Feeds and feed stuffs are an excellent media for the growth of fungi. Fungi are major spoilage agents of foods and feedstuffs. During manufacturing, feeds can be contaminated with mould spores. The major causing sever feed deterioration (Aspergillus flavus Fungus) was isolated from chicken and fish feed contaminants. So that, the aim of this study was focuses on prevent growth of Aspergillus flavus fungus by using some physical and biological methods. The obtained data presented that, A. flavus was found to reduce significant (P<0.001 and P<0.05) protein and fibers contents and increase fats and moisture percent of contaminated fish feed sample. In in Vivo, data show that, sunlight was found to decrease significant (P<0.001 and P<0.05) the total fungal population (count) of tested chicken and fish feed samples association, as well as increase significantly (P<0.001 and P<0.05) the decreasing percent with increasing the time period to sunlight exposure. In in vitro, data indicated that, data indicated that, propolis extract was found to decrease significant (P<0.001) the linear growth of A. flavus fungus when cultured with 2, 5, 10 and 20% of propolis extract. Increase decreasing percent with increasing the concentration of propolis extract. It was found to effectively suppress mycelial dry weight, significantly (P<0.001) inhibited spore germination (viability) and effectively suppress morphological characteristics causing several changes and damages of mycelia.\u0000How to cite this article: Embaby EM, Ayaat NM, Elgalil MMA et al.

The purpose of these papers in this is to look at the scope of hunger in countries and then to identify the factors that predict hunger in each individual country. This is the 5th paper in the series and is concerned with hunger in Madagascar, one of Africa’s and the world’s hungriest countries. The paper is important for several reasons. One is the fact that it, like all the country level papers, is based on a national probability sample, something the literature stresses is lacking and needed to improve hunger research. A second is that all the papers in the series, including this one, found that the literature’s suggestion that gender and the rural-urban dimension are significant predictors of hunger. These studies have provided a consistent list of significant hunger predictors. Employment in the country’s agricultural sector, wealth as measured by asset ownership, education and age were consistent significant predictors, .The surprising findings were related to respondent perception of the role of government in addressing hunger, questions like the way the government was handling whether people had enough to eat or addressing the living standards of the poor. The major policy implication of this and earlier papers is that governments need to reach out to citizens, presenting them with their food related plans and assuring them that the government is doing everything within its power to address hunger in their countries.","PeriodicalId":12403,"journal":{"name":"Food Science and Nutrition","volume":"64 1","pages":"21"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82163716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fragments of the extensor carpi radial is muscle were extracted to analyze the presence ROS, and samples of the Longissimus dorsi, 24h post-mortem for pH, colorimetric test, cooking loss and drip loss assessment and the sheer force. The presence of hematomas was detected in 28 carcasses, where the tail and croup (17/33) and flank (17/33) regions were the most affected. The electron paramagnetic resonance indicated an average of 52.59 ROS/g in the analyzed pieces. The meat quality tests indicated: 5.8 for the 24h post-mortem pH, L*29.34, a* 2.52 and b* 1.31 in calorimetry, 2.30 kg/f for the shearing force, 11.75% of cooking losses and 1.88% of drip losses.

However, the options for probiotics are lower for a group of consumers who are allergic or lactose intolerant. As an alternative to a nondairy product, this work aims to propose the formulation of a low-cost drink with probiotic characteristics based on coconut water, free from lactose and fermented by Lactobacillus casei shirota. Two products were made: one with packaged coconut water and the other with fresh coconut water. The inoculum was obtained from a commercial fermented drink (Yakult®). In the first stage (fermentation), the total cultivation time was 48h; however, the most suitable time was 12h at 36oC for both cultures, with monitoring of pH, total acidity and cell concentration. Cultivations were carried out in duplicates with a repetition of the process for each product. After the first stage, the second stage (microbiological stability) at refrigeration temperature (5°C to 8°C) was started. The total refrigeration time was 120h; however, the most suitable time was 72h for both drinks. The estimate of lactic acid production was investigated using infrared spectrometry with Attenuated Total Reflectance (FTIR-ATR). It was possible to observe specific bands of carboxylic acids. The results obtained were promising and show potential to produce probiotic non-dairy drinks with inoculum and low-cost substrate.","PeriodicalId":12403,"journal":{"name":"Food Science and Nutrition","volume":"10 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91539943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various animal and plant based food are rich source of protein and essential amino acids. Egg protein, milk protein, soy protein, peanut protein and many proteins contain essential amino acids having various health benefits and functional properties. Peanut is an important oilseed and defatted peanut flour is a byproduct of peanut oil milling industry with a rich source of protein. This protein can be concentrated as Peanut Protein Concentrate (PPC) and Peanut Protein Isolate (PPI) with around 80-85% and more than 90% protein, respectively. Peanut protein can be extracted for bioactive peptides, hydrolysates, can also be converted into texturized protein such as meat analogue, packaging film. Favorable functional properties of peanut protein such as emulsifying activity, emulsifying stability, foaming capacity, excellent water retention and high solubility etc. made it versatile for various food system. Various extraction methods such as isoelectric precipitation, aqueous precipitation, isoelectric precipitation, alcohol precipitation, Ultrafiltration (UF) and combination of thereof are used for preparation of PPC and PPI. The peanut protein can compete with another animal and plant proteins with all the required health benefits and functional properties necessary for the food system.

We investigate the metabolic difference of conventional and naturally grown coarse green tea (Bancha) in correspondence to physical activity that was induced among consumers. As a result, only naturally grown Bancha tea was observed to significantly increase the consumers’ locomotive energy expenditure with a counter decrease in household activities, resulting in a higher shift of exercise level. The conventional product showed the opposite tendency but was not statistically significant. In terms of metabolite categories that distinguished between the culture conditions, conventional tea was observed to express higher primary metabolites such as amino acid, while naturally grown tea contained a superior dose of secondary metabolites, especially flavonoid. No significant correlation could be found on caffeine and catechin contents with respect to physical activity responses. The occurrence of intrinsic compounds in each culture condition was weaker than the quantitative features of common compounds in explaining the difference. Statistically significant invariant features of culture conditions were found both in 1. expression patterns and 2. intensity of distinctive common compounds considerably overlapping with drug categories. These effects on human physical activities could be interpreted as 1. combined and 2. dose effect of environmentally responsive phytochemicals, respectively, ranging widely over basic metabolic pathways and secondary metabolite biosynthesis.","PeriodicalId":12403,"journal":{"name":"Food Science and Nutrition","volume":"5 1","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87422173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
