Preparation and use of N-iodoacetyltyramine in generation of 125I-labeled compounds is described. The kinetics of alkylation of N-acetylcysteine by N-iodoacetyltyramine (k2 = 3.0 M-1 s-1) and N-chloroacetyltyramine (k2 = 0.12 M-1 s-1) indicate that N-iodoacetyltyramine is more useful for labeling sulfhydryl-containing compounds to high specific activity with 125I. Conditions for preparation of carrier-free 125I-labeled N-iodoacetyl-3-monoiodotyramine in 50% yield based on starting iodide are described. The high degree of group specificity of N-iodoacetyl-3-monoiodotyramine reaction with sulfhydryl groups is demonstrated by the high reactivity toward sulfhydryl-containing bovine serum albumin and low reactivity toward N-ethylmaleimide-blocked bovine serum albumin and IgG. 125I-labeled N-iodoacetyl-3-monoiodotyramine was also used to prepare an 125I-labeled ACTH derivative that retains full biological activity, further demonstrating the selectivity toward reactions with sulfhydryl groups.

We explored the effects of sonication-assisted xylose (Xyl) grafting on the structure and functionality of Tenebrio molitor protein (MP). Different ultrasound frequencies (20, 25, 28, 20/25, 20/28, 25/28, 20/25/28 kHz) were used, and the inhibition mechanism of ultrasound-assisted Xyl grafting on the formation of lysinoalanine (LAL) was explored. The results suggested that the turbidity and browning products of MP significantly increase, with MP-Xyl-20 kHz exhibiting the highest grafting degree (43.

Patulin (PAT), a toxic fungal metabolite, can directly damage the intestinal barrier and gut homeostasis via altering microbiota composition. Although there are several attempts for the control of PAT in vitro, there are currently few studies on the improvement of intestinal damage caused by patulin using in vivo assay. In this study, a nanoparticle formulation of spherical bacterial cellulose was obtained by dynamic fermentation of Acetobacter xylinum to prepare bacterial cellulose nanoparticles (BCNs) and then modified with 3-mercaptotetraethoxysilane to produce BCN(SH), to increase PAT adsorption in vitro.

Freezing and thawing often cause significant damage to the muscle tissue of seafood products, reducing their quality and shelf life. This study investigated the combined effects of soy protein isolate (SPI) and sorbitol (So) to mitigate freezing damage in portuguese oysters. A single-factor analysis was performed to determine the optimal concentrations of SPI (1 %-9 %), So (1 %-9 %), and soaking times (30-90 min) based on the steaming loss.

An upconversion-gold nanoparticle detection system that integrates PCR amplification and fluorescence resonance energy transfer was constructed to enable swift and highly sensitive identification of Escherichia coli. The forward primer used in the PCR amplification is modified with sulfhydryl groups, enabling its connection to gold nanoparticles via Au-S bonds. The complementary strand of the forward primer, which is attached to the upconversion nanomaterials, can hybridize with the free forward primer through base complementary pairing.
