Summary: In the current era, it is important to consider economic and ecological sustainability while meeting the nutrient needs of poultry. This study aimed to investigate the nutrient composition of raw lupin seeds as an alternative feedstuff and the effects of debittering methods. The results showed that the methods applied for debittering gave promising results in terms of nutrient compositions and quinolizidine alkaloid levels in lupin seeds.

Summary: Research on Mucuna pruriens seeds, an underutilized legume, showed that single and combined treatments were not effective in reducing the content of phenol and L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine to the recommended safe limits, except for the double treatment of 72 h fermentation +15 min roasting, which successfully reduced L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine to the safe limit.

Summary: Germinated brown rice, when roasted, showed significant increases in reducing sugars, free amino acids, volatile compounds, and phenolics. Germinated brown rice was more susceptible to roasting compared to native brown rice, resulting in a lower acrylamide content in the roasted product. The appropriate conditions for producing a brown rice tea were found to be mild roasting for 5 minutes at 230 degrees Celsius after germination for 2 days.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the content of volatile compounds and antioxidant potential of wheat beverage at different stages of preparation. The results showed that roasted-steamed germinated wheat (RSGW) had the highest levels of bioactive components and phenolic acids. The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) revealed similar band positions for all samples, while the principal component analysis indicated that RSGW had the greatest bioavailability and highest abundance of volatiles and phenolic compounds.

Summary: A total of 336 boneless pork neck samples were cooked and analyzed. The pH values of ground whole neck ranged from 5.9 to 6.8. Cooking losses varied depending on the cooking method for both whole cuts and slices, but salt concentration only affected the cooking losses in slices. Roasting in a convection oven was found to be the best cooking method for whole cuts, resulting in the highest tenderness, aroma, overall impression scores, and lowest Warner-Bratzler shear force values. However, adding salt to ground meat reduced the cooking loss in contrast to pork neck slices.

Summary: Germinated pulse-based food is a traditional process and a growing trend in healthy foods. This review examines the physiological and biochemical changes during the germination process in pulses, taking into account various factors that affect their nutritional value, and evaluates the impact of food processing on the nutritional and antinutritional components.

Summary: In this study, the nutritional changes of abalone under different cooking methods (steaming, boiling, and frying) were evaluated using in vitro gastric digestion simulation. The results showed that boiling preserved more amino acids and fatty acids compared to steaming and frying, making it the recommended cooking method for abalone. The study also found that abalone remained fresh for one day at 4 degrees Celsius, after which deterioration occurred. These findings provide scientific recommendations for cooking and storing abalone for healthy eating.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of domestic cooking and in vitro digestion on the stability and release of phenolic compounds from yellow-skinned and red-skinned onions. It was found that red-skinned onions contain almost double the amount of phenolic compounds compared to yellow-skinned onions. Baking, grilling, and frying increased the amount of total phenolic compounds in both onion varieties, particularly quercetin-derivatives.

Summary: This study systematically compared the effects of different pretreatment and processing technologies on the quality of walnut oil. The results showed that roasting pretreatment reduced the lipid yield, while subcritical butane extraction had the highest yield and antioxidant ability. The processing technology had a greater impact on walnut oil than pretreatment technology.

Summary: Four different types of rice products, including cooked brown rice, germinated brown rice, fermented brown rice, and white rice, were prepared using traditional cooking techniques and extrusion processing technology. The processed brown rice products had significantly higher levels of soluble dietary fiber, free total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, and antioxidant capacity compared to cooked brown rice and white rice. Extruded brown rice showed the highest increase in these values. Cooked fermented brown rice and extruded brown rice had more nutrients, required less cooking time, had a softer texture, and were whiter than cooked germinated brown rice and brown rice. Water absorption rate and hardness were also improved in extruded brown rice. The flavor compounds in extruded brown rice were similar to that of cooked white rice. Overall, cooked fermented brown rice and extruded brown rice had better nutritional value, cooking, and sensory properties, with extruded brown rice being the most comprehensive.

Summary: The oxidative stability of pretreated full-fat soybean flour (FFSF) was evaluated under commercial and accelerated conditions, revealing that germination and soaking reduce oxidation while roasting promotes it. Increasing the levels of pretreated FFSF in Tuo Zaafi resulted in lower consumer preference scores for all sensory attributes.

Summary: The long cooking time of beans is a major issue limiting their utilization, and it is necessary to carefully consider the choice of processing conditions to retain nutrients while achieving palatability. In order to harness the full potential of beans, a multisectoral collaboration between breeders, processors, and nutritionists is necessary.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of germination on the nutritional composition, physicochemical properties, functional properties, thermal properties, and color characteristics of pigeon pea. The results showed that germination significantly increased protein, dietary fiber, and antioxidant activities, while decreasing phytic acid, tannin, and trypsin inhibitor activity. The study suggests that short-term germination can be a natural approach to enhance the functional properties of pigeon pea flour for use in the food industry.
