Cellulose derived from agricultural by-products as a promising stabilizer for novel food emulsions has been attracting numerous interests. In this work, defatted okara was used to extract insoluble soybean fiber (ISF) under alkaline pH (7.0-12.0). The physicochemical properties of ISF, as well as the formation and stability properties of O/W emulsi...

The thermal weight-loss characteristics and product distribution of the co-pyrolysis between xylan from corn cob (XC) and high-density polyethylene (HP) were investigated by thermogravimetry coupled with fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (TG-FTIR-MS) and pyrolysis gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (Py-GC/MS). Moreover...

Background and objectives Compared to wheat bran, less information on physicochemical characteristics and health-related effects is available for bran from other cereals and results are often confounded by residual endosperm. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare structure and composition of endosperm-depleted bran of wheat, rye, oa...

Surveillance studies are required to estimate the impact of pneumococcal vaccination in both children and the elderly across Europe. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends use of enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) as standard methods for immune surveillance of pneumococcal antibodies. However, as levels of antibodies to multiple serotypes are monit...

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), a kind of "green" medium, was used to extract artemisinin from the Chinese herb Artemisia annua L. to replace the traditional volatile and explosive solvents like petroleum ether, diethyl ether, etc. PEGs, with different molecular weights, show excellent ability for artemisinin extraction, and the extraction efficiency ...

Alginates are fairly abundant in nature and possess many interesting properties, including their biocompatibility and ability to absorb large amounts of water. Hence, increasing interest in their derivatization has been observed and the determination of the number of newly introduced functionalities has become a key issue. For this purpose, literat...

Hydrogels are interesting as wound dressing for burn wounds to maintain a moist environment. Especially gelatin and alginate based wound dressings show strong potential. Both polymers are modified by introducing photocrosslinkable functionalities and combined to hydrogel films (gel-MA/alg-MA). In one protocol gel-MA films are incubated in alg-MA so...
