Highlights
- Microwave roasting modified the composition and oxidative stability of flaxseed oil.
- Short roasting (3 min) maintained antioxidants and improved sensory quality.
- Prolonged roasting increased oxidation and reduced polyunsaturated fatty acids levels.
- Optimal roasting balanced flavor quality and nutritional value.
- Findings support the industrial application of mild microwave roasting for flaxseed oil.

Highlights
- Prolonged reuse of frying oil by street vendors in Morogbo, Lagos State, Nigeria resulted in significant deterioration of oil quality.
- High levels of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) and acrylamide were detected in all oil samples.
- Vendors routinely reused and recycled frying oil without proper regulation or awareness of the associated toxicological risks.

Highlights
- Lactic acid bacteria are recognized as safe inoculants due to their preservation properties, safety, and positive impact on silage quality.
- These inoculants remain underutilized in Moroccan silage production, particularly on small farms.
- The keyword analysis clearly identifies lactic acid bacteria, fermentation, bacterial polysaccharides, and probiotics as core, interrelated concepts central to silage quality and animal health.

Highlights
- Escherichia coli was detected in 75.78% of turkey carcasses, with 52.7% of isolates being multidrug-resistant.
- A significant resistance to chloramphenicol (63.89%), nalidixic acid (59.72%), and florfenicol (56.94%) was detected.
- The virulence genes stx1 (4.17%), stx2 (1.39%), and eae (2.77%) were identified in the isolates.
- The E. coli isolates were assigned to phylotypes A, B1, C, D, and E, while 9.72% remained unclassified.
- The findings highlighted the public health risks associated with antibiotic-resistant STEC and EPEC strains in turkey meat.

Highlights
-
- LSS–HACCP integration improved food safety compliance and operational efficiency in food SMEs.
- Lean tools (e.g., 5S, VSM, TPM, and visual management) reduced waste and improved process standardisation and documentation.
- Six Sigma tools (e.g., DMAIC and FMEA) strengthened data-driven control and risk prioritisation in quality-critical processes.
- Structured integration frameworks remained limited, particularly for SMEs.

Highlights
- Cooking methods significantly affected the proximate composition, vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and antioxidant capacity of Solanecio biafrae leaves.
- Microwave cooking retained the highest folate, vitamin E, and phenolic content.
- Pressure cooking preserved the most protein, vitamin A, and vitamin C.
- Indirect steaming maximized antioxidant activity (DPPH and FRAP), while raw leaves had the best Fe²+ chelation and carbohydrate retention.
