In this study, the effects of superfine grinding on the structural and physicochemical properties of bitter melon polysaccharides (BPS) were investigated, and Caenorhabditis elegans model was used to evaluate fat‐lowering bioactivities of BPS. Results illustrated that superfine grinding resulted in high extraction of BPSs yielding with altered micr...

BACKGROUND Bitter melon is widely applied to the treatment of diabetes and obesity, but few studies focus on the processing procedure of bitter melon. The differences in physical properties, bioaccessibility, and anti‐obesity activity of bitter melon powder (BMP) produced with or without superfine grinding were investigated to optimize an effective...

... Superfine grinding treatment could decrease molecular weight and enhance the antioxidant activities of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (Zhang et al., 2014). We previously found that superfine grinding technology could improve the physical properties and bioaccessibility of bitter melon and had better anti-obesity activity (Zhu et al., 2022). Meanwhile, during the superfine grinding processing, the structural characteristics and properties of polysaccharides from bitter melon might also change, which remained uncovered. ...
