Food is preserved using antiseptics or antibiotics. The former are synthetically produced simple compounds that often have natural correlates, and they make up no more than 0.2% of the product. Antibiotics, or substances produced by microorganisms, are used in very small, yet effective, doses. ...
The principle of food pairing is based on the taste experience, which is composed of the smell, the taste on the tongue or in the mouth (sweet, salty, bitter, sour, umami), and the consistency of the food has. The taste itself is formed by the combination of the different flavoring su...
The proposed scheme of molecular modeling, applied to biologically active compounds in food, could provide a deeper insight into their function in vivo, which is directly related to their structure and spectroscopic properties. It could also support the experimental qualitative analysis, based on peak...
A liquid is composed of a mixed concentration of gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide. The commonly used methods for the process of degassing are by reducing the pressure or by boiling while acoustics treatment can perform this function with minimum temperature change. Upon applicatio...
composed of 563 unique compounds. The potential number of interactions is 87,192 and 92,143 for disjoint and joint versions of the graph. We defined several similarity subnetworks comprising food-drug similarity, drug-drug similarity, and food-food similarity networks. A unique part of the graph...
(known as wort) that will be further fermented into beer. The insoluble unhydrolyzed part, also known as solid BSG, is collected after the lautering step in the mash tun. BSG is composed of mainly barley husks, pericarp, and seed coat fractions. The nutrient composition of BSG depends on...
The use of probiotics is crucial in the pursuit of a healthy microbiome. In addition to aiding digestion, these beneficial bacteria also strengthen the immune system, which has far-reaching effects on general health. Not only are you helping your gut health, but you’re also laying the ground...
The most enduring symbol is the latte stone, a megalithic structure used to elevate houses in the precolonial period. First built around C.E. 800, latte stones are large coral blocks composed of two pieces: a trapezoidal stone pillar called a haligi, and a hemispherical cap called a tasa...
Investigation on the physiochemical nature involved in the production of fatty acid catalyzed by the vesicles is of importance to understand the digestion of lipid. In this paper, the effects of crowding degree, which was constructed by polyethylene glycol (PEG), on the autocatalytic production of ...
FoodOn is an open-source, comprehensive ontology resource composed of term hierarchy facets that cover basic raw food source ingredients, process terms for packaging, cooking and preservation, and an upper-level variety of product type schemes under which food products can be categorized, outlined in...
