Camel milk and D-allulose synergistically improved camel dairy flavor and alleviated insulin resistance of human HepG2 cells.

Camel milk is a dairy product widely consumed in desert and semi-arid areas, with high nutritional value and potential for auxiliary medical treatment. It has unique efficacy and a gamey taste, and exploring its functional factors and making camel milk more easily accepted by the public has become a research hotspot. This study mainly investigated the protein components in camel milk that may play a role in alleviating insulin resistance by observing the cell activity, glucose consumption, and morphological changes of the treatment group.

Microplastics and their interaction with microorganisms in Bosten Lake sediment.

Microplastics (MPs), discovered in oceans, lakes, and rivers, can infiltrate the food chain through ingestion by organisms, potentially posing health risks. Our research is the first to study the composition and distribution of MPs in Bosten Lake's sediment. In May, the average abundance of MPs was 0.

Detection of β-Lactoglobulin by a Porous Silicon Microcavity Biosensor Based on the Angle Spectrum.

In this paper, carbon quantum dot-labelled β-lactoglobulin antibodies were used for refractive index magnification, and β-lactoglobulin was detected by angle spectroscopy. In this method, the detection light is provided by a He-Ne laser whose central wavelength is the same as that of the porous silicon microcavity device, and the light source was changed to a parallel beam to illuminate the porous silicon microcavity' surface by collimating beam expansion, and the reflected light was received on the porous silicon microcavity' surface by a detector. The angle corresponding to the smallest luminous intensity before and after the onset of immune response was measured by a detector for different concentrations of β-lactoglobulin antigen and carbon quantum dot-labelled β-lactoglobulin antibodies, and the relationship between the variation in angle before and after the immune response was obtained for different concentrations of the β-lactoglobulin antigen.

Dual signal light detection of beta-lactoglobulin based on a porous silicon bragg mirror.

In this work, a new dual signal light detection method based on porous silicon Bragg mirror (PSBM) and biological labelling with quantum dots (QDs) is proposed for the detection of beta-lactoglobulin (β-lg). The first signal light is a probe light emitted by a laser with wavelength of 633 nm, which enters the PSBM and is reflected from the surface. The wavelength of the probe light is located at the edge of the PSBM band gap, where it has the lowest reflectivity.
