Effect of Pulsed Electric Fields (PEF) on Extraction Yield and Stability of Oil Obtained from Dry Pecan Nuts (Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh. K. Koch))
(MDPI, 2021)Pulsed electric fields (PEF) have been reported to increase the total oil extraction yield (OEYTOTAL) of fresh pecan nuts maintaining oil characteristics and increasing phenolic compounds in the remaining by-product. ... -
Recent Advances toward the Application of Non-Thermal Technologies in Food Processing: An Insight on the Bioaccessibility of Health-Related Constituents in Plant-Based Products
(MDPI, 2021)Fruits and vegetables are rich sources of bioactive compounds and micronutrients. Some of the most abundant are phenols and carotenoids, whose consumption contributes to preventing the occurrence of degenerative diseases. ... -
Preliminary survey of the occurrence of mycotoxins in cereals and estimated exposure in a northwestern region of Mexico
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-08-04)Mycotoxins have several toxicological implications. In the present study, we evaluate the presence of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), ochratoxin A (OTA), and fumonisin (FB1) in paddy rice, polished rice, and maize from the fields and ... -
Use of predictive modelling as tool for prevention of fungal spoilage at different points of the food chain
(Elsevier, 2021)Moulds cause severe economic losses at different points of plant food commodities production, from the field to the final foodstuffs. Predictive modelling is an increasingly used tool applied to solve different issues in ... -
Purple, high β-glucan, hulless barley as valuable ingredient for functional food
(Elsevier, 2020)Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) stands out for its high content on bioactive compounds although it is not frequently found in human food. In this study, a purple hulless barley genotype was used to explore its food potential. ... -
