The use of non-conventional seed flour is of interest in obtaining healthy breakfast cereals. The research aimed to study the physico-functional, bioactive, microstructure, and thermal characteristics of breakfast cereals using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and differential scanning calorimeter. The increase in feed moisture content (16 %) enhanced the bulk density (5.24 g/mL), water absorption index (7.76 g/g), total phenolic content (9.03 mg GAE/g), and antioxidant activity (30.36 %) having desirable expansion rate (2.84 mm), water solubility index (48 %), and color attributes. The microstructure showed dense inner structures with closed air cells in extruded flours. Extrusion treatment rearranged the crystalline structure from A-type to V-type by disrupting the granular structure of starch, reducing its crystallinity, and promoting the formation of an amylose-lipid complex network. Increasing conditioning moisture enhanced the degree of gelatinization (%), peak gelatinization temperature (T), and starch crystallinity (%) and reduced the gelatinization enthalpy (ΔH) and gelatinization temperature ranges. The results reported in this study will help industries to develop innovative and novel food products containing functional ingredients.

Microplastic contamination of low-density polyethylene mulch and nutrient loss from fertilizers present significant challenges in the crop-growing. In this study, the focus was on creating a biodegradable film that combines the advantages of plastic film, thermal insulation and water retention, as well as the controlled release of fertilizer. A key innovation was the efficient introduction of low molecular weight and low dispersibility of poplar lignin into chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol matrices.

The type 3 resistant waxy corn starch (RS3) was synthesized by removing starch granule surface proteins and subjecting it to heat-moisture treatment at -20°C, 4°C, and 25°C. Upon applying the dual modification, a significant reduction in particle size and in vitro digestion was observed, while the gelatinization enthalpy, relative crystallinity, and resistant starch content increased. Notably, RS3 treated at 4°C demonstrated the lowest digestion rate of 3.

Fungal lipases are the leading industrial biocatalyst due to their broad applications, but high cost limits their commercial usage. The low-cost agri-residues substrates can reduce the cost of lipase production. However, the compatibility of agri-residue with fungal species, recovery process of lipase and stability of the enzyme are crucial steps.

Tender ginger is often used a fresh vegetable but hard to storage due to the delicate skin, high moisture content and prone to spoilage. In order to develop suitable preservation technology for tender ginger, the effects of vacuum packaging combined with different preservation temperatures (20-25 °C room temperature, 4 °C and 10 °C) on tender ginger shelf life were investigated. The results indicated that vacuum packaging combined with 4 °C (VP4) preservation could easily cause cold damage and postharvest physiological fluctuations.
