), 2019-06-05)
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations developed the term Climate-Smart Agriculture as an approach to transform agricultural systems to support development and ensure food security in a changing climate. This paper analyses whether climate-smart agriculture policy meets the demands of climate justice and respects the rights of smallholders; and if not, how it could be amended. The study is based on a literature review supplemented by four interviews with climate-smart agriculture actors from ...

Ultrasound treatment (low frequency) effects on probiotic bacteria growth in fermented milk
(Section Specialized Partnerships in Sustainable Food Systems and Food Sovereignty at the University of Kassel, Germany and Federation of German Scientists (VDW), 2019-09-04)
The effect of ultrasonic treatment at 40 kHz for 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 minutes on the growth of five different strains of probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-5, Lactobacillus casei LC, Lactobacillus reuteri LR-MM53, Bifidobacterium bifidum Bb-12 and Bifidobacterium loungm BB-536) in fermented milk was investigated. The study findings indicate that ultrasound treatment (10 minutes) increased the viable cells and total acidity for LA-5, LC and LR-MM53 samples but decreased viable cells and total acidity in ...

Structural modelling of rice fields-buffalo livestock based integrated agricultural systems in the context of regional development in Humbang Hasundutan, Indonesia
(Section Specialized Partnerships in Sustainable Food Systems and Food Sovereignty at the University of Kassel, Germany and Federation of German Scientists (VDW), 2019-11-30)
This study analyses the influence of external and internal agriculture conditions on rice fields-buffalo livestock-based integrated agricultural systems in the context of regional development in the Humbang Hasundutan District. The method of analyzing data in research is structural equation modeling (SEM) with IBM SPSS® Amos 22 device. The results indicate that both external and internal agricultural conditions have a significant, positive influence on both rice field-buffalo livestock integrated agricultural systems ...

Food suggestions, meal frequency and dietary diversity among pregnant women: a quantitative study
(2020-10-18)
During pregnancy, nutritional requirement increases. Therefore, many nutritious foods (diverse food groups) are suggested for pregnant. This study aimed to explore the association between food suggestion and meal frequency with dietary diversity among pregnant women. This research was a cross sectional study conducted in 2017 at Sumenep Regency in the Eastern Madura Island, East Java Province, Indonesia. There were 282 pregnant women involved in this study. Coefficient contingency were done to analyze the association ...

Lesson learnt from Smart Rice Actions in Indonesia
(Section Specialized Partnerships in Sustainable Food Systems and Food Sovereignty at the University of Kassel, Germany and Federation of German Scientists (VDW), 2018-12-26)
Smart Rice (SR) actions are innovative farming practices derived from climate smart agriculture (CSA) concepts and are directed to comply with mitigation and adaptation strategies to climate change. This study provided information about the plausible implementation of SR actions in Indonesia based on literature reviews and stakeholders’ consultation with key informants work- ing on crop management and climate information. The SR actions recommendations are a set of farming practices applied to fulfill the needs of ...

Carbon footprint for wheat and corn under Egyptian condition
(Section Specialized Partnerships in Sustainable Food Systems and Food Sovereignty at the University of Kassel, Germany and Federation of German Scientists (VDW), 2018-12-26)
Egypt agriculture is facing a great joint challenge of ensuring food security and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions under climate change. Characterizing the carbon footprints of crop production by life cycle analysis is be critical for identifying the key measures to mitigate greenhouse gas emission while sustaining crop productivity in the near future. Agriculture contributes a significant share of greenhouse gas emissions and concurrently represents a carbon dioxide (CO2) sink; it thus has two fold opposing impacts ...
