High-pressure processing (HPP) negatively impacts fresh meat color. The objective of the study was to use a sarcoplasmic (meat extract) model to better understand the effects of HPP on meat color. Sarcoplasm was extracted at pHs of 5.6, 6.0, or 6.4 and fractioned based on centrifugation speed at 0, 3500 g, and 15,000 g for 5 min. The extracts were processed using a commercial HPP unit at 300 MPa, 450 MPa, and 600 MPa, along with a non-pressurized control. Myoglobin concentration decreased (P < 0.05) with increased HPP levels. Sarcoplasm treated with 300 MPa had the greatest oxymyoglobin content (P < 0.05) compared with the non-pressurized control and other HPP levels. Deoxymyoglobin and metmyoglobin content were greater at 600 MPa compared with non-pressurized control and other HPP levels. In summary, higher pH and lower pressure can improve redness of sarcoplasm.

The hydrolysis of biomass in fermentative processes often faces the difficulty of generating inhibitory products. Its reduction or removal is essential to enable the use of agro-industrial waste, such as cashew apple bagasse. Therefore, this study aimed to find an optimized condition for the hydrolysis of cashew apple bagasse by subcritical water and to introduce an in-line pre-purification process.

In this study, the effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP)-mediated alterations in matrix composition on the bioaccessibility of carotenoids in satsuma mandarin juice were assessed. Results showed that the total carotenoid content increased significantly under HHP treatment (300-600 MPa), and the total carotenoids bioaccessibility was optimal at 600 MPa/1 min. The bioaccessibility of carotenoids in satsuma mandarin juice was positively correlated with the contents of titratable acids, total phenols and total sugars, all of which increased significantly after HHP.

Nifurtimox (NFX) is a chiral drug used for the treatment of Chagas Disease. Little attention has been paid to the enantioselective properties of chiral drugs used for neglected tropical diseases, highlighting the need for further studies in this area. In this work, the enantioselective properties of NFX were carefully investigated by HPLC using different chiral stationary phases (CSPs) and chromatographic modes.

Patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) may experience neurobehavioral and cognitive concerns, including psychiatric symptoms, due to the absence of full-length dystrophin (Dp427), frequently accompanied by deficiencies in shorter isoforms. The lack of dystrophin affects neurophysiological processes from the uterine phase, impacting neural circuitry in brain regions such as the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum. This leads to reduced inhibitory GABAergic transmission and altered hippocampal glutamatergic signaling.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) exhibits excellent lubrication capacity rooted in its layered structure, but it suffers significant structural and functional deterioration due to oxidation in ambient environments, limiting its applications. Concerted efforts are focused on enhancing the antioxidation ability of MoS, but challenges remain. This work conceptualizes and demonstrates a contrarian design of MoS-based film via metal incorporation and oxidation based on consideration of key fundamental principles of thermodynamics, chemistry, and physical mechanics.
