High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods were used to analyse a 5kDa component purified from enamel matrix derivative (EMD), the active ingredient in Emdogain, a commercial product for periodontal tissue regeneration. After initial purification by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) on a 100 cm x 5 cm column (Bio-Gel P-30 Fine, 280 nm), collected fractions were analysed by size-exclusion HPLC (SE HPLC; TSK-Gel Super SW2000, 220 nm). The fractions containing only the 5kDa component were analysed by reversed-phase high-pressure chromatography (RP HPLC; YMC-Pack ODS-A, 200 nm), revealing four peaks of the 5kDa component. From 1200 mg of EMD (of which 9% is the 5kDa component), approximately 65 mg of lyophilised 5kDa component were obtained, corresponding to a recovery of 60%. The SE HPLC method was mainly suitable for qualitative analysis, whereas the RP HPLC method was appropriate for both qualitative and quantitative analysis.

Several studies highlight the identification of some enzymes with additional abilities, especially those involved in metabolic pathways and/or host defence processes, classified as multitasking proteins. In this context, we report the characterization of melleatin (17.5-kDa), a multitasking enzyme isolated from Armillaria mellea fruiting bodies.

Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) is easily adsorbed and transformed by soil minerals and is an important redox-active component of soil and sediment. However, the effects of the molecular weight of DOM on the interface between MnO and DOM remain unclear. Herein, fulvic acid (FA) from peat was size-fractionated into four molecular weight fractions (FA, FA, FA, and FA) and then reacted with δ-MnO in this study.

Although limited progress have been made about pathogen system of and Hibiscus latent Fort Pierce virus (HLFPV), interaction between plant host and pathogen remain largely unknown, which led to deficiency of effective measures to control disease of hibiscus plants caused by HLFPV. In this study, infection of HLFPV in was firstly confirmed for the first time by traditional electron microscopy, modern reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and RNA-seq methods in China (HLFPV-Ch). Sequence properties analyzing suggested that the full-length sequences (6,465 nt) of HLFPV-Ch had a high sequence identity and a similar genomic structure with other tobamoviruses.

Red wine is a complex matrix containing macromolecules such as condensed tannins and polysaccharides. Wine macromolecular components and their interactions have been reported to impact taste properties such as astringency but the colloidal systems formed in wine are not well known. A key prerequisite to characterize these systems is the ability to work under analytical conditions as close as possible to the colloid environment, preserving the sample structure and limiting the denaturation of macromolecular complexes.

We attempted to identify the total proteome in sesame lipid droplets. Results from two-dimensional electrophoresis showed 139 protein spots in lipid droplet samples. Each spot was isolated, digested with trypsin, and applied to liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (Q-Tof Premier).
