Frequency versus conductivity relationships of food cell system, based on impedance measurements as characterized by polarization effects the Maxwell−Wagner type at intact membrane interfaces, are presented. The electrical properties a biological (represented resistor and capacitor) responsible for dependence total system alternating current frequency. Based an equivalent circuit model single plant cell, spectrum in tissue (potato, carrot, banana, apple) was determined frequency range...

Mass production of insects is calling for environmentally optimised and economically efficient insect value chains. It a complex task considering great variety in species, scales, feed formulations, etc. Taking challenge environmental impact clarification, few studies highlight on life cycle assessment (LCA) production. The current study aimed to systemise 24 selected previous establish modular framework the determination contribution sustainability factors Reviewing published according...

Inactivation and sublethal injury of Lactobacillus plantarum at different pulsed electric field (PEF) strengths total energy inputs were investigated to differentiate reversible irreversible impacts on cell functionality.Lactobacillus was treated with PEF in model beer (MB) determine critical values strength input for inactivation. Below values, metabolic activity membrane integrity initially reduced without loss viability. Above however, damage occurred. Presence nisin or hop extract,...

To examine cellular injuries occurring in cells of Escherichia coli (Gram-negative bacteria) and Lactobacillus rhamnosus (Gram-positive response to a high-intensity ultrasound treatment using classical plate count technique flow cytometry.According results, E. (D-value 8.3 min) was far more sensitive than L. 18.1 their the intensity applied (20 kHz, 17.6 W). The dye precursor carboxyfluorescein diacetate (cFDA) could freely diffuse across cytoplasmic membrane intact Gram-positive bacteria...

Objectives: Nocturnal blood pressure (BP) monitoring is essential for evaluating cardiovascular risk and guiding treatment decisions. However, the standardized narrow-fixed nighttime period between 10 p.m. 6 a.m. may not accurately reflect individual sleep schedules. This pilot study aimed to investigate comparability actual time in bed (TIB) regarding BP assessment. Further, our goal was evaluate clinical relevance of observed differences. Methods: A total 30 participants underwent 24 h...

Accurate blood pressure (BP) measurement is crucial for the diagnosis, risk assessment, treatment decision-making, and monitoring of cardiovascular diseases. Unfortunately, cuff-based BP measurements suffer from inaccuracies discomfort. This study first to access feasibility machine learning-based estimation using impedance cardiography (ICG) data. We analyzed ICG data 71 young healthy adults. Nine different learning algorithms were evaluated their performance against quality controlled,...

Abstract Because of expected nutritional, sensorical and health benefits, non‐thermal processing has the potential to satisfy growing demand for minimally processed foods can simultaneously provide safe stable foods. Since 60's use high intensity pulsed electric fields in food repeatedly been demonstrated e.g. pasteurization or cell permeabilization. The technical advance field power equipment during last years legitimates approach re‐considering some these processes. In this work...

Abstract Hydrostatic high pressure technology is relatively new to food industry and more considered as an alternative traditional preservation methods like heat processing. The inactivation of bacteria, spores, viruses enzymes has been demonstrated in numerous papers, various schemes for modelling the experimental data have suggested. Although there are similarities kinetics it generally agreed that process safety assessment with its typical indicator organisms cannot simply be transferred...

Abstract High pressure thermal sterilization is an emerging technology that can produce uniform, minimally processed foods of high quality, better than heat treatment alone. At present, it has not yet been successfully introduced into the food industry, possibly due to less known inactivation mechanism resistant bacterial spores. This study developed and used a new analytical tool improve understanding spore mechanisms at pressures temperatures. The generated data were exemplarily...

Insect biomass production is recognised as one of the potential solutions for problem a lack traditional protein sources (most feed are imported in Europe). It perceived to be utilised more suitable source proteins food and Western countries within next decades. High-moisture extrusion concentrate water mixtures results development fibrous intermediates, meat analogues. Hardness composition such intermediates were comparable meat. Inclusion 15-40% insect concentrates (both Alphitobius...
