The aim of this study is to determine the total iodine content in Korean abalone () and to investigate the bioavailability of iodine using an in vitro method. This research paper focuses on total iodine quantification in abalone () and its components (viscera and muscle) using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Additionally, an in vitro bioavailability study explored iodine absorption potential.

Rising global food prices and the increasing prevalence of food insecurity highlight the imprudence of food waste and the inefficiencies of the current food system. Upcycling food by-products holds significant potential for mitigating food loss and waste within the food supply chain. Food by-products can be utilized to extract nanocellulose, a material that has obtained substantial attention recently due to its renewability, biocompatibility, bioavailability, and a multitude of remarkable properties.

However, the application of capsaicin has been limited in the food industry due to its strong pungency, odor, and low solubility in water. Therefore, a multilayer nanoemulsion with chitosan and hyaluronic acid was developed for masking its odor and taste and improving the physicochemical stability against the surrounding environment.

As a prospective alternative to conventional techniques such as total volatile basic nitrogen, peroxide value, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance analysis, the CSA system has garnered significant attention. This study evaluated the quality of edible-coated food products using both conventional and CSA methods in order to demonstrate that the CSA approach is a feasible alternative to conventional methods.

Lack of stability of sanitizers in the presence of organic content and lack of targeted binding of sanitizers to biofilms can reduce effectiveness of sanitizers and increase the risk of contamination of food. Therefore, this study evaluated the development, characterization, and application of gelatin microgel based chlorine delivery system for improving both stability of chlorine based sanitizer and targeted binding of sanitizer to biofilms.

Europium β-diketone chelates (4,4,4-trifluoro-l-(2-thienyl)-l,3-butanedione) trioctylphosphine europium (III) (Eu(TTA)(P(Oct))) were incorporated inside the nanocavities that existed in hierarchical MSP (Eu@MSP). The MSP and Eu@MSP on mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) did not show any toxic effect.

The highest reduction in iodine content was found in boiled abalone (64.95%), followed by steamed (32.
