Background: Mechanized Huangjiu is a stable product, is not subject to seasonal production restrictions, and markedly reduces labor intensity compared to traditional manual Huangjiu. However, the bitterness of mechanized Huangjiu impedes its further development.
Results: Based on process optimization, when the fermentation temperature was 45 °C and the fermentation time was 122 h, the inoculation amount of Saccharopolyspora was 5%, the amount of added water was 26%, and the glucoamylase and amylase activities of wheat Qu increased by 27% and 40% respectively, compared with those before optimization. Huangjiu fermented by raw wheat Qu inoculated with Saccharopolyspora rosea F2014 showed a significant (P < 0.05) decrease in bitter amino acid content (1.24 vs. 2.86 g L , a decrease of 56%), which attenuated its bitterness.
Conclusion: An innovative fermentation process of inoculating Saccharopolyspora into raw wheat Qu was developed for the first time. Such a process could be used to control bitterness based on raw wheat Qu inoculated with Saccharopolyspora rosea F2014, instead of traditional wheat Qu in Huangjiu fermentation. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Starch and non-starch polysaccharides ((N)SPs) are relevant in cereal-based beverages. Although their molar mass and conformation are important to the sensory characteristics of beer and non-alcoholic beer, their triggering mechanism in the mouth is not fully understood. Soft tribology has emerged as a tool to mimic oral processing (drinking).

Yam noodles were produced by replacing high-gluten wheat flour with yam flour modified with plasma-activated water and twin-screw extrusion (PAW-TSE). The effects of varying amounts of modified yam flour on the color, cooking characteristics, texture, and in vitro digestibility of the noodles were investigated. As the amount of modified yam flour increased, the noodles became darker in color, while the bound water content increased, and the free water content decreased.

The complex structure of the plant cell wall makes it difficult to use the biomass produced by biosynthesis. For this reason, the search for new strains of microorganisms capable of efficiently degrading fiber is a topic of interest. For these reasons, the present study aimed to evaluate both the microbiological and enzymatic characteristics of the fungus L7strain.

(1) Background: In drug discovery and pharmaceutical quality control, a challenge is to assess protein extracts used for allergy therapy and in vivo diagnosis, such as prick tests. Indeed, there are significant differences between the features of marketed products due to variations in raw materials, purification processes, and formulation techniques. (2) Methods: A protein array technology has been developed to provide comprehensive information on protein-biomarker interactions on a large scale to support the pharmaceutical industry and clinical research.

Amaranth is an ancient crop of the family Amaranthaceae, but it is fairly new to Russia. Its seeds and leaf biomass contain a high-quality gluten-free protein, fatty acids, squalene (a polyunsaturated hydrocarbon), flavonoids, vitamins, and minerals. A comprehensive study of amaranth, enhancement of its breeding, and development of new cultivars will contribute to food quality improvement through the use of plant raw materials enriched for wholesome and highly nutritious components.
