The study aimed to extend the shelf life of product by preserving microwave treated sample in different packaging materials at different temperature. Microwave-processed jaggery (850 W for 45 s.) is packaged with moisture and oxygen absorbers to check the effect of packaging conditions at ambient and cold storage temperature. The results obtained at 4 °C indicated longer shelf life (up to 12 months) and improved consumer acceptance. The results were calculated by taking sensory evaluation (semi trained panel) and microbial analysis. Whereas on the other side untreated sample limits the shelf life up to 9 months with same storage conditions and start to spoil beyond 9 months of storage time. Thus the treated jaggery extended its shelf life by 25% at cold storage condition (4⁰C).</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13197-024-06111-z.</p>","PeriodicalId":16004,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Science and Technology-mysore","volume":"62 7","pages":"1373-1382"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12174008/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144333235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Baguette, a widely consumed and famous bread, has undergone innovative enhancements in texture by incorporating Spirulina platensis and whey powder as beneficial nutritious food sources. Optimizing and identifying the affecting percentage of Spirulina platensis, whey powder, and baking temperature on the texture of Baguette bread and its composition requires a systematic experimental procedure; for this reason, response surface methodology (RSM) was employed. The study's results demonstrate the significant influence of Spirulina pretension on various quality attributes of the bread, including water absorption, dough stability, bread hardness, cohesiveness, and resilience. Increased concentrations of Spirulina platensis above three weight% % w.w^- 1 in the dough resulted in higher water absorption, stability, and bread hardness. On the other hand, whey powder content exhibited an inverse relationship with bread hardness, meaning that higher whey content led to softer bread. They increased the whey content by approximately 9.05% w.w^- 1, which decreased water absorption, while a whey content of 15% w.w^- 1 resulted in lower dough stability and softer bread. Moreover, increasing the baking temperature consistently reduced bread hardness, mainly when Spirulina platensis was present in the dough at concentrations above 3% w.w^- 1. At a 3% w.w^- 1 concentration of Spirulina platensis, the interaction with temperature notably affected cohesiveness and resilience, highlighting the delicate balance between texture attributes.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13197-024-06105-x.</p>","PeriodicalId":16004,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Science and Technology-mysore","volume":"62 7","pages":"1316-1327"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12174009/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144333234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chicory (<i>Cichorium intybus</i> L.), a perennial herb in the Asteraceae family, mimics the sensory and organoleptic qualities of roasted coffee and has a long history of use in coffee blends. Chicory is particularly rich in inulin (~ 68% of its dry weight), a prebiotic fiber, as well as esculin and chlorogenic acid derivatives. The combination of coffee and chicory enhances key attributes such as brew color, flavor, and viscosity, offering a synergistic blend that combines their nutritional and functional benefits.

Although zoo husbandry and management techniques have progressed, common welfare issues are still apparent. To encourage further improvements, converting theoretical welfare definition into practical application is key. This paper evaluates a familiar definition to form a baseline for practical welfare assessment that benefits animals and zoo operations. If we consider coping and comfort as measurable indicators, plus choice and control to cement autonomy for the animal, achieving positive welfare is more likely. Providing positive cognitive challenge results in improvements to behavioral diversity. When husbandry is ecologically relevant, this welfare-friendly approach evolves into husbandry-based evidence, further justifying approaches to animal care. The human element of husbandry (e.g., development and training of personnel) impacts on welfare, necessitating a compassionate approach to daily operations. Compassion - for animal and human wellbeing - ultimately embeds welfare as a core zoo goal. The unique environment of the zoo, with its mix of wild species, human workforce and visitors, coupled with the amount we still must learn about species' husbandry needs emphasizes continual development of welfare approaches.</p>","PeriodicalId":56277,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science","volume":" ","pages":"497-514"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142907900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
