Volatile components of three commercial plain sufus or fermented soybean (Glycine max) curds (A-C) were extracted by a supercritical fluid extraction apparatus and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A total of 83 compounds were found, of which 68 compounds were common among the three samples. Samples A, B, and C had 76, 75, and 74 components, respectively. Alcohols (17), acids (15), and esters (16) were the major classes. The rest of the classes were miscellaneous compounds (9), aldehydes (7), alkanes (5), aromatic compounds (5), ketones (3), furans (2), S-containing compounds (2), and other N-containing compounds (2). Gas chromatography-flame ionization detection-olfactometry analyses identified 17 potent odorants with different odor descriptions such as sour, sweet, fruity, coconut-like, and meaty. Fourteen odorants were further pinpointed by omission experiments among the 17 to be critical to the odor of commercial plain sufu. Acetic acid, methional, ethyl (Z,Z)-9,12-octadecadienoate, ethyl (Z)-9-ocatadecenoate, and 3-methylbutanoic acid were some of the potent odorants found.

Currently, in the domestic practice of retreading tires using vulcanization tanks, some tanks exhibit uneven temperature distributions leading to low retreading success rates. To address that, this paper simulated the temperature and velocity fields during the heating process of vulcanization tanks for waste tire retreading. The results indicated that a higher heating power reduces the time required for the vulcanizing agent to reach the vulcanization condition, but it also increases the difference in tire temperature in the tank, with a severely uneven distribution of the temperature field.

Rapid screening of inorganic arsenic (iAs) in groundwater used for drinking by hundreds of millions of mostly rural residents worldwide is crucial for health protection. Most commercial field test kits are based on the Gutzeit reaction that uses mercury-based reagents for color development, an environmental concern that increasingly limits its utilization. This study further improves the Molybdenum Blue (MB) colorimetric method to allow for faster screening with more stable reagents.

Three endophytic strains, Phomopsis sp., Fusarium proliferatum, and Tinctoporellus epimiltinus, isolated from various plants in the rainforest of the Philippines, were investigated regarding their ability to repress growth of the pathogenic fungus Colletotrichum musae on banana fruits causing anthracnose disease. An in vitro plate-to-plate assay and an in vivo sealed box assay were conducted, using commercial versus natural potato dextrose medium (PDA).

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the incidence of radiological adjacent segment disease (R-ASD) at L3/4 between patients with L4/5 degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS) who underwent L4/5 posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and those who underwent microscopic bilateral decompression via a unilateral approach (MBDU) at L4/5. Our ultimate goal was to distinguish the course of natural lumbar degeneration from fusion-related degeneration while eliminating L4/5 decompression as a confounder.
Methods: Ninety patients with L4/5 DS who underwent L4/5 PLIF (n = 53) or MBDU (n = 37) and were followed for at least 5 years were retrospectively analyzed.

Wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV; ) and Triticum mosaic virus (TriMV; ), the type members of the genera and , respectively, in the family , are economically important wheat viruses in the Great Plains region of the USA. Co-infection of wheat by WSMV and TriMV results in disease synergism. Wheat transcriptome from singly (WSMV or TriMV) and doubly (WSMV+TriMV) infected upper uninoculated leaves were analyzed by RNA-Seq at 9, 12, and 21 days postinoculation.
