Effect of defatted Lagenaria siceraria (Molina) Standley seed flour as a fat replacer on physicochemical, technological, and sensory properties of beef patty.

Defatted Lagenaria siceraria seed flour (DLSSF) was obtained from defatted seed cake, dried, and ground through a sieve of 500 μm and characterized. A 2 × 4 factorial design (two flour hydration rates and four fat substitution rates) was used to produce a low-fat beef patty by replacing fat with DLSSF. Beef kidney fat was used to formulate the control sample.

Anti-listerial peptides from a marine FTL7: production optimization, characterizations and molecular docking studies.

Unlabelled: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) with potent anti-listerial activity were characterized from a novel marine FTL7. A Box-Behnken statistical experimental design was used to study the combined impact of culture conditions on the production of AMPs by FTL7. The conditions optimized by statistical experimental design were 34.

Complete genome sequencing and strain characterization of a novel marine Bacillus velezensis FTL7 with a potential broad inhibitory spectrum against foodborne pathogens.

Bacillus velezensis FTL7 which exhibited potent antimicrobial peptide producing capacity was isolated from a marine sediment sample of the West Coast region, South India, and characterized through experimental and genomic analysis approaches. FTL7 showed potential antimicrobial activity against a broad range of foodborne pathogenic bacteria like Listeria monocytogenes Scott A, Bacillus cereus (ATCC 11778), Salmonella Typhimurium (MTCC 1251), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923), and Escherichia coli (MTCC 443). It also exhibited strong inhibitory activity against Kocuria rhyzophila (ATCC 934) and Bacillus subtilis subsp.

Malabar sole () skin as promising source of type I acid and pepsin solubilized collagens with potential bioactivity.

Unlabelled: Fish skin is one of the major non-edible by-products formed during fish processing. This investigation focused on the sustainable valorization of Malabar sole (MS) skin for collagen, which can be utilized as potential alternative of mammalian collagen. Acid and pepsin solubilized collagen (ASC and PSC) were successfully isolated from MS skin with a yield (%, dry weight basis) of 49.

Production of egg white hydrolysate by digestion with pineapple bromelain: optimization, evaluation and antioxidant activity study.

Unlabelled: Chicken egg white is known to be an excellent source of good quality proteins to make hydrolysate with potential bioactive properties. Enzymatic digestion is a well-known method to produce protein hydrolysates; however, the type of enzyme determines the bioactive potential of the protein hydrolysates due to difference in their catalytic specificity. In this study, process optimization, production and evaluation of whole egg white protein hydrolysate (WEWPH) using pineapple bromelain through the Box-Behnken design were carried out.
