Techno-functional properties and antioxidant capacity of the concentrate and protein fractions of Leucaena spp. seeds

Arch. latinoam. nutr; 72 (3), 2022
Introduction: The use of vegetable proteins as ingredients in food systems is based on their functional properties. The water and oil holding capacity, foaming, and emulsifying capacity/stability, and antioxidant assay of the protein fractions - albumins, globulins 7S/11S, glutelins and prolamins - isola...

Soy protein: a food allergen frequently used in the preparation of meat products

Rev. chil. nutr; 47 (3), 2020
The addition of soy proteins, currently classified as a food allergen, into meat products is a commonly used practice due to its functional properties and low cost. Its addition to meat products can cause health problems for individuals allergic to these proteins. Allergic individuals can be affected by ...

Traceability of animal protein byproducts in ruminants by multivariate analysis of isotope ratio mass spectrometry to prevent transmission of prion diseases

Ruminant feed containing animal byproduct proteins (ABPs) is prohibited in many countries due to its risk of transmitting prion diseases (PD). In most cases the entire herd is sacrificed, which causes great harm to the producer countries by preventing their exportation of ruminant derived-products. Meth...

Associaçäo das vicilinas de sementyes de feijäo-de-corda Vigna unguiculata (L.)WALP. com a matriz peritrófica das larvas da broca de cana-de-açúcar Diatraea saccharalis (F.)

As proteínas de reservas (vicilinas) das sementes de EPACE-10 e 1'81D1045 de Vigna unguiculata foram avaliadas quanto ao seu comportamento no tubo digestivo de larvas da broca da cana-se-açúcar Diatraea saccharafs. As sementes de EPACE-10 e 1T81 D 1045 sao, respectivamente, susceptível e resistente a...

Requisitos mínimos protéicos de diferentes fontes vegetais para ratos de laboratório adultos
Protein minimum requirements from some vegetable sources for maintenance of mature laboratory rats

O efeito da qualidade e da quantidade de diferentes fontes de proteína na dieta utilizada por ratos adultos foi determinado através de parâmetros biológicos e bioquímicos. Ratos albinos da linhagem Wistar, com 275 dias de idade, foram submetidos a dietas isocalóricas contendo três diferentes níve...

Requisitos protéicos mínimos de diferentes fontes vegetais para ratos de laboratório em fase de crescimento
Protein minimum requirements from some vegetable sources for laboratory growing rats

Os requisitos mínimos de proteína para manutençäo do peso e nitrogênio corporal de ratos em crescimento foram determinados, avaliando-se a utilizaçäo protéica de diferentes fontes vegetais em relaçäo à caseína. O grau de comprometimento metabólico, nestas condiçöes, foi avaliado através d...
