A combination of soaking and extrusion processes of whole rice grain was studied. The effects of temperature (35-55 °C) and time (24-48 h) of soaking treatment on phytic acid (PA), protein and ashes losses using a factorial design were evaluated. Taking into account ash, protein and PA losses, whole rice was soaked 24 h at 45 °C and extruded using a Brabender single screw extruder. Effects of extrusion temperature (160-190 °C) and moisture content (14-19 g/100 g) on product characteristics were evaluated using surface response methodology. Values corresponding to the different responses were: Expansion (1.64-3.28), Specific Volume (5.68-11.06 cm(3)/g), Water absorption (3.41-4.43 mL/g) and Solubility (45.44-66.20 g/100 g). The content of PA was reduced from 740.09 to 163.47 mg/100 g (77%) after both processes, resulting in a higher mineral bio-accessibility, and a 7.3% decrease of protein digestibility. Total soluble phenolics and trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) were affected according to the treatment. Both treatments were important to obtain a nutritionally improved whole grain product.

Background/objectives: Three-dimensional printing technology has emerging interest in pharmaceutical manufacturing, offering new opportunities for personalized medicine and customized drug delivery systems. Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is highly regarded in the pharmaceutical industry because of its cost effectiveness, easy operation, and versatility in creating pharmaceutical dosage forms. This review investigates different methods of incorporating active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) into filament matrices for use in fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing.

Condensed tannins are considered nutritionally undesirable, because they precipitate proteins, inhibit digestive enzymes, and can affect the absorption of vitamins and minerals. From the consumer's point of view, they impart astringency to foods. Yet, they are viewed as a double-edged sword, since they possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.

This research assessed how three preprocessing techniques [soaking (S), soaking and reconstitution (SR), and soaking and dehulling (SD)] impact the protein digestibility and bioactivity of faba bean flours when combined with thermoplastic extrusion. Samples were compared against a control (C) of extruded faba bean flour without preprocessing. Applying preprocessing techniques followed by extrusion diminished antinutrient levels while enhancing protein hydrolysis and in vitro bioactivity in higher extent compared to C.

Protein inadequacy is a major contributor to nutritional deficiencies and adverse health outcomes of populations in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). People in LMICs often consume a diet predominantly based on staple crops, such as cereals or starches, and derive most of their daily protein intakes from these sources. However, plant-based sources of protein often contain low levels of indispensable amino acids (IAAs).
