Article Synopsis
- This study examined how applying a pulsed electric field (PEF) affects the modification of pea protein isolate (PPI) using (-)-Epigallocatechin-Gallate (EGCG).
- The PEF treatment led to a significant increase in the flexibility of PPI, resulting in a decrease in α-helix structure and an increase in random coil formation.
- Additionally, the binding capacity of PEF-treated PPI with EGCG improved drastically, revealing more binding sites and enhancing the protein’s antioxidant activity, which is important for its use in the food industry.
Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a grave condition with high morbidity and mortality. We previously confirmed that intestinal I/R induces intestinal flora disorders and changes in metabolites, but the role of different metabolites in intestinal I/R injury is currently unclear. Based on targeted metabolic sequencing, pravastatin (PA) was determined to be a metabolite of the gut microbiota.
