Structured Lipids: Synthesis, Genetic Engineering, and Applications
ABSTRACT Lipids are essential to the human body, but some can be harmful. As a result, current research focuses on structured lipids (SLs), which are engineered to have specific fatty acid arrangements. These structural modifications can enhance both nutritional and physical properties.

Abstract Solid fat added to the continuous phase of water‐in‐oil (W/O) high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) was assessed for its effects on aqueous droplet size, microstructure, and rheology during storage for one month. The emulsions consisted of 76 wt% water and a continuous phase composed of up to 2.4 wt% fully hydrogenated soybean oil ...

3′-UTR engineering to improve soluble expression and fine-tuning of activity of cascade enzymes in Escherichia coli [PDF]
3'-Untranslated region (3'UTR) engineering was investigated to improve solubility of heterologous proteins (e.g., Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs)) in Escherichia coli.

AbstractNovel bio‐based and biodegradable electrospun membranes, containing bactericidal ricinoleic acid (RA) units either by copolymerization with butylene succinate (BS) units or by blending PRA and PBS homopolymers, are characterized in their chemical, thermal, mechanical and surface properties. In the blends E. coli and S.

Feedstock chemicals are commonly used as starting materials for specialty chemicals and their derivatization often involves oxidation reactions. Herein we report that nitroarenes can be used as photo‐responsive oxidants to achieve both the ozonolysis‐style oxidative cleavage and 1,2‐dihydroxylation of unsaturated fatty acids. The method requires simple
