Taste masking in vegan food processing with natural substitutes
(2022-12-29)
Climate change, sustainability issues, increased risks of meat diet on both ecology and human health cause changes in the eating habits of individuals. Plant-based foods supply protein sources with health-promoting compounds. The bitterness of plant-based foods is a challenge for both food manufacturers and consumers. So far, artificial taste blockers, salt, sugar, and fat have been applied to mask the bitterness of plant-based products. However, people are conscious of "clean labelling " and "natural " ingredients ...

The potential of cabbage waste extract as a bio-stimulant for enhancing growth, biochemical constituents, and oil quality of thyme (Thymus vulgaris)
(2022-12-29)
Thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) is an important cultural aromatic plant, whose herb and essential oils (EOs) have been used in many industrial and medicinal applications. Herb and EO yields are often negatively influenced by various factors, so it is important to keep finding new growing procedures that increase the quantitative content of herbs and EOs. Therefore, this paper is focused on the effects of applying cabbage extract (CE) at different concentrations on morphological parameters, mineral contents, total ...

Physiological response of some canola genotypes to proline concentration under saltwater irrigation conditions
(2022-12-29)
A pot experiment was conducted in split-split plot design with four replications to study proline foliar application with 0, 50, and 100 ppm and four canola genotypes cultivated under irrigation of tap water and salinity irrigation water at 4500 ppm and their interactive effects on growth characters, yield, and yield components and some chemical composition of the canola plants. Results indicated that a higher salinity level at 4500 ppm reduced growth, photosynthetic pigments, yield, and yield attributes as well as ...

The effects of weather factors on titrating acids accumulation in sweet cherry fruits
(2022-12-29)
During the fruit formation, the weather conditions have a decisive influence on the organic acids accumulation. In the context of global climate change, this issue has become new. The study of the titrated acids content in sweet cherry fruits was carried out for 12 years. Cherry fruits of three ripening groups were selected for the study. The average and strong correlation dependence between 11 weather factors and the titrated acids content for the sweet cherries varieties of early, middle, late ripening periods were ...

The effect of transglutaminase on physicochemical, microstructural, and organoleptic properties of low fat karish cheese
(2022-04-15)
Karish cheese is considered to be one of the most traditional Egyptian cheeses. It is manufactured from low-fat milk. It can be a key part of a healthy diet, especially for the elderly and those suffering from obesity-related illnesses. Low-fat cheese such as karish cheese has the problem of crumbly texture characteristics, which is the main problem for cheesemakers. This research aimed to improve the texture of karish cheese using transglutaminase (TGase), and to study the effects on cheese physical, microstructural, ...

The potential of red kidney beans and brown rice-based flakes for breakfast to reduce obesity
(2022-02-15)
Obesity has become one of the world's most important public health issues. This research aimed to produce healthy breakfast flakes made from red beans flour and brown rice flour to reduce obesity. Determination of the selected flakes product based on the hedonic test result which includes four formulas (F1, F2, F3, F4) with five attributes. Based on the results of the analysis of organoleptic data, formula F4 had the highest hedonic score, and there were significant differences in the attributes of taste, and texture ...

Impact of organic manuring on soil carbon sequestration under monoculture and perennial systems in tropical rainforest of Nigeria
(2022-02-15)
Organic carbon is a major indicator of soil health, which can contribute to a sustainable agroecosystem. In Africa, mismanagement of agricultural soils has depleted the organic carbon pool. The decline in soil organic carbon has important implications for food security and environmental sustainability. This study examined the impact of monoculture and perennial systems on soil carbon sequestration after fifteen years of cropping in a tropical rainforest of Nigeria. Agronomic management in the monocultures of maize ...
