Biochemical quality comparison of forced air dried osmo-dehydrated cashew apple products infused with spice mixture and sugar

Cashew apple is a pseudo-fruit available abundantly during harvest seasons (March to July) and majority of them goes as waste because of their perishability and poor shelf life. However, the absence of distinct exocarp and seeds are some of the potential advantages for processing utility. Hence, in the present study, osmo-dehydrated products were prepared from two maturity stages i.e. breaker and ripe stages using sugar, spice mixture and were referred to as cashew fig and chew, respectively. The drying efficiency and product recovery were conquered by cashew chew and fig, respectively. Based on the biochemical and organoleptic qualities, ripe fruits werefound suitable for preparation of chew and fig. The tannin content responsible for acridity got reduced (chew of ripe stage 1.18 to 0.53 mg/g and chew of breaker stage 1.85 to 0.68 mg/g) during the process of osmo- dehydration. Excluding total antioxidant activity, all other biochemical properties were found to be improved compared to their respective controls.

Effects of spices mixture and cooking on phytochemical content in Ethiopian spicy hot red pepper products.

Spicy hot red pepper, the most popular spice in Ethiopia, is also locally known as berbere, which is highly valued for its pungency, flavor, and color. The spicy hot red pepper powder is used to flavor shiro and other stews, as well as different forms of condiments. The aim of this study was to measure the phytochemical content of raw spices (black cumin, garlic, ginger, and cardamom) and control hot red pepper (HRP), as well as the raw and cooked experimental and commercial spicy hot red pepper products. The samples were analyzed for phytochemical content using a spectrophotometer. Compared to raw experimental spicy hot red pepper, raw spices, and HRP, raw commercial spicy hot red pepper exhibited the highest bioactive phytochemicals. The cooked commercial spicy hot red pepper or sauté had the highest total flavonoid content (TFC) and total carotenoid content (TCC). Similarly, cooked experimental spicy hot red pepper contained the highest levels of total phenolic content (TPC) and β-carotene. With r values ranging from 0.24 to 0.65, the TPC and TFC of raw spices were correlated with antioxidant activity. There was a significant correlation between TCC and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) (r = .71), 2, 2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) (r = .95), and ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) (r = .76), as well as between β-carotene and DPPH (r = .69), FRAP (r = .69), and ferrous ion chelating activity (FICA) (r = .78). This study verified that raw spices and their mix with hot red pepper are good sources of bioactive phytochemicals with radicals scavenging abilities in Ethiopian diets.

Innovative high power short time microwave finish drying cum decontamination method for producing hot curry spice mix (Garam Masala) with enhanced quality characteristics

Garam Masala is a mixture of ground spices commonly used in Indian and some Asian cuisines. Garam Masala risks microbial contamination due to poor hygienic conditions during various stages, including harvesting, processing, and storage. Moreover, its phytochemicals and antioxidant capacity need to be enhanced for better application in curry preparation and other recipes. The Garam Masala generally has a high microbial load and relatively higher moisture content (10-12% wet basis). The product having such a high moisture content is not shelf stable for longer durations due to its vulnerability to microbial growth. Therefore, an innovative high power short time finish drying cum decontamination method using microwaves (2.45 GHz) for Garam Masala was developed. Garam Masala was subjected to three different levels of microwave power density (10, 15, and 20 W/g) for 60 s. The best microbial load treatment protocol was also implemented, which consisted of applying 20 W/g for a duration of 60 s, followed by 6 cycles of 10 s “ON” and 5 s “OFF”. Drying kinetics were studied, and the Page model was found to be the best-fitting model. Microwave treatment exhibited a significant (p < 0.05) reduction in the total aerobic mesophilic bacterial count (2.79 log) and Bacillus cereus (1.83 log). The results also demonstrated that 15 W/g treatment enhanced the total phenolics, flavonoids content, and antioxidant capacity. No significant color changes were found between the untreated and treated samples. Therefore, it was concluded that a high power short time microwave finish drying cum decontamination method can control the microbial load and enhance the chemical characteristics in Garam Masala.

Galangal-Cinnamon Spice Mixture Blocks the Coronavirus Infection Pathway through Inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 MPro, Three HCoV-229E Targets; Quantum-Chemical Calculations Support In Vitro Evaluation.

Natural products such as domestic herbal drugs which are easily accessible and cost-effective can be used as a complementary treatment in mild and moderate COVID-19 cases. This study aimed to detect and describe the efficiency of phenolics detected in the galangal-cinnamon mixture in the inhibition of SARS-CoV-2's different protein targets. The potential antiviral effect of galangal-cinnamon aqueous extract (GCAE) against Low Pathogenic HCoV-229E was assessed using cytopathic effect inhibition assay and the crystal violet method. Low Pathogenic HCoV-229E was used as it is safer for in vitro laboratory experimentation and due to the conformation and the binding pockets similarity between HCoV-229E and SARS-CoV-2 MPro. The GCAE showed a significant antiviral effect against HCoV-229E (IC50 15.083 µg/mL). Twelve phenolic compounds were detected in the extract with ellagic, cinnamic, and gallic acids being the major identified phenolic acids, while rutin was the major identified flavonoid glycoside. Quantum-chemical calculations were made to find molecular properties using the DFT/B3LYP method with 6-311++G(2d,2p) basis set. Quantum-chemical values such as EHOMO, ELUMO, energy gap, ionization potential, chemical hardness, softness, and electronegativity values were calculated and discussed. Phenolic compounds detected by HPLC-DAD-UV in the GCAE were docked into the active site of 3 HCoV-229E targets (PDB IDs. 2ZU2, 6U7G, 7VN9, and 6WTT) to find the potential inhibitors that block the Coronavirus infection pathways from quantum and docking data for these compounds. There are good adaptations between the theoretical and experimental results showing that rutin has the highest activity against Low Pathogenic HCoV-229E in the GCAE extract.

Decentralized core-shell Au/Ag bimetallic nanostructures prepared via green approach for catalytic and antimicrobial applications

Synthesis of noble metallic nanomaterials via green routes using various plant extracts has witnessed a remarkable rise in applications and research interest over the past decade. These biogenic routes are devoid of toxic chemicals, harsh preparation environments, and external capping agents, coupled with their cost-effectiveness, have attracted researchers to adopt green chemistry in nanotechnology. In this study, we synthesized Au, Ag, and Au/Ag nanoparticles (NPs) using a facile method employing an extract derived from a mixture of spices. Optical, morphological, and structural analysis is carried out using UV-visible spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), Fourier- transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction studies (XRD), respectively. The Zeta potential of the prepared NPs was determined using dynamic light scattering spectroscopy (DLS). Optimization of pH to 10 and 8 was performed for the synthesis of Ag and Au NPs, respectively, crucial for precise tuning of their optical absorption spectra. Finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations validate the experimental findings. The Ag NPs exhibit primarily uniform and spherical size and shape, whereas the Au NPs display a variety of shapes including spheres, rods, and triangular plates. This variation is attributed to the influence of pH and concentration of precursors. TEM analysis confirmed the formation of Au/Ag bimetallic core-shell nanostructures (NSs), characterized by a decentralized gold core. XRD confirmed the formation of FCC crystallites. FTIR spectra identified the possible biological functional groups responsible for reduction and capping. Furthermore, a negative zeta potential exceeding 20 mV confirmed the stable formation of NPs. These NPs were capped by negatively charged functional groups, thereby avoiding agglomeration. Both mono and bimetallic NSs exhibited enhanced catalytic activity for reducing 4-nitrophenol in the presence of sodium borohydride (NaBH4). Furthermore, Ag and Au/Ag NPs have exhibited antibacterial properties against specific bacteria, which are discussed in detail.

In controlled storage, loss of ALA, EPA, and DHA was 55, 14, and 11%. At T2 concentration, antioxidant compounds of MKO significantly altered the lipid oxidation in burgers. After storage in T2, loss of ALA, EPA, and DHA was 3.6, 1.98, and 1.71%. POV of 90 days stored control, T1, T2, T3, and T4 was 3.42, 1.55, 0.63, 0.41, and 0.31 (MeqO2/kg). Induction period of fish oil, MKO, in all levels was 2.45, 64.28, 7.33, 13.42, 18.39, and 62.84 hrs. Color flavor and texture score of 90 days stored T2 was 91, 90, and 86% of total score. MKO and fish oil can be used at 50:50 concentrations to formulate fish burgers of acceptable sensory properties.

Formulation of a virgin coconut oil based spicy spread and its physico- chemical properties

Virgin coconut oil (VCO) fits the designation of a very important functional food and is expected to show a dramatic growth in the Indian market. This study aims to evaluate the physico- chemical characteristics of a spicy fat spread, formulated using virgin coconut oil, trans- free fat (TFF) and spice mixtures along with emulsifiers. The effect of varying the VCO: fat ratio (100:00; 30:70; 50:50; and 70:30) on the quality parameters of the spicy spread such as moisture, fat, protein, and ash were studied. The phase separation, colour characteristics, rheological quality, melting profiles by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and textural properties (spreadability) were also studied. Results show that the moisture of the spicy spreads ranged between 1.59% and 1.72%, fat 49–50%, protein 18–20%, and ash content ranged between 0.21% and 0.22%. The prepared spreads showed marginal oil separation at 25 °C (ambient) and higher amounts at 37 °C (accelerated) temperatures. The consistency or hardness measured in Newton (N) showed an increase with an increase in the amount of fat and simultaneous decrease with increased amounts of VCO. Similar trends were observed with the spicy spread's viscosity, yield stress and consistency index. Principal component analysis (PCA) indicated the presence of two clusters positioned in nearby locations of the PCA biplot. The first cluster comprised of attributes like spreadability and VCO aroma while the second had glossiness and smoothness. PCA and sensory analysis results showed that sample containing virgin coconut oil and TFF in equal proportions (50:50) was the most acceptable spread with respect to spreadability and overall sensory acceptability.

Application and Effect of Pediococcus pentosaceus and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum as Starter Cultures on Bacterial Communities and Volatile Flavor Compounds of Zhayu, a Chinese Traditional Fermented Fish Product.

Zhayu is a type of traditional fermented fish product in China that is made through the fermentation of salted fish with a mixture of cereals and spices. Inoculation fermentation was performed using Pediococcus pentosaceus P1, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum L1, and a mixture of two strains, which were isolated from cured fish in Hunan Province. Compared with the natural fermentation, inoculation with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) accelerated the degradation of myosin and actin in Zhayu, increased the trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-soluble peptide content by about 1.3-fold, reduced the colony counts of Enterobacteriaceae and Staphylococcus aureus by about 40%, and inhibited their lipid oxidation. In the texture profile analysis performed, higher levels of hardness and chewiness were observed in the inoculation groups. In this study, the bacterial community and volatile flavor compounds were detected through 16S high-throughput sequencing and headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). Inoculation with L. plantarum L1 reduced around 75% abundance of Klebsiella compared with the natural fermentation group, which was positively correlated with 2,3-Butanediol, resulting in a less pungent alcohol odor in Zhayu products. The abundances of 2-pentylfuran and 2-butyl-3-methylpyrazine were increased over threefold in the L1 group, which may give Zhayu its unique flavor and aroma.
