Phenolic and Total Flavonoid Contents and Physicochemical Traits of Romanian Monofloral Honeys

Aida Albu et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the chemical composition of Romanian raw monofloral honey and found that the phenolic and flavonoid compounds in honey have antioxidant potential, which is correlated with color intensity, ash content, and electrical conductivity. These findings demonstrate the importance of honey in human nutrition and health.

Chemical composition and antioxidant profile of snails (Cornu aspersum aspersum) fed diets with different protein sources under intensive rearing conditions

A. Gogas et al.

Summary: This study examined the impact of different protein sources in compound diets on the chemical composition, fatty acid levels, and antioxidant profile of Snail meat. Results showed that snails fed with organic soya had higher collagen content, while those fed with Pisum sativum and Lupinus alba had better protein and fat content, a healthier fatty acid profile, and improved antioxidant capacity. These findings provide valuable insights for snail farming practices and production of high-quality snail products.
