Staling of bakery products especially gluten-free products is a challenge on the development of these products. For retarding staling of gluten-free bread, maltogenic amylase (MAase) at concentrations of 8.2, 45, and 82 mg/ml was encapsulated into beeswax (BW) at 1%, 2.5%, and 4% levels. Results showed the treatment with 8.2 mg/ml MAase and 2.5% beeswax had the highest encapsulation efficiency (42.04%) and chosen for subsequent experiments. The size of encapsulated particles was 362.70 nm and had a zeta potential of -15.35 mV. Surface morphology of encapsulated MAase was almost spherical with layered appearance. The free and encapsulated MAase with the activity of 5.2 µmol/min were used in gluten-free batter and breads, respectively. In the rheological tests, batters containing free and encapsulated MAase showed lower cross over point than control batter (without enzyme or wall material) (59 and 53 Hz, respectively). Encapsulated MAase contained bread had darker crust, whiter and softer crumb, and more aerated structure in comparison with free MAase loaded one. Both breads containing MAase as free or encapsulated had higher moisture content and water activity in crust and crumb than control bread. However, bread with free MAase had softer crumb after four days of storage, and bread with encapsulated MAase had higher sensorial acceptability than other breads after 2 and 4 days of storage.Child malnutrition is one of the biggest problems in developing countries with higher level of food insecurity. Pakistan is 5th largest producer of date fruit; therefore, its processing and products should be explored in various dimensions. Being rich source of minerals and sugars, it can contribute in weaning foods in a good manner. In current study, three blends were prepared with specific proportions of spray-dried date powder and rich in specific proportions. They were compared with each other and control (free of date powder). The nutritional profile of the formulations revealed that 100 g of each formulation included all macronutrients in compliance with the requirements of Food and Agriculture Organization for weaning formulations; moreover, they are enriched with minerals due to presence of date powder. The iron contents reached up to 12.74 ± 0.16 mg/100 g. The phosphorus, zinc, and potassium contents also increased with the increase in date powder subsequently. Physicochemical properties exhibited in compliance with the requirement of the weaning foods. The protein quality was assessed both in vivo and in vitro. Amino acid profiling indicated that the limiting amino acid in F1 and control were lysine but in F2 and F3 were threonine. This is suggested that date powder might contain good quality protein that was further explained in biological studies, the formulations that contained higher amount of date powder reveled better PDCAAS score 86.76 ± 4.5, true digestibility 84 ± 4.36, biological value 69.45 ± 0.69, net protein utilization 73.82 ± 1.46, and protein efficiency score 1.18 ± 0.07. The sensory evaluation revealed that F2 showed better result in overall acceptability. Thus, date powder is suggested to be used as good constituent that can fortify mineral contents and sugar contents of the weaning foods.Increasing consumption of green tea is attributed to the beneficial effects of its constituents, especially polyphenols, on human health, which can be varied during leaf processing. Processing technology has the most important effect on green tea quality. This study investigated the system dynamics of eight catechins, gallic acid, and caffeine in the processing of two varieties of tea, from fresh leaves to finished tea. It was found that complex biochemical changes can occur through hydrolysis under different humidity and heating conditions during the tea processing. This process had a significant effect on catechin composition in the finished tea. The potential application of visible and near-infrared (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy for fast monitoring polyphenol and caffeine contents in tea leaves during the processing procedure has been investigated. It was found that a combination of PCA (principal component analysis) and Vis-NIR spectroscopy can successfully classify the two varieties of tea samples and the five sis for improving the content of quality components and effective controlling processes.Carbonyl compounds, especially acetaldehyde in white wines which have a detrimental effect on the aroma and overall stability of wine, were studied.. Seven wine samples of Grüner Veltliner were produced of one input raw material of grapes, all with different dosage of SO2. The sulfur dioxide was maintained at a fixed level during the maturation process and sampled at six months. Vismodegib The grapes were processed, fermented, aged for three months in stainless steel tanks, prepared for bottling, bottled, and then aged in the bottle. In the samples taken, the volume of acetaldehyde, pyruvate, 2-oxoglutarate, diacetyl, and acetoin was determined by HPLC with diode array detection. Individual forms of SO2 were determined by iodometric titration. The wine that was matured on the lees and without the addition of SO2 (variant (0/0/0)) contained the lowest amount of all compounds measured. For example, the volume of acetaldehyde for this wine was 2.7 mg/L at the end of the experiment. The results of the sensory analysis showed that such wine could compete with wines with higher SO2 content without any problems.Glutaminase of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens has been used to synthesize the immunomodulatory γ-D-glutamyl-L-tryptophan (γ-D-Glu-L-Trp) and the kokumi-active γ-D-glutamyl peptides. The optimum yield of γ-D-Glu-L-Trp was 55.76 mM in corresponding to a minimum yield of by-product (γ-D-Glu-γ-D-Glu-L-Trp) in the presence of 75 mM D-Gln and 100 mM L-Trp. The glutaminase has a low Km values for the donors (D-Gln and L-Gln5.53 and 0.98 mM), but high ones for the acceptors (L-Trp, L-Phe, L-Met, L-Val and γ-[D-Glu]( n =1,2,3)-L-Val/L-Phe/L-Met, ranging from 32.51 to 193.05 mM). The highest Km value appearing when n = 2 (γ-[D-Glu]( n =0,1,2)-L-Val/L-Phe/L-Met) suggested the rising difficulty for synthesis when the number of donor increases in the reaction mixtures. The γ-[D-Glu]( n =1,2,3)-L-Val/L-Phe/L-Met at 5 mM can impart the blank chicken broth an enhancing monthfulness, thickness, and umaminess taste.
