In-depth research into the precise evaluation of enzymatic digestion efficiency and the selection of a suitable deuterium-labelled internal standard remains a gap in the accurate determination of β-agonists in animal-derived food by isotope dilution-liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (ID-LC-MS/MS). In this study, the enzymatic digestion conditions were optimized by monitoring the presence of β-agonist conjugates in positive samples, which proved to be reliable for ensuring complete enzymatic digestion. Comparative analysis of deuterium-labelled internal standards for salbutamol (SAL), ractopamine (RAC), and clenbuterol (CLB) revealed that CLB-D and SAL-D were less effective in compensating for matrix effects due to hydrogen‑deuterium exchange during MS fragment formation. Consequently, SAL-D, RAC-D and CLB-D were chosen for the implementation of ID-LC-MS/MS. The developed method demonstrates high accuracy and precision, with the average recoveries ranging from 93.8% to 107.3% with RSD <6.1%, which can provide higher-order measurement results for β-agonists in pork.

Insights into the regulation mechanisms of dual hydrothermal treatment on the structure and digestive characteristics of A- and B-type wheat starch granules.

Hydrothermal treatment is a physical modification technology to alter starch structures for the production of resistant starch (RS). However, the underlying regulation mechanism of the multiscale structure and digestive properties of starch by dual hydrothermal synergistic treatment remains unclear. To solve this problem, A- and B-type wheat starch granules (AWS and BWS) were separated and subjected to toughening and heat-moisture synergistic treatment (THT) with various moisture content (10 %, 15 %, 20 %, 25 %).

Electronic address:

Cereal arabinoxylans (AX) are complex non-digestible polysaccharides and their molecular structural features significantly influence their degradation and metabolic behaviors within the body. This study focuses on investigating the impact of wheat AX hydrolysates produced by different glycoside hydrolases on the gut microbiota during colonic fermentation. Endo-1,4-β-xylanase (XYN) and arabinofuranosidase (ARF) were used to hydrolyze the xylan backbone and remove the arabinose side chains, respectively.

The scarcity, unstable nutritional quality and environmental cost of imported forages in arid insular regions like Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands (Spain) need exploring sustainable local alternatives. This study evaluated the nutritional quality of twelve native and endemic plant species categorized into legumes, grasses, and a mixed group, cultivated under controlled conditions. The bromatological profiles, focusing on fiber, protein, lipids, and minerals, showed significant differences among plants in key parameters of forage quality: neutral detergent fiber (NDF; 24.

Acute liver failure (ALF) is characterized by rapid hepatic dysfunction, primarily caused by drug-induced hepatotoxicity. Due to the lack of satisfactory treatment options, ALF remains a fatal clinical disease, representing a grand challenge in global health. For the drug repositioning to ALF of mesalamine, which is clinically approved for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), we propose a supramolecular prodrug nanoassembly (SPNs).
