The effects of different pH levels and ionic strength in calcium on the stability and aeration characteristics of dairy emulsions were investigated in this study. The results revealed that the stability and aeration characteristics of the emulsion were enhanced as the pH value increased from 6.5 to 7.0 and were optimal within the pH of 6.8~7.0, while the concentration of free calcium ions (Ca) was 2.94~3.22 mM. With the pH subsequently fixed at 6.8 and 7.0, when the addition of CaCl was increased to 2.00 mM (free Ca strength > 4.11 mM), stability and aeration characteristics reduced significantly, including the flocculation of fat globules, an increase in particle size, and a decrease in the zeta potential and viscosity of the O/W emulsion, all leading to an increase in interfacial protein mass and decreased overrun and foam firmness. Overall, the results indicated that pH changes and CaCl addition significantly influenced the stability and aeration characteristics of dairy emulsions, by influencing free Ca strength, which is an important factor in determining the quality of dairy emulsions.

Background: Physiological-based cord clamping (PBCC) in preterm infants is beneficial for cardiovascular transition at birth and may optimize placental transfusion. Whether PBCC can improve clinical outcomes is unknown. The aim of the Aeration, Breathing, Clamping (ABC3) trial was to test whether PBCC results in improved intact survival in very preterm infants.

The research on the foaming of semi-solid gel (oleogel) has recently attracted the attention of food scientists owing to its functional characteristics that make it a potential alternative to saturated fat and trans-fat used in food products. The oleofoams are prepared by heating the vegetable oil with an oleogelator followed by cooling to form a semi-solid gel and then incorporating air in the semi-solid gel to form an air-in-oil system having higher stability to deformation. Oleofoams provide new opportunities for the development of novel aerated food products free of saturated and trans fatty acids to meet the growing demand of consumers for healthy foods.

Acoustic cavitation is an advanced, eco-friendly oxidation technology effective in removing organic pollutants from water. However, research on its use for degrading phenol, a common and challenging phenolic pollutant, is limited. This study explores the optimal conditions for phenol degradation using acoustic cavitation and assesses its practical application through extensive pilot tests.

To enhance the contaminant removal efficiency of the electro-Fenton (E-Fenton) process, a nitrogen and phosphorus co-doped graphite felt (NPGF) cathode was synthesized using an anodic oxidation technique. An ascorbic acid-coupled NPGF E-Fenton system was then established for the degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP). The NPGF cathode featured abundant oxygen-containing functional groups (such as -COOH and -OH), which enhanced the selectivity of oxygen reduction and facilitated the formation of HO.
