Edible insects and their ingredients are considered as a novel, sustainable high-quality nutritional source for potential use food feed. However, they highly oxidizable potentially unsafe. Dehydration of removes moisture extends shelf life. Moreover, it is prerequisite and/or pretreatment some extraction technologies ingredient production. Drying (sun drying, smoke roasting, freeze drying oven drying) have been used to dry insects, both at laboratory industrial level. Different pretreatments...

Gastrointestinal digestion (GID) is a physiological process that transforms the stability, bioaccessibility and antioxidant activity (AOX) of polyphenols from blackberries (Rubus spp.). This study aimed to investigate effect INFOGEST® GID protocol on phenolic AOX Mexican wild (WB) commercial (CB) blackberries. After GID, total anthocyanin contents in decreased by ≥68% ≥74%, respectively. More than 40 phenolics were identified during GID; most them degraded completely digestion. had negative...

Chia (Salvia hispanica) has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its high protein content, among other nutritional benefits. This study aims evaluate the and antinutritional composition, profile quality of two chia seeds grown Mexico UK, as well assess impact that occurs during extraction fractionation. Protein content samples showed an increase after degumming, defatting, extraction, obtaining concentrates from Mexican (MPC) British (BPC) with 88.32 89.20 g/100 g dw,...

Abstract Pulses are consumed worldwide with different processing methods, which may impact their digestibility, protein quality, and composition. This study aims to analyze the effect of extrusion, baking, cooking on nutritional parameters; bioactive compounds; antioxidant capacity (AOX) 10 selected pulses. Sodium dodecyl sulphate‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) revealed that thermal causes modifications main storage proteins in Heating decreased saponin content from 12% 44%...

Oat (Avena sativa) is one of the most cultivated and consumed cereals worldwide. Recognized among for its high protein content (12%-24%), it makes an excellent source bioactive peptides, which could be modified during processes such as heating gastrointestinal digestion (GID). This work aims to evaluate impact heat treatment on proteolysis oat proteins evolution antioxidant peptide released in vitro static GID, terms comparative analysis between cooked concentrate (COPC) non-heated (OPC)...

Abstract Background and Objectives Soy, wheat, oats are widely consumed crops globally, but variation between cultivars processing methods can produce products of varying protein quality. This study cooked two different oats, soy compared indices quality as well quantified differences in antinutritional factors. Findings Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) was highest lowest wheat samples, with cooking having the most impact on PER. Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) greater than...

This study evaluated the acute effect of black bean protein hydrolysate (BPH) on postprandial glucose and insulin levels in adults with normal tolerance (NGT) or prediabetes. First, an silico predictive digestion was performed twenty peptides identified BPH. Then, 28 NGT prediabetes were randomized to a parallel double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Following consent, participants randomly assigned one two groups, placebo, 5 g To evaluate effects BPH, oral test administered, blood samples...

BACKGROUND: Glioblastoma is the most common and deadly cancer type in central nervous system. Following conventional treatments these patients, prognosis remains poor due to high tumor recurrence. Anthocyanins from natural sources, such as blackberries (Rubus spp.), have demonstrated anti-proliferative effects on glioma cell lines. However, anthocyanins present wild been poorly studied cells. OBJECTIVE: We aimed determine profile of two species Mexican (R. liebmannii R. palmeri), their...

Abstract. Wild blackberries (Rubus) are fruits that grow in inaccessible high mountain areas, which has made it difficult to study their chemical and nutritional composition. The objective of this research was evaluate the composition macro- micro-nutrient profile wild species Rubus genus collected Sinaloa, Mexico. Botanical samples were identified deposited Herbarium Institute Biology UNAM. Subsequently, carbohydrates, lipids minerals evaluated. as R. liebmannii, coriifolius palmeri. In...

El verdugo americano (Lanius ludovicianus) es un ave depredadora con gran adaptabilidad dietética, aunque los estudios sobre sus hábitos predatorios son escasos. De enero a mayo del 2023, hicimos recorridos transecto de 218 m en el límite agrícola-urbano occidental Guadalajara, México, para registrar presas americano. Documentamos nuevos registros depredación tres especies exóticas: la cucaracha Surinam (Pycnoscelus surinamensis), cochinilla suave (Porcellio laevis) y serpiente ciega...

The black soldier fly (BSF) has garnered the attention of scientific community due to its outstanding efficiency in transforming organic waste into raw materials that can be incorporated value chain. A bibliometric and bibliographic review was conducted elucidate pivotal role played by bioconversion matter shaping sustainable circular economy systems. analysis revealed larvae (BSFL) have proven effective common waste, such as household livestock yielding valuable biomass. Despite these...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated during mitochondrial oxidative metabolism as well in cellular response to xenobiotics, cytokines, and bacterial invasion, it indicates possible damage. In tumor cells the accelerated produces a high number of ROS. Brain tumors represent third cause death cancer patient's woldwide. Gliomas most frequents neuroepitelial tissue, they graded on scale from I IV based their malignancy. The alternative medicine offers some options natural origin...
