The present study investigates the chemical properties and sensory attributes of beef sausages which have been incorporated with three tomato powder levels (0, 1.5 and 3%) and three flaxseed powder levels (0, 3 and 6%). All samples were stored at 4 °C for 42 days. The addition of tomato and flaxseed powders decreased (P < .001) L* values, pH, residual nitrite and moisture contents and increased b* value (P < .001), protein, carbohydrate, ash, fiber and total calories contents. The nitrite content decreased during the storage time. Linolenic acid increased with the addition of flaxseed powder. Generally, adding tomato and flaxseed powders up to 3% had no effect (P > .05) on the sensory evaluation parameters on cooked and fried sausages. Based on the obtained results, it is possible to produce sausages incorporated with tomato and flaxseed powders and introduce to the market as a new processed meat product.

Iron-dependent denitrification has been substantially investigated worldwide due to the advantages of low cost, high efficiency, and synchronized phosphorous removal. However, differences in nitrogen metabolism processes with different iron-based materials as electron donors have not been systematically studied. This study investigated the efficacy of nitrogen and phosphate removal using various iron-based materials as electron donors.

For a long time, grass carp culture in China has been severely affected by Grass Carp hemorrhagic disease caused by Grass Carp Reovirus (GCRV). At present, vaccines have been widely used for protecting aquatic organisms against infectious diseases, among which oral immunization with Lactobacillus casei is safe and highly effective. This vaccination route has the advantages of easy administration and noninvasive delivery.

Obesity causes fat accumulation, and sarcopenia causes loss of muscle mass and strength; together, they worsen insulin resistance and accelerate muscle decline, creating a harmful cycle. Some supplements, along with physical exercise, could be remedies for sarcopenic obesity (SO). In this review, we aim to draw a comparison between supplements studied in experimental research and those evaluated in clinical studies for SO.

Traditional Chinese medicine has a long and illustrious history, and with the development of modern science and technology, the research and application of traditional Chinese medicines have continued to progress significantly. Many traditional Chinese medicinal herbs have undergone scientific validation, reinvigorating with new life and vitality, and contributing unique strengths to the advancement of human health. Recently, the discovery that leech total protein extracted from lyophilized powder reduces blood uric acid (UA) levels by inhibiting the activity of xanthine oxidase to decrease UA synthesis and promotes UA excretion by regulating different UA transporters in the kidney and intestine has undoubtedly injected new vitality and hope into this field of research.
