In addition, the invention relates to an insect product, wherein the insect product is any one of live or dead insect, insect puree, minced insect, insect powder, particulate insect, granulated insect, or insect meal, dried insect, oven-dried insect, lyophilized insect, or oven-dried insect using refractive drying obtained from degutted insect provided with the method of the invention. The invention also relates to an insect product, wherein the insect product is insect gut content, wherein the gut content is provided with the method of the invention. Finally, the invention relates to the method, the degutted insect provided with the method, the degutted insect, insects products, insect gut content according to the invention, wherein the insect is black soldier fly, preferably black soldier fly larvae, or wherein the insect is mealworm.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for increasing the content of nutraceuticals and antioxidant capacity of perishable fruits, by combining irradiation with ultraviolet light (UV-C) and storage at freezing temperatures in different presentations. According to the invention, it is possible to increase the concentration of flavonoids, such as phenols and anthocyanins, and also the antioxidant capacity of strawberry fruits (Fragaria x ananassa). The main objective of the present invention is to improve the postharvest quality of fruits, particularly strawberry, by stimulating strawberry fruits with different doses of UV light and different temperatures.

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to extracts and sweetening compositions that may be wholly derived from fruits of the Cucurbitaceae family containing mogroside V and other terpene glycosides. The extracts have a low mogroside V content. The extracts also have a low monosaccharide content, and can be spray-dried to form a spray-dried product. The extracts may be suitable for use as a bulking agent, and can be combined with a terpene glycoside powder. The extracts and sweetening compositions can be used in a food, beverage, and dietary supplement products. Provided are also methods for preparing such extracts and sweetening compositions.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method to increase the absorption by a human infant of at least one unsaturated fatty acid, said method comprising the enteral administration to said infant of recombinant human bile-salt-stimulated lipase (rhBSSL). In another aspect the invention also relates to a method to improve the visual and/or cognitive development of a human infant, said method comprising the enteral administration to said infant of rhBSSL. Such methods have particular utility for preterm human infants, particular those in medical need of increasing their absorption of or availability to such unsaturated fatty acids. In further aspects, the invention relates to kits, packaged-pharmaceutical-products, recombinant human bile-salt-stimulated lipase and pharmaceutical compositions, in each case useful for increasing the absorption by a human infant of at least one unsaturated fatty acid, or for increasing the visual and/or cognitive development of a human infant.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel method for processing a cultured root of purple wild ginseng for increasing saponin content and to the cultured root of the purple wild ginseng which is processed thereby. The present invention can provide the cultured root of wild ginseng having significantly higher content of a specific ginsenoside, and can increase the productivity and economic efficiency by simplifying the production process.
Abstract:
The texture and flavor of bran and germ for the production of whole wheat flour and for the production of baked goods containing whole wheat flour is improved by treating bran and germ with water and an enzyme composition comprising xylanase, pentosanase, or mixtures thereof to hydrate the bran and germ and to enzymatically convert insoluble fiber of the bran and germ into soluble fiber and sugars. The enzymatic conversion is conducted so as to decrease the water holding capacity of the bran and germ and provides a bran and germ product having reduced grittiness and a reduced whole wheat flavor, while avoiding adverse effects on baking functionality. The enzymatic treatment with the xylanase and/or pentosanase may be initiated upon whole wheat berries or grains during tempering, or it may be initiated upon a separated bran and germ fraction obtained after grinding or milling of whole wheat berries or grains.
Abstract:
A composition and method for an avenanthramide-enriched, oat-based product having improved health effects. The oat-based product includes an avenanthramide ingredient having avenanthramides 2c:2p:2f in ratios comprising at least one of 1:1:1 or 1:2:2. More particularly, the avenanthramide ingredient may be derived synthetically or recovered from processing raw oats into constituent oat fractions.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for increasing Vitamin D content in dried mushroom powder irradiates the powder with UV light with wavelengths in the range of about 200 to about 800 nanometers. The powder may be conveyed into the light chamber with a vibratory conveyor. The irradiated mushroom powder has an elevated Vitamin D2 level of at least 14,000 IU/gram.
