Water activity vs. equilibrium moisture content [PDF]

open access: yesJournal on Processing and Energy in Agriculture, 2016
Water activity is an important parameter that can be used to predict the stability and safety of food with respect to the most microbiological and biochemical reactions, conditioned by its value. In other words, it describes the degree of the bound level

Effect of moisture content on some engineering properties of mahogany (Khaya senegalensis) seed and kernel

open access: yesResearch in Agricultural Engineering, 2014
Some engineering properties of mahogany seed and kernel were investigated and expressed as a function of moisture content. In the moisture ranges of 7.1-32% and 5.3-22% (d.b.), respectively, the seed and kernel length, width and thickness increased with ...

Characteristics of moisture content variation of loess under seepage and its influence on tunnel engineering

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2021
The increase of moisture content after excavation of water-rich loess tunnel has a great influence on the construction of tunnel. Many discriminant standards of engineering measures based on loess moisture content were established by predecessors, but ...

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve
