Article Abstract
Jacks. ex Andrews, is cultivated for its aromatic pods, obtaining the primary source of vanillin, a molecule valued for its flavor and bioactivity. Mexico ranks among the top five global producers, and Papantla, Veracruz, contributes 70 % of national production. Developing vanilla's characteristic aroma involves a curing process composed of killing, sweating, drying, and conditioning, which enzymatic reactions and microbial activity play essential roles. This study assessed the impact of four killing treatments: microwave, hot water immersion, sonication, and freezing on the phenolic composition and bacterial communities in vanilla curing through metabolomic and 16S sequencing approaches. Freezing treatment resulted in the most substantial changes in phenolic profiles, including higher vanillin concentrations. was the dominant bacterial genus, with hot water immersion and sonication showing the greatest α-diversity. These findings underscore the value of omic sciences in refining curing processes, enabling producers to achieve higher-quality vanilla through more efficient and technical methods.

Flammulina velutipes is a major edible fungus with abundant yield and mature industrial production technology. Its main functional component, Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide, has huge development and utilization value. In light of the current uncertainty regarding the mechanisms by which Flammulina velutipes polysaccharides prevent colonic cell pyroptosis, the mechanisms of ultrasound-extracted Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide (FVPU2) in inhibiting colonic cell pyroptosis in mice were investigated, and compared with Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide extracted via hot water extraction (FVPH2).

At present, flexible sensors are a hot spot in research and experimental development, but the research on flexible sensors that can be used for human motion monitoring still needs to be deepened. In this work, the green material cellulose acetate (CA) was used as the matrix material, the film was made by electrospinning, crushed by a cell grinder and sodium alginate (SA) was added to promote the uniform dispersion of nanofibers in water, and then methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS) and MXene nanosheet dispersion were added to make it hydrophobic and good conductivity, and the aerogel precursor solution was prepared, and then the CA/SA/MTMS/MXene aerogel with directional holes was prepared by directional freeze-drying. As a flexible sensor material, it can be used for human wear, monitoring the electrical signals generated by the movement of human joints and other parts, and can still maintain a current of about 0.

Conventional drying methods, such as hot air-reciprocal tray (HART) and microwave-hot air with a reciprocal tray (MHART), often suffer from low energy efficiency and product degradation at high temperatures or microwave power. This study introduced a step-down microwave-hot air with a reciprocal tray system (SMHART) to enhance drying performance using a programmable MHART setup. SMHART significantly reduced drying time and energy consumption (as low as 332.

Background And Objectives: Water is essential for proper physiological function. As temperatures increase, populations may struggle to meet water needs despite adaptations or acclimation; chronic dehydration can cause kidney damage. We evaluate how daily water requirements are associated with ambient temperature (ambT), wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT), urine specific gravity (USG; marker of hydration status), and albumin:creatinine ratio (ACR; kidney function biomarker) among Daasanach pastoralists living in a hot, dry northern Kenyan climate.

Vegetable side streams are resulting non-edible by-products from vegetable processing. These side streams are a rich source of bioactive compounds and macromolecules. Despite their potential for high-value applications, these materials are frequently used in low-value applications or discarded, contributing to resource depletion and environmental concerns.
