Single‐Screw Extrusion of Copra Meal and Distillers Dried Grains With Solubles at Varying Screw Speed and Moisture Content for Aquaculture Feed Applications

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Copra meal is a byproduct of the coconut oil extraction process and provides an inexpensive source of energy for livestock diets. Single‐screw extrusion was conducted to investigate the effects of varying proportions of copra meal and distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) and the corresponding processing ...

Phenolic‐Associated Dietary Fiber Ingredients From Agro‐Industrial Residues: Processing‐Dependent Identity and Food‐Grade Translation

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Agro‐industrial residues contain dietary fiber and phenolics, but coexistence alone does not establish a phenolic‐bound ingredient. Processing‐dependent identity is verified through fraction‐specific analysis and common‐basis mass balance. Food‐grade translation requires final‐product performance, sensory acceptance, safety, and claim‐matched ...

Advancing Pregnancy and Pediatric Science through the NIH Transporter Elucidation Network

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Human gestation is characterized by dynamic changes in maternal physiology and maturation of tissue functions before and after birth. The fetus and neonate are highly dependent upon transfer of maternal nutrients via the placenta and lactating mammary gland, which frequently involve selective membrane transporter proteins.

Functional analyses of the versicolorin B synthase gene in Aspergillus flavus

MicrobiologyOpen, 2017
Aflatoxin is a toxic, carcinogenic mycotoxin primarily produced by Aspergillus parasiticus and Aspergillus flavus. Previous studies have predicted the existence of more than 20 genes in the gene cluster involved in aflatoxin biosynthesis.

Dose and Exposure Time-Dependent Renal and Hepatic Effects of Intraperitoneally Administered Fumonisin B₁ in Rats

Toxins, 2018
Male Wistar rats were treated intraperitoneally (i.p.) with fumonisin B1 (FB1; 0, 20, 50 and 100 mg/kg dietary dose equivalent) for 5 and 10 days (n = 24⁻24 in each setting) to gain dose- and time-dependent effects on antioxidant status and ...

Ssu72 Regulates Fungal Development, Aflatoxin Biosynthesis and Pathogenicity in Aspergillus flavus

Toxins, 2020
The RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription process is coordinated by the reversible phosphorylation of its largest subunit-carboxy terminal domain (CTD). Ssu72 is identified as a CTD phosphatase with specificity for phosphorylation of Ser5 and Ser7 and
