Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to optimize the extraction of protein from terebinth seed byproducts, analyzing the effects of pH, temperature, and time to enhance both protein purity and yield.
  • Optimal conditions for maximum purity were found at pH 8, 50°C for 60 minutes, while maximum yield was achieved at pH 12, 46.4°C for 102.4 minutes.
  • The resultant proteins (TRP and TRY) demonstrated useful properties for food applications, including good oil absorption and stability, but showed low antioxidative capacity and potential issues with digestibility.

In the current study, optimization of milk thistle protein extraction parameters was carried out in terms of purity and yield. In addition, the characterization of proteins isolated from milk thistle seeds was conducted. The optimal conditions for achieving the highest purity of protein (MTP) from milk thistle seeds were identified as extraction pH 9.

This research aimed to explore the potential utilization of protein (P) and fiber (F) extracted from cold-pressed hot pepper seed oil byproduct (HPOB) in the enhancement of the rheological properties, emulsion stability, and oxidative stability of a low-fat salad dressing with 10% oil content. The assessment involved the examination of several aspects, including the physical qualities such as emulsion stability, rheological behavior, and particle size as well as the microstructure and oxidative stability. It is worth mentioning that all emulsions had desirable characteristics, including shear-thinning behavior characterized by a consistency index ranging from 6.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of adding cold-pressed okra seed oil byproduct (OSB) to the muffin formulation, as a partial substitute for wheat flour, on the nutritional, physicochemical, rheological, textural, and sensory properties of muffins. The carbohydrate, protein, oil, moisture, and ash contents of OSB were 44.96, 32.

Although the Med-Diet is a healthy diet model, it is affected by current dietary habits. Therefore, new foods with improved nutritional value should be developed to respond to the needs of people following the Med-Diet. This study was focused on developing high-β-glucan flat bread (bazlama) with a relatively lower GI.

In this study, four different drying techniques, namely, hot air drying (HAD), vacuum drying (VD), ultrasound-assisted vacuum drying (UAVD), and freeze-drying (FD), were applied to blueberries. The drying times of blueberries were 1290, 1050, and 990 min for HAD, VD, and UAVD, respectively, meaning that ultrasound application significantly reduced the drying time. All dried samples except those with FD showed lower total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity than fresh samples.

This study aimed to investigate the potential use of cold-pressed hot pepper seed oil by-product (HPOB) in a low-fat salad dressing to improve its rheological properties, emulsion, and oxidative stability. The total phenolic content (TPC), the 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, and CUPRIC reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) values were 317.4 mg GAE/100 g, 81.

This study aimed to investigate the potential use of cold-pressed coconut oil by-products (COB) as a low-cost alternative source for plant-based drink and ice cream production. Firstly, a plant-based drink was produced from cold-pressed coconut oil by-products (COB drink) and compared with a commercial coconut drink. The fat, protein, and zeta potential values of coconut drink obtained from COB were higher than those of the commercial samples.

This study aims to investigate the potential of the use of cold-pressed tomato seed oil by-products in a low-fat salad dressing as potential probiotic food carriers to improve the oxidative stability and emulsion stability as well as the rheological properties. The low-fat salad dressing emulsions were formulated with cold-pressed tomato seed by-product (TBP) and ELB90. The optimum low-fat salad dressing formulations found were determined as 10 g/100 g oil, 0.

This study aimed to investigate the potential usage of exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Leuconostoc lactis GW-6 species as an emulsifier in a low-fat mayonnaise by the formation of a complex with whey protein isolate (WPI) to improve rheological properties, emulsion, and oxidative stability. For the determination of rheological properties, the flow behavior, frequency sweep, and 3-ITT rheological properties of low-fat mayonnaise samples were studied. All samples showed shear thinning, viscoelastic solid-like, and recoverable character.

This study involves the modeling of rheological behavior of the gum solution obtained from cold-pressed chia seed (CSG), flaxseed (FSG), and rocket seed (RSG) oil by-products and the application of these gums in a low-fat vegan mayonnaise formulation as fat replacers and emulsifier. CSG, FSG, and RSG solutions showed shear-thinning flow behavior at all concentrations. The K values ranged between 0.
