(Eumedia, 2016-02-15)Las micotoxinas son metabolitos tóxicos producidos por mohos filamentosos que se encuentran frecuentemente en el maíz, pudiendo originarse la contaminación ya en el campo o durante las etapas de recolección y almacenamiento ... -
Las micotoxinas: el enemigo silencioso
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), 2020-05-01)Las micotoxinas son metabolitos fúngicos secundarios que pueden ejercer un efecto tóxico tanto en el hombre como en los animales debido, principalmente, a su exposición a través de los alimentos. La presencia de estos ... -
Las micotoxinas: un problema que resurge con fuerza
(Interempresas, 2015-10-01)Las micotoxinas son metabolitos fúngicos tóxicos frecuentes en alimentos y piensos. Suponen un riesgo para la Salud Pública al poder producir, entre otros, efectos cancerígenos, teratogénicos, embriotóxicos, hepatotóxicos, ... -
Layer-by-layer assembly of food-grade alginate/chitosan nanolaminates: formation and physicochemical characterization
(Springer Science+Business Media New York, 2017)The alternate deposition of oppositely charged materials (layer-by-layer technique) is an effective approach to functionalize materials. Biopolymer-based nanolaminates obtained by the layer-by-layer technique can also be ... -
Lipase activity and enantioselectivity of whole cells from a wild-type Aspergillius flavus strain
(Elsevier, 2014)This study reports the high enantiomeric preference of whole cell lipase from Aspergillus flavus wild-type that allows the preparation of a chiral secondary alcohol. Whole cells prepared from a wild-type Aspergillus flavus ... -
Lipid digestibility and polyphenols bioaccessibility of oil-in-water emulsions containing avocado peel and seed extracts as affected by the presence of low methoxyl pectin
(MDPI, 2021)In this study, the digestibility of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions using low methoxyl pectin (LMP) as surfactant and in combination with avocado peel (AP) or seed (AS) extracts was assessed, in terms of its free fatty acid ... -
Lipoxygenase activity is involved in the regeneration of volatile ester-synthesizing capacity after ultra-low oxygen storage of 'Fuji' apple.
(American Chemical Society, 2009)An extra period under cold air after ultra-low oxygen storage has been shown to increase the concentration of some volatile compounds emitted by stored 'Fuji' apples. The purpose of this work was to assess the role, if ... -
Long-term storage of Pink Lady apples modifies volatile-involved enzyme activities: consequences on production of volatile esters
(American Chemical Society, 2008)Pink Lady apples were harvested at commercial maturity and stored at 1 °C and 92% relative humidity under either air or controlled atmosphere conditions (2 kPa O2:2 kPa CO2 and 1 kPa O2:1 kPa CO2) for 27 weeks. Data on ... -
Low doses of ochratoxin A induce micronucleus formation and delay DNA repair in human lymphocytes
(Elsevier, 2014-12)The contamination of food commodities by fungal toxins has attracted great interest because many of these mycotoxins are responsible for different diseases, including cancer and other chronic illnesses. Ochratoxin A (OTA) ... -
Low-energy membrane-based processes to concentrate and encapsulate polyphenols from carob pulp
(Elsevier, 2020-02-25)Forward osmosis (FO) and emulsification with dynamic membranes of tunable pore size (DMTS) were assessed to concentrate and encapsulate polyphenol extracts from carob pulp. In the FO step, a feed solution temperature of ... -
