However, the mechanism by which the main active ingredients inhibit α-glucosidase, a crucial target for hypoglycemic drugs, remains unclear. In this research, we employed ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap/MS) to analyze the chemical composition of ethanol extracts of dried American ginseng (EDAG) and red American ginseng (ERAG). Subsequent in vitro experiments were conducted to assess the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of EDAG and ERAG. Comparative enzymatic kinetics analyses were performed as well. Molecular docking analysis revealed the interaction between the differential saponins and α-glucosidase, further validated through verification experiments. Among the total 47 identified saponins, 9 were characterized by OPLS-DA as differentially expressed between EDAG and ERAG. Notably, ERAG exhibited more robust α-glucosidase inhibitory activity than EDAG. Enzyme inhibition kinetics revealed that both products displayed reversible mixed-type inhibition on α-glucosidase, suggesting their inhibitory effects are associated with saponin composition. Molecular docking studies demonstrated that all 9 differential saponins exhibited inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase. Verification studies substantiated ginsenosides like Rb<sub>1</sub>, Rd, and others as inhibitors of α-glucosidase. These findings contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of processed American ginseng and provide valuable insights for developing glucose-lowering functional foods.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":564,"journal":{"name":"Food Biophysics","volume":"19 3","pages":"688 - 700"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141529541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The vitro digestion experiments showed that the CUR was progressively released from the nanoparticles under stomach, small intestine, and colon conditions.

Despite extensive studies on their metabolomic and volatilomic profiles, research on the physical properties of finger lime pearls, especially their diameter, colour, and mechanical properties, remains limited. Understanding these attributes is crucial for quality assessment, consumer preference, and marketability in the food industry. This study aims to investigate the diameter, visual appearance, and mechanical properties of finger lime pearls from three different varieties (‘Champagne Red’, ‘Emerald’, and ‘Chartreuse’), comparing them with similar foods and assessing their implications for culinary use and market value. Colour properties were analysed using the CIELAB system, and mechanical properties were assessed through texture analysis, focusing on bursting strength and strain. Finger lime pearl diameters ranged between 1.62 and 3.60 mm, aligning with sizes of comparative foods. Colour analysis revealed distinct differences among varieties. Mechanical properties, particularly bursting strength, and strain, varied significantly across varieties, with ‘Champagne Red’ and ‘Chartreuse’ showing higher bursting strengths. These properties suggest different culinary applications and potential for a grading system based on sensory experience. The study highlights the importance of physical and mechanical properties in determining the quality and marketability of finger lime pearls. It introduces a novel framework for assessing these attributes, suggesting that finger lime varieties can be differentiated and graded for culinary use based on pearl diameter, colour, and mechanical properties. This research lays the groundwork for future sensory-based studies and the development of quality grading systems for finger limes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":564,"journal":{"name":"Food Biophysics","volume":"19 3","pages":"784 - 794"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11483-024-09848-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141373552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
