An ultra melt-resistant hydrogel from food grade carbohydrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
© 2017 The Royal Society of Chemistry. We report a binary hydrogel system made from two food grade biopolymers, agar and methylcellulose (agar-MC), which does not require addition of salt for gelation to occur and has very unusual rheological and thermal

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Effect of Homogenized Callus Tissue on the Rheological and Mechanical Properties of 3D-Printed Food

open access: yesGels
The aim of the study was to develop ink enriched with a high content of lupine callus tissue (CT) suitable for 3D printing. Printable ink obtained using mashed potatoes (20 g/100 mL) and a 3% agar solution was used as the parent CT-free ink (CT0 ...

EFFICIENT in vitro PROPAGATION OF Amaranthus viridis L. USING NODE EXPLANTS

open access: yesActa Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2020
Hyperhydricity is a frequently problem in plants during in vitro culture and affected micropropagation of plants. To develop an efficient in vitro regenerated system without hyperdydricity, we demonstrated the effect of different disinfected agents ...

Effect of Gelling Agent Type on the Physical Properties of Nanoemulsion-Based Gels

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2023
Senior populations may experience nutritional deficiencies due to physiological changes that occur during aging, such as swallowing disorders, where easy-to-swallow foods are required to increase comfort during food consumption.

Normal force controlled rheology applied to agar gelation

open access: yes, 2016
A wide range of thermoreversible gels are prepared by cooling down to ambient temperature hot aqueous polymer solutions. During the sol-gel transition, such materials may experience a volume contraction which is traditionally overlooked as rheological ...

Alcohol‐induced altered glycans in human tracheal epithelial cells promote bacterial adhesion

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Alcohol induces altered glycans to promote bacteria adhesion. Heavy alcohol drinking is known to increase the risk of bacterial pneumonia. However, the link between alcohol levels and risk of infection remains underexplored. Recently, we found that alcohol induced α2‐6sialo mucin O‐glycans in human tracheobronchial epithelial cells, which mediated the ...

Electrosprayed Agar Nanocapsules as Edible Carriers of Bioactive Compounds

open access: yesFoods, 2022
Electrosprayed agar nanocapsules were developed using an acetic acid solution as solvent. The role of solution properties (viscosity, surface tension, and conductivity) in the formation of agar particles was assessed, together with the effect of both ...

Anchorage‐independent and faster growth in clonal population from UV‐irradiated NER‐deficient cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UV‐irradiated cells expressing a DDB2 mutant protein unable to interact with PCNA (DDB2PCNA‐) form clones able to grow without anchorage. Different experimental approaches reveal heterogeneity in cell cycle regulation and drug response within these clones, emphasizing the crucial role of the DDB2‐PCNA interaction in preventing cellular transformation ...
