Insights on predominant edible bamboo shoot proteins

Development of antimicrobial and antibrowning edible coating and its effect on bamboo shoot quality

Nutritional Characterization of Shoots and Other Edible Products of an Edible Bamboo - Dendrocalamus hamiltonii

Dendrocalamus hamiltonii is a locally available variety of multipurpose bamboo which is mainly cultivated as wood substitute, fodder and edible shoots used for making pickles. As this is a predominant species of bamboo popular with the masses, therefore, an effort was made to evaluate its shoots for quality parameters. Results showed that it contained 91.06 % moisture, 0.81% ash, 0.29% fat and ...

Enzyme immobilization on glycosylated edible proteins.

Most of the supports for enzymeimmobilization are artificial materials, and chemical reactions are also required to immobilize the enzymes in most cases.1] These support materials and chemicals for immobilization must not be allowed to contaminate final products, especially foods or drugs. The requirements to achieve this are tedious, costly, and may have the wrong effects on enzyme activities....

Bamboo shoot: Microbiology, Biochemistry and Technology of fermentation - a review

Dried-fermented, fermented-canned and fermented-sliced bamboo shoots form a customary grace of different cookeries of the South-East Asian countries. Bamboo shoots are high moisture product, low in fat, cholesterol and high in carbohydrates and dietary fibers. Many nutrients and active materials can be extracted from them. Hence, bamboo shoots are more valuable in pharmaceutical and food proces...

Response of a Wild Edible Plant to Human Disturbance: Harvesting Can Enhance the Subsequent Yield of Bamboo Shoots

Wild edible plants, ecological foodstuffs obtained from forest ecosystems, grow in natural fields, and their productivity depends on their response to harvesting by humans. Addressing exactly how wild edible plants respond to harvesting is critical because this knowledge will provide insights into how to obtain effective and sustainable ecosystem services from these plants. We focused on bamboo...
