  1. 1. Harnessing the potential of filamentous fungi for sustainable and healthy food system

    Author : Neda Rousta; Mohammad J Taherzadeh; Duu-Jong Lee; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable food system; mycoprotein; bioactive compounds; L-carnitine; submerged fermentation; healthy food; edible filamentous fungi; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

    Abstract : Food systems have the potential to improve human health while contributing to environmental sustainability; however, they are currently endangering both. The current food system, which is often based on animal farming, is responsible for global greenhouse gas emissions, and increases the incidence of, and mortality from, non-communicable diseases.

  2. 2. Malting of Barley for healthy foods. Optimal conditions for phytate removal and preservation of ?-glucan, in vitro iron availability and degradation of phytate and ?-glucan during in vitro digestion

    Author : Ann-Katrin Haraldsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; phytate; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; iron availability; barley; phytase activity; beta-glucan; in vitro digestion; malting; Caco-2 cells;

    Abstract : A high concentration of phytate (myo-inositol hexaphosphate) in cereals is known to impair absorption of dietary minerals. The aim of this work was to optimize a malting procedure to degrade phytate and/or increase phytase activity in barley to improve iron availability and to preserve the content of β-glucan, since β-glucan is associated with health promoting properties and is therefore of nutritional interest.

  3. 3. Cereal- and Microbial Phytases. Phytate Degradation, Mineral Binding and Absorption

    Author : Maria Türk; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mineral binding; iron absorption; cereals; phytate degradation; phytase; dietary phytases; S cerevisiae; A niger;

    Abstract : Cereal foods contain large amounts of phytate (myo-inositol hexaphosphate; IP6), which is the major storage form of phosphorus, in the plant. IP6 possesses a high potential for chelating minerals, such as Fe 2+, Zn2+, Mg2+ and Ca2+. READ MORE

  4. 4. Triboelectric charge characteristics and electrical separation of industrial minerals

    Author : Hamid-Reza Manouchehri; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mineralteknik; Mineral Processing;

    Abstract : Despite the fact that triboelectric separation process has not been completely perceived, it pronounced to be environmentally amiable and economically viable for minerals and wastes beneficiation, especially when fine particles with relatively similar electrical properties are being to be separated. Since the method mainly depends on the charges developed on particles for a successful separation, it is necessary to develop different charge polarities on minerals undergoing separation. READ MORE
