The present work carried out infrared (FTIR), zeta potential and thermogravimetry analyzes to evaluate the possible interactions between maltodextrin, Capsul® and gum arabic with purified anthocyanins. In this study, it was observed that microcapsules produced with maltodextrin had a higher content of anthocyanins on their surface, and FTIR analysis identified intermolecular hydrogen bonds between all wall materials and anthocyanins. Through zeta potential analysis, an electrostatic bond in the surface layer between anthocyanins with maltodextrin or Capsul® is suggested. The interaction between maltodextrin and anthocyanins thermally stabilized the microcapsules. Among the materials studied, maltodextrin showed the highest interaction affinity with anthocyanins. Capsul® did not present a microcapsule with good thermal stability, which shows that the anthocyanins must be protected in the nucleus for this.

The regression coefficient (R<sup>2</sup>) was greater than 0.999 according to constructed calibration curves for all aflatoxin components. Thus, the curves exhibited satisfactory linearity within the analyzed range. The combined standard uncertainty values for precision (RSD%) studies were below 10%.

Analysis involving food microscopy have been used for a long time to identify product authenticity and potential fraudulent products. Therefore, this study evaluated the presence of foreign matter and histological elements in 30 plant-based beverages sold in Brazil using microscopic techniques. Microscopic foreign matter was found in 23 % of the samples and 60 % of assessed brands, so monitoring by authorities and manufacturers is recommended to determine whether or not a foreign matter limit should be established for this class of food. Foreign matter of larger diameter such as whole insects, textile fibers, metal and plastic particles were not found in the samples, indicating good plant hygiene and sanitation. In the analysis of histological elements, the main ingredients listed on the product labels were found, and no fraud was observed in relation to the addition of inferior raw materials. Identification of histological elements using microscopic techniques proved to be feasible, but required knowledge and experience of analysts. This study demonstrates that plant-based beverages are a safe option for consumers seeking alternative beverages to milk or allergens. Despite not being a simple technique, the histological analysis of food remains an effective method while screening techniques, such as real-time PCR and chemometrics, which are more precise, are more used in food fraud.

These foods are mainly purchased from retail shops and open markets that expose them to mould and aflatoxin contamination. This study assessed total aflatoxin exposure arising from consumption of maize and groundnuts based products by KCC dwellers, and the associated cancer risk. The study was conducted in two divisions of KCC targeting mothers (15–49 years) and children (6–59 months). Results indicate that the majority of the household heads were engaged in low-income occupations with 35 % earning less than US $ 1 a day. Over half of the households purchased cereals and legumes once to twice a week and stored the food in polypropylene or polythene bags. The mean maize consumption rate was 128.7 and 189.9 g/person/day for children and mothers, respectively, while that for groundnuts was 71.6 (children) and 110 (women) g/person/day. Groundnut flour samples recorded the highest proportion (76 %) of samples that tested positive for aflatoxins with a mean total of 37.94 µg/kg (0.04 - 296.4 µg/kg). Only 28 % of the maize flour samples tested positive with a mean total of 27.9 µg/kg (0.04 - 345.8). The mean total aflatoxin levels in both maize (27.9 µg/kg) and groundnuts (37.94 µg/kg) were above the minimum regulatory limit of 10 µg/kg set by the Uganda National Bureau of Standards. The estimated total aflatoxin intake ranged between 0.01 and 0.91 µg/kg/BW/day in both women and children while the estimated total aflatoxin exposure was above the daily intake limit of 0.017 µg/kg BW/day recommended by the European Food Safety Agency. The derived risk of developing primary liver cancer was 5.4 and 7.6 cancer cases per 100,000 individuals per year for children 6–59 months and mothers 15–49 years respectively. The study findings suggest that consumption of maize and groundnuts based foods by low income dwellers in KCC is associated with health risks as it could lead to development of primary liver cancer.

Increase in BT resulted in increase in expansion ratio(ER), water absorption index (WAI), and water solubility index (WSI) whereas the bulk density (BD) and hardness decreased with increase in BT. Increase in the proportion of SB resulted in increased BD, hardness, and reduced water solubility index (WSI) and sensory scores. Three principal components explained 89.1 % of the variations where the first (PC1), the second (PC2) and the third (PC3) principal components explained 62.4, 20.2 and 6.5 % of the variations respectively. BD, WAI and Hardness are strongly and positively associated with each other whereas they are negatively associated with WSI, crispiness, Specific length (L<sub>sp</sub>) and ER. Graphical optimization gave best results for BT between 128 and 137 °C and SB proportion between 2 and 7.3 % where the FM is fixed at 10 %. Besides, BT of 135 °C to137 °C, FM of 10–12 % when the SB proportion is fixed at 7.5 % gave optimal product quality. The numerical optimization resulted in optimal extrusion conditions for optimal product quality were BT of 135 °C, FM of 10 % and SB proportion of 5 % with a desirability value of 0.875. The results revealed that SB can be incorporated up to 7.5 % to obtain an acceptable product. Therefore it is possible to produce gluten-free extruded snack by blending teff and soybean flour.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100898,"journal":{"name":"Measurement: Food","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 100120"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772275923000448/pdfft?md5=0c40b47cf60ba127db05a271f9e73cf4&pid=1-s2.0-S2772275923000448-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138465637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Buns were developed using sapota powder at a level of 5%, 7%, 10%, 12%, 15%, and 20% and pearl millet at a level of 10%, 14%, 18%, 22%, 25%, and 30%. Optimization of the formulation was based on the sensory evaluation obtained through a 9-point Hedonic scale. The results revealed that fortified bun i.e., P<sub>MF</sub>S<sub>P</sub>B<sub>4</sub> containing 22% pearl millet and 12% sapota powder, was most appreciated by the tasting panel members. FTIR analysis was done to identify the functional group in P<sub>MF</sub>S<sub>P</sub>B<sub>4</sub>. For storage study the optimized bun (P<sub>MF</sub>S<sub>P</sub>B<sub>4</sub>) was kept for a period of 6 days and analyzed for its proximate composition. The results of the storage study revealed that the values of carbohydrate, protein, ash, energy, and total flavonoid decreased significantly during the storage period. However, on the onset of the 6<sup>th</sup> day, yeast and mold growth was observed on control as well as P<sub>MF</sub>S<sub>P</sub>B<sub>4</sub>. Therefore, the samples were immediately rejected, and no further analysis was performed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100898,"journal":{"name":"Measurement: Food","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 100121"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S277227592300045X/pdfft?md5=5d3a434e29560bdec474817f474fcbb0&pid=1-s2.0-S277227592300045X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138475342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
