Precision-engineering of subunit vaccine particles for prevention of infectious diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Vaccines remain the best approach for the prevention of infectious diseases. Protein subunit vaccines are safe compared to live-attenuated whole cell vaccines but often show reduced immunogenicity.

Bioinformatic prospecting and phylogenetic analysis reveals 94 undescribed circular bacteriocins and key motifs

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Circular bacteriocins are antimicrobial peptides produced by bacteria with a N and C termini ligation. They have desirable properties such as activity at low concentrations along with thermal, pH and proteolytic resistance.

Impact of cooking method on properties of beef and plant-based burgers: Appearance, texture, thermal properties, and shrinkage

open access: yesJournal of Agriculture and Food Research, 2022
Consumers are increasingly adopting plant-based diets because of environmental, health, and animal welfare concerns. Ideally, the cooking behavior of plant-based meat analogs should accurately mimic that of real meat products so consumers can easily ...

In situ Digestion of Wheat Cell-wall Polysaccharides

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2014
Cell walls of the wheat endosperm are mostly composed of arabinoxylans (AX) and mixed (1→3), (1→4)-β-glucans (BG) (Saulnier et al., 2012). Here, we present an optimized protocol to degrade enzymatically these cell-wall polysaccharides into ...
