Peptides present in RPH and its in vitro exopeptidase digest were identified using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. One hour after an oral administration of RPH (250 mg/kg body weight), the levels of in vitro exopeptidase-resistant pyroglutamyl peptides in the lumen and ileal tissue significantly increased, whereas those of exopeptidase-susceptible peptides remained unchanged. Among them, the concentrations of pyroGlu-Leu, pyroGlu-Val, and pyroGlu-Lys significantly yet slightly increased in portal blood, while those of other hydrophilic ones (pyroGlu-Gln, pyroGlu-Glu, etc.) remained unchanged. However, all of the pyroglutamyl peptides were stable in rat ileal extract and blood plasma. These findings indicate that the pyroglutamyl peptides can enter enterocytes and resist to peptidases, while small amounts are transported to the blood, suggesting that pyroglutamyl peptides in enterocytes might be returned to the lumen.","PeriodicalId":15882,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Bioactives","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81032228","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}

Different precursors such as saccharides, saccharide/amino acid mixtures, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), and oils were heat processed to investigate the formation of furanoic compounds via Maillard reaction and lipid oxidation. Therefore, a low moister (silica gel with 10% water content) and an aqueous (phosphate buffer, pH 4.5, 7, and 9) model system were chosen to study the effect of water content and pH value on the formation process. The formation of different furan derivatives could be attributed to distinct precursors; furfuryl alcohol was highly formed from 1,4-linked disaccharides, whereas PUFA formed the highest amounts of 2-ethylfuran and 2-pentylfuran.","PeriodicalId":15882,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Bioactives","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90609597","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}

In order to maximize extraction of six bioactive compounds in raw Bupleuri Radix and vinegar-baked Bupleuri Radix, the ultrasonic-assisted extraction conditions were obtained by the response surface methodology coupled with Box–Behnken design. The conditions of ultrasonic-assisted extraction were found to be effective for the extraction of bioactive compounds from raw Bupleuri Radix and vinegar-baked Bupleuri Radix. The test results showed that the difference in saikosaponins contents in these samples was obvious; a quantitative analysis of saikosaponins will contribute significantly to improving the quality control of raw Bupleuri Radix and vinegar-baked Bupleuri Radix.

The physical properties, sensory evaluation, shelf-life, proximate composition, antinutrients content and glycemic index (GI) of the composite breads were investigated. Supplementation of wheat bread with doum fruit improved the nutritional content by increasing the fiber and mineral contents with reduction in phytate content. The composite bread, especially at 40% doum fruit inclusion was moderately accepted by the product testing panels. Inclusion of doum fruit further improved the shelf-life of the composite breads at both ambient and refrigerated temperatures. Similarly, the GI was observed to improve with doum fruit inclusion at all the concentration used. Conclusively, inclusion of doum fruit to the wheat flour produced composite breads with improved physical and nutrients quality with moderate overall acceptability and lower GI.","PeriodicalId":15882,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Bioactives","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80986968","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}

The rising incidence of CKD has become a leading global health problem and therefore a number of multi-field investigations are being carried on. In general, diabetes and high blood pressure (hypertension) are the most common causes of CKD. However, the importance of functional food selection and less consumption of ultra-processed food is at the forefront of the current research domain to manage CKD. To address this threat, experts suggest and recommend adopting a science-based dietary pattern, for instance, the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH). Moreover, food bioactive compounds are non-nutrients that typically occur in small quantities in foods, and hence, the selection of proper food (source) and subsequent processing is of paramount importance to attenuate the magnitude of CKD. The role of food science in managing chronic diseases could be coupled with the advancement of food engineering to minimize the detrimental effect of food processing along with the delivery of target bioactive molecules. This potentially indicates bold ambitions to innovate holistic solutions to address CKD through a proper selection of food and processing parameters.","PeriodicalId":15882,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Bioactives","volume":"146 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91506769","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}
