The inherent and unique profiles of VOCs in different food products serve as chemical fingerprints, enabling the differentiation of authentic food products from fraudulent ones across various food categories such as dairy, fruits, vegetables, meat, seafood, beverages, and grains. The review begins with an overview of the chemical properties and characteristics of VOCs, emphasizing their diversity and significance in the sensory experience of food products. The article explores VOCs' application in food authentication, providing valuable information on origin, variety, quality, ripening stage, and potential adulterations. Advancements in detection and analytical techniques, such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), proton transfer reaction-mass spectrometry (PTR-MS), selected ion flow tube-mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS), electronic noses (E-noses) etc., are discussed. The article also addresses the challenges and limitations in VOC-based food authentication, including variability in VOCs profiles, technical limitations, and regulatory considerations. In conclusion, the review underscores the potential of VOCs as indicators in food integrity, predicting that continued technological advancements and interdisciplinary collaboration will enhance food safety, quality, and traceability.","PeriodicalId":11436,"journal":{"name":"eFood","volume":"6 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/efd2.70057","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143897219","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}

The manufacture of CQDs in the food industry has both significant advancements and apparent challenges. Although food waste can be used to create CQDs, research is still ongoing to determine how feasible and scalable these processes are. Despite the fact that CQDs have demonstrated potential in enhancing food safety and quality, further studies are essential to optimize their application in the food industry.

These include carbohydrates, dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as phenolic acids and carotenoids. Dates that are better than other diet options in terms of nutrient density and functional benefits would be presented and applied in sports nutrition products, such as energy bars. The application of dehydrated fruits and their phytochemical profiles for performance improvement and recovery will also be addressed. Helpful recommendations touch on the timing of meals, how fruits should be taken, and dispelling myths surrounding natural sugar sources.

Biofuels have gained popularity in recent years because of their renewable and environmentally friendly prospects. Second-generation biodiesel is generated from nonedible raw materials such as food waste, and is suggested to have lesser negative impacts on the environment and does not threaten food security. Edible fruit waste (7.65 kg/person) and edible vegetable waste (16 kg/person) is suggested to have highest contribution in the 38% of the global food waste. Annually, this corresponds to 15.78 m2 of cropland usage, 1.358 kg CO2 equivalent, 232.87 g of nitrogen usage, 3810.6 L of freshwater usage, and 38.544 g of phosphorus usage per person for agricultural production. FVW includes peels, seeds, crops, leaves, straw, stems, roots, or tubers. This waste can be utilized as feedstock for biofuel instead of burning, dumping, or landfilling, which leads to economic, environmental, and health issues such as water-borne diseases, respiratory diseases, and lung diseases. Converting lignocellulosic mass into green energy including biogas, bioethanol, and biohydrogen can help in agricultural waste management while also contributing to carbon-neutral model. Past studies have shown the potential of using fruit and vegetable waste in energy generation, jet fuels, and general diesel engines. This review focuses on the latest advances in biofuel production technology, with an emphasis on new pretreatments, production technologies, and recent works to improve biofuel production from lignocellulosic biomass.","PeriodicalId":11436,"journal":{"name":"eFood","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/efd2.70051","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143786793","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}

The extract was rich in sulfur compounds, highlighting the presence of other compounds like phenolics, and the antioxidant property was corroborated. Regarding AD markers, the acetylcholinesterase inhibitory capacity was demonstrated in vitro. Although the extract did not modify the amyloid β-induced paralysis degree, it was able to improve, in a dose-dependent manner, some locomotive parameters affected by the hyperphosphorylated tau protein in C. elegans. It could be related to the effect found on GFP-transgenic stains, mainly regarding to the increase in the gene expression of HSP-16.2. Moreover, an initial investigation into the aging process revealed that the extract successfully inhibited the accumulation of intracellular and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species in aged worms. These results provide valuable insights into the multifaceted impact of garlic extract, particularly in the context of aging and neurodegenerative processes. This study lays a foundation for further research avenues exploring the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying garlic effects and its translation into potential therapeutic interventions for age-related neurodegenerative conditions.","PeriodicalId":11436,"journal":{"name":"eFood","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/efd2.70044","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749772","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}

Studies have shown that chitosan and selenium are effective in preserving fruits and vegetables during storage. This study investigated the effect of selenium-chitosan (25 mg L−1 selenium and 1.0% chitosan) treatment on Red Globe grapes' disease resistance during storage at 0°C. The results indicated that treatment with selenium-chitosan significantly reduced the decay rate of grapes from 41.79% to 4.93% at 60 days of storage. Additionally, the treatment increased the activities of POD and CAT and decreased the activity of PPO. The application of selenium-chitosan resulted in increased activity of PAL, C4H, and 4CL which was related to the phenylalanine pathway, leading to the accumulation of phenolic compounds and improved disease resistance in grapes. RT-qPCR analysis revealed that the upregulation of VvPAL, VvC4H, and Vv4CL was delayed in grapes treated with selenium-chitosan. Their expression levels were significantly lower than those of the control grapes, with reductions to 2.37%, 2.02% and 10.60 at 60 days of storage, respectively. After inoculation with Botrytis cinerea, grapes treated with selenium-chitosan effectively limited the growth of Botrytis cinerea mycelium. These results suggest that selenium-chitosan treatment significantly improves resistance to microbial infestation and limits fungal growth after exposure.","PeriodicalId":11436,"journal":{"name":"eFood","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/efd2.70050","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143689408","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}
