With the antibiotic crisis intensifies, the defense and treatment of pathogen infections in safe and effective fashion has become a critical issue. Herein, we report a novel and advanced type of sterilization agent designed via the functionalization DNA nanocarriers based on dihydromyricetin and CuO-loaded nanoparticles (DNA/DMY-CuO). Firstly, a pure dihydromyricetin (DMY) isolated from Ampelopsis grossedentata is used as a bridge to the stimulate the construction of DNA cross-linking networks by hydrogen bonding.

Immunogenic, methionine copper-induced response had proven to be precedent in providing resistance against certain diseases in fish. This study allocates the fitness strategy for by introducing and incorporating the well-designed, stabilized, and biocompatible -carbamoyl-methionine copper (NCM-Cu) as a Cu potent source in diet that enhances the bioavailability and fitness. The synchronized NCM-Cu complex was characterized by directing ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Dihydromyricetin (DMY) is a kind of flavone. It has a variety of physiological effects, and its content in is as high as 35%. There are two shortcomings in the traditional batch extraction process commonly used in a laboratory: long extraction time and low extraction rate.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the enteric coating process affects growth performance, Fe bioavailability, and gene expression levels that maintain iron balance in the body. The test was divided into the control group, ferrous sulfate group, ferrous fumarate group, ferrous glycine chelate(1:1) (Fe-Gly(1:1)) group, ferrous glycine chelate(2:1) (Fe-Gly(2:1)) group, enteric-coated Fe-Gly(1:1) group, and enteric-coated Fe-Gly(2:1) group. The results showed that the growth performance of the rats in each iron supplement group was no significant difference among them.
