The present study evaluates the effects of syrup concentrations of natural raisin microflora culture on the characteristics of sourdough and sourdough bread. The original total titratable acidity (TTA) of the starter solutions were between 10.30 and 10.45 mL, after 96 hours of incubation, the TTA of the starter solution increased to 11.30-11.85 mL. The greatest pH decrease and TTA increase occu...

Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is an autosomal recessive condition with an incidence of approximately 1 in 150 000 live births with a higher incidence amongst children from consanguineous relationships [1]. It is caused by an enzymatic deficiency with reduction in oxidative decarboxylation of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) (leucine, isoleucine and valine) resulting in elevated levels and t...

The food industry has long known that "a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down in the most delightful way." And cane sugar had been America's most delightful sweetener of choice, that is, until the 1970s, when the much less expensive corn-derived sweeteners like maltodextrin and high-fructose corn syrup were developed. While regular table sugar (sucrose) is 50% fructose and 50% glucose, ...

Three different formulations (infusion, pills and syrup) of Cochlospermum angolensis were characterized by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS regarding phenolic composition, and evaluated by their in vitro antimicrobial activity against clinical isolates of multiresistant bacteria. Infusion and pills showed the highest variety of phenolic compounds, with eleven molecules identified. Protocatechuic acid was only p...
