Resveratrol-enriched grape seed oil (Vitis vinifera L.) protects from white fat dysfunction in obese mice
(Elsevier, 2019)Grape skin and seed oil are winemaking by-products with a potential nutraceutical value. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of resveratrol-enriched grape seed oil (GSO) administration on white adipose tissue (WAT) ... -
Exploring thermosonication as non‑chemical disinfection technology for strawberries
(Springer, 2022)The scope of this work was to study the efcacy of the combination of sonication at 35 or 130 kHz with three temperature treatments: 20, 50 and 55 ºC, on the population of artifcially inoculated Listeria innocua in ... -
Variation in the methylation of caffeoylquinic acids and urinary excretion of 3′-methoxycinnamic acid-4′-sulfate after apple consumption by volunteers
(Wiley, 2021-07)It has been reported that the phenolic metabolite 3′-methoxycinnamic acid-4′-sulfate generated from 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid may have potential benefits in human health. However, the variation in 3′- and 4′-methylation of ... -
Interfacial activity of phenolic-rich extracts from avocado fruit waste: Influence on the colloidal and oxidative stability of emulsions and nanoemulsions
(Elsevier, 2021)The effects of phenolic-rich extracts from avocado peels (AP) and seeds (AS) on the colloidal and the lipid oxidative stability of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions/nanoemulsions were evaluated. For this purpose, the interfacial ... -
Photo-degradation of alfalfa saponins by UV–visible multi-wavelength irradiation
(Elsevier, 2022)A photochemical treatment with UV multi-wavelength irradiation was applied to investigate the degradation of the saponins mixture obtained from alfalfa leaves. The photo-degradation was studied in an aqueous solution at a ... -
Influence of the extraction conditions on the carbohydrate and phenolic composition of functional pectin from persimmon waste streams
(Elsevier, 2022-02)Persimmon fruit (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) production suffers great losses (15–20%) due to the inefficient overripening process. In order to valorise this waste, a compositional characterization of different fruit stages of ... -
Greater bioavailability of xanthophylls compared to carotenes from orange juice (high-pressure processed, pulsed electric field treated, low-temperature pasteurised, and freshly squeezed) in a crossover study in healthy individuals
(Elsevier, 2021)This study examined the effect of the intake of orange juice provided freshly squeezed (FS) or processed using low-temperature pasteurisation (LP), high-pressure processing (HPP), or pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment ... -
Novel and efficient biotechnological approach to produce 2,5-diformylfuran from biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural
(American Chemical Society, 2021)The preparation of compounds of interest from biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has attracted considerable attention. One such compound is 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF), obtained through oxidation of the hydroxyl ... -
Effectiveness of pulsed light treatments assisted by mild heat on Saccharomyces cerevisiae inactivation in verjuice and evaluation of its quality during storage
(Elsevier, 2020)The effects of pulsed light (PL) processing parameters such as depth of juice layer (1, 3, 5 mm), distance from the lamp (5, 10 cm) and number of pulses (0-50 pulses) on the inactivation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in ... -
Effect of a Mycotoxin Binder (MMDA) on the Growth Performance, Blood and Carcass Characteristics of Broilers Fed Ochratoxin A and T-2 Mycotoxin Contaminated Diets
(MDPI, 2021-11-10)The contamination of feed with mycotoxins is a global concern, resulting in adverse effects on productivity and animal health and, therefore, a great economic loss. Ochratoxin A and T-2 mycotoxins are among the mycotoxins ... -
Virgin Olive Oil Phenolic Compounds Modulate the HDL Lipidome in Hypercholesterolaemic Subjects: A Lipidomic Analysis of the VOHF Study
(Wiley-VCH GmbH, 2021)Scope The lipidomic analysis of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) could be useful to identify new biomarkers of HDL function. Methods and results A randomized, controlled, double-blind, crossover trial (33 hypercholesterolaemic ... -
Pulsed electric field treatment strategies to increase bioaccessibility of phenolic and carotenoid compounds in oil-added carrot purees
(Elsevier, 2021-06-16)The impact of pulsed electric fields (PEF) and their combination with a thermal treatment on the bioaccessibility of phenolic and carotenoid compounds in oil-added carrot puree (5 %) was investigated. Fractions of such ... -
Applying pulsed electric fields to whole carrots enhances the bioaccessibility of carotenoid and phenolic compounds in derived products
(MDPI, 2021-06-08)We propose the application of pulsed electric fields (PEF) to carrots to obtain derived products with increased phenolic and carotenoid bioaccessibility. For this purpose, juices, purees, and oil-added purees were obtained ... -
