Abstract: The present research sought to experiment the effect of additives such as dry gluten powder (DGP), fungal α-amylase (FAA), sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate (SSL) and their combination (GAS) on the rheological and nutritional profile of bread. The incorporation of varied percentage (0-20%) of flour (ssF) into WF(Wheat Flour) was optimized at 15%. The results showed that the incorporation of 15% ssF decreased the farinograph dough stability and extensograph resistance to extension. There was protein matrix disruption in 15% ssF dough contrary to 15% ssF + GAS dough as shown in scanning electron micrograph (SEM). However, the addition of GAS to 15% ssF produced bread with an improved quality score that competed favourably with control bread. The organoleptic evaluation revealed an overall quality score of 52.5, 40 and 49% for control, 15% ssF and 15% ssF + GAS bread respectively. Furthermore, 15% ssF + GAS revealed a higher value of ash, protein, dietary fibre, total phenol contents and IC of DPPH radical scavenging activity in comparison to control bread. Hence, the present study showed that partial replacement of WF with 15% ssF + GAS has a positive effect on the overall sensorial acceptability and nutritional value of bread.

Background: Nutritional risk assessment is an essential component of primary health care screening, especially for pregnant women. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between maternal body mass index (BMI) and maternal anthropometric measurements in black South African pregnant women, both with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional observational study design was used.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a nonspecific chronic inflammatory disease of the intestine that is mainly divided into ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Nutrients play important roles in the treatment of IBD. In this study, the effects of vegetable proteins on the regulation of IBD were explored via the amino acid scoring formula.

In order to establish an efficient microbial transformation platform based on seaweed feedstocks, experiments were performed to isolate a salt-tolerant strain capable of producing alginate lyase and 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO). Its physiological and biochemical characteristics, carbon source utilization, and product synthesis capabilities were investigated, and then the process for co-producing alginate lyase and 2,3-BDO from Laminaria japonica was optimized. Results showed that the isolated strain was identified as Vibrio alginolyticus, which was capable of utilizing multiple carbon sources to produce alginate lyase and 2,3-BDO even in the presence of 5 % NaCl.

: This study aimed to describe the outcomes of a staged procedure combining Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) and sutureless scleral fixation (SSF) of a one-piece intraocular lens (IOL) in a case series. Co-performing endothelial keratoplasty (EK) and SSF is associated with intraoperative and postoperative complications such as graft deployment difficulties, air migration, graft detachment, and IOL opacification or tilt, all of which are evaluated in this study. This is a retrospective observational case series.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterised by inflammatory cell infiltration, keratinocyte hyperproliferation and increased neovascularization. Despite extensive research, the precise mechanisms underlying psoriasis pathology and treatment strategies remain unclear because of a complex aetiology and disease progression. Hence, in this study, we aimed to identify potential therapeutic targets for psoriasis and explore their effects on disease progression.
