AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the metabolic processes involved in the fermentation of gochujang, focusing on different raw materials like white rice, brown rice, and wheat.
  • It examines how various processing steps, including fermentation, meju addition, ripening, and red pepper addition, affect the levels of specific metabolites and their physicochemical properties.
  • Findings suggest that each processing step uniquely influences metabolite profiles, with notable differences in compound levels and bioactivities among the three types of gochujang, highlighting challenges in standardizing production.

Article Abstract

The metabolic perplexes for gochujang (GCJ) fermentative bioprocess, a traditional Korean pepper paste, has largely remain equivocal for preparative conditions and raw material (RM) additives exacerbating its commercial standardization. Herein, we outlined a differential non-targeted metabolite profiling for three GCJ (white rice-WR; brown rice-BR; wheat-WT) under varying processing steps (P1 - fermentation; P2 - meju addition; P3 - ripening; and P4 - red pepper addition). We correlated the process specific metabolomes with corresponding physicochemical factors, enzymatic phenotypes, and bioactivities for GCJ-types. The P1 was characterized by a uniform increase in the levels of RM-derived lysoPCs. In contrast, P2 was observed with proportionally higher levels of meju-released isoflavones and soyasaponins in WR-GCJ, followed by BR and WT-GCJ. The P3 involved a cumulative increase in primary metabolites in all GCJ samples except lower organic acid contents in WT-GCJ. The pepper derived flavonoids and alkaloids were selectively increased while P4 in all GCJ-types.

Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a non-destructive, non-ionizing, and rapidly expanding hybrid biomedical imaging technique, yet it faces challenges in obtaining clear images due to limited data from detectors or angles. As a result, the methodology suffers from significant streak artifacts and low-quality images. The integration of deep learning (DL), specifically convolutional neural networks (CNNs), has recently demonstrated powerful performance in various fields of PAT.

With mines extending deeper and rising surface temperatures, workers are exposed to hotter environments. This study aimed to characterize heat stress and strain in the Canadian mining industry and evaluate the utility of the Heat Strain Score Index (HSSI), combined with additional self-reported adverse health outcomes. An exploratory web-based survey was conducted among workers ( = 119) in the Canadian mining industry.

Dementia clinical trials often fail to include diverse and historically minoritized groups. We sought to adapt the Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias-Palliative Care (ADRD-PC) clinical trial to improve enrollment and address the cultural needs of people with late-stage ADRD who identify as Hispanic or Latino and their family caregivers. Bilingual, bicultural research team members adapted study materials and processes using the Cultural Adaptation Process Model.
