Effects of orange winemaking variables on antioxidant activity and bioactive compounds

AbstractAscorbic acid, carotenoids and polyphenols stand out among the orange juice natural antioxidants. The winemaking process affects their bioavailability and bioactivity. Antioxidant activities (AA) were estimated in different process conditions to asses those properties. The AA and their correlation with ascorbic acid, total phenolics and carotenoids content were calculated. The variables and levels analyzed were: pasteurized and natural must (PJ and NJ), pH 3.5 and 4.0 and fermentation temperatures at 10°C and 20°C. Statistically significant differences (α=0.05) were found among bioactive compounds concentrations. Antioxidant compounds concentration was higher in raw material than in orange wine. Juice pasteurization caused the major losses while subsequent vinification affects them to a lesser extent. Highest antioxidants retention was measured in wines from JN fermented at pH 3.5 and 10 °C (JN-3.5-10) followed by wines from JP and fermented at the same conditions (JP-3.5-10). AA determined by DPPH showed a positive and close correlation with FRAP, while ABTS showed a low correlation with former assays. Juice pasteurization process and fermentation temperature influenced bioactive compound reduction which correlates with the AA variation.

Automated static image analysis as a novel tool in describing the physical properties of dietary fiber

Abstract The growing interest in the usage of dietary fiber in food has caused the need to provide precise tools for describing its physical properties. This research examined two dietary fibers from oats and beets, respectively, in variable particle sizes. The application of automated static image analysis for describing the hydration properties and particle size distribution of dietary fiber was analyzed. Conventional tests for water holding capacity (WHC) were conducted. The particles were measured at two points: dry and after water soaking. The most significant water holding capacity (7.00 g water/g solid) was achieved by the smaller sized oat fiber. Conversely, the water holding capacity was highest (4.20 g water/g solid) in larger sized beet fiber. There was evidence for water absorption increasing with a decrease in particle size in regards to the same fiber source. Very strong correlations were drawn between particle shape parameters, such as fiber length, straightness, width and hydration properties measured conventionally. The regression analysis provided the opportunity to estimate whether the automated static image analysis method could be an efficient tool in describing the hydration properties of dietary fiber. The application of the method was validated using mathematical model which was verified in comparison to conventional WHC measurement results.

Effect of dietary fiber on the bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds of mango, papaya and pineapple fruits by an in vitro digestion model

The presence of dietary fiber (DF) in the food matrix of some tropical fruits plays an important role in the release and absorption of its bioactive compounds, such as phenolic compounds (PCs). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the DF fractions in mango cv. ‘Ataulfo’, papaya cv. ‘Maradol’ and pineapple cv. ‘Esmeralda’, on the bioaccessibility of their PCs and antioxidant capacity (AOXC) under an in vitro digestion model. The highest PCs content and AOXC was found in mango (274.30 mg GAE/100 g FW), followed by papaya (212 mg GAE//100 g FW), and pineapple (107.63 mg GAE/100 g FW), respectively. About 50% of the total PCs in all fruits was released at gastric phase, increasing closer to 60% at intestinal phase in mango and pineapple. However, the highest content of PCs associated to DF was found in mango (2.48 mg GAE/100 g FW) compared with papaya DF fractions (0.96 GAE/100 g FW) and pineapple (0.52 GAE/100 g FW). The presence of DF in mango, papaya and pineapple did not represent a major limitation on the bioaccessibility of its PCs according to the in vitro digestion model used in this study.

Survey of trace element and dietetic fiber composition of “Leblebi” which is a local snack food consumed in Turkey

Abstract In Turkey and several Middle East countries' people consume “leblebi” which is a traditional snack food made from chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.). Chickpea products are highly nutritive and a cheap food for human consumption and have become an essential part of daily diets in the world. The present study aims to determine the chemical, nutritional and dietary composition of fifty leblebi samples marketed in Turkey. Protein values of the leblebi ranged from 19.4 to 23.9% dehulled and 20.3 to 20.8% for nondehulled leblebi while a value of 19.1% was recorded for chickpeas. Mineral results showed that Potassium (K) was the most abundant element in leblebi ranging from 6514 to 14431 mg/kg. The amount of dietary components neutral detergent fibre (NDF), acid detergent fibre (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL) and cellulose did not vary much between the samples analyzed.

Transmission oflight through individually formed fiber- reinforced composite post (Yksilöllisesti muotoillun kuitukomposiittinastan valonläpäisevyys)

Kuitukomposiitista valmistettuja juurikanavanastoja käytetään apuna, kun restauroidaan juurihoidettuja ja kruunuosastaan runsaasti kudosta menettäneitä hampaita. Kliinisen kestävyyden kannalta on tärkeää että nasta kiinnittyy hampaaseen hyvin. Tarvittavan valomäärän saattaminen valokovetuksella pimeään juurikanavaan on vaikeaa ja sen vuoksi nastojen kiinnittämiseen suositellaan kaksoiskovetteista yhdistelmämuovisementtiä, joka kovettuu vain osittain valolla. Jotta nasta ja sementti polymeroituisivat hyvin, nastan hyvä valonläpäisy- ja sirontakyky olisi eduksi. Tehdasvalmisteisten nastojen valonläpäisykyvyn on todettu heikkenevän niiden pituuden kasvaessa. Yksilöllisesti muotoilluilla kuitukomposiittinastoilla, joilla on osittaislomittaismuoviverkostorakenne (semi-IPN) polymeerimatriisi, on todettu tehdasvalmisteisia kuitunastoja parempi sidos nastan ja yhdistelmämuovisementin välillä. Yksilöllisesti muotoilluilla kuitunastoilla näyttäisi myös olevan hyvä valonjohtamiskyky, mutta lisätutkimuksia tarvitaan. Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitettiin yksilöllisesti muotoillun kuitukomposiittinastan (EverStick Post) ja kahden tehdasvalmisteisen (Relyx Fiber Post ja GC Fiber Post) kuitukomposiittina stan valonläpäisevyyttä sekä pituuden vaikutusta niiden valonläpäisykykyyn laboratorio- olosuhteissa. Tutkimushypoteesi oli, että nastojen valonläpäisykyky heikkenee niiden pidentyessä. Tutkimuksessa kaikista nastatyypeistä valmistettiin eripituisia nastoja (4, 8, 12 ja 16 mm). Nastoille tehtiin samanpituiset testikappaleet muoviputkesta ja polyvinyylisiloksaanista, ja nastat asetettiin niiden sisään. Tämän jälkeen nastoja kovetettiin valokovettimella 10 sekuntia, ja läpi päässyt valo mitattiin MARC Resin Calibrator -laitteella. Kontrollina käytettiin tyhjää testikappaletta ilman nastaa. Keskeiseksi tulokseksi saatiin, että yksilöllisesti muotoillulla kuitukomposiittinastalla oli kaikissa pituusryhmissä muita nastoja merkitsevästi parempi valonläpäisykyky. Tulokset osoittivat myös, että kaikkien nastojen valonläpäisevyys laski merkitsevästi nastan pituuden lisääntyessä aina 12 millimetriin asti. Tulosten perusteella yksilöllisesti muotoillulla kuitukomposiittinastalla on tehdasvalmisteista nastaa parempi valonläpäisykyky. Kuitukomposiittinastojen valonläpäisykyky heikkenee niiden pituuden kasvaessa aiempien tutkimusten mukaisesti. Jatkotutkimuksissa tulisi selvittää, miten valonläpäisevyys ja siroaminen vaikuttavat nastan ja sementin polymeroitumiseen ja siten kliiniseen lopputulokseen.
