Viola E, Buzzanca C, Tinebra I, Settanni L, Farina V, Gaglio R, Di Stefano V. A Functional End-Use of Avocado (cv. Hass) Waste through Traditional Semolina Sourdough Bread Production. Foods 2023; 12:3743. [PMID: 37893636 PMCID: PMC10606098 DOI: 10.3390/foods12203743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
In recent years, a main goal of research has been to exploit waste from agribusiness industries as new sources of bioactive components, with a view to establishing a circular economy. Non-compliant avocado fruits, as well as avocado seeds and peels, are examples of promising raw materials due to their high nutritional yield and antioxidant profiles. This study aimed to recycle avocado food waste and by-products through dehydration to produce functional bread. For this purpose, dehydrated avocado was reduced to powder form, and bread was prepared with different percentages of the powder (5% and 10%) and compared with a control bread prepared with only semolina. The avocado pulp and by-products did not alter organoleptically after dehydration, and the milling did not affect the products' color and retained the avocado aroma. The firmness of the breads enriched with avocado powder increased due to the additional fat from the avocado, and alveolation decreased. The total phenolic content of the fortified breads was in the range of 2.408-2.656 mg GAE/g, and the antiradical activity was in the range of 35.75-38.235 mmol TEAC/100 g (p < 0.0001), depending on the percentage of fortification.

Reduction in the Cocoa Spontaneous and Starter Culture Fermentation Time Based on the Antioxidant Profile Characterization. Foods 2023; 12:3291.

Abstract
In current systems, the fermentation spontaneous process produces fermented beans of heterogeneous quality due to the fermentation time. This study demonstrated that the fermentation time should be reduced. For this purpose, the physicochemical parameters, antioxidant profile, and volatile compounds were characterized in two types of fermentation (spontaneous and starter culture) for 168 h in cocoa from three altitude levels. Multivariate analysis (cluster and PCA) was used to discriminate the fermentation stages. We found three stages in all fermentations, where the first two stages (0 h to 96 h) were characterized by a higher antioxidant potential of the cocoa bean and the presence of desirable volatile compounds such as acids, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and esters, which are precursors of cocoa aroma; however, prolonged fermentation times affected the antioxidant profile of the bean. In addition, the use of a starter culture facilitates the release of compounds in a shorter time (especially alcohols and esters). It is concluded that it is necessary to reduce the fermentation time under these conditions in the region of Amazonas.

Abstract
Edible insects have the potential to become one of the major future foods. In fact, they can be considered cheap, highly nutritious, and healthy food sources. International agencies, such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), have focused their attention on the consumption of edible insects, in particular, regarding their nutritional value and possible biological, toxicological, and allergenic risks, wishing the development of analytical methods to verify the authenticity, quality, and safety of insect-based products. Edible insects are rich in proteins, fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals but also seem to contain large amounts of polyphenols able to have a key role in specific bioactivities. Therefore, this review is an overview of the potential of edible insects as a source of bioactive compounds, such as polyphenols, that can be a function of diet but also related to insect chemical defense. Currently, insect phenolic compounds have mostly been assayed for their antioxidant bioactivity; however, they also exert other activities, such as anti-inflammatory and anticancer activity, antityrosinase, antigenotoxic, and pancreatic lipase inhibitory activities.

Isolation, Identification, Optimization of Baker’s Yeast from Natural Sources, Scale-Up Production Using Molasses as a Cheap Carbohydrate Source, and Evaluation for Bread Production.

Abstract
(1) Background: Bangladesh must has to spend a large amount of foreign currency to import commercial baker’s yeast every year. We could save money by finding a potential Saccharomyces cerevisiae from natural sources compatible with commercial baker’s yeast production. (2) Methods: Grapes, rice, pineapples were collected, processed, and inoculated on YMA plates and incubated at 30 °C for 48 h. Then 11 single morphologically well-formed colonies were isolated, purified, and identified, three as S. cerevisiae, three as S. rouxii, three as S. bisporus, and two as S. exigus based on standard cultural, morphological, and biochemical characteristics. Identified S. cerevisiae (designated as G2, P5 and R3) were then assessed for CO2 production as a measure of their baking potential during bread production and compared with two commercial strains (designated as C1 and C2). (3) Results: Isolate-G2 produced the maximum of 1830 mm3 of gas, whereas C1, C2, R3, and P5 produced 1520, 1680, 770, and 610 mm3 gas, respectively. No strain produced H2S which is associated with an off-flavor and unpleasant taste. These isolates showed maximum cell density at a pH range of 4–5.5 in 4–16% molasses broth at 30 °C after 4 days of incubation and maximum 4.75 × 109, 7.9 × 108, 1.472 × 1010, 2.08 × 1010 and 5.24 × 109 CFU mL−1 were produced by C1, C2, G2, P5 and R3, respectively. Isolate-G2 was found to have the most potential, whereas isolate-R3 and P5 have satisfactory potential. (4) Conclusions: G2 could be a good candidate for commercial trials.

Abstract
The native Australian green plum (Buchanania obovata) is a small fruit that grows in the northern parts of the Northern Territory and Western Australia. The fruit belongs to the family Anacardiaceae, which includes the other agriculturally important fruit mangoes, pistachios and cashew nuts. The green plum is a favored species of fruit for the Aboriginal communities and an important bush food in the Northern Territory. To date, only minimal scientific studies have been performed on the green plum as a food. This review is about plant foods in the family Anacardiaceae and the key nutritional compounds that occur in these fruit and nuts. It looks at the more traditional nutrient profiles, some key health metabolites, allergens and anti-nutrients that occur, and the role these foods play in the health of populations. This provides a guide for future studies of the green plum to show what nutritional and anti-nutritional properties and compounds should be analyzed and if there are areas where future studies should focus. This review includes an update on studies and analysis of the green plum and how its nutritional properties give it potential as a food for diet diversification in Australia.
