GABA and Rice Research

Microbial bioactive peptides represent a promising class of natural compounds with significant potential as neuroprotective agents. Produced through fermentation, these peptides show antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and immunomodulatory activities. Their ability to modulate the gut-brain axis further enh…

Bacchus Ⓡ -incorporated gwapyeon was formulated as a functional starch-based gel confectionery to evaluate the effects of starch type and concentration on its physicochemical properties, antioxidant capacity, texture, and consumer preference.Three starch types (corn, mung bean, and potato) were applied at three concen…

The limited storability of hawthorn fruits is primarily due to rapid metabolic changes that compromise fruit quality. While cold storage is recommended to stall this process, it can induce chilling injury (CI) characterized by pitting. In this study, the impact of γ ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) (GABA‐0, GABA‐5 mM, and GA…

• GABA treatment improved antioxidant defense mechanisms of strawberry. • GABA treatment reduced microbial activity and decay incidence of strawberry. • GABA attenuated oxidative stress of strawberry. Strawberries is a non-climacteric, nutrient-rich fruit that exhibits a short shelf life and is prone to decay during c…

In this study, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus strains isolated from traditional yogurts in Türkiye were screened for their gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) production potential. High GABA-producing strains were selected and used to develop GABA-enriched yogurt through monosodi…

• Leaf sheaths of red sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor ) are a plant waste rich in 3 deoxyanthocyanidins. • UAE and NADES facilitated the extraction of 3-deoxyanthocyanidins • NADES gave higher antioxidant, antimicrobial and antidiabetic activities. • NADES extract gave higher bioaccessibility of 3-deoxyanthocyanidins. • NAD…

A common food additive, monosodium glutamate (MSG), is a source of glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, and has been associated with neuronal damage at high levels. Taurine (TAU), a naturally occurring amino acid, is widely used in energy drinks alongside caffeine and sugar…

Depression is a multifactorial mental disorder in which the gut–brain axis and gut microbiota have been suggested to play important roles. This study aimed to investigate the effects of psychobiotic (Bifidobacterium breve CCFM1025) and prebiotic (inulin) interventions on gut microbiota composition and depression-like…

Abstract Incorporation of byproducts into food systems and research on their potential bioactivity has a considerable impact on circular food systems. This study evaluates physicochemical and functional properties of rice bran (RB) as an ingredient in a food model. Rice starch was replaced partially with RB at differe…
