Pseudozyma aphidis DSM 70725 was found to be a novel producer of mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs). The MELs were quantified by HPLC. Glucose as carbon source for precultivation supported growth well. By contrast, at concentrations >30 g l(-1) in preculture, subsequent MEL formation in the main culture with soybean oil as sole carbon source was reduced. The type of substrate supply considerably influenced MEL formation. High concentrations of soybean oil (80 ml l(-1)) at init favored the production process when compared to a stepwise (20 ml l(-1)) addition. Mannose or erythritol were suitable second carbon sources that enhanced the MEL yield with soybean oil as preferred primary substrate. After 10 days, a maximum yield of 75 g l(-1) was attained during shake-flask cultivation. Biofuel (rapeseed oil methyl ester) also resulted in high yields of MEL, but glucose reduced the MEL yield. Analysis by GC-MS showed that all fatty acids contained in MEL and derived from soybean oil or related methyl ester were degraded by C2-units to differing extents. The surface (water/air) and interfacial (water/hexadecane) tension of the MELs produced from different carbon sources were reduced to a minimum of 26.2 mN m(-1) and 1 mN m(-1), respectively.

The development of novel long-acting injectables for local anesthetics is necessary to effectively manage the acute postoperative pain. The aim of this study was to prepare an injectable oil-based formulation of ropivacaine (ROP) prodrug (ropivacaine stearoxil, ROP-ST) and to investigate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics after injectable administration. A novel -acyloxymethyl prodrug of ROP, i.

Soybean () is a leguminous plant with a broad range of applications, particularly in agriculture and food production, where its seed composition-especially oil and protein content-is highly valued. Improving these traits is a primary focus of soybean breeding programs. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify genetic loci linked to oil and protein content in seeds, using imputed genotype data for 180 Eurasian soybean varieties and the novel "genotypic twins" approach.

Phytochrome-interacting factors (PIFs) play a crucial role in regulating plant growth and development. However, studies on soybean PIFs are limited. Here, we identified 22 GmPIF genes from the soybean genome and classified the GmPIF proteins into 13 subfamilies based on amino acid sequence homology, secondary and tertiary structures, protein structure, and conserved motifs.

(TM) meal is a potential alternative ingredient to plant and fishmeal in aquafeeds due to its high protein content, digestibility, and low environmental impact. However, its low n-3 PUFA (EPA and DHA) content represents one of its main limitations. This study evaluated the effects of replacing fishmeal and plant-derived ingredients (plant proteins and soybean oil) with full-fat TM meal on the growth performance and lipid composition of tissues in juvenile European seabass ().

The fast detection of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) adulteration with poorer quality and lower price vegetable oils is important for the protection of consumers and the market of olive oil from fraudulent activities, the latter exhibiting an increasing trend worldwide during the last few years. In this work, two optical spectroscopic techniques, namely, Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) and UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, are employed and are assessed for EVOO adulteration detection, using the same set of olive oil samples. In total, 184 samples were studied, including 40 EVOOs and 144 binary mixtures with pomace, soybean, corn, and sunflower oils, at various concentrations (ranging from 10 to 90% /).
