- 1st Natural products application: health, cosmetic and food: book of abstractsPublication . Barros, Lillian (Ed.); Melgar Castañeda, Bruno (Ed.); Shiraishi, Carlos Seiti Hurtado (Ed.)The Mountain Research Center is one of the research groups working within the Polytechnic Institute of Braganza, in Braganza Portugal. Since the foundation of this center in 2003, more than a thousand research items have been published throughout more than 40 international public funding’s, allowing the center to interact internationally with many research groups from the academy and also with the private sector. In all these years, we have had the commitment of disseminating science around the world, creating solid and robust bonds and partnerships with both, academia and industrial innovator, and we are always looking for more challenging collaborations. In this sense, the mountain research center gathers di erent ways to keep evolving our main mission of Science dissemination. In the present moment, where we all are involved in ghting against the current problem the world is facing, we have decided to join the scienti c community adopting the available resources in order to keep the owing communication of our works. Therefore, one of our responses was the creation of the rst edition of the Natural Product Applications Online Congress, which focuses on the dissemination of works involved in the cosmetic, food, and health industries. Thanks to all of you in less than a month the congress reached more than 450 registration from universities and important companies from di erent parts of the world. The NPA congress received and processed more than 200 communications, from which the scienti c committee has selected and referred each of them to their appropriate type for communication considering the limited time we will have ahead. All the submitted works were divided into three main categories, Oral, Pitch, and Poster communications which add them up to our 9 Keynote lectures, and one special oral communication. We could not thank you more for your participations, and we hope to see you next year on the second edition of the Natural Product Applications Congress.
- Innovation in Mediterranean Traditional Foods: Novel Products and Processes: book of abstractsPublication . Fernandes, Luana (Ed.); Gonçalves, Alexandre (Ed.); Barros, Lillian (Ed.)The Mediterranean diet involves a set of skills, knowledge, rituals, symbols and traditions concerning crops, harvesting, fishing, animal husbandry, conservation, processing, cooking, and particularly the sharing and consumption of food. Food is key but does not stand alone. Hence, how can we innovate in mediterranean traditional foods, introducing new products, and process, and still maintain our intangible cultural heritage of (for) humanity? This international conference brought together researchers, industry, professionals, and consumers to share innovative ideas in this field and share results from the research and innovative work being developed across the Mediterranean region with a special focus on the development of: Innovative plant-based dairy analogues; Plant and nut-based flours and development of bakery products and pasta; Innovative added-value traditional ready-to-eat meals. The IMTF - 2022 team would like to thank you for your application to the congress, contributing to its success. The submitted works were received, processed, divided into two main categories (Oral Communications and Posters), and later distributed according to the aforementioned topics. In total, 19 Oral and 24 Panel Communications were presented, joined by 6 Keynotes and 3 Plenary lectures. Once again, we would like to thank you all for attending our congress, and we hope to see you again at future research events.
- Natural secondary metabolites: from nature, through science, to industryPublication . Carocho, Márcio (Ed.); Heleno, Sandrina A. (Ed.); Barros, Lillian (Ed.)This book focuses on the different compounds (polyphenols, sterols, alkaloids terpenes) that arise from the secondary metabolism of plants and fungi and their importance for research and industry. These compounds have been the backbone and inspiration of various industries like the food, pharmaceutical and others to produce synthetic counterparts. Furthermore, many of these compounds are still widely used to carry out specific functions in all these industries. This book offers a compilation of different texts from world leading scientists in the areas of chemistry, biochemistry, plant science, biotechnology which compile information on each group of secondary metabolism compounds, and their most important applications in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and textile industry. By showcasing the best uses of these compounds, the chemistry behind their production in plants and fungi, this book is a valuable resource and a "go to" artifact for various audiences. The new approach this book offers, by linking research and the application of these compounds, makes it interesting as an inspiration for new research or as a hallmark of what has been done in the secondary metabolism of plants and fungi in recent years. Although this book may be technical, it is also enjoyable as an integral reading experience due to a structured and integrated flow, from the origins of secondary metabolism in organisms, to the discovery of their effects, their high intensity research in recent years and translation into various industries. Beyond learning more on their chemistry, synthesis, metabolic pathway, readers will understand their importance to different research and industry.
- TRANSCOLAB SUMMIT: Trends in grain-based foods: book of abstractsPublication . Barros, Lillian (Ed.); Melgar Castañeda, Bruno (Ed.); Shiraishi, Carlos Seiti Hurtado (Ed.)TRANSCOLAB is a European project that brings together universities, research centres, foundations, and companies from Castilla y León and Northern Portugal. This project intends to strengthen the connection between research institutions and companies, identifying the challenges and needs of the cereal industry and the existing scientific-technological capacities of the participating entities. It also aims to generate novel products, promote knowledge and innovation transfer, and develop a series of actions to promote innovative products and processes in the cereal sector, particularly in bakery and pastry. Therefore, and because the project is coming to an end, the TRANSCOLAB partners organised an international congress, bringing together researchers and professionals to share innovative ideas in this field. The congress is divided into four different topics: 1. Past as key to the future (ancient grains, wholemeal products, and sourdoughs) 2. New Ingredients in grain-based products (Pseudocereals, pulses, and new flour sources) 3. Novel technologies, processes, and products 4. Sustainability and Circular economy. The TRANSCOLAB SUMMIT team would like to thank you for your application to the congress, contributing to its success, with more than 170 registrations. The submitted works were received, processed, divided into two main categories (Oral Communications and Posters), and later distributed according to the aforementioned topics. In total, 34 Oral and 42 Panel Communications will be presented, joined by three Technical Communications and six plenary lectures. Moreover, the TRANSCOLAB SUMMIT will start with a Traditional and Innovative Bakery workshop, with 45 participants. On the SUMMIT’s last day, we will have a discussion panel regarding “Myths and truths regarding cereal consumption”. Once again, we would like to thank you all for attending our congress, and we hope to see you again at future research events.
