The substrate selectivities of three endonucleases were studied quantitatively using capillary zone electrophoresis to find one giving N-ethyl(Et)-2'-deoxyguanosine-5'-monophosphate (5'-dGMP) and cyclic 1,N-propano(CPr)-5'-dGMP from DNAs damaged by acetaldehyde (AA). Six 2'-deoxyribonucleoside-5'-monophosphates to be quantified in the hydrolysis solutions of DNAs, namely, Et-5'-dGMP, CPr-5'-dGMP, and four authentic ones, were completely separated using a 100 mM borate running buffer solution having an optimized pH of 9.67. Using the present method, nuclease reactions of nuclease S1 (NS1), nuclease P1 (NP1), and nuclease Bal 31 to 2'-deoxyribonucleoside-5'-monophosphates from damaged Calf thymus (CT-) DNAs were monitored. The CT-DNAs were prepared by treatment with AA to generate Et-guanine or CPr-guanine internally. Bal 31 hydrolyzed the damaged CT-DNAs to yield Et-5'-dGMP and CPr-5'-dGMP quantitatively. The two 5'-dGMP adducts were not detected in the hydrolysis solutions using NS1 or NP1. Bal 31 can be a suitable nuclease for analyzing DNA damages caused by AA.

Many proteins are essential food components but also major allergens. Reducing protein allergenicity while preserving its nutritional value and technofunctional properties has always been the goal of the food industry. Ultrasound (US) is a green processing method for modifying proteins.

Cellulose, as the most abundant and cheap renewable resource in nature, is of great importance for its utilization. An enzymatic cellulose solution, mainly containing cellobiose and glucose, was utilized to produce astragalin instead of cellobiose in the recombinant strains. However, the crystalline structure of cellulose affects the production of cellobiose, resulting in a low astragalin yield.

The present study reveals an unexpected anomaly observed in the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the 5,6-O-isopropylidene group in 3-O-protected D-gluco- and D-allofuranose derivatives. Although the removal of the 5,6-O-isopropylidene protecting group is typically rapid and quantitative under acidic conditions, an unexpected inhibition of this reaction is observed for the two C3-epimers, 3-O-imidazole sulfonyl moiety. X-ray data show a two-faced imidazole ring orientation in the crystal, while solution state NOE data reveal a critical interaction type between the isopropylidene and the imidazole rings.

Biochemical methane potential tests using water hyacinth (WH), pretreated water hyacinth (PWH), and Hydrilla verticillata (HV) as substrates using sewage media were explored. This study replaced the freshwater required to prepare the slurry for AD of organic solid waste with domestic sewage. Cow dung was used as the inoculum.

The aquatic ecosystem is negatively impacted by organic dye contamination, which is now one of the factors leading to environmental pollution. The present investigation involved the synthesis of nanocellulose (NC) and nanocellulose modified with NiO (NC/NiO) composite using acid hydrolysis and a one-step precipitation technique for NC and NiO, respectively. Malachite green (MG) dye was catalytically removed from an aqueous solution using the two products, which were mechanically homogenized.
