(MDPI, 2019-09-01)Maqui (Aristotelia Chilensis) berry features a unique profile of anthocyanidins that includes high amounts of delphinidin-3-O-sambubioside-5-O-glucoside and delphinidin-3-O-sambubioside and has shown positive effects on ... -
Mango (Mangifera indica L.) Dehydration as a Women Entrepreneurship Alternative in Vulnerable Communities
(MDPI, 2022)In Colombia, most commercial drying processes are frequently performed through the burning of wood and fossil fuels with high costs and environmental damage. Nevertheless, solar drying is a technique that could also be ... -
Mechanisms of resistance in postharvest fruit-pathogen interaction
(Universidad Autónoma Chapingo, 2015)The objective of this review was to bring together concepts related to studies aimed at elucidating defense mechanisms against disease-causing agents, mainly in postharvest. Like plants, fruits are exposed to attack by ... -
Metabolic and Microbial Modulation of the Large Intestine Ecosystem by Non-Absorbed Diet Phenolic Compounds: A Review
(MDPI, 2015)Phenolic compounds represent a diverse group of phytochemicals whose intake is associated with a wide spectrum of health benefits. As consequence of their low bioavailability, most of them reach the large intestine where, ... -
Metabolic fate and cardiometabolic effects of phenolic compounds from red‐fleshed apple in hypercholesterolemic rats: A comparative study with common white‐fleshed apple. The AppleCOR Study
(Wiley, 2021)The present study aimed to investigate the metabolic fate and the cardiometabolic effects of phenolic compounds (PC) provided by a red‐fleshed apple variety biofortified in anthocyanins (ACN). Wistar rats were feed with ... -
Metabolite profiling of olive oil and thyme phenols after a sustained intake of two phenol-enriched olive oils by humans: Identification of compliance markers
(Elsevier, 2014)An understanding of causal relations between phenol intake and its beneficial effects on health is hindered by the lack of robust biological markers of its exposure. This is particularly relevant in mid/long-term nutritional ... -
Micotoxinas en alimentación animal: ¿es posible reducir su efecto mediante la adición de adsorbentes a los piensos?

Microbial interaction between Salmonella enterica and main postharvest fungal pathogens on strawberry fruit
(Elsevier, 2019-12-14)The microbial interaction between Salmonella enterica and the main postharvest fungal pathogens of strawberries was evaluated. Inoculation of fungal suspension was done 2 (D2) and 1 (D1) day(s) before and at the same time ... -
Microencapsulation of cinnamon leaf (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) and garlic (Allium sativum) oils in beta-cyclodextrin
(Springer, 2008-04)Cinnamon leaf (CLO) and garlic oils (GO) are good antimicrobials, however, their volatility complicates their application as food preservatives. Hence, microencapsulation of CLO and GO with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) was ... -
Mineral and fatty acid profile of high intensity pulsed electric fields or thermally treated fruit juice-milk beverages stored under refrigeration
(Elsevier, 2017)The influence of High Intensity Pulsed Electric Fields (HIPEF) or Thermal Treatment (TT) on minerals and fatty acids of fruit juice-whole (FJ-WM) or skimmed milk (FJ-SM) beverages was assessed after processing and during ... -
Mode of action of a fatty acid-based natural product to control Botrytis cinerea in grapes
(The Society for Applied Microbiology, 2014)Aims: To investigate the efficacy and mode of action of the fatty acid-based product Foodcoat((R)) (FC) against Botrytis cinerea. Methods and Results: In vitro, in vivo and field experiments were carried out to investigate ... -
Modeling kinetics of aflatoxin production by Aspergillus flavus in maize-based medium and maize grain
(Elsevier, 2013)Predictive mycology has dealt mainly with germination, growth and inactivation of fungi while the issue of mycotoxin production remains relatively unexplored. Very few studies provide biomass dry weight/colony size data ... -
Modeling postharvest mycotoxins in foods: recent research
(Elsevier, 2016)Available information on the prediction of postharvest production of mycotoxins in recent years is reviewed. Predictive mycology has been focused mainly on fungal growth whereas studies on prediction of mycotoxins in foods ... -
