Protein- and lipid oxidation were investigated in whey protein based oleogels with varying water addition. Lipid oxidation was low (~30 mmol O/kg lipid hydroperoxides after 6 weeks) in gels with < 0.23% water and a high (>1,000 mmol O/kg lipid hydroperoxides after 4 weeks) in gels with > 2.4% water addition. In systems with > 2.4% water addition fluorescence (excitation 325 nm / emission 410 nm) as indicator of tyrosine oxidation and carbonyl content significantly increased and remained at low levels in oleogels with < 0.23% water addition. Primary amines as indicator for protein backbone breakage increased in early stages of oxidation in high water oleogels and decreased after 28 days. Degradation has been suggested to occur through interactions with reactive secondary lipid oxidation products and was confirmed by spiking experiments using respective compounds. The results suggest that secondary lipid oxidation markers are masked dependent on water addition in the presence of proteins.

Computationally Efficient Polarizable MD Simulations: A Simple Water Model for the Classical Drude Oscillator Polarizable Force Field.

J Phys Chem Lett

January 2025

University of Maryland Computer-Aided Drug Design Center, Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, School of Pharmacy, University of Maryland, Baltimore, Maryland 21201, United States.

An improvement in the computational efficiency of polarizable force field simulations is made through the development of a polarizable Drude water model, SWM3, in combination with the use of Lennard-Jones Particle Mesh Ewald (LJPME) for the treatment of long-range LJ interactions. The experimental bulk properties, density, heat of vaporization, dielectric constant, and self-diffusion constant of the SWM3 model are accurately replicated at ambient condition. The temperature dependence of the bulk properties is also captured except for the density.

Pesticides and plastics have brought convenience to agricultural production and daily life, but they have also led to environmental pollution through residual chemicals. Emamectin benzoate (EMB) is among the most widely used insecticides, which can cause environmental pollution and harm the health of organisms. Additionally, microplastics (MPs), a relatively new type of pollutant, not only are increasing in residual amounts within water bodies and aquatic organisms but also exacerbate pollution by adsorbing other pollutants, leading to a mixed pollution scenario.

This study explores the effect of different extraction methods and preheat treatments in obtaining protein concentrate from pumpkin seed flour. The effects on the yield and functional properties of pumpkin seed protein concentrate (PSPC) were compared alongside microwave and conventional preheating methods using alkali, salt, and enzyme-assisted alkali extraction techniques. Analytical assessments included proximate analysis, soluble protein content, water solubility index (WSI), emulsification activity (EA) and stability (ES), foaming capacity (FC) and stability (FS), and antioxidant activity (AA).

Unlabelled: The redox conditions in the littoral limnic sediments may be affected by the penetration of plant roots which provide channels for oxygen transport into the sediment while decomposition of the dead roots results in consumption of oxygen. The goal of this work was to study the impact of environmental parameters including penetration of roots of L. into the sediments on cycling of the redox-sensitive elements in Lake Kinneret.
