Geogenic ammonium in groundwater owing to mineralization of natural organic matter (NOM) has been reported different geologic settings, but detailed mechanisms responsible for high concentration levels are poorly understood. To this end, we chose Quaternary aquifer systems central Yangtze River basins and used carbon isotopes both dissolved inorganic together with characterization (DOM) chemistry reveal related the genesis ammonium. The results indicate that geogenic (up 33.50 mg/L as N)...
Urolithin A (UroA) is a microbial metabolite derived from ellagitannins and ellagic acid with good bioavailability. In this study, we explored the anticolitis activity of UroA clarified mechanism by 16S rDNA sequencing metabonomics. alleviated dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice, characterized decreased disease index, increased colon length, improved colonic histopathological lesions, along inhibited phosphorylation mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway....
ABSTRACT This research optimized the extraction of different protein fractions from barley grains and assessed physicochemical properties obtained. Pearling was first used to remove grain's outer layers (mainly bran germ) so that cytoplasmic proteins (albumin globulin) would be enriched in pearling flour (PF), while endosperm (hordein glutelin) pearled grain (PGF). Salt, alcohol, alkaline solutions were then extract PF PGF. The effects solvent type, pH, temperature, time on content...
High levels of geogenic ammonium in groundwater is a highly neglected nitrogen pool coastal aquatic systems. Although organic matter (OM) mineralization known to significantly influence enrichment, the detailed mechanism underlying enrichment based on dissolved (DOM) characterization aquifer systems remains unclear. In this study, we characterized optical and molecular signatures DOM coupled with hydrogeochemistry multiple isotopes (H/O/C/N) elucidate detail mechanisms anomalously high...
Naturally occurring (i.e., geogenic) ammonium in groundwater has been widely detected globally, but the major controls on its regional distribution have poorly characterized. Here, we identified dominant role of paleo-geomorphology driven by paleo-climate controlling spatial variability geogenic using random forest algorithm and revealed underlying mechanisms based borehole sediment analysis data obtained from Dongting Lake Plain central Yangtze River basins China. In paleo-channel (PC)...
Enzymes that degrade fungal cell walls and the resulting oligosaccharides are promising weapons to combat plant disease. In this study, we identified a novel endo-chitosanase, AqCoA, from Aquabacterium sp. A7-Y. The enzyme showed specific activity of 18 U/mg toward 95% deacetylated chitosan at pH 5.0 40 °C. AqCoA also sodium carboxymethylcellulose, indicating substrate promiscuity. hydrolyzed into chitooligosaccharides (CoA-COSs) with degrees polymerization (DPs) 3-5 but no CoA-COSs DPs <6,...
T-2 toxin (T-2) is one of major concern mycotoxins acknowledged as an unavoidable contaminant in human foods, animal feeds and also agriculture products. Thus, a facile sensitive method essential for accurate detection. In our work, specific electrochemical immunosensor based on gold nanoparticles/carboxylic group-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes/chitosan (AuNPs/cSWNTs/CS) composite was established. The mechanism the indirect competitive binding to given amount anti-T-2 between...
The honeybees are the most important pollinator in production of crops and fresh produce. Temperature affects survival honeybees, determines quality their development, which is great significance for beekeeping production. Yet, little was known about how does low temperature stress during development stage cause bee death any sub-lethal effect on subsequent. Early pupal sensitive to stage. In this study, early broods were exposed 20°C 12, 16, 24, 48 h, followed by incubation at 35°C until...
Establishment of low birth weight (LBW) infant gut microbiota may have lifelong implications for the health individuals. However, no longitudinal cohort studies been conducted to characterize microbial profiles LBW infants and their influencing factors. Our objective was understand how bacterial community structure normal (NBW) varies across first 3 months life assess In this observational study, composition identified with sequencing 16S rRNA gene in fecal samples 69 65 NBW controls at 0...
Hyperuricemia, a metabolic disorder related to uric acid metabolism dysregulation, has become common disease worldwide, due changes in lifestyle and dietary structure. In recent years, owing their high activity few adverse effects, food-derived active peptides used as functional foods against hyperuricemia have attracted increasing attention. This article aims focus on the challenge associated with peptide-specific preparation methods development, components identification, action...
