In recent years, it seems that cube-making preserves the appearance and marketability of food. In this study, the physicochemical properties of foam-mat-dried spinach powders with thicknesses of 3 and 5 mm produced at 40°C, 50°C, 60°C, and 70°C were investigated. The resulting powder was used to produce spinach cubes. The physicochemical properties of the powders were evaluated. With an increase in foam thickness, the water activity, moisture content, dissolution time, particle size, density, and porosity increased, whereas the hygroscopicity and glass transition temperature decreased. The lowest chlorophyll content (0.166 mg/g spinach) was observed in samples dried at 70°C and 5 mm. The samples dried at 70°C and 3 mm had the highest <i>L</i><sup>∗</sup> and higher stability (lower moisture content and water activity and higher <i>T</i><i>g</i>). The Heckel equation showed that the highest <i>k</i> value was related to the spinach powder produced at 70°C and 5 mm. The cubes with the greatest heights, the highest chlorophyll content (0.245 mg/g spinach), and the lowest dissolution time were obtained from powders produced at 40°C and 3 mm. The cube of the powder produced at 70°C and 5 mm had the longest dissolution time. All cubes had a non-Fickian release in both dissolution media. The product of this research is dried spinach powder and its cubes. This product provides easy access to the valuable nutritional compounds of spinach in all conditions. This product is used as an additive in soup. It can also be used with yogurt and smoothies.</p>","PeriodicalId":15717,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Processing and Preservation","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/9114105","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142435601","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}

The total flavonoid content (TFC) and total phenolic content (TPC) were analyzed, and then the antioxidant activities in vitro and antialcoholic effects in vivo were assessed.

Furthermore, NCB also showed a good antialcoholic effect in mice. Whether before or after alcohol intake, the consumption of NCB could significantly extend the drunken latency time, shorten the sobriety time, and decrease the blood alcohol concentration compared with the model group. Analysis of the antialcoholic mechanism demonstrated that NCB can remarkably increase the activity of superoxide dismutase, improve glutathione level, and reduce malondialdehyde content, thereby combating oxidative stress caused by alcohol, maintaining the stability of the intracellular antioxidant defense system, and alleviating liver damage; In addition, NCB can upregulate the activities of alcohol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase and accelerate alcohol metabolism, thus decreasing the blood alcohol concentration, shortening the sobriety time, and lowering the risk of liver damage caused by alcohol.
