Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesInfluence of Zein-Fucoidan Nanoparticles Loaded with Curcumin on the Maillard Reaction Between Casein and LactoseShiyang Li, Yufan Liu, Yuanda Song et al.The influence of curcumin-encapsulated Zein-Fucoidan Nanoparticles (CZFNPs) on the formation of Maillard reaction products (MRP) at the early, intermediate, and advanced stages in a casein-lactose (CN-Le) reaction system was systematically studied. As controls, the effects of Zein-Fucoidan Nanoparticles (ZFNPs) and free Curcumin (Cur) were also evaluated. The results showed that CZFNPs effectively inhibited the formation of fructosamine, Glyoxal (GO), as … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 30 Jul 2026 · 605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesFerulic Acid in Chinese Herbal Medicine: Regulating Autophagy for Oxidative Damage ReductionZhiyuan Lv, Qiaozhen Zhao, Shanbin Chen et al.Ferulic Acid (FA) is the primary functional component in herbal plants and traditional fermented foods. To comprehend the mechanism of action of ferulic acid, in terms of its regulation of autophagy, antioxidants and the inhibition of inflammatory pathways, the study was conducted. Oxidatively damaged human-derived hepatocytes were treated with FA and the processing concentration of FA is from 50-800 μm. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 1 Jun 2024 · 5,483 accessesView PDFCite

In this study, sorbitol calcium chelate was synthesized using sorbitol as the chelating agent. The effects of sorbitol calcium chelate on peanut were investigated, with the goal of promoting peanut yield and improving the utilization of calcium fertilizer. Field experiments were carried out … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 19 Apr 2021 · 7,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOptimization, Characterization and Antioxidant Activities of Selenized Polysaccharides from Hypsizygus marmoreusTing Liu, Xue Jiang, Wei Wang, Bing XuIn this study, hypsizygus marmoreus was used as raw material to extract polysaccharides by hot water extraction method. Preparation technology of Selenized Polysaccharides from Hypsizygus marmoreus (SPHM) and its antioxidant activities were investigated. Chelation rate was selected as the index, effects of initial concentration of sodium selenite (mg/mL), the mass ratio of polysaccharide to sodium selenite, chelation time and pH … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 8 Aug 2019 · 7,774 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Influence of Partial Substitution of Potassium by Sodium on the Growth Effect of SugarcaneChao Zheng, Yong-Xiang Huang, Jin Li et al.The effects of different potassium and sodium levels on the growth of Taisugar No. 22 (ROC22) were studied by potted nutrient solution-sand culture experiment in this paper. The results showed that under low potassium stress (0 mmol/L) supply, the proper application of sodium could significantly promote photosynthesis of sugarcane and dry matter accumulation, reduce root shoot ratio and promote shoot … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2018 · 11,314 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStable Nitrogen Isotopic Changes in Winter Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Induced by its Growth TemperatureZhou Feng Wang, Wei Guo Liu, Rui Juan HaoThe nitrogen dynamics of plants can be quantified using the variation in their δ15N level. This reveals details of plant physiological characteristics and the relationship between plants and their growth conditions. To better understand plant nitrogen dynamics and the effects of external temperature changes on their nitrogen isotopic composition, we investigated the δ15N characteristics in Triticum aestivum and its mother … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2017 · 8,119 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCloning and Functional Analysis of tri14 in Trichoderma brevicompactumXu-Ping Shentu, Xiao-Feng Yuan, Wei-Ping Liu et al.Trichodermin, one of the trichothecenes, is a potential antifungal antibiotic and a protein synthesis inhibitor. Trichodermin is synthesized mainly by Trichoderma brevicompactum, but the biosynthetic pathway has yet been completely elucidated. Our earlier transcriptome assay on the trichodermin synthesis in T. brevicompactum 0248 identified a unique tri14 transcript, designated Tbtri14, that was co-regulated with other tri cluster genes. However, the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2015 · 7,393 accessesView PDFCite
