Bologna sausages were produced with 25, 50, 75 and 100% of their pork fat content replaced by monoglyceride based-oleogels prepared from conventional or high oleic sunflower oils. Physicochemical, technological, and sensory properties of Bologna sausages were evaluated. Emulsion stability was little affected by fat replacement. All treatments batters exhibited characteristic rheological properties of gels (G' > G″). Overall, the addition of oleogel as a fat substitute made the sausages lighter and a small increase in hardness was observed in the sausages with total fat replacement by oleogels. The sliceability was affected by the reformulation and a higher number of slices were obtained in samples with oleogels in relation to the control. These results were associated to the product structure that became more compact as the amount of pork fat was reduced. However, all samples showed good acceptance by the consumers and no significant difference was observed between treatments. The results showed that monostearate-based oleogel can be a potential fat replacer with higher amount of unsaturated fatty acids to be used in meat products, but retaining the desired characteristics of the traditional products.

Research Background: With the increasing consumption of food commodities, particularly rice, and the substantial volume of food imports in Indonesia, there is an increasing need to explore alternative food sources. Rice analogues emerge as a potential substitute for traditional rice, serving as a viable staple food option. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the composition of raw material, namely sago and corn flour, on the physicochemical properties and consumer acceptance of rice analogues.

The increased use of dairy fat in various applications is facilitated by its fractionation into hard and liquid fractions. Herein, the fractionation of bovine ghee and buffalo ghee was investigated, and triacylglycerol (TAG) profiles of milk fat fractions and 2 categories of infant formulas fat were quantified by using ultra-performance convergence chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPC-Q-TOF-MS) using carbon dioxide as the mobile phase. Furthermore, the thermal behavior of the different samples was evaluated, and tocopherols content was also quantified.

Background: Knowledge about the diet quality among youth who follow different types of plant-based diets is essential to understand whether support is required to ensure a well-planned diet that meets their nutritional needs. This study aimed to investigate how food groups, macronutrient intake, and objective blood measures varied between Norwegian youth following different plant-based diets compared to omnivorous diet.
Methods: Cross-sectional design, with healthy 16-to-24-year-olds (n = 165) recruited from the Agder area in Norway, following a vegan, lacto-ovo-vegetarian, pescatarian, flexitarian or omnivore diet.

Hemoglobin mass (Hb) prediction enhance the accessibility and practicality of athletes' hemoglobin status monitoring, facilitating better performance. Therefore, we aimed to create prediction equations for Hb in well-trained endurance athletes (EA), based on easily obtained measures. The population of 220 well-trained EA (40% females, maximal oxygen uptake = 63.
