Article Abstract

Ultrasound has been widely used as a green and efficient non-thermal processing technique to assist with enzymatic hydrolysis. Compared with traditional enzymatic hydrolysis, ultrasonic-pretreatment-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis can significantly improve the efficiency of enzymatic hydrolysis and enhance the biological activity of substrates. At present, this technology is mainly used for the extraction of bioactive substances and the degradation of biological macromolecules. This review is focused on the mechanism of enzymatic hydrolysis assisted by ultrasonic pretreatment, including the effects of ultrasonic pretreatment on the enzyme structure, substrate structure, enzymatic hydrolysis kinetics, and thermodynamics and the effects of the ultrasonic conditions on the enzymatic hydrolysis results. The development status of ultrasonic devices and the application of ultrasonic-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis in the food industry are briefly described in this study. In the future, more attention should be paid to research on ultrasound-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis devices to promote the expansion of production and improve production efficiency.

Plant biomass has emerged as a cornerstone of the global bioenergy landscape because of its abundance and cost-effectiveness. The cell wall of plant biomass is an intricate network of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. The hydrolysis of cellulose and hemicellulose by holoenzymes converts these polymers into monosaccharides and paves the way for the production of bioethanol and other bio-based products.

Effective degradation and detoxification of the highly toxic organophosphate pesticide methyl parathion (MP) are important for pollution treatment and sustainable development. Enzymatic hydrolysis of MP by organophosphate hydrolase (OPH) is an effective way. However, hydrolytic product 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) remains environmentally hazardous.

Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a surgical procedure that induces intense acute postoperative pain, but the mechanisms that amplify post-TKA pain remain incompletely understood. Endocannabinoids, such as 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), are endogenous lipids that can produce antinociceptive effects. However, hydrolysis of 2-AG by monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) generates arachidonic acid, the precursor to a host of eicosanoids that enhance pain.

Background: Understanding starch behavior under various processing conditions is important for the development of novel food products with tailored nutritional profiles. This study investigated changes to the structure and properties of native corn starch (NCS) and biomimetic starch-entrapped microspheres following thermal and enzymatic treatments.

Results: Heat-treated microspheres showed more birefringence and structural order than native starch, indicating incomplete gelatinization due to the alginate matrix.
