The antiradical capacity (radical-scavenging capacity, RSC) of seven tropical fruit from the Brazilian north-east (acai, acerola, cashew apple, mangaba, murici, umbu and uvaia) were studied using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH center dot ) assay. To determine their RSC, the second-order rate constants k(2)) for the oxidation of these extracts by DPPH center dot were calculated. The values of k(2) were compared to natural and synthetic antioxidants. The k(2) values (1/mol g s), in methanol at 25 degrees C, were 38.0, 29.7, 21.3. 20.1. 10.1. 9.54 and 5.47 for acerola, cashew apple, mangaba, umbu, acai, uvaia and murici, respectively.

Effects of multiple-step cold plasma processing on banana (Musa sapientum) starch-based films

Gerald A. Marenco-Orozco, Morsyleide F. Rosa, Fabiano A. N. Fernandes

Summary: In recent years, research has been conducted on films made from biodegradable materials to improve their physical properties, mechanical strength, and hydrophobicity. This study specifically focused on banana starch-based films and their production process using cold plasma treatment. The results showed that plasma-treated films had better crystalline/amorphous ratio and improved surface properties compared to untreated films. Films produced with treated starch granules and filmogenic suspension had the lowest moisture and solubility values, while films produced with plasma-treated starch granules and subjected to plasma treatment had the highest water contact angle, tensile strength, and puncture resistance, making them the most hydrophobic and mechanically strong among the tested films.

Summary: Anthocyanins obtained from jambolan have been used in different carboxymethyl starch-based tablet formulations, with their release profiles evaluated in simulated gastric fluids and simulated intestinal fluids. The interaction between anthocyanins and carboxymethyl starch was found to be strong, and tablet dissolution behavior varied according to the pH of the media. Monolithic carboxymethyl starch tablets loaded with powdered jambolan extract efficiently delivered anthocyanins to different sites of the simulated gastrointestinal tract and maintained their antioxidant activity.

The digestion fates of lipids with different unsaturated levels in people with different age groups

Yanan Wang, Jiachen Shi, Yong-Jiang Xu, Chin-Ping Tan, Yuanfa Liu

Summary: This study investigates the variations in lipid digestion profiles among individuals of different ages using in vitro digestion models. The findings suggest that adults have a more comprehensive lipid digestion compared to infants, and infants tend to release shorter chain length and more saturated free fatty acids during digestion. Additionally, the particle sizes in the stomach of the elderly were consistently larger. This study enhances our understanding of how lipids with different degrees of unsaturation undergo digestion in diverse age groups.

Mechanism of aroma enhancement methods in accelerating Congou black tea acidification subjected to room temperature storage

Zixuan Xie, De Zhang, Junyu Zhu, Qianqian Luo, Jun Liu, Jingtao Zhou, Xiaoyong Wang, Yuqiong Chen, Zhi Yu, Dejiang Ni

Summary: This study investigated the acidification of aroma-enhanced black tea during storage. Analysis of non-volatile substances and organic acids using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS and HPLC revealed a decrease in soluble sugars and amino acids, while an increase in organic acids such as oxalic acid, malic acid, and quinic acid. In vitro experiments further demonstrated that the acidification is a result of the decomposition of sugars and amino acids by heating, as well as the oxidation of aromatic aldehydes. Additionally, the study showed that the taste composition of tea infusion is altered, with reduced amino acids, catechins, soluble sugars, and flavonoids. This research provides a theoretical basis for improving the quality of black tea.
