Customizing Starch Properties: A Review of Starch Modifications and Their Applications.
Published in Polymers
Starch has been a convenient, economically important polymer with substantial applications in the food and processing industry. However, native starches present restricted applications, which hinder their industrial usage. Therefore, modification of starch is carried out to augment the positive characteristics and eliminate the limitations of the n...
A Bio-Inspired Chaos Sensor Model Based on the Perceptron Neural Network: Machine Learning Concept and Application for C...
Published in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The study presents a bio-inspired chaos sensor model based on the perceptron neural network for the estimation of entropy of spike train in neurodynamic systems. After training, the sensor on perceptron, having 50 neurons in the hidden layer and 1 neuron at the output, approximates the fuzzy entropy of a short time series with high accuracy, with a...
Characterization of rumen microbiota in lactating Holstein cows fed molasses versus corn grain at two levels of rumen-de...
Published in Frontiers in Microbiomes
We evaluated the influence of diets differing in non-fiber carbohydrates and rumen-degradable protein (RDP) levels on changes in the ruminal bacterial populations in lactating Holstein cows. In all, 12 ruminally cannulated cows were assigned to diets with high or low RDP levels. Within each RDP level, molasses was substituted for corn grain at a co...
Dry-milled flour rice ‘Seolgaeng’ harbors a mutated fructose-6-phosphate 2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase2
...
Published in Frontiers in Plant Science
‘Seolgaeng’, an opaque-endosperm rice (Oryza sativa) mutant, is used to prepare high-quality dry-milled rice flour. The mutation causing its opaque-endosperm phenotype was unknown. Map-based cloning identified a missense mutation in the gene FRUCTOSE-6-PHOSPHATE 2-KINASE/FRUCTOSE-2,6-BISPHOSPHATASE 2 (OsF2KP2) in Seolgaeng. Transfer DNA insertion a...
Liposomes for the Treatment of Brain Cancer-A Review.
Published in Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland)
Due to their biocompatibility, non-toxicity, and surface-conjugation capabilities, liposomes are effective nanocarriers that can encapsulate chemotherapeutic drugs and facilitate targeted delivery across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Additionally, strategies have been explored to synthesize liposomes that respond to internal and/or external stimul...
Transcriptomic analysis of mesocarp tissue during fruit development of the oil palm revealed specific isozymes related t...
Published in Frontiers in Plant Science
The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) produces a large amount of oil from the fruit. However, increasing the oil production in this fruit is still challenging. A recent study has shown that starch metabolism is essential for oil synthesis in fruit-producing species. Therefore, the transcriptomic analysis by RNA-seq was performed to observe gene ex...
Effect of diet on postprandial glycemic and insulin responses in healthy dogs
Published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Introduction Dog owners have gradually changed their approach, paying more attention to the nutrition and health of their animals. Various pet foods with different ingredients and nutritional characteristics are available on the market. The present study aimed to evaluate the administration of three diets, namely, two grain-free (GF1 and GF2) and o...
