Cloning of hemagglutinin (HA) protein of influenza A virus - Potential for sialic acid linkage discrimination [PDF]

, 2007
The initial step in infection of a cell by influenza A virus is the attachment of a virus particle to the target cell. This is accomplished by interaction of a glycoprotein, hemagglutinin (HA), found on the surface of the viral lipid membrane with cell ...

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Impact of fortifiers on donor milk nutrient composition: An experimental study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Preterm infants frequently require human milk fortification to meet their unique nutrients requirements. How commercial fortifiers change essential macronutrients and micronutrients in donor human milk has not been well‐studied. Methods Our sampling frame included milk from approved United States milk bank donors (n = 400), measured

Immunological and periodontal benefits of prebiotic polydextrose in rats with induced periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Prebiotic therapy is a promising approach for managing periodontitis due to its potential benefits in modulating the microbiome and the immune response. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the prebiotic (PREB) polydextrose (PDX) on the development of experimental periodontitis (EP) in rats.

Raman Bands of Malto‐ and Isomalto‐Oligosaccharides as Models for Starch

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
The present study measured Raman spectra of malto‐ and isomalto‐oligosaccharides with various degree of polymerization as models for starch. The data suggest that malto‐oligosaccharides with degree of polymerization ≥ 5 exhibit Raman bands similar to those of starch.
