Magnetic polydopamine nanoparticles as stabilisers for enzyme-Pickering emulsions: Application in the interfacial catalytic reaction of olive oil.

Solid particles are essential for stabilising Pickering emulsions and improving interfacial catalytic reactions. We constructed magnetic polydopamine nanoparticles to stabilise lipase-Pickering emulsions for olive oil deacidification. The results showed that the nanoparticles had a core-shell structure with an average particle size of 605.

Using salted egg white in steamed bread: Impact on functional and structural characteristics.

Steamed bread has long been an important part of Chinese cuisine. This study investigated the effects of salted egg white (SEW) (5, 10, 15, and 20% w/w) on the quality of steamed breads. Findings revealed that SEW notably enhanced the bread's volume and texture, with a 20% inclusion significantly boosting water retention and rheological properties, albeit reducing bread's lightness.

A Novel Food Bore Protein Hydrogel with Silver Ions for Promoting Burn Wound Healing.

Hydrogels have emerged as a promising option for treating local scald wounds due to their unique physical and chemical properties. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of ovalbumin/gelatin composite hydrogels in repairing deep II-degree scald wounds using a mouse dorsal skin model. Trauma tissues collected at various time points are analyzed for total protein content, hydroxyproline content, histological features, and expression of relevant markers.
