Curcumin is a naturally derived phytochemical compound obtained from the turmeric plant Curcuma longa L. (Zingiberaceae family), which is a popular spice and food color and has been actively researched for decades. It has been shown to have a variety of pharmacological properties both in vitro and in vivo. Several investigations have shown that curcumin's metabolites contribute to its pharmacological effectiveness. Read More

The consumption of cereals and grains, along with whole grain food, is considered a healthy food that has various health benefits. Minerals, proteins, carbohydrates, and vitamins are present in the diet of many people. Phytochemicals play an essential role in combating oxidative stress and are present in high amounts in grains. These phytochemicals are also known as secondary metabolites that are present in plants. T Read More

Aim: This paper examines how consumers' purchase intentions and actual purchase behavior for organic food products are related to the moderating effect of availability and its relationship with those two variables. Methods: Using structural equation modeling, a structured survey of 250 participants revealed that the three components of the theory of planned behavior-attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavi Read More

Lung cancer has emerged as one of the most often reported illnesses and leading causes of mortality worldwide. Inefficient, lack of safety, low therapeutic index, unpleasant effects, and excessive cost have led to a loss of trust in synthetic medications, limiting their use. Natural compounds have good anticancer potential without unwanted toxic effects. Among them, flavonoids are the most important compounds. Flavonoids Read More

The novel Coronavirus has brought global mortality, disruption, and a significant loss of life. A compromised immune system is a known risk factor for all viral influenza infections. Due to the perceived “immune-boosting” properties of nutraceutical products, sales of dietary supplements have grown globally. In recent years, consumers have increasingly demanded nutraceutical products rather than curative synthetic medicines Read More

Background: Air pollution has been linked with gut microbiota dysbiosis. Ingested environmental pollutants may alter gut microbiota compositions by changing the environment of the gut. Gut microbiota dysbiosis has been observed in children with asthma, linking the possible role of gut microbiota with systemic immune response and asthma. Methods: This paper aims to identify current science on how prebiotics, probiot Read More

Background: RASFF notifications serve to determine the hazards responsible for food and feed. In case of determining risks to human health, the information provided to member countries via the rapid alarm system at the same time warned us to take the necessary measures. Objectives: In this research, the RASFF portal alerts over the last three years related to aflatoxins in hazelnut, fig, and peanut products were examined Read More

Background: Wallace melon has a powerful, pleasant aroma when ripe. However, little is understood about the aroma profile and the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) biosynthesis during ripening. Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the metabolome and transcriptome of Wallace melon to study the mechanism underlying its aroma formation systematically. Methods: HS-SPME/GC-MS and RNA-Seq were use Read More
