Atmospheric cold Plasma (ACP) is a novel non‐thermal technique that provides the ability to denaturate enzymes without damaging main components. The first purpose of this research is to evaluate the impact of ACP produced via dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) on endogenous enzymatic activity and tilapia quality characteristics, the second is to in...

glasswort (Salicornia fruticosa) is the most widely distributed species of the perennial genus of glasswort in Egypt and it shows great biotechnological potential as a saltwater irrigated crop. Oil analysis of Salicornia fruticosa seeds was carried out in the current study. Chloroform and methanol mixture (2:1 v:v) extraction yielded maximum oil co...

This work was undertaken to figure out the optimum conditions for transformation of chitin to chitosan via microwave and to determine chitosan physical properties, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities to evaluate the possibility of using such by-products in preparing some functional foods. The obtained results revealed that deacetylation degree...

Integrating the consumption of agro-industrial residues with satisfactory consumers is an opposition that, may affect the financial dividend of the frozen meat manufacturing , aside from producing products with diversified nutritional values and satisfying technical characteristics. Thence, we aimed in this research to elaborate and appraise the ph...

The effect of modification of milk whey protein (WP) with onion extract and quercetin on their antimicrobial and anticancer activities was studied.WP was modified with onion extract powder rich with quercetin (OE) and quercetin dihydrate (Q) with concentration of (60 mg/g protein) at alkaline conditions (pH 9) and room temperature in the presence o...

This work was carried out for two main targets, the first one is to study the possibility of preparing high-quality snacks made of corn grits and supplemented with different levels of red corncobs powder (5%, 8%, and 10%). The second one is to evaluate this product chemically, physically and nutritionally. The received data revealed that red cornco...

Betalain use in food industry is limited mostly because it's low stability. The aim of this work was maximization of betalain extraction from S. fruticosa as a new source and improving its stability by encapsulation with various matrices consisting of gum arabic along with maltodextrin of DE 4−7 (M4−7) or with maltodextrin of DE 16.5−19.5 (M16.5−19...
