The design of a pilot plant for the production of monosodium glutamate
The production of monosodium glutamate has grown from a by-product of the sugar beet industry to an important position in today’s food commodities. Monosodium glutamate is made from Steffan's waste, corn gluten, wheat gluten, and other similar proteinaceous materials. In trying to find moro and …

Effects of Monosodium Glutamate on Objective and Perceived Satiety Among 7- to 9- Year Old Children
Background: Monosodium glutamate (MSG) imparts umami taste associated with proteins and is known to act as a flavor-enhancer. Several adult studies and a recent study of infants suggests that MSG may also have beneficial effects on appetite by promoting satiety. This research is the first to assess …

The development of Galleria mellonella as a model to test the toxicity of food additives
… potassium sorbate, potassium nitrite, caffeine, monosodium glutamate and creatine. Significant increases in catalase activity was seen in the haemolymph of larvae administered sodium benzoate. Significant increases in superoxide dismutase activity were seen in larvae exposed to potassium sorbate, …

The synthesis of glutamic acid from propane
… use as a food, the sodium salt of this compound-monosodium glutamate- is very widely used as a flavoring. Moreover, the pure acid has been found recently to have brain stimulating properties and to increase the intelligence of persons taking it medicinally. There are many methods known for the …

Sensory evaluation of reduced sodium potato chips and puffed rice
… not liked by consumers. Flavor enhancers, like monosodium glutamate (MSG) and disodium inosinate and guanylate (I+G), increase the savory flavor of reduced sodium foods and may allow for greater consumer acceptance. The first objective of this research was to compare the acceptability of …

Direct neuronal and microglia-mediated effects of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors in neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory processes
The group I of metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptor, mGlu1 and mGlu5 receptors are involved in neurodegenerative and in neuro-inflammatory processes. We have examined the role of mGlu5 receptor in a neuroinflammatory context. This receptor is expressed in glial cells and has been reported to play …

The role of the intergeniculate leaflet in the circadian response to light
… to the visual system resulting from neonatal monosodium. glutamate (MSG) treatment. IGL-lesioned rats entrained normally to light-dark cycles consisting of 12 hours of light followed by 12 hours of darkness, and showed the disruption of rhythmicity after prolonged constant light housing seen …

THE CHARACTERIZATION AND REGULATION OF BENZODIAZEPINE BINDING SITES IN THE MAMMALIAN RETINA, CEREBRAL CORTEX AND KIDNEY
… the characteristics of cerebral [³H]FLU binding. Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is toxic to retinal neurons and it was used to ascertain the putative cellular localization of retinal BZD binding sites. Nine weeks following neonatal MSG administration, histologic evidence showed the virtual absence of …

The effect of high-polyphenol sumac on food intake in younger and older adults, using sensory and appetite analysis
… regulating blood glucose levels. Moreover, monosodium glutamate (MSG) has been added to different foods, resulting in flavour enhancement and increased appetite. Hence, it can be hypothesised that sumac, containing glutamic acid, in addition to its high antioxidant and polyphenol content as …
