Impact of ultrasound treatment on the physicochemical and rheological properties of acid hydrolyzed sorghum starch.

The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of ultrasonication on the physicochemical properties of native and acid-hydrolyzed white sorghum starch. Sorghum starch exhibited improved freeze-thaw stability, solubility, swelling power, and paste clarity after mild sonication. Starches sonicated at 30 % amplitude for 10 and 20 min increased the peak viscosity to 249 and 240 BU, gel firmness to 140.

System network analysis of Rosmarinus officinalis transcriptome and metabolome-Key genes in biosynthesis of secondary metabolites.

Medicinal plants contain valuable compounds that have attracted worldwide interest for their use in the production of natural drugs. The presence of compounds such as rosmarinic acid, carnosic acid, and carnosol in Rosmarinus officinalis has made it a plant with unique therapeutic effects. The identification and regulation of the biosynthetic pathways and genes will enable the large-scale production of these compounds.

Preparation and characterization of active Cirish fructans-fish gelatin film: Physicochemical, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties.

This study was aimed to evaluate the film-forming ability and characterization of ultrasonically extracted Cirish fructans (CF) and CF-cold-water fish gelatin (G) composite films. The film-forming solutions were prepared at different levels (CF100-0G, CF75-G25, CF50-G50, CF25-G75, and CF0-G100) and the corresponding data were analyzed based on one-way analysis of variance. The results indicated that CF addition led to an impressive increase in composite films thickness (69.

Accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging in assessing knee cartilage changes over time in patients with osteoarthritis: A systematic review.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technique useful for the diagnosis of cartilage damage due to high sensitivity to identify subchondral bone abnormalities and full-thickness cartilage lesions. The lack of a study on knee cartilage changes over time in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) by MRI technique led us to investigate the accuracy of MRI in identifying knee cartilage changes over time in patients with OA in a systematic review. In the present systematic review, started from the beginning of 2020 in one of the University Hospitals in Iran, the databases of CINAHL, Ovid, Elsevier, Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, and Web of Science were searched using the keywords MRI, OA, Cartilage Lesion, Imaging Techniques.

Defining the Best Nasal Tip Projection among Iranian Women.

Rhinoplasty is one of the most complicated aesthetic surgeries. One important factor in nasal profile analysis before surgery is the NTP (Nasal Tip Projection). There has been controversy over defining the best tip projection and due to cultural differences there is a need to find the best formulation for Iranian noses.
