Decontamination of fresh-cut broccoli with a water–assisted UV-C technology and its combination with peroxyacetic acid
(Elsevier, 2018)The effectiveness of a water-assisted UV-C (WUV) technology for the decontamination of fresh-cut broccoli from conventional and organic agricultural practices was evaluated as an alternative to chlorine sanitation. Several ... -
Decontamination of Listeria innocua from fresh-cut broccoli using UV-C applied in water or peroxyacetic acid, and dry-pulsed light
(Elsevier, 2019-03)The efficacy of two irradiation technologies: Ultraviolet-C light (UV-C), applied in water or in diluted peroxyacetic acid, and dry-pulsed light (PL) for the inactivation and growth inhibition of Listeria innocua in fresh-cut ... -
Delivery of β-carotene to the in vitro intestinal barrier using nanoemulsions with lecithin or sodium caseinate as emulsifiers
(Elsevier, 2021)To increase the intestinal delivery of dietary β-carotene, there is a need to develop nanostructured food systems to encapsulate this fat soluble bioactive. The aim of this study was to evaluate the bioacessibility and ... -
Deoxynivalenol degradation in wheat kernels by exposition to ammonia vapours: A tentative strategy for detoxification
(Elsevier, 2020-06-27)Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a mycotoxin produced mainly by Fusarium species and occurs predominantly in cereal grains such as wheat. Due to its toxic effects, in the European Union DON content in unprocessed cereals and processed ... -
Deoxynivalenol in cereal-based baby food production process. A review
(Elsevier, 2019-02)Deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of the highest occurring mycotoxin of Fusarium species. Its presence in cereal-based infant foods is extremely undesirable, especially considering the increased sensitivity of this population ... -
Depicting the battle between nectarine and Monilinia laxa: the fruit developmental stage dictates the effectiveness of the host defenses and the pathogen’s infection strategies
(Springer Nature, 2020)Infections by the fungus Monilinia laxa, the main cause of brown rot in Europe, result in considerable losses of stone fruit. Herein, we present a comprehensive transcriptomic approach to unravel strategies deployed by ... -
Design and characterization of corn starch edible films including beeswax and natural antimicrobials
(Springer Science+Business Media New York, 2017)The effectiveness of edible films (EFs) used as coatings to maintain the quality and safety of fresh produce for long time depends on their functional properties characterization. This study was aimed to design and evaluate ... -
Design, optimization and validation of genes commonly used in expression studies on DMH/AOM rat colon carcinogenesis model
(PeerJ, 2019-01-29)Colorectal cancer (CRC), also known as colon cancer, is the third most common form of cancer worldwide in men and the second in women and is characterized by several genetic alterations, among them the expression of several ... -
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 ... -
Detection and quantification by PCR assay of the biocontrol agent Pantoea agglomerans CPA-2 on apples
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)The registration of biological control agents requires the development of monitoring systems to detect and quantify the agent in the environment Pantoea agglomerans CPA-2 is an effective biocontrol agent for postharvest ... -
Determinants of HDL Cholesterol Efflux Capacity after Virgin Olive Oil Ingestion: Interrelationships with Fluidity of HDL Monolayer
(WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim, 2017-09-08)Scope: Cholesterol efflux capacity of HDL (CEC) is inversely associated with cardiovascular risk. HDL composition, fluidity, oxidation, and size are related with CEC. We aimed to assess which HDL parameters were CEC ... -
Determination of aflatoxins, deoxynivalenol, ochratoxin A and zearalenone in wheat and oat based bran supplements sold in the Spanish market
(Elsevier, 2013)The main objective of this study was to assess the exposure of Catalonian (Spain) population to AFs. Thus, two sub-objectives were considered: 1) to assess the occurrence of AFs in food marketed in Catalonia, and 2) to ... -
Determination of naringin and hesperidin in citrus fruit by high-performance liquid chromatography. The antioxidant potential of citrus fruit
(Akadémiai Kiadó, 2006)Naringin and hesperidin in dimethyl sulfoxide extracts of citrus fruit (oranges, red and blond grapefruit, and sweeties - a hybrid of pummelo and blond grapefruit) have been analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography ... -
Determination of the iodine value of biodiesel using 1H NMR with 1,4-dioxane as an internal standard
(Elsevier, 2010)Iodine values (IVs) of some biodiesel samples were analyzed using both 1H NMR and a standard iodometric method. 1H NMR was carried out with and without 1,4-dioxane as an internal standard (IS). The results obtained using ... -
Deterministic and probabilistic dietary exposure assessment to deoxynivalenol in Spain and the Catalonian region
(MDPI, 2022-07-20)Deoxynivalenol (DON) remains one of the most concerning mycotoxins produced by the Fusarium genus due to the wide occurrence in highly consumed cereal-based food and its associ-ated toxicological effects. Previous studies ... -
