Abstract
Sugar maple leaves (SML), usually considered residue plant biomass and discarded accordingly, contain a considerable amount of phenolic antioxidants. In this study, SML phenolics were extracted employing both advanced (homogenization pretreated ultrasound-assisted extraction) and conventional (maceration) methods followed by their encapsulation by freeze drying and spray drying using a combination of maltodextrin and gum arabic as coating agents. Detailed physicochemical analyses revealed that the encapsulated microparticles had high solubility (>90 %) and encapsulation efficiency (>95 %), acceptable thermal stability with good handling properties. Phenolic compounds were completely released from microparticles during simulated gastric conditions. The microparticles influenced the bioaccessibility of more than 43 % of the phenolic fraction in the intestinal phase. The antioxidant capacity of the microparticles was preserved during storage. These findings suggest the effectiveness of the microencapsulation process for producing high quality microparticles of SML phenolic extracts and the possibility of their use in the food, nutraceutical, bio-pharmaceutical sectors.

Abstract
Ultraviolet radiation's germicidal efficacy depends on several parameters, including wavelength, radiant exposure, microbial physiology, biological matrices, and surfaces. In this work, several ultraviolet radiation sources (a low-pressure mercury lamp, a KrCl excimer, and four UV LEDs) emitting continuous or pulsed irradiation were compared. The greatest log reductions in E. coli cells and B. subtilis endospores were 4.1 ± 0.2 (18 mJ cm-2) and 4.5 ± 0.1 (42 mJ cm-2) with continuous 222 nm, respectively. The highest MS2 log reduction observed was 2.7 ± 0.1 (277 nm at 3809 mJ cm-2). Log reductions of SARS-CoV-2 with continuous 222 nm and 277 nm were ≥ 3.4 ± 0.7, with 13.3 mJ cm-2 and 60 mJ cm-2, respectively. There was no statistical difference between continuous and pulsed irradiation (0.83-16.7% [222 nm and 277 nm] or 0.83-20% [280 nm] duty rates) on E. coli inactivation. Pulsed 260 nm radiation (0.5% duty rate) at 260 nm yielded significantly greater log reduction for both bacteria than continuous 260 nm radiation. There was no statistical difference in SARS-CoV-2 inactivation between continuous and pulsed 222 nm UV-C radiation and pulsed 277 nm radiation demonstrated greater germicidal efficacy than continuous 277 nm radiation. Greater radiant exposure for all radiation sources was required to inactivate MS2 bacteriophage. Findings demonstrate that pulsed irradiation could be more useful than continuous UV radiation in human-occupied spaces, but threshold limit values should be respected. Pathogen-specific sensitivities, experimental setup, and quantification methods for determining germicidal efficacy remain important factors when optimizing ultraviolet radiation for surface decontamination or other applications.

Abstract
Concentrations of antioxidant components (analyzed by HPLC-UV) and antioxidant attributes (assayed by radical scavenging and non-radical redox potential methods) of sugar maple leaves (SML) from different harvesting times were investigated. Moreover, measurements of colorimetry, SEM, and FTIR spectroscopy-based characterization of leaves composition, throughout the growth cycle, were performed. Results showed that the antioxidant activities of SML are strongly correlated with phenolic contents and significantly (p < 0.05) varied with harvesting time where minimum amount of total phenolics (105.67 ± 13.16 mg GAE/g DM) and total flavonoids (3.27 ± 0.26 mg CTE/g DM) were found to be concentrated in Fall leaves. The absorption bands obtained from FTIR spectra revealed the presence of functional groups that have great significance towards the antioxidant activity of SML. Principal component analysis revealed that biosynthesis of maximum phenolic compounds in SML mostly occurs during the leaf expansion and growth phases. The obtained data provided a better understanding towards the effect of harvesting time on the phenolic mapping of SML in favor of its valorization into functional food ingredients.

Abstract
Efficient determination of antioxidant activity in medicinal plants may provide added value to extracts. The effects of postharvest pre-freezing and drying [microwave-assisted hot air (MAHD) and freeze drying] on hops and cannabis were evaluated to determine the relationship between antioxidant activity and secondary metabolites. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazine (DPPH) reduction and ferric reducing ability of power (FRAP) assays were assessed for suitability in estimating the antioxidant activity of extracted hops and cannabis inflorescences and correlation with cannabinoid and terpene content. Antioxidant activity in extracts obtained from fresh, undried samples amounted to 3.6 Trolox equivalent antioxidant activity (TEAC) (M) dry matter-1 and 2.32 FRAP (M) dry matter-1 for hops, in addition to 2.29 TEAC (M) dry matter-1 and 0.25 FRAP (M) dry matter-1 for cannabis. Pre-freezing significantly increased antioxidant values by 13% (DPPH) and 29.9% (FRAP) for hops, and by 7.7% (DPPH) and 19.4% (FRAP) for cannabis. ANOVA analyses showed a significant (p < 0.05) increase in total THC (24.2) and THCA (27.2) concentrations (g 100 g dry matter-1) in pre-frozen, undried samples compared to fresh, undried samples. Freeze-drying and MAHD significantly (p < 0.05) reduced antioxidant activity in hops by 79% and 80.2% [DPPH], respectively and 70.1% and 70.4% [FRAP], respectively, when compared to antioxidant activity in extracts obtained from pre-frozen, undried hops. DPPH assay showed that both freeze-drying and MAHD significantly (p < 0.05) reduced the antioxidant activity of cannabis by 60.5% compared to the pre-frozen samples although, there was no significant (p < 0.05) reduction in the antioxidant activity using the FRAP method. Greater THC content was measured in MAHD-samples when compared to fresh, undried (64.7%) and pre-frozen, undried (57%), likely because of decarboxylation. Both drying systems showed a significant loss in total terpene concentration, yet freeze-drying has a higher metabolite retention compared to MAHD. These results may prove useful for future experiments investigating antioxidant activity and added value to cannabis and hops.

Abstract
This study presents modeling and optimization of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) of Melastoma malabathricum with the objective of evaluating its phytochemical properties. This one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) procedure was conducted to screen for optimization variables whose domains included extraction temperature (XET), ultrasonic time (XUT), solvent concentration (XSC), and sample-to-liquid ratio (XSLR). Response surface methodology (RSM) coupled with Box-Behnken design (BBD) was applied to establish optimum conditions for maximum antioxidant extraction. Modeling and optimization conditions of UAE at 37 kHz, XET 32 °C for XUT 16 min and dissolved in an XSC 70% ethanol concentration at a XSLR 1:10 ratio yielded scavenging effects on 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) at 96% ± 1.48 and recorded values of total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) at 803.456 ± 32.48 mg GAE (gallic acid equivalents)/g, and 102.972 ± 2.51 mg QE (quercetin equivalents)/g, respectively. The presence of high flavonoid compounds was verified using TWIMS-QTOFMS. Chromatic evaluation of phytochemicals using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) revealed the presence of 14 phytocompounds widely documented to play significant roles in human health. This study provides a comparative evaluation with other studies and may be used for validation of the species' potential for its much-acclaimed medicinal and cosmeceutical uses.

Abstract
Limited studies have explored different extraction techniques that improve cannabis extraction with scale-up potential. Ultrasound-assisted and microwave-assisted extraction were evaluated to maximize the yield and concentration of cannabinoids and terpenes. A central composite rotatable design was used to optimize independent factors (sample-to-solvent ratio, extraction time, extraction temperature, and duty cycle). The optimal conditions for ultrasound- and microwave-assisted extraction were the sample-to-solvent ratios of 1:15 and 1:14.4, respectively, for 30 min at 60 °C. Ultrasound-assisted extraction yielded 14.4% and 14.2% more oil and terpenes, respectively, compared with microwave-assisted extracts. Ultrasound-assisted extraction increased cannabinoid concentration from 13.2−39.2%. Considering reference ground samples, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid increased from 17.9 (g 100 g dry matter−1) to 28.5 and 20 with extraction efficiencies of 159.2% and 111.4% for ultrasound-assisted and microwave-assisted extraction, respectively. Principal component analyses indicate that the first two principal components accounted for 96.6% of the total variance (PC1 = 93.2% and PC2 = 3.4%) for ultrasound-assisted extraction and 92.4% of the total variance (PC1 = 85.4% and PC2 = 7%) for microwave-assisted extraction. Sample-to-solvent ratios significantly (p < 0.05) influenced the secondary metabolite profiles and yields for ultrasound-assisted extracts, but not microwave-assisted extracts.

Abstract
Efficient cannabis biomass extraction can increase yield while reducing costs and minimizing waste. Cold ethanol extraction was evaluated to maximize yield and concentrations of cannabinoids and terpenes at different temperatures. Central composite rotatable design was used to optimize two independent factors: sample-to-solvent ratio (1:2.9 to 1:17.1) and extraction time (5.7 min-34.1 min). With response surface methodology, predicted optimal conditions at different extraction temperatures were a cannabis-to-ethanol ratio of 1:15 and a 10 min extraction time. With these conditions, yields (g 100 g dry matter-1) were 18.2, 19.7, and 18.5 for -20 °C, -40 °C and room temperature, respectively. Compared to the reference ground sample, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid changed from 17.9 (g 100 g dry matter-1) to 15, 17.5, and 18.3 with an extraction efficiency of 83.6%, 97.7%, 102.1% for -20 °C, -40 °C, and room temperature, respectively. Terpene content decreased by 54.1% and 32.2% for extraction at -20 °C and room temperature, respectively, compared to extraction at -40 °C. Principal component analysis showed that principal component 1 and principal component 2 account for 88% and 7.31% of total variance, respectively, although no significant differences in cold ethanol extraction at different temperatures were observed.

Abstract
This study aimed to efficiently convert banana peels (BP) into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) by using an integrated mechanoenzymatic/catalytic approach. There is no report on HMF production using mechanoenzymatic hydrolysis. Moreover, this method enables saccharification of lignocellulose without bulk solvents or pretreatment. The effects of the reaction volume, milling time, and reactive aging (RAging) on the mechanoenzymatic hydrolysis of BP were studied. The solvent-free enzymatic hydrolysis of BP under RAging conditions was found to provide higher glucose (40.5 wt%) and fructose (17.2 wt%) yields than chemical hydrolysis. Next, the conversion of the resulting monosaccharides into HMF in the presence of the AlCl3·H2O/HCl-DMSO/H2O system resulted in 71.9 mol% yield, which is so far the highest HMF yield obtained from cellulosic food wastes. Under identical reaction conditions, direct conversion of untreated BP to HMF yielded 22.7 mol% HMF, suggesting that mechanoenzymatic hydrolysis greatly promotes the release of sugars from BP to improve HMF yield.

Abstract
Plasma activated water (PAW) is one of the promising technologies for fresh food disinfection. In this study, PAW was generated by activating water under nonthermal plasma for 10, 20, 30, 45 and 60 min. The effectiveness of Escherichia coli inactivation by PAW treatment on kale and spinach samples was assessed. The differences between kale and spinach samples in terms of the product quality and nutritional characteristics upon PAW treatment was also investigated. Further, changes in leaf structure and surface morphology upon PAW treatment was also evaluated through FTIR cuticle analysis and SEM imaging of leaf surfaces. Results showed that, around 6 log CFU/g reduction in E. coli population was observed in PAW-45 min treatment. However, PAW treatment significantly reduced the total chlorophyll content in both kale and spinach. The total phenolic content, flavonoid content and ascorbic content were altered according to the PAW activation time. Further, kale and spinach behaved differently in terms of antioxidant activity and membrane electrolytic leakage values upon PAW treatment. Clear changes in the cuticular layer and the surface morphological characteristics of the leaf samples were observed after PAW which could be the reason for the significant differences between kale and spinach characteristics in response to PAW treatments.

Abstract
The use of waste stream residues as feedstock for material production simultaneously helps reduce dependence on fossil-based resources and to shift toward a circular economy. This study explores the conversion of food waste into valuable chemicals, namely, bio-pigments. Here, a simulated food waste feedstock was converted into pigments via solid-state fermentation with the filamentous fungus Talaromyces albobiverticillius (NRRL 2120). Pigments including monascorubrin, rubropunctatin, and 7-(2-hydroxyethyl)-monascorubramine were identified as products of the fermentation via ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Pigments were obtained at concentrations of 32.5, 20.9, and 22.4 AU/gram dry substrate for pigments absorbing at 400, 475, and 500 nm, respectively. Pigment production was further enhanced by co-culturing T. albobiverticillius with Trichoderma reesei (NRRL 3652), and ultimately yielded 63.8, 35.6, and 43.6 AU/gds at the same respective wavelengths. This represents the highest reported production of pigments via solid-state fermentation of a non-supplemented waste stream feedstock. KEY POINTS: • Simulated food waste underwent solid-state fermentation via filamentous fungi. • Bio-pigments were obtained from fermentation of the simulated food waste. • Co-culturing multiple fungal species substantially improved pigment production.

Abstract
Pisum sativum is a leguminous crop suitable for cultivation worldwide. It is used as a forage or dried seed supplement in animal feed and, more recently, as a potential non-traditional oilseed. This study aimed to develop a low-cost, rapid, and non-destructive method for analyzing pea lipids with no chemical modifications that would prove superior to existing destructive solvent extraction methods. Different pea accession seed samples, prepared as either small portions (0.5 mm2) of endosperm or ground pea seed powder for comparison, were subjected to HR-MAS NMR analyses and whole seed samples underwent NIR analyses. The total lipid content ranged between 0.57-3.45% and 1.3-2.6% with NMR and NIR, respectively. Compared to traditional extraction with butanol, hexane-isopropanol, and petroleum ether, correlation coefficients were 0.77 (R2 = 0.60), 0.56 (R2 = 0.47), and 0.78 (R2 = 0.62), respectively. Correlation coefficients for NMR compared to traditional extraction increased to 0.97 (R2 = 0.99) with appropriate correction factors. PLS regression analyses confirmed the application of this technology for rapid lipid content determination, with trends fitting models often close to an R2 of 0.95. A better robust NIR quantification model can be developed by increasing the number of samples with more diversity.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to explore the use of filamentous fungi as oxidative biocatalysts. To that end, filamentous fungal whole-cells, comprising five different species were employed in the oxidation of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF). Two species (A. niger and T. reesei), which demonstrated superior HMF conversion and product accumulation, were further evaluated for growth on alternative substrates (e.g. pentoses) as well as for use in a chemo-biocatalytic reaction system. Concerning the latter, the two whole-cell biocatalysts were coupled with laccase/TEMPO in a one-pot reaction designed to enable catalysis of the three oxidative steps necessary to convert HMF into 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), a compound with immense potential in the production of sustainable and eco-friendly polymers. Ultimately, the optimal one-pot chemo-biocatalytic cascade system, comprising 1 g/L T. reesei whole cells coupled with 2.5 mM laccase and 20 mol% TEMPO, achieved a molar yield of 88% after 80 h.

Abstract
Although containing significant levels of phenolic compounds (PCs), leaves biomass coming from either forest, agriculture, or the processing industry are considered as waste, which upon disposal, brings in environmental issues. As the demand for PCs in functional food, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and cosmetic sector is escalating day by day, recovering PCs from leaves biomass would solve both the waste disposal problem while ensuring a valuable "societal health" ingredient thus highly contributing to a sustainable food chain from both economic and environmental perspectives. In our search for environmentally benign, efficient, and cost-cutting techniques for the extraction of PCs, green extraction (GE) is presenting itself as the best option in modern industrial processing. This current review aims to highlight the recent progress, constraints, legislative framework, and future directions in GE and characterization of PCs from leaves, concentrating particularly on five plant species (tea, moringa, stevia, sea buckthorn, and pistacia) based on the screened journals that precisely showed improvements in extraction efficiency along with maintaining extract quality. This overview will serve researchers and relevant industries engaged in the development of suitable techniques for the extraction of PCs with increasing yield.

Abstract
Processing of Russian olive water kefir (RWK), as a fermented functional drink made with Russian olive juice and water kefir grains with high antioxidant activity, into powder is crucial for improving its stability for the commercialization of this product. For the first time, this study aimed to encapsulate water kefir microorganisms and bioactive compounds in RWK using carrier materials to develop a synbiotic functional powder using spray drying as an encapsulation method. The goal was maximizing antioxidant activity, product yield, and survival rate of water kefir microorganisms in the produced Russian olive water kefir powder. The optimal spray drying conditions were observed to be at an inlet air temperature of 120ºC, 35 % feed flow rate, and 7 % concentration of drying aid. The effects of spray drying conditions on the quality of microcapsules were assessed and modeled, and the validity of the model was verified. Also, the spray-dried powder's physicochemical properties were assessed and showed promising microbial and physicochemical characteristics compared with the freeze-dried powder.

Abstract
The basis of a plant's spectral response of photosynthesis, or the photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) curve, is derived from earlier studies nearly five decades ago. These studies reported that blue and red light were the primary wavelengths; however, shifting within red and blue peaks (10-40 nm) in addition to different PAR curve shapes was observed. In recent years, the McCree curve, which is considered the standard for spectral response of photosynthesis, has been challenged because of experimental design and differences between photosynthetic and whole-plant growth responses. Therefore, this overview provides an amalgamation of all the PAR curve studies, with a focus on narrow spectrum light characteristics, including light measurement units, full width at half maximums (FWHMs) of narrow light spectra, and light intensity levels. While replicating these pioneering works with higher wavelength resolution and narrower light spectrum across the whole visible spectrum is still challenging, we hope that this re-interpretation of PAR curves in plants can elucidate and provide in-depth insight into spectral responses of photosynthesis. We leave the readers with some different perspectives and prospects that need to be considered for future studies.

Abstract
This study reports the colour changes using CIELAB measurements (L*a*b* color space) and their correlation with time, temperature, total soluble solids (TSS), and pH during the processing of Arenga pinnata (palm) sap into granulated sugar. As a function of time, the sap became darker, more red, and more yellow indicating a continuous decrease of L* values, and an increase in both a* and b* values. A constant decrease of L* and an increase of a* and b* were particularly observed when TSS of the sap was more than 33.5%. During the process, regression analysis showed that a linear pattern was indicated for total colour difference (ΔE*) with time, whereas a non linear relationship was shown for ΔE* with TSS, temperature and pH. Stirring the syrup changed the L*a*b* values while ΔE* showed a decrease throughout the process. This research will serve as a base for future developments for the manufacture and quality grading of A. pinnata (palm) sugar.

Abstract
Malting is a beneficial approach to improve the nutritional value of cereals used in infant preparations. Malted finger millet and amaranth might be considered as potentially appropriate gluten-free alternatives for common wheat-based weaning products, especially in case of those suffering from celiac disease. In this study, the effects of germination temperature and duration on the main nutrients of malted finger millet and amaranth, are evaluated and optimized. Grains were germinated for 24, 36 and 48 h at 22, 26 and 30 °C. In the case of finger millet, germinating for 48 h at 30 °C resulted into 17% increase in protein availability, 10% increase in total energy and 60% reduction in resistant starch (RS). For amaranth, germinating for 48 h at 26 °C was preferable, resulting in 8% increase in protein availability, 11% increase in total energy, 70% reduction in RS and a 10% increase in the linoleic acid.

Abstract
Finger millet (Eleusine coracana) is a nutritious, gluten-free, and drought resistant cereal containing high amounts of protein, carbohydrate, and minerals. However, bio-availability of these nutrients is restricted due to the presence of an excessive level of anti-nutrient components, mainly phytic acid, tannin, and oxalate. It has been shown that a well-designed malting/germination process can significantly reduce these anti-nutrients and consequently enhance the nutrient availability. In the present study, the effects of two important germination factors, duration and temperature, on the enhancement of in-vitro protein digestibility of finger millet were thoroughly investigated and optimized. Based on a central composite design, the grains were germinated for 24, 36, and 48 h at 22, 26, and 30 °C. For all factor combinations, protein, peptide, phytic acid, tannin, and oxalate contents were evaluated and digestibility was assessed. It was shown that during the malting/germinating process, both temperature and duration factors significantly influenced the investigated quantities. Germination of finger millet for 48 h at 30 °C increased protein digestibility from 74 % (for native grain) up to 91 %. Besides, it notably decreased phytic acid, tannin, and oxalate contents by 45 %, 46 %, and 29 %, respectively. Linear correlations between protein digestibility and these anti-nutrients were observed.

Abstract
Reversed-phase liquid chromatography coupled to negative-ion electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (RP-LC/ESI-MS/MS) was used to study the fatty acid profile from the oil of harvested field pea (Pisum sativum) varieties as part of a research project to develop this legume as a commercial oilseed for Canada. The seed oils from pea samples contained palmitic and stearic acids as major saturated fatty acids. Oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids were the major unsaturated fatty acids found. Small percentages of other long chain fatty acids were also detected. This profile suggests that the species of field pea investigated might have the potential to be used as raw materials to develop a future new oilseed crop for the food industry. Fatty acid extracts did not require further manipulation before final analysis by RP-LC/ESI-MS/MS, indicating the utility and relative simplicity of this technique for future screening studies.

Abstract
The molecular dynamic (MD) modeling approach was applied to evaluate the effect of an external electric field on soybean hydrophobic protein and surface properties. Nominal electric field strengths of 0.002 V/nm and 0.004 V/nm had no major effect on the structure and surface properties of the protein isolate but the higher electric field strength of 3 V/nm significantly affected the protein conformation and solvent accessible surface area. The response of protein isolate to various external field stresses demonstrated that it is necessary to gain insight into protein dynamics under electromagnetic fields in order to be able to develop the techniques utilizing them for food processing and other biological applications.

Abstract
A response surface method was used to optimize the microwave-assisted extraction parameters such as extraction time (t) (min), solvent (methanol) concentration (S) (v/v) and microwave power level (MP) for extraction of antioxidants from potato peels. Max. total phenolics content of 3.94 mg g−1 dry weight (dw) was obtained at S of 67.33%, t of 15 min and a MP of 14.67%. For ascorbic acid (1.44 mg g−1 dw), caffeic acid (1.33 mg g−1 dw), ferulic acid (0.50 mg g−1 dw) max contents were obtained at S of 100%, t of 15 min, and MP of 10%, while the max chlorogenic acid content (1.35 mg g−1 dw) was obtained at S of 100%, t of 5 min, and MP of 10%. The radical scavenging activity of the extract was evaluated by using the DPPH assay and optimum antioxidant activity was obtained at S of 100%, t of 5 min, and MP of 10%.
