Dietary agricultural by-products (like wheat bran and soybean hulls) mixed with soybean molasses enhances the lactating performance of dairy cows by improving the host metabolism process of amino acids and carbohydrates. The mixed strategy for agricultural by-products shows another strong evidence for the resource reuse on dairy industry and reducing the by-product pollution.

A low-calorie biscuit formulation containing quinoa flour (cultivars TTKK), isomalt, and maltodextrin was optimized using response surface methodology. The results showed that with increasing amounts of quinoa, isomalt, and maltodextrin ΔE and Browning index increased, whereas hardness and L values decreased. The formulation containing 25% quinoa flour, 3.5% maltodextrin, and 10% isomalt was found to be optimal with an overall desirability value of 0.95. The sensory evaluation showed that replacement of wheat flour with 25 g/100 g quinoa flour in biscuits was acceptable. In this study, the low-calorie biscuit formulation was optimized using quinoa flour (cultivars TTkK), isomalt, and maltodextrin according to Response surface method. Optimized samples were evaluated in terms of total phenolic compounds and nutritional value while samples containing wheat flour (Pishgam var. and sucrose) were used as control.

The objective of this study was to optimize pomegranate juice concentrations (13% and 17%) by adding them to the yogurt, followed by an analysis of its physicochemical features and microbial properties.

We identified two major dietary patterns from data of participants in the Ravansar Non-Communicable Chronic Disease (RaNCD) study. The first dietary pattern was “mixed” that heavily loaded with fruits, vegetables, nuts, dairies, sweets, legumes, dried fruits, fish, red meat, butter, whole grains, natural juices, poultry, pickles, olive, industrial juice, egg, processed meat, and snacks and the second dietary pattern was “unhealthy” that heavily loaded by fats, sugar, refined grains, soft drink, salt, organ meat, tea, and coffee. Surprisingly we found that adherence to the mixed dietary pattern and the unhealthy dietary pattern did not associate with abnormal muscle strength.

Supplementing diets with CS and SM improved blood parameters and liver enzymes, but their effects were statistically non-significant. Effect of application of the extracts on profile of breast fatty acids was variable, but in general, consumption of 250 mg/kg of both supplements was effective in improving profile of breast fatty acids. In general, it is recommended to supplement aflatoxin-free diet with 250 mg/kg CS and SM to produce healthy meat, as well as to improve the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of broilers.

A small granule starch was modified by HMT. A higher MC (≤20%) during HMT increased starch orders with unaltered granule morphology, and HMT-20% produced the highest amount of SDS and RS in starch. The sand rice starch can be modulated by HMT through controlled MC.

This research paper has been written based on our latest investigation on the creation soluble complex of whey protein concentrate (WPC) with xanthan gum (XG) and basil seed gum (BSG) under different amounts of pHs (3–7) and calcium chloride (5–20 mM). The complex characteristic was investigated according to turbidity, rheological behavior, and electrostatic interactions. The results illustrated although the hydrocolloids had different sources, their functions were approximately similar. The data analysis illustrated that alterations of pH affect soluble and insoluble complexes, and reduced complex viscosity. In addition, the viscosities of complexes had downward trends in the presence of different concentrations of salt. The soluble complex for both hydrocolloids was created in pH 6.

Human milk from Zhejiang Province of China demonstrated significant lactational variations in fatty acid composition. As lactation progressed from 0‒5 to 181‒360 days, C12:0 and C14:0 showed a notable rising tendency, C18:2n-6 and C18:3n-3 increased significantly first and then remained constant, while C16:0, C18:1n-9, C20:4n-6, C22:5n-3 and C22:6n-3 decreased first and then maintained consistently. Regardless of lactational variations, C14:0, C16:0, C22:5n-3 and C22:6n-3 were located mainly at the sn-2 position of triacylglycerol, while C18:1n-9, C18:2n-6 and C18:3n-3 were primarily distributed at the sn-1,3 positions.

Biodegradable packaging is one of the best types of packaging that wishes not to harm the environment. Paper packaging coated with materials, such as rice bran wax and whey protein isolate, both of which are food waste, can improve paper color and resistance, and provide a good moisture barrier. This type of coating can be used in paper packaging of food such as snacks, noodle packaging, semi-prepared foods, etc. This type of packaging can also maintain the physicochemical and sensory properties of food for a long time. Also, due to the edible nature of this type of coating, this coating can be used inside the package so that the printability of the packaging surface is not affected.
