Multiplex Protein Imaging through PACIFIC: Photoactive Immunofluorescence with Iterative Cleavage.

Multiplex protein imaging technologies enable deep phenotyping and provide rich spatial information about biological samples. Existing methods have shown great success but also harbored trade-offs between various pros and cons, underscoring the persisting necessity to expand the imaging toolkits. Here we present PACIFIC: photoactive immunofluorescence with iterative cleavage, a new modality of multiplex protein imaging methods.

Amylose-Lipid Complex as a Fat Replacement in the Preparation of Low-Fat White Pan Bread.

Amylose-lipid complex (ALC) was prepared with corn starch and stearic acid and used as a shortening replacement in white pan bread preparation. ALCs were prepared using various concentrations of stearic acid to corn starch (1%, 3%, 5%, and 7%) under different temperatures (55, 65, and 75 °C) and for different durations of time (30, 60, and 120 min); then, their complexing properties were assessed using iodine reagent and X-ray diffraction. The complexing reaction at 75 °C for 60 min showed the highest complexing index of the tested conditions; the in vitro digestibility of ALC was lower than that of corn starch.
