Desiccation resistance and persistence of Cronobacter species in infant formula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Cronobacter is a newly described genus which includes opportunistic pathogens formerly known as ‘Enterobacter sakazakii’. These organisms have been isolated from a wide variety of sources, including powdered infant formula (PIF).

Elucidating the Role of Surface Ligands on the Oxidative Etching of Au Bipyramids During Photothermia Using Liquid Cell Transmission Electron Microscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Gold bipyramids can act as efficient plasmonic nanoheaters, but they often reshape during laser heating. This study shows that oxygen nanobubbles drive oxidative etching and that surface ligands control stability. CTAB‐ and citrate‐coated particles blunt and lose optical performance, whereas polystyrene sulfonate preserves shape and heating by ...

Osmotic Dehydration Process Study With Complementary Banana Peel Drying

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Studies, 2020
The present study aims to perform combined osmoconvective and convective drying processes on banana peel and evaluate the influence of these processes on their physical and physical-chemical properties. A factorial planning of 22 + 3 central points was carried out to evaluate the effect of the input variables: sucrose concentration varying between 40 ...

Biocompatible but Antibacterial Mechanism of Graphene Oxide for Sustainable Antibiotics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene oxide (GO) exhibits selective antibacterial activity through specific interactions between its oxygen functional groups and bacterial membrane phospholipid POPG, causing membrane destabilization while maintaining biocompatibility. Model membrane studies and infected wound models in mice and pigs demonstrate effective bacterial suppression and ...

Osmotic and convective drying of strawberries: Effects of experimental parameters on the drying kinetics, color and rehidratation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal on Processing and Energy in Agriculture, 2018
The objective of this research was to investigate the influence of osmotic dehydration as a pre-treatment to the air drying of strawberries. Fresh, untreated strawberries were sliced and dried in a sucrose solution at a temperature of 50 oC and ...

Small Extracellular Vesicles from Neural Cells: Physiological and Pathological Roles, and Potential in Neurodegenerative Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Neural cell–derived small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are emerging as pivotal mediators in neurodegenerative diseases, exerting both pathogenic and therapeutic functions. This review synthesizes current evidence on how sEVs from distinct neural cell types regulate neurodegeneration, neuroprotection, biomarker discovery, and targeted drug delivery ...

Osmotic Dehydration Combined with Freeze-drying of Apple Cubes and Comparison with Microwave Drying and Hot Air Drying

open access: yesAdvances in Food Science and Engineering, 2018
The effects of the pre-osmotic treatment on the mass transfer kinetics of the freeze-drying (FD) and on the water activity (aw) and the quality – colour, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity – of apple cubes were studied. The fit of the moisture content was carried out using several mathematical models. The comparison among FD, microwave drying
