This study investigated the suitability of microsphere formulations for extended protein delivery and complete protein release. These microspheres were prepared by a multi-emulsion method and prepared using a mixture of poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA), RG 502H (lactide:glycolide=50:50, M(W) 9300) and sucrose acetate isobutyrate (SAIB). SAIB embedded into the microspheres and mixed with PLGA, improved the efficiency of enzyme encapsulation. The in vitro release rate of lysozyme (Lys) from the microspheres was reduced due to the high viscosity of the added SAIB and less degradation of PLGA by SAIB. These properties enabled prolonged release of Lys for up to 2 months, characterized by a minimal initial burst of Lys and nearly zero-order protein release kinetics result from co-administration of sorbitan monooleate 80. When it is considered that degradation products of SAIB are inactive for labile proteins, SAIB may be regarded as a promising candidate for long-acting protein delivery.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of and on the chemical composition, fermentation characteristics, bacterial communities, and predicted metabolic pathways of whole-plant triticale silage (). Fresh triticale harvested at the milk stage was ensiled in sterile distilled water (CON), (ST), (LP), and a combination of and (LS) for 3, 7, 15, and 30 days. During ensiling, the pH and water-soluble carbohydrate (WSC) content in the inoculated groups was significantly lower than those in the CON group ( < 0.

This study investigated the effects of rumen-degradable starch (RDS) on lactation performance, gastrointestinal fermentation, and plasma metabolomics in dairy cows. Six mid-lactation cows, fitted with rumen, duodenum, and ileum cannulas, were used in a duplicated 3 × 3 Latin square design with 28-day periods. The cows were fed a low RDS (LRDS; 62.

The addition of acetic acid to cultures is usually used to inhibit the growth of heterotrophic bacteria; however, we found that acetic acid also promotes the growth of CICC41233, as well as the synthesis of pigments (MPs). Compared with no acetic acid or HCl addition, the diameter of CICC41233 colonies increased significantly under acetic acid conditions. On the sixth day of fermentation, the yield of total pigments in increased significantly by 9.

Previous research on cadmium (Cd) focused on toxicity, neglecting hormesis and its mechanisms. In this study, pakchoi seedlings exposed to varying soil Cd concentrations (CK, 5, 10, 20, 40 mg/kg) showed an inverted U-shaped growth trend (hormesis characteristics): As Cd concentration increases, biomass exhibited hormesis character (Cd5) and then disappear (Cd40). ROS levels rose in both Cd treatments, with Cd5 being intermediate between CK and Cd40.
