A new method to engineer zein films with controlled surface morphology and hydrophilicity has been developed. The resulting have studied by tapping mode atomic force microscopy (TP-AFM) a combination of water contact angle measurements X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. Our AFM results revealed that cast from acetic acid showed much smoother surfaces as compared those ethanol aqueous solutions. Furthermore, engineered through the use UV/ozone treatment, which can...
Verticillium wilt of potato is caused by the fungus pathogen dahliae. Present sRNA sequencing data revealed that miR482 was in response to V. dahliae infection, but function elusive. Here, we characterized family and its putative role resistance wilt. Members superfamily are variable sequence, all variants target a class disease-resistance proteins with nucleotide binding site (NBS) leucine-rich repeat (LRR) motifs. When plantlets were infected dahliae, expression level miR482e...
Synergistic control of the risks posed by emerging antimicrobials and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is crucial for ensuring ecological safety. Although electrogenic respiration can enhance biodegradation several reduce ARGs accumulation, association mechanisms antimicrobial (trimethoprim, TMP) with fate resistome remain unclear. Here, biotransformation pathway TMP, microbial associations, functional gene profiles (e.g., degradation, resistance, electron transfer) were analyzed. The...
The amino acid compositions, secondary structure, and self-assembly of oat protein isolate (OPI), which was purified from the high-protein Chinese oat, have been investigated by using a combination analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), tapping mode atomic force microscopy (TP-AFM). OPI, with molecular weights ranging 14.0 kDa to 66.0 kDa, rich in essential acids contained 24.7% glutamic 8.1% leucine. contents OPI are 4.5−8.7 times higher than those flour. structures...
The chlorinated nitroaromatic antibiotic chloramphenicol (CAP) is a refractory contaminant that widely present in various environments. However, few CAP-mineralizing bacteria have been documented, and complete CAP catabolism pathway has yet to be identified. In this study, the bacterial strain Sphingobium sp. CAP-1 was isolated from an activated sludge sample shown capable of aerobically subsisting on as sole carbon, nitrogen, energy source while simultaneously efficiently degrading CAP....
Zein protein is a major coproduct of biofuel from corn. To reduce the brittleness zein films, new type zein-based biomaterial, was synthesized by chemical modification with lauryl chloride through an acylation reaction. The final products were confirmed 1H NMR, FT-IR analysis, and SDS−PAGE. Thermal analysis detected no microphase separation in polymer matrix. As content moiety increased, glass transition temperatures modified decreased as large 25.8 °C due to plasticization effect moiety. In...
Sustainable nitrogen cycle is an essential biogeochemical process that ensures ecosystem safety and byproduct greenhouse gas nitrous oxide reduction. Antimicrobials are always co-occurring with anthropogenic reactive sources. However, their impacts on the ecological of microbial remain poorly understood. Here, a denitrifying bacterial strain Paracoccus denitrificans PD1222 was exposed to widespread broad-spectrum antimicrobial triclocarban (TCC) at environmental concentrations. The...
Pure zein film is intrinsically rigid and brittle lacks necessary mechanical properties for industrial processing. In addition, pure sensitive to high relative humidity, which limits its application in food packaging. To improve these properties, tributyl citrate (TBC) was incorporated into the mass ratios from 10% 50%. A significant decrease Young's modulus observed, 409.86 MPa films 136.29 with 50% TBC. Among all films, those containing TBC are most flexible toughest. Both DSC microscopy...
