The effects of different cooking methods on purple-fleshed sweetpotato (PFSP) metabolites were systematically explored, containing the changes of starch, soluble sugar, volatile organic compounds and non-target metabolites after steaming, boiling and baking. Compared to raw samples, the steamed samples showed the greatest changes in starch (degraded from 53.01% to 39.5%) and soluble sugar content (increased from 11.82% to 29.08%), while the baked samples showed insignificant changes in starch (51.06%). In total, 64 volatile organic compounds were identified in PFSP, with aldehydes decreasing and terpenes increasing after cooking. However, most of them were low in content and contributed weak aroma for PFSP. More importantly, 871 non-volatile metabolites were detected in PFSP, and 83.5% of which were well-preserved after cooking, while most of the changes were concentrated in phenylpropanoids, amino acids and carbohydrates. This study enriches the understanding of quality changes after PFSP cooking and helps consumers choose the right cooking method.

is a significant pathogen affecting shrimp and crab farming, particularly strains carrying genes associated with acute hepatopancreatic necrosis syndrome. However, the immune response of to infection remains unclear. To address this knowledge gap, an experiment was conducted to establish a infection model.

The solid-phase adsorption principles and fundamental mechanism of isobutyric acid, 1-octen-3-ol, and octanal (three key off-odor compounds of oyster peptides) were explored using electrospun octenyl succinylated starch-pullulan (OSS-PUL) nanofiber mat. The nanofiber mats had selective adsorption behaviors as indicated by the selective adsorption rates of isobutyric acid, 1-octen-3-ol, and octanal, which were 94.96%, 85.

Membrane alterations are among central factors predetermining cell survival during cryopreservation. In the present research, we tested some serum-/xeno-free cryoprotective compositions including dimethyl sulfoxide (MeSO) and polymers for their osmotic impact and toxicity towards testicular interstitial cells (ICs). IC survival was determined after their contact with MeSO, dextran (D40), hydroxyethyl starch (HES), polyethylene glycols (PEG1500 and PEG400), or after cryopreservation and cryoprotective agent (CPA) removal.

The mechanisms underlying three thermal processing methods, namely hot-air drying, microwave irradiation, and heat fluidization, were systematically investigated to evaluate their effects on the structural, functional, and flour-processing properties of whole-grain highland barley. Starch granules were partially damaged when treated with hot-air drying and microwave irradiation. However, these granules were predominantly aggregated or encapsulated in proteins following heat fluidization.

Lotus seeds represent a significant economic crop and are abundant in starch. To further enhance their application value, this study investigates the structural characteristics of lotus seed starch (LS) under the combined influence of pullulanase and high hydrostatic pressure (HHP). Pullulanase increased amylose content from 39.
