The present study aimed to investigate the potential of ultrasonic treatment during fermentation for enhancing the quality of fortified wines with varying time and power settings. Chemical analysis and sensory evaluation were conducted to assess the impact of ultrasonic treatment on wine quality. Results showed that ultrasonic treatment could increase total anthocyanin and total phenol content, reduce anthocyanin degradation rate, and improve color stability. Moreover, ethyl carbamate content was lower in the ultrasonic group after aging compared to non-ultrasonic group. A combination of 200 W for 20 min resulted in higher sensory scores and more coordinated taste, while a combination of 400 W for 40 min produced higher levels of volatile compounds (21860.12 μg/L) leading to a richer and more elegant aroma. Therefore, ultrasound can be used as a potential technology to improve the quality of wine.

In the present study, the impact of ultrasonication treatment (US) at varying time duration (10 and 20 min) on pearl millet protein (PMP) was evaluated. The native and ultrasonicated PMP were evaluated for techno-functional properties, zeta potential, particle size, SEM, FTIR, thermal properties and dynamic rheology. The significant (p < 0.

This study aims to enhance the emulsifying properties of soybean peptide aggregates (SPA) by preparing SPA-soluble soybean polysaccharide (SSPS) composite particles at the assistance of ultrasound technique. The optimal pH for SPA and SSPS complexation was determined by measuring the charge and particle size of the composites. The effects of ultrasound power and duration on the physicochemical properties of the composite particles were assessed through measurements of particle size, zeta potential, contact angle, FTIR, and SEM.

Mitral and aortic annular calcification is an age-related degenerative process that can result in severe mitral and/or aortic stenosis and/or regurgitation. Annular calcification not only increases the surgical complexity but also increases the risk of complications. In this case report, we present the innovative use of the Sonopet ultrasonic surgical aspirator for aortic and mitral annular decalcification in a patient with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, mild aortic stenosis and moderate mitral regurgitation in the presence of mitral annular calcification (MAC) and aorto-mitral curtain calcification.

The most common cause of rotator cuff injury is supraspinatus tendon tears (STTs). High-intensity laser therapy (HILT) has recently emerged as an important conservative treatment option. This study was designed as a randomised controlled trial in patients with partial STTs to compare the effects of HILT with those of ultrasound (US) therapy.

Arabinoxylan-catechin complexes were synthesized using two eco-friendly methods: cold plasma and ultrasonic treatments. Their physicochemical, structural and functional properties were evaluated. Cold plasma and ultrasonic treatments did not significantly alter the molecular structure of arabinoxylan, although a decrease Mw was noticed.
