Preparation and characterization of vitamin E/calcium/soy protein isolate nanoparticles for soybean milk beverage fortification.

Soybean milk is a rich plant-based source of protein, and phenolic compounds. This study compared the nutritional value of soybean milk, flour, soy protein isolate (SPI) and evaluated the impact of prepared vitamin E/calcium salt/soy protein isolate nanoparticles (ECSPI-NPs) on fortification of developed soybean milk formulations. Results indicated that soybean flour protein content was 40.

Induction of Oxidative Stress in Sirtuin Gene-Disrupted Ashbya gossypii Mutants Overproducing Riboflavin.

AgHST1 and AgHST3 genes encode sirtuins that are NAD-dependent protein deacetylases. According to previous reports, their disruption leads to the overproduction of riboflavin in Ashbya gossypii. In this study, we investigated the potential causes of riboflavin overproduction in the AgHST1Δ and AgHST3Δ mutant strains of A.
