Sepsis is the body's response to an infection. Existing diagnostic testing equipment not available in primary care settings and requires long waiting times. Lateral flow devices (LFDs) could be employed point-of-care (POC) for sepsis detection; however, they currently lack required sensitivity. Herein, LFDs are constructed using 150-310 nm sized selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) compared commercial 40 gold (AuNPs) detection of biomarker interleukin-6 (IL-6). Both 310 150 SeNPs reported a lower...
Several studies have been focused on the effect of milk protein genetic variants physicochemical properties and functionality in recent years. β-casein, an important related to processibility, has reported 2 main A1 A2, for which cows may be homozygous or heterozygous. In this study, several with β-casein A1A1, A1A2, A2A2 from 3 collection occasions were analyzed. Higher manganese content lower pH found associated A1A1 variant compared other genotypes. Better rennet acid coagulation A1A2...
Milk characteristics and suitability for production of dairy products like cheese may be influenced by protein polymorphism; the possible influence β-casein (β-CN) polymorphism on manufacturing was examined using milk with three β-CN genotypes, A1A1, A1A2 A2A2. The composition rennet coagulation properties raw standardised milk, yield their were examined, meltability, texture proteolysis analysed at different ripening times. variant A2A2 found to have poorer following standardisation...
Rennet-induced coagulation of bovine milk is a complex mechanism in which chymosin specifically hydrolyzes κ-casein, the protein responsible for stability casein micelle. In equine milk, this still unclear, and targets are unknown. To reveal proteins involved, rennetability by calf was examined using gel-free gel-based proteomic analysis compared to milk. RP-HPLC milks showed release several peptides following incubation. The hydrolyses were different, major produced from identified mass...
The objective of this study was to the effects heating, addition calcium-chelating agents, sonication, and freezing on creaming bovine milk. Both accelerated centrifugal gravitational methods were used examine profile milk at 20 °C; also examined 5 °C. rate slightly decreased following heating 70, 75, 80, or 85 °C for 10 min, but change not significant (p > 0.05). Adding trisodium citrate enhanced rate. flocculation fat globules occurred in cream region after 24-h creaming, especially...
The creaming properties of human milk have not been widely studied to date, and a mechanism for this phenomenon is known. Here, the natural milk, as affected by temperature pre-treatments, was using dynamic light-scattering. rate increased with in range 5 °C–40 °C. Freezing at −20 °C thawing room had little influence on creaming. Compared bovine showed faster 40 °C, but slower suggesting lack cold agglutination; mechanisms were also shown differ response heat treatment. This study expands...
