A novel method is proposed to estimate the equilibrium moisture content Xe at a specific temperature using the change over time in moisture content during cooking of spaghetti at different rates of temperature increase. In this method, the moisture content XvT→0 at infinitely slow heating is the equilibrium moisture content Xe at that temperature, based on the relationship between the average rate of temperature increase vT in reaching a certain temperature and the moisture content X. Xe estimated by the proposed method was almost consistent with the equilibrium moisture content estimated from the change in moisture content over time at a constant temperature, and the validity of the proposed method was verified.

The regulation of enzyme activity in the production of various fermented foods using koji mold has been optimized in many ways, and few additional refinements are apparent. This study examined light as a modifiable factor with which to adjust the enzyme activities of koji. A previous study has shown improved saccharification of wheat bran with Aspergillus oryzae RIB40 under at least 8 h of darkness. In the work reported here, light exposure had no significant effect on the saccharification activity of A. oryzae RIB1187. However, light exposure for 8 h or more continuously decreased protease-specific activity in RIB1187, as was seen previously in RIB40. This information may help manufacturers to improve fungal enzyme production, processes, and facilities.

As part of our studies on the prevention of lifestyle-related diseases by processed foods, we evaluated the xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity of barley tea. The activity of the tea (a hot-water extract of roasted barley) was not as potent as that of another roasted beverage coffee. However, the activity of the ethyl acetate-soluble substance from the extract was significantly stronger than that of coffee. Through the purification of the substance, pyrogallol was identified as the most potent compound. After establishing a quantification process for pyrogallol in barley tea, we analyzed correlations between the amount of pyrogallol, color information of grains, and the XO inhibitory capacity of tea using roasted barley grains. The findings suggest that the XO inhibitory activity of barley tea can be evaluated based on the roast degree and chroma b* of barley grains through the content of pyrogallol, although other active compounds may be present in barley tea.

The present study describes the effects of prefreezing on drying rate, surface color, internal structure, and textural properties of kiwifruit treated with microwave-vacuum drying (MVD) under controlled-temperature conditions at 20, 30, and 40 °C. The prefreezing was effective in reducing the drying time in the MVD process under properly controlled temperature conditions. The MVD samples without prefreezing had the same level of low a* value (high greenness) as the freeze-dried sample, but the prefrozen-MVD samples showed a slight browning due to discoloration during thawing in an atmospheric pressure environment. The prefreezing suppressed sample shrinkage during the MVD process and allowed the formation of a porous structure with many large voids with thin walls. Thanks to this structure, the prefrozen-MVD samples showed textural characteristics similar to the freeze-dried sample, but the porous structure was not formed in the MVD at 20 ℃, indicating that a high microwave power is required to generate a high enough vapor pressure to form the porous structure.

Neuronal activity plays a key role in the development and maintenance of the central nervous system. In cultured cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs), activity deprivation by treatment with a low concentration of KCl induces neuronal apoptosis. We found that black pepper (Piper nigrum) oleoresin significantly increased the 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide signal on activity-deprived CGNs, whereas piperine, a major compound in black pepper extract, did not. Consistently, induction of cleaved caspase-3, a hallmark of apoptosis was inhibited by black pepper oleoresin upon neuronal activity deprivation. These results show that black pepper oleoresin protects CGNs from apoptosis induced by activity deprivation, and suggest that components other than piperine might contribute to this effect.

This study aims to analyze the forces acting on the organs from the bolus during swallowing, excluding direct organ contact forces. We simulated the swallowing process of healthy individuals ingesting thickened non-Newtonian foods using a swallowing simulator based on the moving-particle simulation method. The force vectors acting on the organs and the bolus shape were extracted at each time interval. A two-dimensional graph matrix was developed to visualize the temporal and spatial relationships between force and time for comprehensive interpretation and discussion. The graph matrix revealed that the bolus originated from tongue movement and was transferred between the oral cavity and pharynx, with coordinated movements of each organ occurring in pairs with balanced forces of the tongue and other organs. Information on the organ forces may offer a novel perspective for interpreting conventional mechanical indicators such as high-resolution manometry or tongue-pressure measurements.

A 3-O-methylated-galactan WCCP-N-b from Cantharellus cibarius polarizes RAW264.7 macrophages, bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) and peritoneal macrophages (PEMs) leading to enhanced secretion of cytokine TNF-α and subsequent cytotoxic effects on HCT116 and CT26 colon cancer cells. Investigation into the mechanism of action suggests that WCCP-N-b polarizes macrophages by targeting Toll-like receptor 2 and activation of MAPKs and NF-κB signaling pathways. Overall, our results indicate that this linear 3-O-methylated-galactan inhibits colon cancer cells via conversion of M0 to M1 macrophages.

This study aimed to evaluate the physiological functions of Asparagus officinalis L. fruit extracts with 70 % ethanol. The polyphenol-concentrated ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction of the asparagus fruit extract exhibited high inhibitory activity in vitro, against α-amylase, α-glucosidase, lipase, and angiotensin-I-converting enzyme compared to the other fractions. This fraction also exhibited an anti-proliferative effect on 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, and suppressed lipid accumulation and cell viability of 3T3-L1 adipocytes; it had no such effect on mature adipocytes. This suggests that the anti-lipid accumulation activity of this fraction was due to suppression of the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, and not direct suppression of lipid accumulation. The effect of the EtOAc fraction on 3T3-L1 cells might be partially attributable to luteolin. Thus, A. officinalis L. fruits contain polyphenols which can potentially prevent lifestyle diseases, with luteolin being a promising candidate.

Goldenberry leaves are widely consumed traditionally due to the multiple health benefits attributed to them. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of foliar application of salicylic acid (SA) at different concentrations during goldenberry cultivation on the physicochemical and nutraceutical properties of the leaves. The results showed that 0.5- and 1-mM SA treatments significantly increased the levels of total phenolic compounds, flavonoids, extractable phenolic compounds and proanthocyanins in goldenberry leaves. It also had positive effects on chlorophyll levels, although higher SA concentrations tended to decrease chlorophyll content. No SA treatment affected plant growth, pH, or acidity, however, a slight decrease in the total soluble solids content was observed. Proximate analysis revealed that SA treatment did not alter fat and ash content but increased protein content and decreased total carbohydrate content. Moreover, treatment with 0.5 and 1.0 mM of SA resulted in increased levels of proline and phytosterols and exhibited higher antioxidant capacity, attributed to their rich content of bioactive compounds, particularly phenolics. Additionally, 1.0 mM SA treatment enhanced the inhibitory activity of α-amylase and pancreatic lipase, indicating its potential in managing hyperglycemic conditions. These findings highlight the nutraceutical properties of goldenberry leaves and their potential utilization as a byproduct of goldenberry cultivation, warranting further research to explore their metabolite profile and maximize their benefits.

Raw soymilk separates into two layers upon freeze-thawing. We investigated the effects of high-temperature thawing (50–100 ℃) on the freeze-thaw fractionation of soymilk. After freezing, the samples thawed at high temperatures separated into two layers with similar fractions as observed in samples thawed at low temperatures (10 ℃). As the thawing temperature increased, the separation time of the samples thawed at high temperatures decreased by less than half, when compared to those thawed at low temperatures. The ratio of the weight of the upper layer to the total weight decreased as the thawing temperature increased. The 7S and 11S proteins in soymilk could be fractionated through high-temperature thawing, similar to that through low-temperature thawing. Protein denaturation did not occur upon fractionation at higher temperatures. These results suggest that raw soymilk can be fractionated even through high-temperature thawing and may contribute to the efficient production of freeze-thaw fractionated soymilk.

In order to solve the abnormal fermentation problems caused by the slow and difficult temperature rise in the saccharification piling during the fermentation of sauce-flavor baijiu under low temperatures in winter. A special oxygen dissolving device made of stainless steel was applied in the second sorghum input of sauce-flavor baijiu, as well as the 1th and 2th rounds of saccharification piling fermentation in this study. In addition, its effects on the saccharification piling temperature, the 1 th and 2th rounds of physical and chemical indicators, microbial population, and flavor components are analyzed. The results indicate that the use of a stainless steel oxygen dissolver significantly increased the "piling core" temperature of a saccharification piling and that this improvement was highly correlated with the oxygen dissolver. Additionally, it decreased the water content, sugar concentration, and acidity of the "piling core" of the saccharification piling, all of which were negatively correlated with the height of the dissolved oxygen reactor. Furthermore, the stainless steel special dissolved oxygen device also facilitated the growth and reproduction of saccharification piling microorganisms, particularly yeast. The use of the stainless steel special dissolved oxygen device, therefore, resulted in an increase in the concentration of acetaldehyde, ethyl acetate, propanol, isoamyl alcohol, β-phenylethanol, ethyl palmitate, and other flavoring compounds. Accordingly, the stainless steel special oxygen dissolving device demonstrates a significant application potential in the 1th and 2th rounds of saccharification piling fermentation of sauce-flavor baijiu.

Brassicaceae vegetables contain glucosinolate (GSL), which is well known for its role in the plant defense system, bitter substances, and functional components. This study reported the GSL profiles of 18 GSLs in 14 Brassicaceae vegetables (kale, cabbage, kohlrabi, broccoli, cauliflower, komatsuna, pak choi, turnip, choy sum, Chinese cabbage, rutabaga, leaf mustard, leaf radish, and radish root) consisting of 64 cultivars grown in Japan. The GSL compositions showed specific trends among each species, and furthermore, there was considerable variation in the total and individual GSL contents among the cultivars and tissues of the same vegetable. Because each vegetable was grown under the same conditions, this variation was expected to primarily be due to the genetic background. It is desirable to collect additional data from commonly distributed cultivars to conduct more detailed studies on GSLs in Brassicaceae vegetables, such as investigating a negative correlation between GSL consumption and cancer risk.

In this study, we developed a method for adjusting the viscoelasticity of rice batter by adding a starch batter that was kneaded. The rice bread batter was mixed with extruder-kneaded starch batter to evaluate baking properties and measure dynamic viscoelasticity. The impacts of extruder kneading on starch structure were investigated by measuring chain-length distribution and molecular weight distribution. The starch components forming the rice batter were viewed under an optical microscope, whereas the structure of the bread batter was observed under a scanning electron microscope. Adding extruder-conditioned starch batter to rice batter was found to increase the storage modulus G' in the low-temperature region and the expansion ratio during fermentation. Kneading additive starch batter in an extruder readily reduces the molecular weight of starch, thereby decreasing the G' of bread batter.

We evaluated the environmental impact of aseptically packaged chicken using ohmic heating. Ohmic heating is a method that directly applies electric power to food. CO2 emissions were determined for each stage and compared with retort-heated food products. Retort-heated foods were assumed to be packaged by two methods: retort pouches and canned food. Replacing cans with pouches reduced CO2 emissions by 64 %. CO2 emissions were reduced by more than 80 % by replacing retort heating with ohmic heating. Additionally, the characterized results of 13 environmental areas indicate that the substitution of canned foods with aseptically packaged foods using ohmic heating can potentially reduce the environmental impact by up to 88 %. Furthermore, in the quality evaluation, ohmic-heated foods retained the same or better quality and palatability as the retort-heated foods. Aseptically packaged food products using ohmic heating can be substituted for conventional retort heating methods to reduce the environmental impact without sacrificing palatability.
