An oat protein concentrate (OC1) was isolated from oat flour through starch enzymatic hydrolysis, by subsequent defatting by ethanol and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) reaching protein concentrations of 78% and 77% by weight in dry matter, respectively. The protein characterisation and functional properties of the defatted oat protein concentrates were evaluated, compared and discussed. The solubility of defatted oat protein was minor in all ranges of measured pH (3-9), and foamability reached up to 27%. Further, an oat protein concentrate defatted by ethanol (ODE1) was extruded by a single screw extruder. The obtained extrudate was evaluated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), texture and colour analysers. The extrudate's surface was well formed, smooth, and lacking a tendency to form a fibrillar structure. Textural analysis revealed a non-unform structure (fracturability 8.8-20.9 kg, hardness 26.3-44.1 kg) of the oat protein extrudate.

Background: The relationship between oat grain composition and physical attributes as influenced by oat genotype and Canadian growing environments was investigated. Thirty Canadian oat (Avena sativa L.) genotypes, grown in three Canadian growing locations (Brandon, Manitoba; Portage la Prairie, Manitoba; and Lacombe, Alberta) over 2 consecutive years (2020-2021), were analyzed.

Winter wild oat (Avena sterilis subsp. ludoviciana (Durieu) Gillet & Magne) has been considered the most common and troublesome weed in wheat fields of Iran. The widespread and continuous use of herbicides has led to the emergence and development of resistant biotypes in A.

Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT) is a common cause of infertility among males, and the majority of cases of idiopathic OAT are thought to be attributed to genetic defects. In this study, the role of the CEP78 protein in spermatogenesis was initially investigated using Cep78 knockout (Cep78) mice. Notably, the male Cep78 mice exhibited the OAT phenotype and sterility.

Infertility affects 10-12 % of couples worldwide, 50 % of which are male. Abnormal spermatogenesis is among the main causes of male infertility. We were curious about the possible role of transmembrane channel-like protein 7 (TMC7) in spermatogenesis because of its aberrant expression in several male infertility patients.
