The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of food polysaccharides from different sources on microstructural and rheological properties, and in vitro lipolysis of oil-in-water emulsions of canola oil stabilised by whey protein isolate. The polysaccharides used were β-glucan (BG) from oat, arabinoxylan (AX) from wheat, and pectin (PTN) from apple. All polysaccharides added at 1 % w/v increased the viscosity of emulsions and promoted flocculation but with different mechanisms, BG and AX by depletion flocculation and PTN by bridging flocculation. Depletion flocculation was associated with an increase in viscosity of BG or AX-stabilised emulsions compared with BG/AX alone, whereas bridging flocculation with PTN caused a decrease in viscosity. All three polysaccharides reduced lipid digestion rate and extent, but the bridging flocculation induced by PTN had the greatest effect. This study has implications for better understanding the influence of carbohydrate polymers from cereals and fruits on lipid digestibility.

Lactoferrin protein (LF) is a natural protein with certain emulsifying ability, but is sensitive to be affected by environmental factors and has poor oxidative stability to be used as emulsifier. In this study, the emulsifying ability of LF was significantly improved after conjugation with Rosa roxburghii Tratt fruit polysaccharides (RTFP), and the emulsion stability mechanism of LF-RTFP conjugates (L-R) were elucidated through the utilization of CLSM (confocal laser scanning microscopy), interfacial tension, apparent viscosity, and protein adsorption rate. The emulsion stabilized by L-R showed the smaller particle size (17.

The influence of algal organic matter (AOM) on the settling performance of algal flocs remains poorly understood. To address this, we employed fractionation techniques based on molecular weight to isolate different AOM fractions and analyzed their effects on floc structure and settling performance. This involved comparing the concentrations, compositions, potentials, and functional groups of organic matter before and after coagulation-sedimentation.

Article Synopsis
- CI-qPCR assays provide a viable alternative to traditional cell culture methods for assessing virus viability in wastewater, specifically focusing on human pathogens.
- The study evaluated three CI-qPCR methods (Crosslinker, TruTiter, and PMAxx) on various viruses like HAdV and SARS-CoV-2, revealing differences in sensitivity and effectiveness between them.
- Findings suggest that while PMAxx struggled with detecting certain heat-inactivated viruses, both PMAxx and TruTiter successfully identified intact viruses in wastewater, showing promise for improving public health monitoring and response to emerging viral threats.
Preparation of a lanthanum-modified flocculant and its removal performance towards phosphorus and fluoride in yellow phosphorus wastewater.

Polysilicate-ferric-calcium-lanthanum (PSFCL) was synthesized through a co-polymerization method in order to treat the yellow phosphorus wastewater. Its morphology, composition and functional group were analyzed by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopic (SEM) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. The optimization of the flocculant was also investigated, including La/Si molar ratio, pH, agitation time, dosage and sedimentation time.

In order to solve the shortcomings of a single flocculant, the inorganic-organic hybrid flocculant SiO-CTS-DMDACC was successfully prepared by grafting copolymerization of chitosan (CTS), dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride (DMDACC), and silicon dioxide (SiO). The performance of SiO-CTS-DMDACC in treating papermaking wastewater was investigated, and the mechanism of the flocculation process was analyzed. The results showed that the crystallinity of chitosan was reduced due to the introduction of DMDACC and SiO.
