Decoding the effects of brining time on the sensory quality, physicochemical properties and flavor characteristics of marinated grass carp meat.

This study aimed to explore the effects of different brining times on the sensory, physicochemical properties, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of marinated grass carp (MGC). The results showed that different brining time changed the sensory quality, color and texture. The moisture content increased significantly with the extension of brining time, while the salt content, protein content, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and total volatile basic‑nitrogen (TVB-N) decreased ( 0.

Binding affinity of curcumin to bovine serum albumin enhanced by pulsed electric field pretreatment.

The present study investigated the effect of pulsed electric field (PEF) pretreatment on the interaction between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and curcumin. Fluorescence quenching results showed that proper PEF pretreatment significantly increased the binding affinity of curcumin and BSA, the binding constant increased by 6.77 times under the conditions of 15 kV/cm for 0.

The interaction between bovine serum albumin and [6]-,[8]- and [10]-gingerol: An effective strategy to improve the solubility and stability of gingerol.

In this study, the binding mechanism between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and three gingerols ([6]-, [8]- and [10]-gingerol) was evaluated to explore an effective strategy for improving solubility and stability of gingerols. The fluorescence analysis suggested gingerols could bind with BSA to form a stable BSA/gingerols complex and [10]-gingerol had the strongest binding affinity (K = 4.016 × 10 L/mol) at 298 K.
