Quinoa, known as the “golden grain” for its high nutritional value, has polysaccharides one of sources important nutrients. However, biological functions quinoa remain understudied. In this study, two crude polysaccharide extracts (Q-40 and Q-60) were obtained through sequential precipitation with 40% 60% ethanol, purities 58.29% (HPLC) 62.15% a protein content 8.27% 9.60%, respectively. Monosaccharide analysis revealed that Q-40 contained glucose (Glc), galacturonic acid (GalA), arabinose...

Dex is a drug commonly used as an immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory agent in humans animals. GCs have profound impact on melatonin expression biological rhythm. However, the effect of chronic exposure to secretion clock gene ruminants still unclear. Ten goats were randomly divided into two groups: control group was injected with saline, Dex-treated intramuscularly daily for 21 d 0.2 mg/kg Dex. The rhythm plasma disturbed group, colon levels lower compared (p < 0.05). leads...

Clanis Bilineata Tingtauica Mell Protein (CBTMP) is a naturally high-quality insect protein resource, while its poor emulsification has limited application in food industry. In order to change the present situation, this research, ultrasonic pretreatment (0 W, 200 400 600 and 800 W) method was used improve properties of CBTMP. Results indicated that ultrasound treatment especially at W could significantly particle sizes, further increase content sulfhydryl group surface hydrophobicity. The...

Summary Clanis Bilineata Tingtauica Mell Protein (CBTMP) was one of the new natural insect protein resources. However, due to its strong surface hydrophobicity and poor emulsion stability, application has greatly been limited. In this study, Pickering emulsions were prepared by CBTMP–Tannic acid (CBTMP–TA) particles soybean oil ( φ = 50%). The presence TA significantly increased zeta‐potential (from −23.5 ± 0.73 −29.23 0.58 mV) three‐phase contact angle 129.9 4.53° 87.27 3.20°) complex,...

Frozen Alaska pollock surimi (FA, A, and RA grades) was used to clarify how the heating method (ohmic water bath heating) rate affect physical properties of heat-induced gels. Textural were significantly influenced by rate. In 1-step heating, slow enhanced gel strength high-grade more effectively than that low-grade surimi. The quality gels prepared ohmic differed even if time final temperature same, probably due differences in linear non-linear patterns two methods. results formed 2-step...

The effect of fish oil supplementation on the quality frozen and unfrozen sasa-kamaboko was evaluated. Alaska pollock surimi emulsified with 0% (control), 2.5%, or 5% oil, after shaping heating, resultant samples were stored at −20 °C for 2 4 weeks. Compared to control, emulsification into found significantly (p < 0.05) improve water-holding capacity, whiteness, breaking strength before freezing storage. Microscopic observation revealed that particles well distributed even storage, there...

Quinoa, known as the &amp;quot;golden grain&amp;quot; for its high nutritional value, is a significant source of essential nutrients, including proteins, minerals, vitamins, polyphenols, phytosterols, and flavonoids. However, biological functions quinoa polysaccharides remain understudied. In this research, two crude extracts (Q-40 Q-60) were obtained extracting by 40% 60% alcohol. The purity Q-40 Q-60 was 58.29% 62.15%, with protein contents 8.27% 9.60%, respectively. Monosaccharide...

Clanis Bilineata Tingtauica Mell Protein (CBTMP) was a kind of natural full-price protein which has bright application prospect in the food industry. Since functional properties can be significantly affected by drying method, this study aims to explore effect different methods, namely freeze (FD), vacuum (VD),and hot-air (HD) on structure and CBTMP. The results showed that degree oxidation CBTMP found following order: HD &amp;gt; VD FD. Functional characteristics revealed prepared had...
