Introduction: Frozen pork can reduce the quality of the meat and alter the digestibility and bioavailability of meat proteins in the human body. In this study, we investigated the changes in the basic composition during frozen storage and their effects on the structural properties of digestion products after protein digestion.
Methods: The impacts of frozen storage at different temperatures (-8, -18, -25, and -40°C) and for different times (1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months) on the basic components and digestive characteristics of pork were evaluated.

Two plasticizers with distinct properties are carefully studied in this research for their suitability in creating biocomposite edible film products. The study uncovers films' physical, tensile, and biodegradability attributes, using snakehead gelatin and ĸ-carrageenan in different concentrations, with sorbitol or glycerol as plasticizers. The biomaterials of the edible film consist of snakehead gelatin () 2% (/); ĸ-carrageenan at concentrations of 1%, 1.

Triclosan (TCS) is used as an antibacterial agent in various products. One of the major issues associated with TCS is its limited solubility in aqueous media, which can reduce its effectiveness against bacteria. In this study, we enhanced the aqueous solubility and antibacterial activity of TCS by using a re-dispersible emulsion powder stabilized with gold nanoparticles (GNPs).

By virtue of their ability to bind different growth factors, morphogens and extracellular matrix proteins, heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) play a determinant role in cancer cell differentiation and migration. Despite a strong conceptual basis and promising preclinical results, clinical trials have failed to demonstrate any significant advantage of administering heparin to oncology patients. We exploited our anti-heparan sulfate branched peptide NT4 to test the opposite approach, namely, targeting HSPGs to interfere with their functions, instead of using heparin as a soluble competitor in human cell lines from pancreas adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, rhabdomyosarcoma and two different breast cancers.

Sesame protein isolate (SPI) is a highly nutritious plant protein distinguished by its essential amino acid profile. This study investigates the influence of pH on SPI's physicochemical, structural, and techno-functional properties, highlighting its potential as a sustainable protein source for various food applications. Our findings revealed that SPI had a protein content of 90.
