The Kei apple is a tree found on the African continent. Limited information exists on the effect of alcoholic and acetous fermentation on the phytochemicals of Kei apple. The fruit has increased concentrations of l-malic, ascorbic, and phenolic acids among other compounds. Juice was co-inoculated with Schizosaccharomyces pombe (Sp) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) to induce alcoholic fermentation (AF). Acetous fermentation followed AF, using an acetic acid bacteria (AAB) consortium.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae + Sp wines and vinegars had the highest pH. Total acidity, soluble solids and l-malic acid decreased during AF and acetous fermentation, and was highest in Sc wines and vinegars. Volatile acidity (VA) concentration was highest in Sp vinegars but was not significantly different from Sc and Sc + Sp vinegars. Gallic acid was highest in Sp wines and vinegars, whereas syringic acid was highest in Sc wines and vinegars. The Sc + Sp wines were highest in caffeic, p-coumaric, and protocatechuic acids. Avasimibe inhibitor Schizos increase in gallic, caffeic, and p-coumaric acids. The AAB selected had minimal performance with respect to VA production in comparison to commercial vinegars. Acetic acid bacteria selection for acetous fermentation should therefore be reconsidered and the decrease of certain phenolic acids during acetous fermentation needs to be investigated. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.Biofortification refers to an approach to increase micronutrient concentrations in the edible parts of plants with increased bioavailability to the human population. Conventional, agronomic and transgenic breeding methods can be used to develop these biofortified crops, offering sustainable and cost-effective strategies. Pea has long been recognized as a valuable, nutritious food for the human diet, but there is a limited amount of information about it, which prevents the full micronutrient enrichment potential of this pulse crop to be reached. Considerations must include not only micronutrient concentrations but also the amount of the nutrient that can be absorbed by the consumer, after processing and cooking. Development of biofortified pea that retains nutrients during cooking and processing is not only essential for fighting micronutrient malnutrition, but also necessary to improve agricultural productivity. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.
Practical guidance for providers on preventing, detecting, and treating malnutrition in primary care (PC) and the community is limited. The purpose of this study was to develop nutrition care pathways for adult patients (aged ≥18 years) transitioning from hospital to community and community-dwelling older adults (aged ≥65 years) who are at risk for malnutrition.

A review of best-practice nutrition evidence and guidelines published between 2009 and 2019 was performed using PubMed and CINAHL. Findings were summarized into two draft care pathways by the Primary Care Working Group of the Canadian Malnutrition Task Force. Diverse stakeholders (n = 21) reviewed and suggested revisions at a 1-day meeting. Revisions were made and an online survey was conducted to determine the relevance and importance of discrete care practices, and to establish consensus for which practices should be retained in the pathways. Providers (e.g., dietitians, physicians, nurses; n = 291) across healthcare settings completed the surves.
Elemental selenium, as a new type of selenium supplement, can be prepared by microorganisms reducing inorganic selenium. In this study, Lactobacillus brevis JLD715 was incubated in broth containing different concentrations of sodium selenite (Na
SeO
).

The results showed that the bacterial biomass of L. brevis JLD715 decreased due to the inhibition of Na
SeO
. The cell membrane of L. brevis JLD715 treated with Na
SeO
was damaged, as evidenced by the reduction of intracellular ATP concentration, depolarization of cell membrane, reduction of intracellular pH and impairment of membrane integrity. In addition, we investigated the metabolism mechanism of Na
SeO
by L. brevis JLD715 based on transcriptome sequencing. A total of 461 genes were significantly differentially expressed under Na
SeO
treatment, of which 231 genes were up-regulated and 230 genes were down-regulated. These genes were involved in pathways such as pyruvate metabolism, fatty acid biosynthesis, selenocompound metabolism and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like (NOD-like) receptor signaling. Meanwhile, the genes related to sulfhydryl oxidoreductase, electron carrier proteins and transmembrane transport proteins synthesis were significantly up-regulated.

To sum up, the findings of this research will contribute to providing support for the application of L. brevis JLD715 in selenium-enriched functional foods. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

The peel of the pomegranate fruit is rich in polyphenols with antioxidant properties. We investigated the preventive effect of pomegranate peel (PP) powder against dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced lipid peroxidation in the small intestine of rats. Rats were allocated to four groups CONT group, fed a standard rodent diet; DSS group, fed a standard rodent diet and treated with DSS; as well as PP1%+DSS and PP5%+DSS groups, fed a standard rodent diet supplemented with either 1% or 5% of PP powder and treated with DSS. Rats of the four groups consumed their diets for 25 days. Lipid peroxidation was determined by measuring malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations in plasma and MDA contents in the small intestine and liver. Glutathione/glutathione disulfide (GSH/GSSG) redox status and antioxidant enzyme activities were determined in the small intestine and liver.

MDA content was higher (P < 0.001) in the small intestines of the DSS group compared to the CONT group. MDA content was reduced (P < 0.001) in thduced small intestine pathogenesis. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.
