The infection capacity of P. expansum and P. digitatum on apples and histochemical analysis of host response
(Elsevier, 2012)Fruit ripening is a complex process that involves a variety of biochemical changes and is also associated with increased susceptibility to pathogens. The present study determined the effects of fruit maturity and storage ... -
The lipid type affects the in vitro digestibility and β-carotene bioaccessibility of liquid or solid lipid nanoparticles
(Elsevier, 2019-12-13)olid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) are emulsion-based carriers of lipophilic bioactive compounds. However, their digestibility may be affected by the solid lipid phase composition. Hence, the aim of this work was to study the ... -
The role of mycotoxins in the human exposome: Application of mycotoxin biomarkers in exposome-health studies
(Elsevier, 2018-09-19)Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungi that may contaminate different foods intended for human consumption, resulting in a widespread exposure worldwide. The novel exposome paradigm has the ambition to ... -
The use of packaging techniques to maintain freshness in fresh-cut fruits and vegetables: a review
(Wiley, 2009)Browning and other discolourations, softening, surface dehydration, water loss, translucency, off-flavour and off-odour development, as well as microbial spoilage are some of the most frequent causes of quality loss ... -
Thermal and non-thermal processing of red-fleshed apple: how are (poly)phenol composition and bioavailability affected?
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)The present study evaluated the impact of different thermal (infrared-drying, hot air-drying and purée pas-teurization) and non-thermal (freeze-drying) processing technologies on red-fleshed apple (poly)phenoliccompounds. ... -
Thermal and pulsed electric fields pasteurization of apple juice: Effects on physicochemical properties and flavour compounds
(Elsevier, 2007-11-01)Apple juice, extracted from golden delicious fruits, was pasteurized using a pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment and compared with a conventional high temperature-short time (HTST) method. The PEF treatment was carried ... -
Thermal stability and kinetics of degradation of deoxynivalenol, deoxynivalenol conjugates and ochratoxin A during baking of wheat bakery products
(Elsevier, 2015)The stability of deoxynivalenol (DON), deoxynivalenol-3-glucoside (DON-3-glucoside), 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol (3-ADON), 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol (15-ADON), de-epoxy-deoxynivalenol (DOM-1) and ochratoxin A (OTA) during thermal ... -
Time-course of germination, initiation of mycelium proliferation and probability of visible growth and detectable AFB1 production of an isolate of Aspergillus flavus on pistachio extract agar
(Elsevier, 2017)The aim of this work was to assess the temporal relationship among quantified germination, mycelial growth and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) production from colonies coming from single spores, in order to find the best way to predict ... -
Toxigenic molds in Tunisian and Egyptian sorghum for human comsumption
(Elsevier, 2015)The objective of this study was to characterize the mycoflora of sorghum grains commercialized in the Tunisian retail market and to identify aflatoxins (AFs), ochratoxin A (OTA) and zearalenone (ZEA) producing species. ... -
Transcriptomic profiling of apple in response to inoculation with a pathogen (Penicillium expansum) and a non-pathogen (Penicillium digitatum)
(Springer Verlag, 2014-04-01)Penicillium expansum, the causal agent of blue mould of pome fruits, is a major postharvest pathogen in all producing countries. To develop a better understanding of disease resistance mechanisms in apples, a comprehensive ... -
Transfer of Fusarium mycotoxins from malt to boiled wort
(Elsevier, 2019-01-25)Malting was simulated using two different batches of barley as raw material: a naturally contaminated batch and laboratory inoculated (with a deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEA) producing Fusarium graminearum strain) ... -
Tratamientos químicos en postcosecha de fruta
(Eumedia, 2003)Durante el periodo de conservación de algunas frutas se producen pérdidas que, en parte, se deben a la aparición de alteraciones fúngicas que provocan podredumbres. El sistema de control más extendido es el empleo de ... -
Tri-octahedral bentonites as potential technological feed additive for Fusarium mycotoxin reduction
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2020-06-12)In 2009 the EU Regulation 386/2009 established a new functional group of feed additives called 'substances for reduction of the contamination of feed by mycotoxin'. Later, di-octahedral bentonite (1 m558) was authorised, ... -
Ultrasound assisted extraction of polysaccharides from mushroom by-products
(Elsevier Ltd, 2017)The effect of ultrasound technology to extract the water soluble polysaccharides from dried and milled by-products generated from Agaricus Bisporus production was studied. Amounts of β-glucan 1.01 and 0.98 g/100 g dry mass ... -
Ultrasound processing alone or in combination with other chemical or physical treatments as a safety and quality preservation strategy of fresh and processed fruits and vegetables: a review
(Springer Nature, 2019-08-12)Ultrasound (US) processing has emerged as a novel food preservation technology. This strategy has proved antimicrobial effects due to cavitation, which is the formation, growth, and collapse of bubbles that generate a ... -
