Abstract As long as they are provided in appropriate proportions, probiotics can be beneficial to the host. These bacteria are increasingly used in food to balance intestinal microbiota and relieve gastrointestinal disorders. However after traveling through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, surviving probiotic bacteria comprise 10 to 30 % of this population. It is a probiotic bacterium found in many probiotic foods. As a result of its inability to hydrolyze proteins and macromolecule carbs, L. acidophilus grows poorly in cereal products. The goal of the present investigation was a synbiotic beverage made from corn mash and Rhizopus oryzae-fermented corn mash. Starting culture concentration is one such element. Milk powder and Corn mash that had been fermented with Rhizopus oryzae were both researched in depth. Fermented cornflour with R. oryzae had just enough nutrients to support L. acidophilus' survival, but not its development. The proliferation of Lactobacillus acidophilus was not improved by adding sugar (1 or 2 %, w/v). However, once milk powder (1 % or 2 %, w/v) was put in, L. acidophilus developed rapidly. After 10 hours of fermentation using 5.5 % Rhizopus oryzae -fermented corn mash and 2 % Cell counts for skim milk powder were about. 9.0 log CFU/mL. During fermentation, the content of -glucans (approximately 781 mg/L) did not change considerably.

Abstract In recent years, the emerging livestock and poultry business has encountered several obstacles in producing healthy and safe products for human consumption while also providing quality and nutritious food for animals. The presence of fungal toxins and fungi in raw materials is the most significant difficulty in supplying food for livestock and poultry, since mycotoxins can reduce output and lower product quality. Also, their residues in the final products (milk, meat, eggs) can transmit their adverse effects to humans. Fungal toxins are produced as a result of the activity of fungi during their growth process, which is called Mycotoxins. Many fungal toxins have been identified to date, including Aflatoxins, Ziralenone, Fumonisins, and Ochratoxins. Aflatoxins contaminate foods, feeds, and other raw materials involved in their production, posing a serious health risk to humans, including carcinogenesis and severe toxicity. Environmental factors affect the production process of Mycotoxins, which depends on the geographical location, agricultural method, sensitivity of agricultural products, etc. Another important point is that some mycotoxins can be used as bioterrorism weapons. Exposure to Mycotoxins can have a wide range of detrimental biological effects, including bleeding, hepatotoxicity, renal toxicity, neurotoxicity, estrogenic, teratogenic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic. Because of the importance of the subject, in the current study, it was tried to review the role of Mycotoxins in potential hazards associated with animal products for humans.

Abstract Many difficulties relating to food safety have been solved thanks to the employment of strong mass spectrometric detectors in conjunction with liquid chromatography. In this study, samples were fractionated using gel permeation chromatography and liquid/liquid extraction, and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry were used to detect possible genotoxicant(s) in recycled paperboard. As a genotoxicity indicator, the rec-assay was utilized. Abietic acid (AA) and dehydroabietic acid (DHA) and were discovered in the recycled paperboard to be genotoxic. AA and DHA were found in 2 of 5 virgin products and all seven recycled food-contact products. AA and DHA total levels in virgin goods were 990 and 240 mg/g, respectively, whereas recycled products had 200990 mg/g. The total quantity of AA and DHA content in DNA-damaging activity and paper products were shown to have a strong connection. Furthermore, genotoxic effects in paper products matched standard chemicals well, showing that AA and DHA were primarily responsible for the genotoxic effects of these paper products.

Abstract Green tea is high in polyphenols - compounds that have a variety of physiological functions. Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) was used in this study to extract polyphenols from green tea. The MAE of the phenols in green tea was studied using an orthogonal configuration. As a result of UV/vis spectrophotometric methods, the total phenol content of tea infusions was determined. Polyphenols are plant-based chemicals that we acquire from specific foods. They may provide health advantages and are high in antioxidants. Polyphenols are considered to enhance or aid in the treatment of cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative illness, diabetes, weight management concerns, and digestive problems. Each of the following factors has an impact on extraction: microwave intensity, microwave irradiate time, and frequency of microwave irradiation, as well as the tea/water ratio. Microwave radiation at 600 watts for 3 minutes at a frequency of once produced the best extraction results with a tea/water ratio of 1:20. As compared to traditional methods, MAE has a number of advantages. These include shorter extraction times, energy savings, and reduced environmental impact. A significant source of worry for food suppliers and users is the oxidation of dietary lipids. Antioxidant compounds have been used to prevent the oxidation of lipids. Synthetic antioxidant additions used today include C11H16O2 (BHA), C10H14O2 (TBHQ), and C15H24O (BHT). Toxicological and nutritional concerns, on the other hand, restrict their use. A variety of foods use green tea as a natural preservative because of its powerful antioxidant and antibacterial properties.
