Hybrid sausages: modelling the effect of partial meat replacement with broccoli, upcycled brewer's spent grain and insect flours
(MDPI, 2022)The social, environmental and health concerns associated with the massive consumption of meat products has resulted in calls for a reduction in meat consumption. A simplex lattice design was used for studying the effect ... -
Firmness and cell wall changes during maturation of ‘Arbequina’ olive fruit: the impact of irrigation
(MDPI, 2022)The olive tree (Olea europaea L.) has been cultivated around the Mediterranean basin since ancient times, ‘Arbequina’ being one of the most widely grown varieties. To improve the knowledge on ripening-related firmness ... -
Physicochemical properties and bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds of dietary fibre concentrates from vegetable by-products
(MDPI, 2022)The agro-food industry generates a large volume of by-products, whose revaluation is essential for the circular economy. From these by-products, dietary fibre concentrates (DFCs) can be obtained. Therefore, the objective ... -
Polyphenol Intake in Pregnant Women on Gestational Diabetes Risk and Neurodevelopmental Disorders in Offspring: A Systematic Review
(MDPI, 2022)The intake of foods containing polyphenols can have a protective role to avoid comorbidities during pregnancy and, at the same time, promote transgenerational health. This review aims to describe the effect of polyphenol ... -
Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) Peel Extracts as Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Additives Used in Alfalfa Sprouts
(MDPI, 2022)Aqueous and ethanolic pomegranate peel extracts (PPE) were studied as a source of phenolic compounds with antimicrobial, anti-quorum sensing, and antioxidant properties. The aqueous extract showed higher total phenolic ... -
Desirability-based optimization of bakery products containing pea, hemp and insect flours using mixture design methodology
(Elsevier, 2022)Simplex lattice design was used to design 15 sponge cakes formulations combining pea (PP), hemp (HP) and insect (IP) flours representing 15% of dough composition. Moisture, protein content, baking loss, specific ... -
An innovative water-assisted UV-C disinfection system to improve the safety of strawberries frozen under cryogenic conditions
(Elsevier; European Federation of Food Science and Technology, 2021)Strawberries inoculated with Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes (108 CFU/mL, 50 μL) and murine norovirus (MNV-1; 106 TCID50/mL, 50 μL), were washed for 2 min in a water-assisted UV-C light tank (WUVC) combined or ... -
Application of an innovative water-assisted ultraviolet C light technology for the inactivation of microorganisms in tomato processing industries
(Elsevier, 2021)We aimed to study the efficacy of a water-assisted UVC light device (WUVC) as an innovative clean technology for the disinfection of fresh sound tomatoes and processing wash water and water turbidity was evaluated as ... -
Modelling the recovery of biocompounds from peach waste assisted by pulsed electric fields or thermal treatment
(Elsevier, 2021)The recovery of non-purified bioactive extracts (70% ethanol) from peach pomace (PP) was assisted by conventional thermal treatment (CTT, 50º C up to 90 min) or pulsed electric fields (PEF, specific energy input, EV, ... -
Consumer knowledge and attitudes towards microalgae as food: The case of Spain
(Elsevier, 2021)Spanish consumers’ knowledge and attitudes towards microalgae as food were assessed using a specific questionnaire - a total of 3084 Spanish consumers over 18 years old were considered in the current study. Overall, ... -
Impact of centrifugation and vacuum filtration step on the yield and molecular weight distribution of protein hydrolysates from rapeseed and sunflower meals
(Elsevier, 2022)The aim of this work was to produce protein hydrolysates directly from oilseed meals using an innovative and scalable extraction process, involving vacuum filtration in the solid/liquid step recovery. The protein hydrolysates ... -
