Valorization of food byproducts has attracted recently considerable attention. Citrus fruits provide considerable non-edible residues reach 80% in juice production. They are considered agri-wastes to comprise peel, pulp and seeds. Previous investigations have focused on peel and pulp to recover value-added products. The review presents for the first-time phytochemical composition of Citrus seeds’ products, i.e., oil and extracts. Fatty acids, phytosterols and tocopherols amounted as the major bioactives in Citrus seeds, in addition to limonoids, dietary fibers and flavonoids. Besides their nutritional values, these chemicals have promising applications including production of biodiesel, food enhancers and antioxidants, especially from mandarin and grapefruit seeds. Optimum conditions of the different Citrus seeds’ valorization are discussed to improve extraction yield and lessen environmental hazards of solvent extraction. This review presents the best utilization practices for one of the largest cultivated fruit seeds worldwide and its different applications.Effects of enzymatic hydrolysis on the structural, rheological, and functional properties of mulberry leaf polysaccharide (MLP) were characterized in this study. The enzymatic hydrolysis of MLP raised the carbonyl, carboxyl, and hydroxyl groups from 7.21 ± 0.86 to 10.08 ± 0.28 CO/100 Glu, 9.40 ± 0.13 to 17.55 ± 0.34 COOH/100 Glu, and 5.71 ± 0.33 to 8.14 ± 0.24 OH/100 Glu, respectively. Meanwhile, an increase in thixotropic performance and structure-recovery capacities were observed in hydrolyzed MLP, while the molecular weight, surface tension, apparent viscosity, and thermal stability were decreased. VX-702 concentration An improved antioxidant activity of MLP was also achieved after the enzymatic degradation. Moreover, the hydrolyzed MLP showed greater ability to promote the growths of Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium adolescentis, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, and Lactobacillus acidophilus and the production of acetic acid, butyric acid, and lactic acid. The results demonstrate that enzymatic modification is a useful approach for polysaccharide processing.Arsenic (As) due to its widespread has become a primary concern for sustainable food production, especially in Southeast Asian countries. In that context, the present review presented a comprehensive detail of the available literature marking an assortment of As-induced impacts on wheat. The conclusive findings of past research suggest that As tends to grossly affect the germination, elongation, biomass, grain yield, and induce oxidative stress. Several human studies are suggestive of higher cancer risks (>1 × 10-6) due to the ingestion of wheat grains. However, the body of proof is limited and the scarcity of information limited understanding about tolerance mechanism in wheat against As. Therefore, the paper provided a reference from tolerance mechanism based studies in other crops like rice and maize. The generated knowledge of arsenomics would pave the way for plant breeders to develop resistant varieties for As to ensure sustainable food production.Applications of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) are limited due to the poor stabilities. In this work, we proposed using silk fibroin peptide (SFP) to bind with C3G and form nanocomposites (134.73 ± 4.51 nm) for stabilization. When interacted with C3G, the fluorescence of SFP contributed by tyrosine and phenylalanine amino acids was quenched, which was proved a static quenching with the β-sheet structure of SFP unchanged. With the further exploration of the physicochemical stabilities of C3G in the nanocomposites, we demonstrated that the tolerance of C3G to the alkaline environment and the retention ratio of C3G in various concentrations of metallic ion Cu2+ were significantly improved. In addition, the heat resistance of C3G in SFP at 80 °C was also enhanced with up to an increase of 2.5 times for the average half-life of C3G. Our results shed light on SFP could enhance physicochemical stabilities of C3G with maintaining its antioxidant activity.An untargeted lipidomic profiling approach based on ultra – performance liquid chromatography – time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF-MS/MS) was successfully used to study the origin of commercial Pinot noir wines. The total wine lipids were extracted using a modified Bligh-Dyer method. In all wine samples, the total lipids were less than 0.1% (w/w) of wine. The wines analyzed consisted of 222 lipids from 11 different classes. 48 commercial Pinot noir wine samples were collected from producers in Burgundy, California, Oregon, and New Zealand. Lipidomic data was studied using advanced multivariate analysis methods, random forest, k-nearest neighbor (k-NN), and linear discriminant analysis. The overall classification accuracy was 97.5% for random forest and 90% for k-NN. Wine lipids showed a strong potential for classifying wines by origin, with the top 58 lipids contributing to the discrimination. This information could potentially be used for further study of the impacts of lipids on wine characteristics and authenticity.The gold electrode was functionalized with anti-bisphenol A (BPA) aptamer and captured the BPA as analyte. By dropping the aptamer-modified magnetic Fe3O4/Au nanoparticles solution onto the electrode, a BPA molecule attaches to many aptamers that are in contact with a large number of Fe3O4/Au nanoparticles. The modified electrode were transferred to a solution containing Ag+ ions. Fe3O4/Au nanoparticles reduce the Ag+ ions to Ag0. A potential scan was applied for the oxidation of the Ag0-loaded magnetic nanoparticles to the AgCl. The magnitude of the stripping anodic signal of the Ag0 was related to the concentration of the BPA. The assay shows a detection limit of 0.6 fmol L-1 and linear range of 1 fmol L-1-150 pmol L-1 and. The applicability of the aptasensor is measured by its successful use in the sensing BPA in water, milk and juice samples and measuring BPA migration from different commercial plastic products.A facile in-tube solid phase microextraction (in-tube SPME) procedure was developed to enrich ractopamine before HPLC-UV analysis. This was achieved by employing amide groups modified polysaccharide-silica hybrid monolith as an efficient sorbent. The monolith was synthesized by a simple reaction with agarose oxide and tetramethoxylisane, followed by the modification of amide groups via subsequent ring opening, “thiol-ene” click and dehydration reactions. Under the optimized extraction conditions, the enrichment factors for ractopamine, dopamine, clenbuterol, para-methylphenol and phenol were determined to be 50.5, 32.2, 4.8, 2.1 and 1.8, respectively. The monolithic column has ideal selectivity for ractopamine. Coupled with HPLC-UV, this method demonstrated a linearity within 2.0-800 ng/g for ractopamine with spiking in pork muscles (R2 = 0.9958). The LOD was 0.64 ng/g (S/N = 3) and recoveries ranged from 85.2 to 108.1% (n = 3). This approach provides a feasible way for analysis of trace ractopamine in biological samples.
