A novel analytical method was developed for the determination of free asparagine (Asn), which is a precursor of acrylamide, in grains. Asn was extracted from a sample with 5% (w/v) aqueous trichloroacetic acid solution, and the crude extract was cleaned up using a reversed-phase solid-phase cartridge. The cleaned extract was derivatized with dansyl chloride and analyzed by HPLC-UV. HPLC separation was performed by gradient elution on a ODS column using 0.01 mol/L ammonium acetate and acetonitrile mixture as the mobile phase. The calibration curve was linear in the range of 0.5-100 μg/mL. The mean recoveries from potato starch, non-glutinous rice flour and whole wheat flour ranged from 97.7 to 102.6%, the repeatability (RSDs) ranged from 0.8 to 2.0%, and the within-laboratory reproducibility (RSDwr) ranged from 1.4 to 6.2%. Limits of quantitation (LOQs) were 13 mg/kg for potato starch and 4 mg/kg for non-glutinous rice flour. The quantitative values obtained for about 15 kinds of grains using this developed method were approximately equal to those obtained with an automatic amino acid analyzer.

: GFI1-36N represents a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the zinc finger protein Growth Factor Independence 1 (GFI1), in which the amino acid serine (S) is replaced by asparagine (N). The presence of the gene variant is associated with a reduced DNA repair capacity favoring myeloid leukemogenesis and leads to an inferior prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. However, the underlying reasons for the reduced DNA repair capacity in leukemic cells are largely unknown.

Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) offers a rich nutritional profile with high protein content and abundant vitamins and minerals. Processing of faba beans for freezing requires blanching, yielding liluva (legume processing water), possibly containing leached macronutrients, with potential for upcycling.

Purslane is a plant with high nutritional content that is mainly produced in the central part of Mexico. The nutritional content of purslane depends on various factors such as climatic and soil conditions, phenology, and fertilization. This article describes the H NMR metabolomics profiling of purslane in relation to fertilization at two harvest stages: C and C (27 and 42 days after emergence).

To establish a sustainable cultured meat technology, a low-cost culture medium must be developed without expensive biological materials such as serum and coating substances. However, even adhering bovine myogenic cells to uncoated culture dishes in the serum-free medium is challenging. We found that serum-free culture medium conditioned by HepG2 and NIH/3T3 cells not only accomplished the cell adhesion on uncoated culture dishes (the serum-containing medium : the serum-free medium : the conditioned medium = 6722 ± 1500 : 2210 ± 319 : 5985 ± 1558 cells/cm), but also induced proliferation comparable to that observed in a serum-containing medium (the serum-containing medium : the serum-free medium : the conditioned medium = 10,050 ± 2814 : 2200 ± 707 : 8998 ± 3890 cells/cm).
