This study aimed to examine and compare the effectiveness of a novel spray-dried inoculant and a commercial freeze-dried additive on the fermentation quality, aerobic stability and bacterial population of vetch-oat silage. An entirely random design used a 3 × 4 factorial arrangement of treatments, with and without lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inocula...

This study aimed at investigating the effects of an autochthonous microbial inoculant microencapsulated by spray-drying on fermentation parameters, microbiological composition, mycotoxin level and aerobic stability of maize and lucerne silages. Experiment 1, a completely randomized design with a 2 × 2 × 4 factorial arrangement of treatments, evalua...

The aim of this work was to study the changes in the functional characteristics of a fermented maize product containing fruits, and enriched with phytosterols. Functional characteristics (natural antioxidants and phytos-terols content, in vitro antioxidant capacity and probiotic viability), lipid oxidation, and physicochemical parameters were inves...

Chronic diseases are in exponential growth in the world, especially in South countries. Functional foods might be an answer to overcome these international stakes, because they are known for their several beneficial effects on human health. That is why our laboratory developed a probiotic maize-based product, enriched with natural carotenoids and p...

Phenolic compounds obtained from blueberries have gained great attention due to their more effective bioactive roles in human health than those of whole berries. However, they are sensitive to environmental conditions and are therefore susceptible to degradation affecting their effectiveness. The microencapsulation of these compounds by spray dryin...

There is limited information about how the co-digestion of different food matrices can affect the digestibility, bioaccessibility, and, hence, the effectiveness of their health beneficial compounds, such as polyphenols. This work aimed to study the effect of the co-digestion of a whole-wheat pasta dish and a glass of red wine on their individual an...

Aims: To investigate the influence of different culture media and fermentation conditions on growth performance and viability of three lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains with potential as silage inoculants, and to optimize spray-drying in order to enhance survival to dehydration and storage stability. Methods and results: In house-formulated MRS...

Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the “French paradox” has contributed to a growing interest in the investigation of the biological activity of red wine polyphenols (RWP). The main goal of this research is to provide valuable information on how RWP could exert their biological action at the cellular level. So, we report a proteomic...

The primary objective of this study was to assess the changes on phenolic composition and AC (antioxidant capacity)of white grape and its winemaking product, during in vitro gastrointestinal (GI)digestion. Phenolic compounds were evaluated by HPLC-MS/MS. The AC was measured by in vitro (FRAP, ABTS and DPPH)and cellular (Caco-2 cells)assays. Digesti...

Aims This meta‐analysis aims to assess the effect of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculation on fermentation parameters, microbiological composition and aerobic stability of corn silage. Methods and Results Data bases (PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus) were searched from 1980 to 2017. The criteria for inclusion were: randomised and controlled expe...

The content of phenolic compounds and their relationship with the antioxidant capacity of quince fruit were evaluated before and after jam processing at industrial scale. Waste samples from industrial processing were also analyzed. Twelve phenolics and one organic acid were identified and quantified by HPLC-DAD-QTOF. According to the results, jam p...

The aim of this study was to estimate the air quality along a section in the Suquia river during winter period using as active biomonitor Usnea amblyoclada. Four sampling sites were selected: two sites located upstream of the effluent treatment plant Bajo Grande, where one of them corresponds to Cordoba city (one of the most polluted cities in Arge...
