The effect of shear crushing, airflow comminution, and wet grinding on the physical and chemical properties of Tartary buckwheat bran (TBB) powder was compared. Superfine grinding significantly reduces the particle size of bran (1.644 μm), while increasing the protein content (23.60%), water-holding capacity (4.38 g g), solubility (21.077 g 100 g), bulk density (0.34 g mL), and tap density (0.53 g mL) providing good processing characteristics. The antioxidant properties of bran powder prepared by the three methods mentioned above were compared. The results showed that different bran powders subjected to superfine grinding displayed varying levels of antioxidant capacity. The quercetin content (2.18 g 100 g) of the wet-grinding bran powder (WGBP) was twice that of the control group, while no rutin was detected. The total flavonoid content (TFC) and total phenolic content (TPC) were significantly different from those of other groups. The DPPH, ˙OH, and ABTS removal rates were 60.74%, 86.62%, and 92.98%, respectively, while that of ˙OH was significantly higher than in the other treatment groups. The control group, shear crushed, and airflow comminution bran exhibited no significant differences in TFC, TPC, and oxidation resistance, except for the ability to remove ˙OH. TBB powder obtained superfine grinding displayed superior taste and functional characteristics, providing a theoretical reference for the processing of this bran.

Organic micropollutants (OMP) are ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems and have a proven negative impact on the environment and drinking water resources. To remove OMP from municipal wastewater, the use of superfine Powdered Activated Carbon (sPAC) (d = 1.0 µm) compared to Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) (d = 30.

(TF) stem accounts for about 10% of the whole mushroom, and most of them are dumped without utilization. To effectively utilize the waste, the effects of fine grinding and superfine grinding technology on the processing characteristics and physicochemical properties of stem powder (TFSP) were investigated, and the effects of TFSP on the quality of steamed bun were analyzed. The findings indicate that the specific surface area of superfine stem powder (STFSP) is 1.

Coconut endosperm residue is an abundant and low-cost resource of dietary fiber, but the low soluble fiber content limits its functional properties and applications in the food industry. To improve the hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic properties, coconut endosperm residue fiber (CERF) was modified by superfine-grinding and mix enzymatic hydrolysis alone, or combined with acetylation or hydroxypropylation. The effects of these modifications on the structure and functional properties were studied using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, and in vitro tests.

This study aimed to enhance bread functionality while maintaining its organoleptic attributes by employing superfine grinding and purple wheat, through characterizing dough properties, bread quality attributes, and in vitro starch digestibility. Compared with dough made from commercial-superfine-whole-wheat flour, the superfine-whole-purple-wheat dough was less strong, comparably extensible, and higher in gassing power during mixing, moulding and proofing, respectively. The subsequent bread quality analysis of crumb grain features and texture indicated that the bread made from superfine-whole-purple-wheat flour was more porous and softer with a larger specific volume (3.

Control of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in drinking water could be achieved by removing its precursors as one practical way. Herein, superfine powdered activated carbons with a diameter of about 1 µm (SPACs) were successfully prepared by grinding powdered activated carbon (PAC, D=24.3 µm) and applied to remove model NDMA precursors, i.
