The IgE response to inhaled dust of pancreatic powder was studied with sera from two employees of a pharmacy. IgE from both sera was directed against both porcine and bovine trypsin preparations. The major IgE-binding structures had an isoelectric point in the pH 8 to 9 range. The molecular weight of the IgE-binding structures was different for both patients. In one patient, most IgE was directed against a 28 to 30 kd structure, whereas the second patient had IgE directed against components with a molecular weight of 35 and 45 kd, respectively.

Oats are gluten-free cereals rich in dietary fiber, -glucans, phenolic acids, flavonoids, carotenoids, vitamin E, and phytosterols. They have been used in traditional medicine for centuries to treat hyperacidity, acute pancreatitis, burns, and skin inflammation. This study assessed the nutritional and phenolic profile of oat flour (OF) and ground oat husks (OHs) from white, brown, and black hulled oat genotypes, as well as the antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of their extracts.

Objectives: Gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel combination therapy (GnP) is a standard treatment for unresectable or recurrent pancreatic cancer. However, fatigue and malaise are frequent adverse effects. Recently, Kampo medicine containing ginsenoside has been reported to relieve cancer-related fatigue.

In shrimp aquaculture, enhancing health and disease resistance is crucial for sustainable production. This study investigates the pioneering effects of astaxanthin-enriched microalgal powder from Haematococcus pluvialis (HP) on Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), focusing on growth efficiency, body composition, immune and antioxidant responses, intestinal health, histopathology, gene expression, and resistance against Fusarium solani. Shrimp (initial weight 5.

Powdered samples of guava pulp and processing by-products (single fraction containing crushed seeds, peels, and residual pulp) are rich sources of polyphenols with antidiabetic, anti-obesity, cardioprotective, and anticancer potential. However, post-digestion retention of these bioactivities remains unclear. Therefore, these samples were subjected to in vitro digestion simulating oral, gastric, small intestine, and large intestine phases.
