“…When compared to a placebo (i.e., water), kiwifruit supplementation was related with increased resistance to H2O2-induced DNA injury (i.e., a significantly lower number of DNA breaks), but no significant difference could be seen for endogenous DNA damage. [3,5,19,31,32]. Antioxidants are now a popular issue in modern science because they are not generated by the human body naturally and must be acquired from artificial sources or foods like kiwi fruit.…”

A kiwi fruit commonly known as ‘Green kiwi’ traced under the family Actinidiaceae having Actinidia genus and species deliciosa. Kiwi fruits are the superior as compared with other commonly consumed fruit for their nutrient density, health benefits and consumer’s appeal. It is crammed with wide variety of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and phytoconstituents. A range of phytochemicals are found in kiwi which include the triterpenoids, saponins, amino acids, carotenoids, carbohydrates and sugars, phenolic compounds such as flavonoids, polyphenols, anthraquinones and coumarins. These constituents render the wide variety of pharmacological activities. Immense amount of vitamin C pointed for a promising treatment of catastrophic disease involving cancer and heart diseases. Other activity includes antibacterial activity, anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, anti-hypertensive, anti-thrombin, anti-asthmatic, hepatoprotective, anti-platelet, anti-constipation, anti-carcinogenic, anti-fungal, antiviral and anti-tumour. This review provides a brief knowledge about botanical aspects, chemical constituents and recent biological or pharmacological activities of kiwi fruit.

“…Due to its high vitamin C content, which is considered necessary for immunity, it gained much importance in the human diet. In addition, antioxidants in mosambi juice help prevent cancer and other cardiac diseases [113]. Accordingly, clarification of mosambi juice using ceramic membranes was proposed by several researchers.…”

Ceramic Membranes for Citrus Fruit Juice Clarification: A Systematic Review

et al. 2023

Membrane separation processes are becoming a significant part of fruit juice processing industries because of their excellent selectivity, absence of thermal and chemical treatments, and energy efficiency. Specifically, the applicability of ceramic membranes in citrus fruit juice clarification is more promising as they are highly stable in a corrosive environment and have a longer lifetime. However, ceramic membranes are costlier than polymeric membranes due to the high cost of raw materials. Therefore, numerous alternative low‐cost precursors for making the ceramic membrane are being utilized. Accordingly, the current review is focused on the different low‐cost raw materials and various fabrication methods to synthesize different ceramic membranes. Further, the ceramic membrane's application in fruit juice clarification is intensely discussed. In any membrane separation process, fouling is an unavoidable constraint. In the current review, various mechanisms involved in fouling are emphasized in detail. In addition, a variety of techniques to reduce fouling are extensively deliberated. Furthermore, ceramic membranes' challenges and future perspectives for further development are also systematically highlighted.

“…The scavenging of these radicals is a known pathway for antioxidants to function (Rafiq et al, 2022; Sosalagere et al, 2022). More qualitatively, antioxidants derived from sprouts on consumption could influence their functionalities at the molecular level of cells by initiating single electron transfers, hydrogen atom transfer, and metal chelation (Kehinde, Nayik, & Rafiq, 2020; Santos‐Sánchez et al, 2019). In most recently conducted studies however, a subsequent proteolysis of sprouting‐hydrolyzed proteins with enzymes is typically conducted, but this route bears the superlative advantage of significantly higher degree of hydrolysis relative to the enzymatic hydrolysis of the vegetables in their unsprouted states.…”

The employment of proteases directly from enzymes or indirectly from microorganisms during fermentation for the purpose of proteolysis of food proteins has been the conventional trend for the derivation of bioactive peptides from food matrices. However, recent studies have shown that inherent protease enzymes can be activated for this activity for vegetable foods using the sprouting process. The benefits of ease of operation, and reduced processing costs are formidable advantages for the optimal consideration of this technique. On another note, the demand for functional foods with therapeutic health effects has increased in recent years. Globally, plant foods are perceived as dietetic choices bearing sufficient quantities of concomitant nutraceuticals. In this manuscript, the sprouting route for the isolation of peptides and glucosinolates, and for the enhancement of total phenolic contents, polyunsaturated fatty acid profiles, and other bioactive constituents was explored. Advances regarding the phytochemical transformations in the course of sprouting, the therapeutic functionalities, and microbiological safety concerns of vegetable sprouts are delineated. In addition, consumption of vegetable sprouts has been shown to be more efficient in supplying nutraceutical components relative to their unsprouted counterparts. Biochemical mechanisms involving the inhibition of digestive enzymes such as α‐amylase, β‐glucosidase, and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP‐IV), single electron transfer, and metal chelation, for impartation of health benefits, have been reported to occur from bioactive components isolated from vegetable sprouts. Practical applications Sprouting initiates proteolysis of vegetable proteins for the release of bioactive peptides. Abiotic stresses can be used as elicitors during the sprouting process to achieve enhanced phytochemical profiles of sprouts. Sprouting is a relatively more convenient approach to the improvement of the health benefits of vegetable foods. Vegetable sprouts are potential for the management of metabolic syndrome disorders.
