Article Abstract

According to the investigation of Food and Drug Administration 2021, one hundred and twenty-six potentially harmful substances are produced by Maillard reaction. Discovery of advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) of Maillard reaction has impacted public's understanding of the transformation mechanism of Maillard reaction and its impact on health. This review clarifies the reaction kinetics of Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine, the representative substance of AGEs in food simulation system, and key nodes of forming AGEs. Inhibition mechanism of natural antioxidants is expounded from the aspects of biological activity, inhibition of protein glycosylation and its structure-activity relationship. Transformation mechanism is mainly to scavenge free radicals, capture active carbonyl compounds and protect protein glycosylation sites. Nutraceutical polyphenols can regulate the expression of RAEG, effectively promote KEAP1-Nrf2 pathway, inhibit MAPK and TGF-β pathway. Inhibition mechanism and novel application in foods processing in the future should be further studied in future.

Protein bar hardening negatively impacts shelf life, quality, and consumer acceptance. Although oxidation is known to negatively affect the flavor and texture of foods, the specific roles of lipid and protein oxidation in bar hardening have not been thoroughly investigated. Furthermore, most research has concentrated on dairy proteins, with a notable lack of studies addressing the hardening of plant-based protein bars.

This study investigated the potential of Maillard reaction products (MRPs) derived from mung bean protein isolate (MBPI) and peach gum (PG) conjugates as wall materials for microencapsulating chia seed oil (CSO). Four formulations (MMRP) were prepared using spray-drying and compared to a commercial sample (CMMRP). The MMRP formulation exhibited the highest encapsulation yield (91 %) and encapsulation efficiency (96 %), along with favorable physical properties, including a spherical shape and smooth surface.

Electronic address:

In recent years, quinoa protein (QP) has attracted attention for its balanced amino acids composition, but its limited techno-functional properties continue to pose challenges for its utilization. Non-enzymatic Maillard glycation is considered as a promising strategy to expand the utilization of plant proteins in food processing due to its cost-effectiveness, spontaneous nature, and the lack of need for additives to initiate the reaction. Furthermore, the use of hyaluronic acid (HA) as an ingredient in food products is becoming increasingly accepted and popular.

Home-made vs industry-made: Nutrient composition and content of potentially harmful compounds of different food products.

Curr Res Food Sci

Food Quality and Design Group, Department of Agrotechnology and Food Sciences, Wageningen University, P.O. Box 17, 6700 AA, Wageningen, the Netherlands.

Many consumers perceive industrially processed foods as lower in quality and potentially harmful to health, with concerns about poor nutrition, additives, and harmful compounds formed during processing. Epidemiological studies have highlighted risks associated with "ultra-processed foods," but empirical comparisons between industrial (IND) and home-made (HM) foods are scarce. This study aimed to compare nutritional values and harmful compounds in IND vs.

Article Synopsis
  • Longjing tea is notable for its rich umami flavor, but the complex chemical interactions that contribute to this taste are not fully understood.
  • The study analyzed taste components in two types of Longjing tea: 'Longjing 43' (LJ43) and 'Qunti' (QT), discovering 865 water-soluble peptides in QT and 497 in LJ43, with 44 identified as contributing to umami flavor.
  • Findings showed that LJ43 had higher levels of theanine and glutamine than QT, while both varieties contained similar levels of flavan-3-ols, indicating that different chemical compounds and their interactions play a critical role in defining the flavor profile of Longjing tea.
