Albuquerque, T.G.; Sanches-Silva, A.; Finglas, P.; D'Antuono, L.F.; Trichopoulou, A.; Alexieva, I.; Boyko, N.; Costea, C.; Fedosova, K.; Karpenko, D.Objectives: This work was performed within the collaborative research program Sustainable exploitation of bioactive components from the Black Sea Area traditional foods (BaSeFood), funded by the European Commission. The overall objective of this study was to determine the total fat content and fatty acids (FA) composition among 33 traditional foods from six Black Sea Area countries (BSAC). Method: Total fat ana...
Provitamin A activity in traditional foods from Black Sea Area countries
Sanches-Silva, A.; Albuquerque, T.G.; Finglas, P.; Trichopoulou, A.; D'Antuono, L.F.; Alexieva, I.; Boyko, N.; Costea, C.; Fedosova, K.; Karpenko, D.Introduction and objectives: Vitamin A is found in the form of retinol, retinal, retinoic acid or esters in animal sources, while in plant sources, it is in the form of provitamin A. Conjugated double bonds of carotenoids absorb light and are responsible for the brilliant colours of fruits and vegetables ranging from the yellow, orange to red. Moreover, they protect cells from oxidation and cellular damages, pr...
Recent achievements in food composition information of traditional foods from E...
Costa, H.S.; Sanches-Silva, A.; Albuquerque, T.G.; Trichopoulou, A.; Vasilopoulou, E.; D'Antuono, L.F.; Finglas, P.Comunicação oral a convite. ; Objectives: A trend towards the rediscovering of traditional foods has emerged as a reaction to the impact of globalization, in order to protect and maintain the diversity of regional food and agricultural traditions. Research in food composition, particularly traditional foods, is essential to understand their implications in human health and trace recommendations for an improved...
Analysis of Carotenoids, Vitamins and Folates in Traditional Foods from Black ...
Sanches-Silva, A.; Albuquerque, T.G.; Ribeiro, T.; Valente, A.; Finglas, P.; Flores, A.C.; Santos, M.; D’Antuono, L.F.; Costa, H.S.Nowadays, consumers are much more aware of nutritional composition and show especially interest in compounds with putative health benefits. Therefore, in the last few years, great attention has been devoted to the study of bioactive compounds in order to promote the consumption of traditional foods. The European project BaSeFood (Sustainable Exploitation of Bioactive Components Black Sea Area Traditional Foods...
Bioactive phytosterols and fatty acids profile of traditional foods from black ...
Albuquerque, T.G.; Sanches-Silva, A.; Finglas, P.; D’Antuono, L.F.; Costa, H.S.; on behalf of the BaSeFood Black Sea area partnersPhytosterols (PS) are abundant in foods of plant origin and vegetable oils. These compounds have received particular attention due to their capability to lower serum cholesterol levels, resulting in significant reduction of the risk of heart disease. Also, the consumption of fatty acids (FA) is important because it can be associated with both negative and beneficial health effects, depending on the FA. This wor...
Traditional foods of Black Sea Countries
Vasilopoulou, E.; Dilis, V.; Finglas, P.; Costa, H.S.; D’Antuono, L.F.; Trichopoulou, A.; on behalf of the BaSeFood Black Sea area partnersINTRODUCTION: Traditional dietary patterns, generally beneficial to health as judged over time, should be promoted beyond the native country’s borders. Scientific data is a prerequisite for the successful promotion of a sustainable diet. The Mediterranean diet is a distinguished example of such a dietary pattern. Accumulating scientific evidence has established it globally as a model diet. OBJECTIVES: A fra...
Variability of glucosinolates and phenolics in local kale populations from Turk...
Ferioli, F.; Manco, M.; Giambanelli, E.; D'Antuono, L.F.; Albuquerque, T.G.; Sanches-Silva, A.; Koçaoglu, B.; Hayran, O.Rationale and objectives. Leafy forms of Brassica oleracea L. are generally known as kales or collards. They are traditional crops of several areas of Europe (Portugal, Spain, Scotland, Holland, Italy) and in Turkey, well rooted in local farming and food systems, but far lesser known as commercial crops. Glucosinolates are typical components of the Brassicaceae family, to which kales belong, presently valued as...
