Effects of exopolysaccharides form Lactobacillus plantarum KX041 on high fat diet-induced gut microbiota and inflammatory obesity.

Lactobacillus plantarum KX041 is a probiotics obtained from early screening, which can relieve inflammation and enrich the anti-obesity intestinal flora, and produce high yield of exopolysaccharides (EPS). The extraction, structure and physicochemical properties of EPS have been completed earlier. However, whether the functional activity of L.

Dietary supplementation of probiotic Lactobacillus modulates metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease and intestinal barrier integrity in obesity-induced mice.

The impact of Lacticaseibacillus paracasei NWAFU334 and Limosilactobacillus fermentum NWAFU0035 on the amelioration of liver function, oxidative stress reduction, and lipid metabolism modulation in mice subjected to an obesity-inducing high-fat diet (HFD) model was investigated. L. paracasei NWAFU334 and L.

Functional Effects of Probiotic Lactiplantibacillus plantarum in Alleviation Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli-Associated Colitis in BALB/c Mice Model.

Multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli (MDR-E. coli) is a global health concern. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are important probiotics that have beneficial effects on health, and in recent years, their influences in preventing foodborne pathogens-induced colitis have attracted much attention.

Screening of lactic acid bacteria with the ability to reduce goaty flavor related fatty acids in goat milk.

In this study, we conducted sensory evaluation and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis on fermented goat milk samples prepared by 12 strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from goat milk to screen for strains with the ability to reduce the goaty flavor. The bacterial counts of fermented goat milk was 7.07-9.

Identification of phenolic compounds from fermented Moringa oleifera Lam. leaf supplemented with Fuzhuan brick tea and their volatile composition and anti-obesity activity.

As a nutritious plant with valuable potential, the Moringa oleifera Lam. (MOL) leaf addition on Fuzhuan brick tea (FBT) for the co-fermentation (MOL-FBT) was an industry innovation and a new route to make full use of MOL leaf. After optimization of the extraction conditions, the best conditions for the polyphenols extraction method from MOL-FBT (MFP) were 60°C for 40 min (1:80, V/W) using response surface methodology.

Imprinted covalent organic frameworks solid-phase microextraction fiber for in vivo monitoring of acidic per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in live aloe.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) can lead to risks associated with animal and human health through the transfer along food chains. It is confirmed that PFASs can be transported to each part of plants after taken up by the roots. To better elucidate the underlying mechanisms for such exposure, it is highly valuable to develop analytical capabilities for in vivo monitoring of PFASs in live plants.

Preparation of a pyridyl covalent organic framework via Heck cross-coupling for solid-phase microextraction of perfluoropolyether carboxylic acids in food.

The growing detection of emerging perfluoropolyether carboxylic acids (PFECAs) in food has raised considerable concerns about their high persistence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity. In this study, a pyridine-functionalized covalent organic framework (Py-COF) was synthesized by introducing basic pyridyl groups into Br-COF via Heck cross-coupling. According to density functional theory, PFECAs were adsorbed in the pore sites of Py-COF via O···HN interaction, which was the stable and predominant adsorption configuration.

An amine-functionalized olefin-linked covalent organic framework used for the solid-phase microextraction of legacy and emerging per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in fish.

Due to the environmental persistence and various health problems associated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), they have come under increased public scrutiny. However, the efficient extraction of PFASs from complex media remains challenging. Herein, an olefin-linked covalent organic framework (COF-CN) has been prepared via a Knoevenagel condensation reaction, followed by reduction using LiAlH to form an amine-functionalized COF (COF-NH).

Effects of dietary nanocrystalline cellulose supplementation on growth performance, carcass traits, intestinal development and lipid metabolism of meat ducks.

The influence of nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) supplementation on growth performance, carcass traits, intestinal development, and lipid metabolism was assessed in 600 one-day-old male meat ducks (Cherry Valley ducks) from 1 to 35 d of age. Diets were supplemented with 0, 200, 500, 800 and 1,500 mg/kg NCC during both the starter (1-14 d) and grower (15-35 d) phases. Each dietary treatment consisted of 8 replicate cages of 15 birds.
