Article Abstract

The maximum intensity of flavor release increased as the weight of food introduced into the mouth (the bolus) was increased for a range of different foods. The relationship was not directly proportional (1:1) but followed a power law function. Low-fat (< or = 1 g/100 g) foods showed a different relationship than high-fat (> or = 5 g/100 g) foods, but all low-fat and all high-fat foods were broadly similar irrespective of food type or flavor molecule chemistry. For low-fat foods the intensity of flavor release increased with increasing bolus weight to a greater extent than high-fat foods. This may be associated with the capacity of fat to selectively adhere to the surfaces of the oral cavity, thereby changing the effective surface area for the release of lipophilic flavors.

Bioenergetic therapy based on tumor glucose metabolism is emerging as a promising therapeutic modality. To overcome the poor bioavailability and toxicity of arenobufagin (ArBu), a MOF-derived intelligent nanosystem, ZIAMH, was designed to facilitate energy deprivation by simultaneous interventions of glycolysis, OXPHOS and TCA cycle. Herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 was loaded with ArBu and indocyanine green, encapsulated within metal-phenolic networks for chemodynamic therapy and hyaluronic acid modification for tumor targeting.

The clownfish - sea anemone system is a great example of symbiotic mutualism where host «toxicity» does not impact its symbiont partner, although the underlying protection mechanism remains unclear. The regulation of nematocyst discharge in cnidarians involves N-acetylated sugars like sialic acid, that bind chemoreceptors on the tentacles of sea anemones, leading to the release of stings. It has been suggested that clownfish could be deprived of sialic acid on their skin surface, sparing them from being stung and facilitating mutualism with sea anemones.

The stabilities and sustained-release properties of citral are significant for foods. Herein, bacterial cellulose (BC) was innovatively reported for adsorption and sustained-release of citral via gas-phase adsorption technique, and the adsorption mechanism was disclosed. BC was prepared from tobacco stem waste extract (TSWE), and better adsorption capacity (124.

The synthesis of bioconjugates of curcumin, zingerone, and [6]-shogaol with low molecular weight chitosan (LMWC) is presented. The unconjugated forms of these compounds exhibit low water solubility, poor stability, limited bioavailability, and low target specificity, whereas the synthetic conjugates demonstrate improved physical properties. The synthesis was achieved by forming succinates & then reacting with LMWC.
