The impact of extrusion conditions on the physicochemical and structural characteristics of okara, as well as the effect of okara on dough properties, were investigated. The okara was modified by high temperature and high humidity extrusion, which significantly increased the soluble dietary fiber (SDF) content (from 5.06% to 5.45%) and significantly decreased the insoluble dietary fiber (IDF) content (from 67.16% to 66.02%). High temperature and shear force make okara protein denaturation and okara structure loose, which increases the hydration characteristics of okara. Extruded okara was added to wheat dough, where ≤20% addition could promote the formation of the mixed dough and improved the hardness, elasticity and microstructure of the mixed dough by promoting glutenin-SDF interaction. This study demonstrated that extrusion-modified okara have the potential to enhance dough quality, which provides a theoretical basis for the development of high-fiber pasta products and the effective utilization of okara resources.

Introduction: Fistula-in-ano is a relatively common benign disease of the anorectal region, which may pose considerable complications in terms of surgery, as this disease has the propensity to recur and may be accompanied by postoperative wound healing. Surgical therapy can be considered the key in the management, and surgery involves fistulectomy or fistulotomy as a part of surgical treatment. Nevertheless, due to the fear of slow healing of the wound and acquiring infection because of common methods, some other methods have been explored, and some have been suggested to be defined as the process of marsupialization, which could allow decreasing the size of the open wound and stimulate its recovery quicker.

Drought is a significant abiotic stress that negatively affects crop production. The present study aimed to assess the synergistic effects of PGPR and naringenin on enhancing drought stress tolerance in soybean. Several bacterial strains were isolated from the rhizospheric soil of Artemisia located at Pohang Beach.

Brain tumors have a big effect on a person's health by letting abnormal cells grow unchecked in the brain. This means that early and correct diagnosis is very important for effective treatment. Many of the current diagnostic methods are time-consuming, rely primarily on hand interpretation, and frequently yield unsatisfactory results.
