Abstract
The nutritional quality of third-generation snacks prepared from rice flour by extrusion can be improved by the addition of polyphenols such as catechins, which are known to be more stable at high temperatures. However, the extrusion parameters can impact the breakdown and release of bioactive compounds and decrease the catechin bioaccessibility. Accordingly, this study investigated the impact of different extrusion parameters, including different extrusion temperatures (110, 135, and 150 °C) and moisture content prior to extrusion (27 and 31%), on the breakdown and bioaccessibility of catechin-enriched snacks during in vitro dynamic digestion using the Human Gastric Simulator (HGS). The extrusion parameters did not significantly impact most measured variables by themselves, indicating that within the tested ranges, any of the processing conditions could be used to produce a product with similar digestive behavior. However, the interaction of extrusion parameters (temperature and moisture content) played a significant role in the snack behavior during digestion. For example, the combination of 27% moisture content and 150 °C extrusion temperature had higher catechin bioaccessibility and higher starch hydrolysis than the other treatments. Overall, these findings suggest that the processing conditions of third generation snacks enriched with catechin can be optimized within certain ranges with limited modifications in the digestive properties.

Abstract
In this study, extruded snacks enriched with tomato pomace powder (TPP) at ratios of 5, 10, 15, and 20% (w/w) were prepared based on some preliminary experiments. The effect of tomato pomace addition to extruded snacks on the total phenolic content, total antioxidant capacity, contents of lycopene and phenolics, as well as their in vitro bioaccessibility; and additionally, physical, textural and sensory properties of the samples were investigated. According to the results, increasing levels of TPP in snacks significantly increased the content of individual phenolics including gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, chlorogenic acid, rutin and quercetin. Similarly, increased amount of TPP in snacks enhanced the bioaccessible protocatechuic acid, chlorogenic acid, rutin and quercetin as well as lycopene (p < 0.05). TPP incorporated snacks displayed lower expansion indices, water absorption index (WAI) and water solubility index (WSI) and lightness; but had higher hardness, redness and yellowness values than the control. However, snacks had acceptable physical and sensory properties when enriched with 10% of TPP. The results suggest that tomato pomace can be added as a functional ingredient to improve the nutritional value of snack products.

The effect of Vaccinium bracteatum Thunb. leaves addition on antioxidant capacity, physicochemical properties, and in vitro digestibility of rice extrudates. J Food Sci 2021; 86:4730-4740. [PMID: 34519044 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.15911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 08/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Vaccinium bracteatum Thunb.leaves (VBTL) are a traditional Chinese herbal medicine with potential natural pigments and antioxidants. Its application information on extrusion is limited. In this study, to increase the usage of foods containing VBTL, rice-based extrudates with VBTL were investigated. The extrusion was performed at a wide temperature range (60-140°C) and with different VBTL supplementations (3%-10%). The extrudates with 10% VBTL showed a significant decrease in total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and antioxidant activity upon extrusion. TPC and TFC increased with the rise of barrel temperature. The VBTL color was stable during the wide-temperature extrusion process. The bioactivities of the extrudates were positively correlated with the VBTLsupplement (R = 0.943-0.989). In addition, different addition levels of VBTL significantly changed the water absorption index (WAI), water solubility index (WSI), pasting properties, and in vitro starch digestibility of the extrudates. Moreover, extrudates with 3% VBTL showed the highest WAI and peak viscosity but the lowest in vitro starch digestibility. These results may suggest that rice extrudates with a low supplement of VBTL have an acceptable color and may be used as functional additives for high antioxidant and low glycemic response diets. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The results showed that the Vaccinium bracteatum Thunb. leaves (VBTL) color and antioxidation were stable during the wide-temperature extrusion process. Extrusion processing can be used to enlarge the usage of VBTL and simplify its traditional processing method. Applying VBTL to the process of extrusion appears to be a suitable method of producing value-added and low glycemic response extrudates.

Food Res Int 2021; 148:110591.

Abstract
Extruded polyphenol-rich by-products like mango bagasse (MB) could be used to manufacture functional confections. However, few reports have assessed the extrusion impact on MB polyphenols within a food matrix. This research aimed to evaluate the impact of extrusion on the bioaccessibility, intestinal permeability, and antioxidant capacity of phenolic compounds (PC) from non-extruded and extruded MB-added confections (EMBC and MBC, respectively). The inhibition of 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radicals and in silico approaches were used to evaluate the antioxidant capacity. MBC displayed the highest gastric bioaccessibility (%) of xanthones and flavonoids, whereas selective release of gallic acid, mangiferin, and quercetin glucoside was shown for EMBC. Lower PC' apparent permeability coefficients were found in EMBC compared to MB (0.11 to 0.44-fold change, p < 0.05). EMBC displayed the highest antioxidant capacity by the DPPH method for the non-digestible fraction, being mangiferin the highest in silico contributor (-4 kcal/mol). Our results showed that the extrusion process helps release selective phenolics from MBC, which increases their bioaccessibility and intestinal permeability.

Abstract
In this paper, significant attention is paid to the retention of phenolics in extrudates and their health effects. Due to the large number of recent articles devoted to total phenolic content (TPC) of input mixtures and extrudates, the technological changes are only presented for basic raw materials and the originating extrudates, and only the composites identified has having the highest amounts of TPC are referred to. The paper is also devoted to the changes in individual phenolics during extrusion (phenolic acids, flavonoids, flavonols, proanthocyanidins, flavanones, flavones, isoflavons, and 3-deoxyanthocyanidins). These changes are related to the choice or raw materials, the configuration of the extruder, and the setting the technological parameters. The results found in this study, presented in the form of tables, also indicate whether a single-screw or twin-screw extruder was used for the experiments. To design an extrusion process, other physico-chemical changes in the input material must also be taken into account, such as gelatinization of starch; denaturation of protein and formation of starch, lipids, and protein complexes; formation of soluble dietary fiber; destruction of antinutritional factors and contaminating microorganisms; and lipid oxidation reduction. The chemical changes also include starch depolymerization, the Maillard reaction, and decomposition of vitamins.

Abstract
Mulberry (Morus alba L.) leaves (MLs), originally used to feed silkworms, have recently been recognized as a food ingredient containing health-beneficial, bioactive compounds. In this study, the extrusion process was applied for the enhancement of the amount of extractable flavonoids from MLs. Extrusion conditions were optimized by water solubility index, total phenolic content, and total flavonoid content (TF) using response surface methodology, and antioxidative stress activities were evaluated in macrophage cells. According to the significance of regression coefficients of TF, the optimal extrusion parameters were set as barrel temperature of 114 °C, moisture feed content of 20%, and screw speed of 232 rpm. Under these conditions, the TF of extruded ML reached to 0.91% and improved by 63% compared with raw ML. Fifteen flavonoids were analyzed using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatograph coupled with photodiode array detection and quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-PDA-QTOF/MS), and the extrusion resulted in increases in quercetin-3-gentiobioside, quercetin-3,7-di-O-glucoside, kaempferol-3,7-di-O-glucoside, rutin, isoquercitrin, and moragrol C. Besides, regarding antioxidative activity, extruded ML water extract inhibited the production of H2O2-induced reactive oxygen species and attenuated nuclear morphology alterations in macrophage cells. The findings of this study should be useful in food processing design to improve the extractable functional compounds in MLs.

Abstract
This study developed and carried out an in vitro evaluation of nutraceutical formulations composed of potentially probiotic Limosilactobacillus fermentum (L. fermentum 139, L. fermentum 263 or L. fermentum 296), quercetin and/or resveratrol. L. fermentum strains had counts of >9 log CFU/g and contents of QUE and RES of >200 µg/mg in formulations after freeze-drying. Formulations with QUE and RES protected L. fermentum during exposure to in vitro acidic stomach conditions. L. fermentum strains had counts of >6 log CFU/g on day 60 and/or 90 of refrigeration storage. Contents of QUE (>29%) and RES (>50%) in formulations were potentially bioaccessible. Higher counts of L. fermentum and higher contents of QUE and RES were found in formulations stored under refrigerated rather than under room temperature. All nutraceutical formulations had antioxidant properties. Combinations of probiotic L. fermentum and QUE and/or RES should be an innovative strategy to develop added-value nutraceutical formulations.

Abstract
Cynarin is one of the biologically active functional components present a wide range of pharmacological applications. Herein, we reported the fabrication and surface properties investigation of a new highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for the detection of cynarin. The electrochemical sensors were fabricated in several steps; the first being the synthesis of bi-thiophene derivatives-based monomers 3,3'-bithiophen (M1); 2-methoxy-5-carbaldehyde-[3,3'-bithiophene] (M2) and 2-((2-methoxy-[3,3'-bithiophen]-5-yl)methylene)malononitrile) (M3) followed by electrochemical polymerization on a glassy carbon electrode after which multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and gold nanoparticles (GNP's) were electrodeposited layer-by-layer on the polymer coating to obtain multilayer electrochemical sensors. The morphological properties of the formed polymers were evaluated using SEM analysis and the apparent contact angles to preview the changes in surface properties after the functionalization of monomers and therefore their effects on the detection of cynarin. Analytical parameters such as the accumulation time and pH of the PBS solution which influence the sensitivity of the electrochemical sensors were optimized. Under the optimal conditions the GCE/P3/MWCNT/GNP's showed a wide range of analyte concentrations (1 to 100 μM and 0.01 to 1 μM) and detection limit of 0.0095 using pulse differential voltammetry. In addition, the electrochemical sensors showed good reproducibility, stability and selectivity and they were used successfully for the determination of cynarin in real solutions.

Abstract
It is possible to enhance the functional properties of extruded products with the inclusion of fruit and vegetable by-products. Onion skin, a rich source of quercetin and fiber, is considered as waste in the industry and can be used as an alternative ingredient to improve the nutritional value of the extruded products. Three levels (3, 6, and 9%) of onion skin powder (OSP) were added to wheat flour and compared with control (0% OSP). The effect of the extrusion process on accessible quercetin, total phenolic content, and antioxidant activity of the samples were investigated. In addition, carbohydrate digestibility analyses were conducted for the products. Mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) results indicated that increasing the OSP level increased the quercetin content. The process caused the release of the entrapped quercetin from OSP, which was revealed by significantly higher quercetin levels for the extrudates. Some of the quercetin was lost during in vitro digestion process. Increasing the OSP level increased antioxidant activity and total phenolic contents of the samples. Total phenolic contents decreased significantly after the processing, yet antioxidant activities were not affected. The extruded products showed high amounts of rapidly available glucose (69.5 g/100 g). The OSP enhancement did not change the carbohydrate digestibility of products. The results indicated that the extrusion process could increase the level of accessible bioactive ingredients, and the level of functional compound addition can be optimized further.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Cynarin is an artichoke phytochemical that possesses a variety of pharmacological features including free-radical scavenging and antioxidant activity. The origin of artichoke species appears to be Mediterranean region. Two of these species, globe artichoke (Cynara cardunculus var. scolymus L.) and cardoon (Cynara cardunculus var. altilis DC), are widely cultivated and consumed. This vegetable, as the basis of the mediterranean diet, has been used as herbal medicine for its therapeutic effects since ancient times. Therefore, this study was performed to determine genotoxic and antigenotoxic effects of cynarin against MMC (mitomycin C) and H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) induced genomic instability using chromosome aberrations (CAs), sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs), micronucleus (MN), and comet assays in human lymphocytes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Lymphocytes obtained from two healthy volunteers (1 male and 1 female) were exposed to different concentrations of cynarin (12-194 μM) alone and the combination of cynarin and MMC (0.60 μM) or cynarin and H2O2 (100 μM, only for comet assay). RESULTS Cynarin alone did not induce significant genotoxic effect in the CA, SCE (except 194 μM), MN, and comet assays. The combination of some concentrations of cynarin and MMC decreased the frequency of CAs, SCEs and MN induced by MMC. Furthermore, the combination of cynarin and H2O2 reduced all comet parameters at all the concentrations compared to H2O2 alone. While the highest concentrations of cynarin significantly decreased mitotic index (MI), the combination of cynarin and MMC increased the reduction of MI induced by MMC alone. CONCLUSION All the results obtained in this study demonstrated that cynarin exhibited antigenotoxic effects rather than genotoxic effects. It is believed that cynarin can act as a potential chemo-preventive against genotoxic agents.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the influence of passion fruit by-product (PFBP) and fructooligosaccharides (FOS) on the viability of Streptococcus thermophilus TH-4 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus LGG in folate bio-enriched fermented soy products and their effect on probiotic survival and folate bio-accessibility under in vitro simulated gastrointestinal conditions during storage of the products at 4 °C for up to 28 days (at days 1, 14, and 28). Kinetic parameters and folate contents before and after fermentation were also evaluated. Four different bio-enriched soy products in which the two microorganisms were used in co-cultures were studied and PFBP and/or FOS were added at 1 g/100 g, except for the control product. No differences (p < 0.05) between the fermented soy products (FSP) were observed for the maximum acidification rate (Vmax) and the time to reach the Vmax (Tmax) or pH 5.5 (Tf), indicating that the use of PFBP and/or FOS did not affect the fermentation kinetic parameters. Only Lb. rhamnosus LGG retained the desired viability (>8 log CFU/mL) during storage, whereas St. thermophilus TH-4 populations decreased by day 14 reaching counts between 6.4 and 5.5 log CFU/mL by day 28. The folate content of all FSP increased after fermentation and the simultaneous presence of PFBP and FOS stimulated the co-culture to increase folate production. Folate content in all FSP decreased during storage. Lb. rhamnosus LGG was recovered at the end of the simulated digestion, but PFBP and/or FOS did not affect recovery. The folate content increased during the gastrointestinal assay for all FSP, especially for FSP without supplementation, suggesting an in vitro increase of folate bio-accessibility. Therefore, the bio-enriched probiotic FSP presented a great potential as an innovative functional food by delivering probiotic microorganisms and providing 14% of the recommended daily folate intake. The folate content of the FSP might be increased during gastrointestinal stress conditions, which could contribute to increase the folate bio-accessibility in the gut.
