Medicinal Properties

Schizophyllum commune Fr., a native mushroom of Thailand, has a high nutritional value and is classified as a mushroom with medicinal properties that can neutralize the growth of many cancer cells. This research aimed to study the effect of S. commune strains and the extraction methods on the quantity and properties of β-glucan. The five S. commune Fr. strains used in this research consisted of Chanthaburi, 85-022, 85-023, 85-031, and 85- 043. There were two different β-glucan extraction methods employed: hot water (M1) and hot alkali extraction (M2), which were compared with the control (native-MR). The results indicated that the Chanthaburi strain has the highest β-glucan content 49.20±0.35% (w/w), and high potential antioxidant activity (79.14±0.77 DPPH% and 50.92±0.48 ABTS%) (p < 0.05). The extraction methods did not affect the yield of β-glucan, except the antioxidant properties and chemical structure of the extract substance. The extract substance from M2 has significantly the highest potential antioxidant activity (80.22±0.51). A mushroom juice drink in cans was developed using 1-day-old MR and adjusted pH of more than 7, which can increase the antioxidant properties of the product.

The Creation

Abstract French physical chemist, Hervé This, first proposed Note by Note (NbN) cooking in 1994. It is an application of molecular gastronomy and involves the use of compounds, either pure or in mixtures, rather than traditional food ingredients to make dishes. A review of international activities, relating to NbN cooking and cuisine, reveals that it has the potential to contribute to the creation of bespoke foods and drinks, e.g., by using ingredients which are sustainable and which provide nutritional value. However the ‘food neophobia’ of some consumers needs to be overcome to ensure its success. In light of these findings, it was decided to explore if and how the factors of food neophobia, sustainability and nourishment influenced students when they were developing their NbN dishes/drinks for their module assignment in TU Dublin. One hundred and five students at TU Dublin have, since 2013, completed NbN assignments and their corresponding reports which provide details of the development of their dishes/drinks. Eighty-seven of these were available for analysis. It was found that the majority of the students (62%) were inspired by traditional foods to create bespoke NbN dishes/drinks, helping to address the ‘food neophobia’ of some consumers. The development of one of these dishes and one of these drinks is discussed. This information would be beneficial for others who will be developing NbN dishes/drinks.

ABSTRACT: Beans are popular as a protein-filled legume of high nutritional value, being one of the most planted species in the world. However, recent years have seen a decrease in the consumption of beans, owing to the time necessary to cook it domestically. Thus, it is being replaced in people’s diets by other foods. An alternative preparation that supplies modern consumers’ demands is industrially processed beans. This article aimed to provide a literature review on the processing of canned beans. Few recent studies have been performed in Brazil on this subject, as most studies have focused instead on the technological quality of dry bean grains processing. In this article industrial processing concepts and features, production unit operations, and canned beans quality standards will be discussed. These efforts are expected to contribute to the Brazilian beans production chain, and consequently to increase consumption of canned beans and the demand for industrial processing of beans in both the domestic market and future product exports.

Gresik is well known as one of the Islamic based tourism towns in East Java. This Islamic tourism encourages the development of typical souvenirs business in Gresik especially in food sector. Some Gresik traditional food are often used as souvenirs, such as pudak, jubung, and ayas. High sale promotes product innovation, especially in terms of taste creations, preservation / shelf life, as well as packaging. Unfortunately, these product innovation have not been supported with information related to product nutritional value. The nutritional value is important, considering the usage of information in food labelling as well as for the materials, process and packaging basic innovation. The study of Gresik traditional food nutritional value products consists of two stages, they were field-related observation and laboratory testing. Field observations were done to obtain information on raw materials and production processes from pudak, jubung and ayas. As for the test of nutritional value was done by proximate test. The results showed that pudak has moisture content (55.6%) twice higher than jubung and ayas (25.0% and 22.7%, respectively). All three products have a low fat content, which was below 1.0 g per serving. The protein content is also relatively low, i.e. only 2.1-2.8%. All three of these products are carbohydrate sources with the amount of 40.8-73.4% which gives a caloric amount of 120-185 kcal per serving. Implementation of nutritional information in food label could also give added value to the product.

Abstract. Srimariana ES, Apituley DAN. 2019. Antioxidant activity of extracted green algae silpau (Dyctyosphaeria versluysii). Nusantara Bioscience 11: 153-156. Silpau (Dictyosphaeria versluysii) is a green algae that is widely available in Southwest Moluccas regency, living on coral reefs and not classified as seasonal plants. Silpau has long been used by local people, generally in the form of processed vegetables or colo-colo (traditional food). Except for its nutritional value, comprehensive information about silpau still unknown. Therefore, this study was carried out to determine its potential as an antioxidant. The phytochemical content of silpau was analyzed according to the standard method. The antioxidant activity of green algae silpau extract was carried out by reducing DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) free radicals. Phytochemical test of silpau revealed that silpau contain terpenoid compounds. The result of the study showed that the IC50 value of methanol extract of silpau was 547.97 ppm, indicated that silpau methanol extract categorized as a weak antioxidant.

At present many countries are actively working over the use of sorghum in the food industry as juice, syrup, as well as for the production of alcohol and bioethanol. We do not consider the use of sweet sorghum as a sugar substitute in the food industry and a source of renewable energy in Russia. The main purpose of sorghum, until recently, was fodder. Green mass of sweet sorghum can be used to produce green fodder, hay, haylage, silage, grass meal, granules, etc. In terms of nutritional value, sorghum syrup is next best to sugar-containing products from sugar beet, sugar cane, while its cultivation is more economical and its yields are more stable in any conditions of cultivation. Sweet sorghum syrup in its pure form is more easily digested by the human body than in crystals, and may be used in the production of healthy food consumed by everyone including people with diabetes. This allows us to conclude about the relevance of these studies. Thus, the ARC “Donskoy” varieties, harvested in the phase of ‘wax ripeness of kernels’, produced 37–46 t/ha of green mass with 13–16% sugar in the juice of the stems, and the yield of ‘liquid’ sugar was 2.86–3.81 t/ha. In this country sorghum is unfortunately paid too little attention from both science and production. To sow fodder sweet sorghum on 10–20 hectare is not difficult, and the efficiency of such sowing is quite obvious: about 25 tons of seeds of sweet sorghum, about 65 tons of leaves, stems for silage or hay, about 10 tons of food syrup and more than 100 tons of pulp or bagasse used for making high-quality silage can be obtained from 10 hectares. Sorghum syrup is the most valuable product that can be used in the confectionery industry and in the feeding of all animals.

Anaemia occurs due to several factors, such as deficiency of iron, folic acid, vitamin B12 and protein. Anemia is directly caused by the lack of red blood cell production, the body loses blood either acutely or in a chronic manner, and the destruction of red blood cells is too fast. One of the prevention of anaemia by providing functional food that is developed is tempe which has high quality and nutritional value. The purpose of this study was to examine and analyze the potential of tempeh in increasing hemoglobin levels in patients with anaemia. This research is a literature review with a narrative method that studies and analyzes research results related to the potential of tempe to increase hemoglobin levels in patients with anaemia. The results of this study are the results of a literature review review which shows that Tempe contains an average of 2,0 mg of iron, folic acid 0,9-2,0 mg/kg according to the inoculum used and vitamin B12 raw tempe 0,08 μg/100 grams and cooked tempeh 0,14 μg/100 grams. The conclusion of this study states that tempeh has adequate nutritional value of protein, iron, vitamin B12, and folic acid, so that tempeh has the potential to increase hemoglobin levels in patients with anaemia. Expected, to be the basis of further research on genomics and genetic influences on human against tempe bioavailability as a functional food for adolescent anaemia. Anemia merupakan suatu keadaan jumlah sel darah merah atau kadar hemoglobin (Hb) dalam darah lebih rendah daripada nilai normal. Anemia terjadi karena beberapa faktor, diantaranya defisiensi besi, asam folat, vitamin B12 dan protein. Secara langsung anemia disebabkan kurangnya produksi sel darah merah, tubuh kehilangan darah baik secara akut atau menahun, dan hancurnya sel darah merah yang terlalu cepat. Salah satu pencegahan anemia dengan pemberian bahan pangan fungsional yang dikembangkan yaitu tempe yang mempunyai mutu dan nilai gizi tinggi. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengkaji dan menganalisis potensi tempe dalam meningkatkan kadar hemoglobin pada penderita anemia. Penelitian merupakan literature review dengan metode naratif yang mengkaji dan menganalisis hasil penelitian yang terkait dengan potensi tempe untuk meningkatkan kadar hemoglobin pada penderita anemia. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa Tempe mengandung rata-rata zat besi sebanyak 2,0 mg, asam folat 0,9-2,0 mg/kg sesuai dengan inoculum yang digunakan dan vitamin B12 tempe mentah 0,08 μg/100 gram dan tempe matang 0,14 μg/100 gram. Kesimpulan penelitian ini menyatakan tempe mempunyai nilai gizi zat besi, vitamin B12, dan asam folat yang cukup, sehingga tempe berpotensi untuk meningkatkan kadar hemoglobin pada penderita anemia. Penelitian ini diharapkan menjadi dasar penelitian lanjutan mengenai pengaruh genomik dan genetik pada manusia terhadap bioavabilitas tempe sebagai pangan fungsional untuk remaja anemia.
