A single pump cycling-column-switching technique has been developed for the iodate analysis in edible salt. Homemade high exchange capacity columns were adopted for the separation of iodate and chloride. Iodate could be retained and concentrated in a homemade concentrator column after eluents passing through the suppressor. With UV detection, iodate exhibited satisfactory linearity in the range of 0.1-10.0 mg/L with a correlation coefficient of 0.9996. The detection limit (LOD) was 45.53 μg/L, based on the signal-to-noise ratio of 3 (S/N=3) and a 100 μL injection volume. Relative standard deviations (RSDs) for retention time, peak area and peak height were all less than 2.1%. Recoveries of added iodate were in the range of 98.4-101.6% for the spiked samples. The quantitative determination of iodate in edible salt was accomplished by this column-switching technique, without any pretreatment and interference. The results on six samples were statistically compared with results determined by conventional titrimetric method.

December 2024

School of Biological Engineering, Huainan Normal University, Huainan, 232038, Anhui, People's Republic of China.

Functional fermentation strains were isolated and screened from traditional fairy beans in northern Anhui. Through technical identification, Bacillus subtilis SXD06 was determined to be the superior fermentation strain, while Wickerhamomyces anomalus YE006 was identified as the optimal aroma-producing yeast. Utilizing single-factor experiments and response surface optimization, a Central Composite Design fermentation and blending model was established.

Introduction: The wealth of free food-based resources available to UK consumers on healthy eating and nutrition provides very limited illustrations of ethnic foods including African-Caribbean cuisines. This inequality in available resources limits the ability of African-Caribbean communities to effectively manage their health and reduces the cultural competence of health professionals.

Objective: The aim was to co-design healthier versions of several traditional African-Caribbean recipe resources by working in partnership with academics, a community-based Third Sector organisation, and their service-users.

The Key Laboratory of Biotechnology for Medicinal and Edible Plants of Jiangsu Province, School of Life Science, Jiangsu Normal University, Xuzhou, Jiangsu, 221116, China.

Background: WRKY transcription factors are plant-specific and play essential roles in growth, development, and stress responses, including reactions to salt, drought, and cold. Despite their significance, the WRKY genes in the wild sweet potato ancestor, Ipomoea pes-caprae, remain unexplored.

Results: In this study, 65 WRKY genes were identified in the I.

There is a high incidence of neural tube defects (NTDs) in Ethiopia and folate insufficiency, a primary risk factor for NTDs, is common among Ethiopian women of reproductive age (WRA). Folic acid fortification of salt has been proposed as a strategy to control these problems. In preparation for an intervention trial to assess the nutritional effects of folic acid-fortified salt, we measured discretionary salt intakes among nonpregnant WRA using observed weighed food records, and we assessed household salt disappearance rates.
