This study aimed to compare the bioaccessibility of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in naturally and artificially enriched milk and investigate the potential mechanisms involved. The results indicated that the DHA in naturally enriched milk (NEM) had a higher bioaccessibility (76.9%) and a lower...

Phytosterols reduce cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein concentrations in humans. The use of phytosterols is restricted due to their high melting temperature, low water solubility, and chalky taste. In addition, due to its structure, it is easily oxidized and its absorption and bioavailability...

The study estimated the bioaccessibility of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in organic milk (ORG), compared to conventional (CNV) by the INFOGEST in vitro protocol. Total proteins, lipids and lactose were evaluated, the determination of essential minerals was performed by FAAS and phosphorus by...

Whey protein concentrate (WPC) and maltodextrin were used to microencapsulate polyphenols extract from organic coffee husks by spray drying. The microparticles were characterized and evaluated for their influence on the release, bioaccessibility, and antioxidant capacity of polyphenols in the...

Low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate (LMCS) has attention for enhanced bioavailability and bioactivity compared to native CS. We optimized H₂O₂/ ascorbic acid (Vc) degradation conditions to prepare LMCS from chicken, bovine, and shark cartilages. Degradation kinetics models and chemical...

In this study, we successfully prepared Octenyl succinic anhydride debranched starch particles (OSADBSP) and whey protein-coated OSADBSP (WP-OSADBSP) for loading curcumin (Cur) through ethanol precipitation and electrostatic interaction. Compared with the low encapsulation efficiency (EE) (29.50%)...

Lycopene-loaded emulsions were formulated with whey protein isolate (WPI) covalently modified with high methoxylated pectin (HMP) or/and chlorogenic acid (CA) prepared by dry heating or/and alkali grafting. Covalent WPI products were confirmed by SDS-PAGE and degree of graft/CA binding equivalent...

Over the past few years, the market for vegetarian and vegan products has been one of the fastest growing. There is an increasing trend of consumers limiting their meat intake and, therefore, a huge demand for vegan products. Substitutes for milk - plant-based drinks - are the most popular,...

Disposition of flavonoid phytonutrients in elder berry extract was assessed by LC-MS or DART TOF-MS. Serum-urine cyanidin from lozenges were monitored by LC-MS in 6 individuals whereas DART TOF-MS was done to determine serum cyanidin and other flavonoids when delivered as a slow-dissolve lozenge or ...
