Functional ingredients have gained a large-scale development determined by the increased interest shown by consumers worldwide. Functional ingredients are bioactive compounds that can be used in the manufacture of functional food products. These bioactive compounds can be obtained from accessible materials. The use of these materials aims to transform affordable raw materials at low prices into functional ingredients concentrated in proteins, amino acids, minerals and fibres, which can be used to obtain foods with a beneficial role in health. The paper presents a series of experimental researches for obtaining and characterizing functional materials obtained from Jerusalem artichoke and hemp seeds. The samples obtained had low moisture content, between 5.11 – 5.43 % for Jerusalem artichoke and 4.8 – 5.13 % for hemp, ideal for storage and use as powder. Jerusalem artichoke registered high sugar contents (between 21.2 – 27.2 %), while hemp flour had high fat content (between 18.56 – 23.52 %), making both products suitable to be used as functional ingredients in the food industry.

Проектирование рецептур поликомпонентных пюре проводили на основе принципов пищевой комбинаторики с учетом суточной потребности детского организма в функциональных ингредиентах: инулине, пищевых волокнах, витаминах С и Р, β-каротине, железе и калии. Выбрано овощное сырье – клубни топинамбура, содержащие инулин, обладающий гипогликемическими свойствами, морковь и тыква, содержащие антиоксиданты и антитоксические ингредиенты, а также фруктовое сырье – яблоки, содержащие комплекс антиоксидантов. Эталоном служил продукт, содержащий функциональные ингредиенты в количестве 10–50% суточной нормы, что отвечает требованиям, предъявляемым ГОСТ Р 52349–2005. Наиболее высокие дегустационные оценки получили образцы, содержащие, %: пюре из топинамбура 20–50, пюре из яблок 20–65, пюре из тыквы (смесь 1) или моркови (смесь 2) 10–35. Соотношение компонентов в смеси 3 определяли, приняв количество пюре топинамбура в продукте постоянным и равным 45%, а остальные компоненты варьировали в пределах 0–55% от массы смеси. Исследован химический состав предназначенного для детского питания овощного и фруктового сырья как источник биологически активных веществ. После оптимизации рецептурных компонентов методом компьютерного моделирования изготовлены опытные образцы и проведена органолептическая оценка разработанных рецептур. Установлено, что разработанные рецептуры обеспечивают получение продуктов, сбалансированных по содержанию физиологически функциональных ингредиентов и обладающих высокими органолептическими свойствами. Have been designed formulations of puree canned food of functional use for baby food. Development of compoundings of multicomponent purees was carried out on the basis of the principles of food combination theory taking into account the daily need of a children's organism for functional ingredients: inulin, food fibers, vitamins C and P, β-carotene, iron and potassium. Vegetable raw materials are chosen – Jerusalem artichoke tubers containing inulin, which has hypoglycemic properties, carrots and pumpkin, containing antioxidants and antitoxic ingredients, as well as fruit raw materials – apples, containing a complex of antioxidants. The product containing functional ingredients in number of 10–50% of standard daily rate that meets requirements of GOST P 52349–2005 served as a standard. The highest tasting estimates have received the samples containing, %: Jerusalem artichoke puree 20–50, puree apples 20–65, puree pumpkin (mix 1) or puree carrots (mix 2) 10–35. The ratio of the components in the mixture 3 was determined as follows: the amount of Jerusalem artichoke puree in a product was accepted to constant and equal 45%, and other components – within the limits 0–55% of the mass of mix. The chemical composition of the vegetable and fruit raw materials as a source of biologically active agents for products of baby food is investigated. After optimization of prescription components the method of computer modeling has made prototypes and organoleptic assessment of the developed compoundings is carried out. It is established that the developed compounds provide the products balanced on the content of physiologically functional ingredients and having high organoleptic properties.

Chicken feet and neck bones flour are the products of live stock which have a high protein and mineral content. However, they have not been utilized functionally, while they have a potential as a food ingredient and functional food source. Therefore, it is necessary to make efforts to utilize the chicken feet and neck bones flour as functional food products and new food ingredients. Both chicken feet and neck bones flour can be mixed with other raw materials which have a potential function as food sources for energy. The addition of protein and minerals from the both chicken feet and neck bones flour are expected to be able to increase the nutritional value of a product, especially for the protein and mineral content. Thus, the product is not only as an energy source but also as a source of protein and minerals. Moreover, functional food development is not only beneficial for consumers but also as an opportunity for the food industry and government

На основе анализа публикаций, содержащих результаты теоретических и практических исследований, установлено, что основными факторами, влияющими на формирование качества и потребительских свойств функциональных и обогащенных пищевых продуктов, являются технология, способы и режимы производства, подбор и обоснование ингредиентов для обогащения продукции биологически активными веществами и функциональными ингредиентами. На примере хлебобулочных изделий установлено, что в качестве обогащающих добавок используют зерновые и зернобобовые культуры в виде отрубей, многозерновых смесей, резаного и цельного зерна; продукты переработки (в целом виде, резаные, порошкообразные и др.) орехов, плодов, овощей, ягод; отдельные функциональные ингредиенты, в частности пищевые волокна, витамины, минералы, фосфолипиды, полученные в основном из нетрадиционного растительного сырья – столовой свеклы, яблок, моркови, створок зеленого горошка и др. Внесение таких добавок влияет на органолептические свойства продукта, его функциональность, срок хранения и безопасность. Также для обогащения пищевых продуктов используют биологически активные добавки, изготовленные из различных видов растительного – тыква, люцерна, топинамбур, родиола розовая, морские водоросли и др. и животного, например кровь и жир млекопитающих, рыбный жир, сырья. Based on the analysis of publications containing the results of theoretical and practical studies, it was found that the main factors affecting the formation of quality and consumer properties of functional and enriched foods are the technology, methods and modes of production, selection and justification of ingredients for the enrichment of products by biologically active substances and functional ingredients. On the example of bakery products, it was found that grain and leguminous crops in the form of bran, multi-grain mixtures, cut and whole grain; processing products (as a whole, cut, powdered, etc.) nuts, fruits, vegetables, berries; separate functional ingredients, in particular dietary fibers, vitamins, minerals, phospholipids, obtained mainly from non-traditional plant raw materials – table beets, apples, carrot, green pea flaps, etc., are used as enriching additives. The introduction of such additives affects the organoleptic properties of the product, its functionality, product period of storage and safety. Biologically active additives made of different types of plant – squash, alfalfa, Jerusalem artichoke, Rhodiola rosea, seaweed, etc., and animal, such as blood and fat of mammals, fish oil, raw materials, also used for enrichment of food.

Eggshell membrane (ESM) is a natural proteinaceous by-product of the food industry, especially in the pasteurized egg industry, resulting in the availability of much discarded egg waste. In the literature, eggshell (ES) and ESM usage for their adsorbent properties to remove various organic and inorganic hazardous chemicals, especially from wastewater, has gained interest. In addition, agricultural (olive leaf) and food industry (eggshell and eggshell membrane) waste can together be valorized to produce value-added functional products. This study’s objective was to evaluate the eggshell membrane’s loading capacity for bioactive compounds obtained from olive leaf extract (OLE) in order to prepare functional biomaterial. In this study, waste eggshell membranes were used to adsorb the phenolic compounds from olive leaf extract to design functional biomaterials. Using the foam separation method, both separation of the eggshell membrane and adsorption of bioactive compounds to the eggshell membrane were achieved simultaneously. The characterization studies showed that OLE was successfully adsorbed to the eggshell membrane. Cytotoxicity and antimicrobial studies showed that prepared OLE-loaded membranes were functional materials with bioactive properties. In conclusion, ESM was determined as a promising protein in the production of functional antioxidative and antimicrobial food or dietary supplement after the adsorption of bioactive olive leaf polyphenols.

Introduction. Jerusalem artichoke is a valuable low-maintenance crop whose tubers contain vital nutrients and prebiotics. We propose using Jerusalem artichoke powder as a functional nutrient in the formulation of food products. Study objects and methods. We studied the influence of vacuum, vibration, and grinding on the kinetics of drying Jerusalem artichoke tubers of a “Skorospelka” variety in the laboratory vacuum vibromixing mill dryer (VVMD). Results and discussion. The rate of drying in the VVMD was almost 5.5 times as high as that of convective drying. The kinetic curves showed that grinding provided a period of decreasing drying rate until almost complete drying. Vibration drying in the VVMD was twice faster than vacuum drying. The comparison of theoretical and experimental data on moisture and drying time revealed good adequacy. The NMR analysis of changes in the molecular mobility of the samples obtained in the VVMD showed an implicit twocomponent spectrum, indicative of low moisture. The chemical analysis of the tubers and powders by standard methods confirmed that the proposed gentle technology (fast drying at 30°C) preserved 86% of inulin. Conclusion. Jerusalem artichoke powder obtained in the VVMD can be used in different branches of the food industry due to its long shelf life, low consolidation, and no caking, with residual moisture of 6.1%.

Currently, there is a clear tendency to incorporate natural ingredients into food and pharmaceutical formulations. Besides being well-accepted by consumers, these ingredients have less adverse side effects than their artificial counterparts. The pomegranate processing industry produces large quantities of by-products that are discarded as bio-residues, despite containing bioactive compounds. Accordingly, the epicarp of two pomegranate varieties (Mollar de Elche and Purple Queen) was tested as a potential source of bioactive compounds with food application. The phenolic profile was identified by HPLC–DAD–ESI/MS, revealing fourteen phenolic compounds in both varieties (Purple Queen showed also three anthocyanins), with punicalagin isomers as the major compounds. Nonetheless, Mollar de Elche presented greater antioxidant and antibacterial activities. Despite this result, Purple Queen was selected to be tested as a new natural colouring and functionalizing ingredient in a Brazilian pastry product. The incorporation of the selected extract maintained the nutritional profile and provided a higher antioxidant activity compared to the traditional product. In this way, this work confirmed the possible use of pomegranate epicarp as a natural ingredient in the food industry, conferring dyeing and functionalizing effects, and anticipating a possible valorisation of this bio-residue.

Modern consumers are much aware of potential health benefits of food and food ingredients. The food industry has been constrained to develop new products with improved sensory, nutritive and functional characteristics. In this work a potential use of English (Quercus robur) and Turkish oak (Quercus cerris) kernels as functional food components was estimated. Volatiles from native and roasted kernels were isolated using continuous hydro distillation with CH2Cl2 and analyzed with GC/MS. Coffee-like beverages were prepared from roasted kernels of both species and a sensory assessment was conducted. In the native samples the main compounds were beta-eudesmol and palmitic acid (39.9 and 24.9%, respectively) in Q. robur, and palmitic acid (53.8%) in Q. cerris. In the roasted samples the main compounds were furans: furfural (51.7 and 60.6%) and 5-methyl-furfural (8.6 and 9.4%, respectively). Coffee-like beverages from roasted oak samples were evaluated for sensory properties gaining high scores for appearance, with satisfying taste and fullness. The presented results, along with previous findings on substantial antioxidant and antiradical activities of English and Turkish Oak kernels, draw attention to these easy available, cheap, but neglected native raw materials as valuable functional food components. Further investigations on this matter are warranted.

In this review, studies (n = 41) were searched in which the compounds and contents were determined for whole fig fruit, peel, leaves and pulp, the types of fig-based products were identified and their total phenols and antioxidant capacity as well as the potential uses of different extracts of fig parts were analyzed. There is a need to reduce the fruit’s environmental impacts (zero waste), and bioactive compounds from fig fruits present a high added value as functional ingredients. Focusing on fig by-products (peel, seeds, no-optimal fruits and leaves), individual compounds and/or extracts can increase the functional, nutritional and techno-functional properties of food products such as additives. A high number of phenolic compounds was found in whole fruit (n = 19), peel (n = 26), pulp (n = 24) and leaves (n = 42). Quercetin-3-O-rutioside was reported as the major individual phenolic compound in whole figs, while cyanidin-3-rutinoside, epicatechin and caftaric acid were the highest compounds in peel, pulp and leaves, respectively. A potential strategy could be the development of novel additives and/or ingredients for food industry from fig by-products. Therefore, the use and valorization of the waste material produced during fig processing should be further investigated.
