Dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS) is the main component of hineka, an off-flavor generated in sake during storage. Genshu, or undiluted sake, is usually diluted with water during warimizu, the process of adjusting the alcohol content of sake. In this study, we evaluated how the inorganic element composition of sake dilution water affects the DMTS-producing potential of the sake (DMTS-pp, determined as the DMTS concentration in sake stored at 70°C for 1 week after dilution) using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Partial least squares (PLS) regression analysis was conducted with the ICP-MS data as the explanatory variable and DMTS-pp as the response variable, and the selection of inorganic elements for the construction of the PLS model was performed using variable importance in projection scores. The findings confirmed that some of the compounds containing the inorganic elements extracted from the PLS regression analysis contribute to DMTS-pp.

Copper (Cu) supplementation is essential in pig nutrition; however, its effects on performance, trace element accumulation in edible tissues, and environmental excretion require careful evaluation. In the present study a total of 24 male, castrated fattening pigs of two different hybrid mast lines (11 weeks of age) were divided according to their initial body weight (25.8 ± 3.

This study analyzed the changes in bioactive components, heavy metal elements, and sensory quality of northern japonica rice after gradient milling, and constructed a comprehensive quality evaluation model for japonica rice with different degrees of milling. The results showed that as the degree of milling (DOM) increased from 0% to 10%, the bioactive components in japonica rice decreased, with dietary fiber (3.

Multi-tissue regeneration remains a critical clinical challenge due to the lack of solutions that can replicate the hierarchical heterogeneity of such complex interfaces. While biofabrication approaches, such as extrusion-based, allow replicating robust, biomimetic, and layered designs, constructs are usually hindered by inadequate phase/layer integration, poor filler dispersion, and mismatched rheological and mechanical performances. This study introduces an ink engineering strategy as a solution for integrating natural-based nanocomposites in multi-tissue regenerative approaches.

Phosphate and phosphate invert glasses contain various elements, with a wide range of compositions. Recently, our group reported orthosilicophosphate glasses (SPGs) and the glass network structure composed of orthophosphates and orthosilicates crosslinked by cations. ZnO is an intermediate oxide that improves the chemical durability of glass.

To advance the commercial utilization of aqueous electrochemical devices for grid-scale energy storage, it is crucial to address the current limitations related to energy density and cycle stability. Indeed, the lack of high-performance cathodes is still an obstructive issue, not to mention the limited capacities related to the monotonic cation intercalation/deintercalation mechanism. Fortunately, conversion chemistries with redox reactions bring a new dimension, where materials with multiple valence states facilitate multi-electron redox reactions, offering the potential for high-energy-density storage.
