The storage of pine nut (Pinus koraiensis) peptide (PNP) powder involves hygroscopic phenomena. To investigate the adsorption and self-equilibrium rules between these peptides and the environmental moisture molecules, several studies such as low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR), dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) and adsorption-desorption models were done. The results showed that the outward moisture migration occurred during storage as 7.80% and 16.68% moisture were respectively constrained by the original sample and 90 days after lyophilization, by chemical bonding. Additionally, 1.79% moisture was lost in PNP powder at day 90. The optimized adsorption model for PNP powder was changed from Henderson's to Oswin's model during the 90 days' storage whereas the optimized desorption model was changed from Halsey's to GAB's model. The PNP powder at day 90 presented smaller particles with an average diameter and height of 15.645 nm and 50 nm, respectively, and it contained more molecular moisture which cannot be removed. The free thiol of the PNP powder at day 0 and day 90 was 1.75 ± 0.16 μM SH/g and 1.95 ± 0.16 μM SH/g, respectively, and the total sulfhydryl was 101.46 ± 1.06 μM SH/g and 118.44 ± 1.27 μM SH/g. The registered increased sulfhydryl content contributed to the generation of off-flavor.

Objective: Pine needles are rich in many nutrients and exhibit antibacterial and antioxidant biological activities; however, the effects of different production methods of pine needle additives on the growth performance and intestinal flora of broiler chickens are not known.
Methods: Normal diets were supplemented with pine needle fermentation juice (PNF), pine needle soaking juice (PNS), or pine needle powder (PNP), and the associated effects on growth performance, relative organ weights, intestinal development, intestinal histological morphology, intestinal flora, meat quality, and serum indicators in broiler chickens were observed.
Results: The results showed that PNF, PNS, and PNP all significantly improved feed utilisation and promoted the growth and development of broilers.

β--Acetylhexosaminidases have attracted much attention in the enzymatic synthesis of lacto--triose II (LNT2) as a backbone precursor of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). In this study, a novel glycoside hydrolase (GH) 20 family β--acetylhexosaminidase, FlaNag2353, from was biochemically characterized and applied to synthesize LNT2. FlaNag2353 displayed optimal activity to -nitrophenyl -acetyl-β-d-glucosaminide (NP-GlcNAc) at 40 °C and pH 8.

Magnetite nanoparticles (FeO NPs) are among the most effective Fenton-Like heterogeneous catalysts for degrading environmental contaminants. However, FeO NPs aggregate easily and have poor dispersion stability because of their magnetic properties, which seriously decrease their catalytic efficiency. In this study, a novel environmentally friendly method for synthesising FeO@CA was proposed.

Three new triazine compounds [Co(HTDPAT)(HO)]·6HO (), [Co(TCPT)(μ-HO)]·OH (), and [Ni(TCPT)]·3OH () were designed and synthesized via the reaction of the symmetrical triazine ligand connected by C-N-C and C-O-C bonds with triazine poly(carboxylic acid)s ligands as the side arms: HTDPAT (HTDPAT = 2,4,6-tris(3,5-dicarboxylphenylamino)-1,3,5-triazine) and HTCPT (HTCPT = 2,4,6-tris(4-carboxyphenoxy)-1,3,5-triazine) as well as the corresponding metal salts under the solvothermal condition. Three triazine polycarboxylate frameworks were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, and solid fluorescent spectra in detail. The structural analysis results showed that the three-dimensional porous cage framework of compound was constructed by three different polyhedral cages connected with [Co(COO)(HO)] building blocks.
