A novel method based on CE with precolumn derivatization and direct UV detection for the determination of thiodiglycol (TDG), TDG sulfoxide, and TDG sulfone in water samples was developed. The lack of a UV chromophore of target analytes was overcome by derivatization with phthalic anhydride. The reactant concentrations, as well as the derivatization dependence on heating temperature and time, were carefully investigated. The baseline separation of three derivatives was achieved in less than 8 min by applying a simple BGE composed of a 30 mM borate buffer at pH 8.5. Several parameters affecting the separation efficiency (buffer pH and concentration, capillary temperature, and applied voltage) were evaluated. Calibration curves of all compounds showed good linear correlations (R(2) > 0.9994). The LODs of the TDG and its oxidation products were in the range of 98-154 ng/mL. The precision tests resulted in RSDs for migration times and peak areas of less than 1.2 and 3.6%, respectively. The developed method was successfully applied for the analysis of TDG and oxidation products in seawater, utilizing the carbon aerogel-based adsorbents for sample purification and concentration. Additionally, the method has the potential to be transformed into a portable CE format.

Background: Continuous fermentation offers advantages in improving production efficiency and reducing costs, making it highly competitive for industrial ethanol production. A key requirement for Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains used in this process is their tolerance to high ethanol concentrations, which enables them to adapt to continuous fermentation conditions. To explore how yeast cells respond to varying levels of ethanol stress during fermentation, a two-month continuous fermentation was conducted.

Background: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are severe complications of diabetes, posing significant health and societal challenges. Accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and elevated glucose levels are primary factors affecting diabetic wound healing. Achieving effective treatment by reducing ROS alone is challenging, as high glucose levels continuously drive ROS production.

We previously demonstrated that the inability of primary endothelial cilia to sense fluid shear stress can lead to nitric oxide (NO) deficiency and cause hypertension (HTN). Decreased biosynthesis of NO contributes to cerebral amyloid angiopathy in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients through increased deposition of amyloid beta (Aβ). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of HTN and AD are incompletely understood.

The encapsulation of curcumin in the emulsions has attracted much attention in functional food development. Herein, the fish oil-loaded silver carp scale gelatin-stabilized emulsions with vitamins were explored for the delivery of curcumin. The curcumin encapsulation had no obvious effect on the formation, storage stability, lipid oxidation, and in vitro droplet digestion behaviors of the emulsions.
