Abstract
ABSTRACT Finger millet, kodo millet, and rice bran were chemo-enzymatically modified, and their prebiotic potential was evaluated using in-vitro human fecal batch fermentation and in-vivo feeding to mice. Modified cereal bran (mCB) from finger millet, kodo millet, and rice bran contained 30%, 17%, and 24% higher content of dietary fiber compared to their respective native bran. Tannin, flavonoids, polyphenols, and phytate content were reduced in the mCBs. Fecal batch fermentation with mCBs enhanced the short-chain fatty acid levels and the abundance of selected gut bacteria such as Bifidobacteria, Lactobacillus, and Bacteroidetes along with propionate and butyrate. In-vivo experiments showed no change in weight gain, blood glucose, and serum lipids. mCB supplementation enhanced the abundance of selected bacteria such as Bifidobacteria, Lactobacillus, and Bacteroidetes and decreased the abundance of E. coli, Klebsiella, and Clostridium. These findings provide an insight into the functional food potential of valorized mCBs in maintaining a healthy gut environment. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
期刊介绍:
Food Biotechnology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that is focused on current and emerging developments and applications of modern genetics, enzymatic, metabolic and systems-based biochemical processes in food and food-related biological systems. The goal is to help produce and improve foods, food ingredients, and functional foods at the processing stage and beyond agricultural production.
Other areas of strong interest are microbial and fermentation-based metabolic processing to improve foods, food microbiomes for health, metabolic basis for food ingredients with health benefits, molecular and metabolic approaches to functional foods, and biochemical processes for food waste remediation. In addition, articles addressing the topics of modern molecular, metabolic and biochemical approaches to improving food safety and quality are also published.
Researchers in agriculture, food science and nutrition, including food and biotechnology consultants around the world will benefit from the research published in Food Biotechnology. The published research and reviews can be utilized to further educational and research programs and may also be applied to food quality and value added processing challenges, which are continuously evolving and expanding based upon the peer reviewed research conducted and published in the journal.
