The browning kinetic was recorded using color data information from images of avocado slices. GLCM image texture was used to describe the reaction. In the experiment, images of avocado slices stored at 4°C were captured and saved in tiff format. The classical color intensity index (the mean L* value) and some statistics GLCM image textures were used. Results showed that it is possible to use GL...

The consumers interest in gelatin authentication is high due to allergic reactions and adoption of Halal and Kosher eating cultures. This research investigated browning development due to enzymatic hydrolysis and presence of Cu2+ during Maillard reaction of fish, porcine, and bovine gelatin. The rate of browning index samples showed two phases-rapid and slow-for all the gelatin samples and chan...

The aim of this study was attempted to investigate both the glycation kinetics and protein secondary conformational changes of human serum albumin (HSA) after the reaction with ribose. The browning and fluorescence determinations as well as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy with a curve-fitting technique were applied. Various concentrations of ribose were incubated over a 12-w...

The mechanisms involved in browning and in the Maillard reaction (1)) together with their effect on the nutritive value of proteins, have been investigated extensively, yet much of the evidence is of a contradictory nature. These experimental results are to be expected if one considers the variety of conditions of temperature, pH, and reactant concentrations employed by the various investigator...

Strategies for driving white adipose tissue (WAT) to acquire brown-like characteristics are a promising approach to reduce obesity. Liraglutide has been reported to active brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis and WAT browning by rapid intracerebroventricular injection in mice. In this study, we investigated the effects and possible mechanisms of liraglutide on WAT browning by chronic treatm...
