ObjectiveDietary flavonoids in various green plants have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-modulating properties. While numerous studies have confirmed that flavonoid substances benefit asthma, evidence remains limited in epidemiological research and human experiments. This study aimed to explore the relationship between childhood asthma and dietary flavonoids.

This study investigates the potential of Australian Traditional foods as novel sources of natural colourants for food applications, employing untargeted metabolomics and chemometrics. Two native species were analysed: Davidson plum and native currant. The species were quantitatively assessed for colour properties using the CIELAB colour system in conjunction with Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography-Quadrupole Time of Flight Tandem Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-Q-ToF-MS/MS).

Black rice (BR) is beneficial for the health of animals and humans. Herein, we investigated the pharmacokinetics of cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G), a major anthocyanin constituent of BR, in male rats. After its intravenous administration, C3G was rapidly distributed throughout the body and disappeared from the plasma.

The precise control of browning and enhancement of Maillard reaction kinetics to improve the surface functionality and nutrient encapsulation efficiency of soy proteins remains a significant challenge. This research presents an ultrasound-assisted cyclic reaction method (1-7 cycles) to synthesize soy protein isolate/dextran (SPI/D) conjugates with enhanced grafting degree and functionality during the Maillard reaction. The technique significantly increased the grafting degree to 65.

Background: Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a rapid and powerful method for gene functional analysis in plants that pose challenges in stable transformation. Numerous VIGS systems based on Agrobacterium infiltration has been widely developed for tender tissues of various plant species, yet none is available for recalcitrant perennial woody plants with firmly lignified capsules, such as tea oil camellia. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an efficient, robust, and cost-effective VIGS system for recalcitrant tissues.
