Chlorella and Spirulina are the two of most well-known microalgae genus.Both genus have a significant content proteins, vitamins, pigments, fatty acids, sterols, among others, which make their production/application by food industry quite interesting.Chlorella is eukaryotic microorganism, whereas (cyanobacteria) prokaryotic microorganism.The aim this review was to provide an overview on microalgae, particularly as alternative source functional foods, nutraceuticals, supplements, in following...
Physical pretreatments play a crucial role in reducing the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass, facilitating its conversion into fermentable sugars for bioenergy and chemical applications. This study critically reviews physical pretreatment approaches, including mechanical comminution, irradiation (ultrasound, microwave, gamma rays, electron beam), extrusion, pulsed electric field. The discussion covers mechanisms action, operational parameters, energy efficiency, scalability...
Chlorella is a genus of green algae (single-cell) that shows spherical shape. The cultivation microalgae, such as Chlorella, promising due to technical easiness this type bioprocesses. production microalgae at industrial scale started in the early 1960s.
Bacteria in the genus Bacillus are source of several enzymes current industrial interest. Hydrolases, such as amylases, proteases, and lipases, main consumed worldwide have applications a wide range products processes. Fermentation processes by subtilis using cassava wastewater substrate reported technical literature; however, same combination microorganisms this culture medium is limited or nonexistent. In paper, amylase, protease, lipase production ten strains previously identified...
This study investigated the microwave vacuum drying (MWVD) of low-moisture part-skim mozzarella cheese and its impact on protein quality, aroma profile, texture. Cheese snacks showed a high content, corresponding to more than 50% their dry matter. The MALDI-TOF analysis identified similar profile before after drying, indicating no structural modifications. Moreover, MWVD did not in vitro digestibility cheese, approximately 87-88%. On other hand, natural volatile was changed. Aromatic...
