Recombinant Fibrinogen‐Gamma‐Chain as a Crosslinker of Thiol‐ene Hydrogels
Fibrinogen gamma chain (FGG) was recombinantly expressed in E. coli to generate a recombinant protein containing free thiol groups from cysteine. The expressed protein was used to crosslink norbornene functionalized gelatin providing a proof‐of‐principle of this novel crosslinker type and the formed hydrogels were characterized for their stiffness ...

The Effect of Lactic Acid in Association With Steam in Reducing Microorganisms in Soft Wheat
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Within the food industry, steam is an effective method of microbial reduction for a variety of products. Previous studies have shown that tempering soft wheat with organic acids, as well as steam application, can potentially reduce wheat's microbial load with minor changes in the functional properties of the flour ...

Defensins are a large and ancient family of host–defence peptides present across vertebrates, invertebrates, and plants, where they play a crucial role in innate immunity. Among them, big defensins represent a structurally distinctive subfamily characterized by a hydrophobic N‐terminal domain and a cysteine‐rich C‐terminal β‐defensin‐like domain. Here,
