A novel functionalized aptamer based 'turn-off' fluorescent biosensor for ultra-sensitive detection of small molecules like bisphenol-A in water samples.
Food allergies are a type I hypersensitivity immune responses that can be life threatening. While exposure therapy and urgent care interventions limit the damage of an allergic episode, there is currently no cure for food hypersensitivities. Many patients will experience accidental to known allergen due complexity preparation methods in modern diet. One method avoidance monitor with point (POC) biosensors detect allergens. These detectors categorized according their sensor mechanism, such as...
Hemp seeds stand as a rich source of globulins and albumins with all the essential amino acids balanced acid profile. Nevertheless, potential dry- wet-extracted hemp protein concentrates to create plant-based, fibrous High Moisture Meat Analogues (HMMAs) remains unknown. In this study, five distinct seed (55.9–76.4% protein, d.b.) produced at industrial scale using dry or wet fractionation were investigated compared for their functionality molecular properties. Furthermore, non-proteinaceous...
The most abundant oilseed cakes, soybean, rapeseed/canola, and sunflower, especially those from cold-pressing, contain meaningful amounts of antinutritional polyphenols that limit their potential as plant protein sources. objective this study was to remove polyphenols, sinapic chrologenic acid derivatives in canola respectively, using pilot-scale extrusion, without compromising the nutritional technological quality fraction. Extrusion significantly increased ratio soluble insoluble dietary...
Plant-based proteins are gaining a lot of attention for their health benefits and considered as an alternative to animal developing sustainable food systems. Against the backdrop, ensuring healthy diet supplemented with good quality protein will be massive responsibility governments across globe. Increasing yield crops has its limitations, including low acceptance genetically modified crops, land availability cultivation, need large quantities agrochemicals. It necessitates sensible use...
The dry method of coffee processing generates a significant amount husk, an agricultural waste for which currently there is lack profitable use, and their disposal constitutes major environmental problem. Pectin was extracted from husk using citric acid solution (pH 1.5) by microwave-assisted extraction method, followed ice-cold ethanol. pectin (CHP) with yield 40.2% characterized SEM, FT-IR, XRD techniques. CHP exhibited
Virgin coconut meal (VCM), a major by-product from the milk processing stream, contains 30-40% oil, which seldom gets repurposed for food applications. In this study, we investigated feasibility...
The aim of the work is to develop a gold nanoparticle-based immunodipstick for rapid detection vitamin B12 in food samples. membrane was coated with capturing reagents, that is, Bovine serum albumin–vitamin conjugate and dipped different concentrations solution containing IgY antibodies labeled nanoparticles (GNPs). intensity color development inversely proportional concentration maximum at zero concentration. visible limit determined be 1 ng ml−1. GNPs definite size were synthesized...
The present paper describes the effect of gold nanoparticles on enhancement chemiluminescence, widely known as metal enhanced chemiluminescence. Here for first time we have studied two chemiluminescence systems, alkaline phosphatase–disodium 2-chloro-5-(4-methoxyspiro{1,2-dioxetane-3,2′-(5′-chloro)tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decan}-4-yl)-1-phenylphosphate and luminol–urea hydrogen peroxide-horseradish peroxidase . In both up to 100% was observed in presence citrate capped nanoparticles. On other...
