The effect of drying (oven and freeze-drying) and the addition of maltodextrin as a carrier to Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) puree powder samples were evaluated using a combination of two dimensional (2DCOS) and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. Fruit powder samples were obtained from an experiment where oven and freeze-drying methods were compared together with the addition of seven levels of maltodextrin to the samples (control, 5, 7.5, 10, 15, 20 and 25% w/w). Samples were scanned using a FT-NIR instrument (Tango, Bruker, Germany) and data analysed using 2DCOS. Asynchronous and synchronous 2DCOS spectroscopy were used to analyse and interpret the effects of the method of drying and the addition of maltodextrin on the NIR spectra of the fruit samples. The utilization of 2DCOS combined with NIR spectroscopy showed how the drying method affect the NIR spectra and thus the main implications of developing an effective, quick, and easy to use protocol for determining the drying method.

Background: Obesity is a multifactorial disease reaching pandemic proportions with increasing healthcare costs, advocating the development of better prevention and treatment strategies. Previous research indicates that the gut microbiome plays an important role in metabolic, hormonal, and neuronal cross-talk underlying eating behavior. We therefore aim to examine the effects of prebiotic and neurocognitive behavioral interventions on food decision-making and to assay the underlying mechanisms in a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT).

The aim of this study was to compare the functional properties of linseed oil powders made of three types of wall material (OSA starch + maltodextrin, OSA starch + nutriose, and OSA starch + inulin) and two types of emulsion phases (micro- and nanoemulsion). For these independent variables, the properties of the prepared emulsions (flow curves and viscosity) and the resulting powders (encapsulation efficiency, particle size distribution, water activity, bulk and tapped density, Carr's index, color parameters, and thermal stability) were determined. The results showed that emulsion viscosity and most powder properties were affected by the emulsion type.

Rosehip is of notable scientific interest due to its rich content of bioactives and its wide-ranging applications in nutrition, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The valorization of rosehip by-products, such as pomace, is highly significant for promoting sustainability. This study investigates the development of rosehip-based powders and beverage prototypes derived from both juice and pomace to evaluate the potential use of pomace in instant beverage design and compare it with juice-based formulations.

This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial effectiveness of cumin seed essential oil (CEO) after encapsulation in chickpea protein-maltodextrin matrix by spray drying and to provide insight into potential use as a natural ingredient in meat-based products. The surface morphology results of encapsulated CEO showed the dispersion in the wall material matrix, and the observed specific common peaks in the FT-IR spectra of encapsulated and non-encapsulated CEO proved the successful encapsulation. The antibacterial activity of non-encapsulated CEO against BC1402, ATCC 27853, Typhimurium ATCC 0402, ATCC 25923 were first evaluated by disc diffusion assay.

Foods and beverages with health benefits have become increasingly popular with consumers, and fruits and legumes are considered good sources of nutrients. In this study, sea buckthorn and fava bean were used as the main raw materials to prepare sea buckthorn-fava bean composite instant powder (S-FCP). Different drying methods (spray-drying (SD) and freeze-drying (FD)) combined with carriers (maltodextrin (MD) and inulin (INU)) were involved to investigate their effects on physicochemical properties, functional properties, and sensory attributes of instant powder.
