In this study, okara dietary fiber samples were prepared through a combination of solid-state fermentation using Aspergillus oryzae and ultrasonication. Subsequent infrared UV–visible spectral analyses revealed that such treatment resulted in an increase the oligosaccharide content these enhanced cleavage hydrogen bonds. Scanning electron microscopy X-ray evaluation further confirmed changes structural makeup SDF (soluble fiber) relative to control samples. Following treatment, soluble...

Nattokinase is an alkaline serine protease secreted by natto during fermentation. Despite its good thrombolytic effect, it intolerant to gastrointestinal conditions and easily digested degraded into polypeptides, oligopeptides, amino acids. However, whether these peptides inhibit fat-digesting enzymes other biological activities remains unknown. To explore the bioactivity of produced through nattokinase degradation, was subjected simulated digestion in tract, 41 small were obtained...

This study observed the effects of pulsed light (PL) on germination and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) production brown rice analyzed correlations among glutamic (Glu) content, glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) activity, GABA content in germinating rice. Both were increased by exposure to PL, this effect was evident when exposed PL immediately after being soaked. The group had significantly higher Glu than control check (CK) which unexposed during peaked at 18 h 24h group, 12 6 earlier CK...

Peanut sprout is a high-quality healthy food, which not only has beneficial effects, but also higher phenol content than peanut seed. In this study, was treated with five cooking methods, namely boiling, steaming, microwave heating, roasting, and deep-frying, the content, monomeric composition, antioxidant activity were determined. The results showed that, compared unripened sprout, total (TPC) flavonoid (TFC) decreased significantly after ripening processes, highest retention of phenols...

Ara h 1 is the most abundant sensitizing protein in peanuts; it has high thermal stability and difficult to degrade. The peanut sprout a high-quality, natural food that various beneficial effects lower allergenicity than seeds. In this study, ultrasonication (US) of sprouts was used alter their content. We determined optimal parameters for US process were 35 °C temperature, 30 min duration, 240 W power, 100 kHz frequency. After 5 days germination, protease activity control (blank) group...
