Fenugreek seeds are rich source of protein, minerals, vitamins, gum, fiber, alkaloid, flavonoids, saponin and volatile compounds Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is a legume and it has been used as a spice throughout the world to enhance the sensory quality of foods. It is known for its medicinal qualities such as antidiabetic, anticarcinogenic, hypocholesterolemic, antioxidant, and immunological activities. There for in this study we prepared the fenugreek powder as nutraceutical from seeds of Trigonella foenum graecum. It is evaluated for chemical test, particle size.

The use of non-Saccharomyces yeasts for alcoholic beverage improvement and diversification has gained considerable attention in recent years. The effect of pure and mixed inocula (of Torulaspora delbrueckii, Lachancea thermotolerans, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) on apple mash fermentation has been determined for the production of Hungarian fruit spirit (Pálinka), with a special emphasis on the chemical, volatile, and sensory attributes. The enological parameters were followed during the fermentation process. Sugar consumption and organic acid production were determined by HPLC, whereas the aromatic profile of the distillates was characterized by GC-FID. According to the results, single and mixed cultures showed similar characteristics during mash fermentation. The identified volatile compounds included aldehydes, esters, and higher alcohols. Mixed culture fermentation trials revealed a significantly higher concentration of volatile compounds and better sensorial attributes compared to those exhibited by the pure culture of S. cerevisiae.

The addition of maltodextrin is known to coat flavor components, increase volume, accelerate the drying process, prevent heat damage and increase solubility and characteristic quality of sensory. The general purpose of the research is to know the effect of variation of maltodextrin addition to physical characteristics (white degree, solubility and water absorption), chemistry (water content, ash content, fat content, protein and carbohydrate) and sensory milk quality of instant soybean sprouts based on variation of maltodextrin addition. The method of this research is monofactorial experiment, which consists of 5 treatment of maltodextrin concentration, 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. Each treatment was repeated 5 times, so that 25 experimental units were obtained. Physical and chemical test results were analyzed using Anova method followed by Duncan's advanced test while the sensory quality test data were analyzed using Friedman followed by Wilcoxon's advanced test. The results showed that there was a significant effect of the addition of maltodextrin concentration to physical test (white degree, solubility and water absorption) and water content, crude fiber, protein and carbohydrate but no significant effect on ash and fat content. Instant soybean sprouts with a 15-20% maltodextrin variation yield the best physical, chemical and sensory quality.

During the two-year research, a comparative analysis of the contents of 24 major volatile compounds and sensory characteristics of the plum spirits produced by spontaneous alcoholic fermentation of the plum mashes with or without stones from cultivar Cacanska Rodna and its parent cultivars ? Stanley and Pozegaca were carried out. The plum spirits obtained from Cacanska Rodna cultivar contain lower amounts of methanol, 1-hexanol, ethyl acetate and acetaldehyde and higher amounts of 3-methyl-1-butanol and 2-phenylethanol than the spirits from its parent cultivars. Contents of 1-propanol, 1-butanol and hexanoic acid in the spirits obtained from Cacanska Rodna cultivar were lower than the contents in the spirits from Pozegaca and higher than those in the spirits obtained from Stanley. The sensory quality of plum spirits, in addition to the cultivar, has been significantly influenced by the presence of stones in the mash during processing of plums into spirits. In processing plums with stones, the best-graded plum spirit was from Pozegaca (17.88), whereas in processing without stones, the best was Cacanska Rodna spirit (17.78). The spirits obtained from Stanley cultivar had the lowest sensory grades regardless of the processing method.

Background: Fenugreek seeds are employed in many traditional systems as an antibacterial, antidiabetic agent, gastric stimulant, and also for anti-invasive activity. Therefore, it is a suitable bioactive marker to establish the quality of crude drug and its formulations. Methods: A rapid, simple and sensitive LC-MS/MS analytical method was developed and validated for the determination of trigonelline extracted from Trigonella foenum-graecum (L.) (Fenugreek) and marketed dietary supplements using Etofylline as an internal standard. The objective of the present study is to quantify Trigonelline extracted from Trigonella foenum graecum L. (fenugreek) and marketed dietary supplements. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Zorbax C18 column (50mm x 4.6mm i.d, 5μ particle size). The samples were eluted using 0.1% Formic acid in water: Methanol (20:80%v/v) at a flow rate of 0.5ml/min with a runtime of 5 min. The eluents were monitored using a tandem mass spectrometer equipped with an electro spray ionization source in positive mode. Results: The analysis was performed in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode by quantifying the ion transitions from m/z 138.0→92.5 (Trigonelline) and m/z 225.0→180.90 (IS). The developed method was linear over the concentration range 5-50 ng/mL. The LOD and LOQ were found to be 1.0 ng/mL and 10.0 ng/mL, respectively. The correlation coefficient (r2) was found to be ≥0.998 for Trigonelline. Conclusion: The proposed validated LC-MS/MS method offers a sensitive quantification of trigonelline in Trigonella foenum graecum L. (fenugreek) and marketed dietary supplements containing fenugreek seeds.
