      Abstract:The main phenomenon on rapid impregnation treatment is the hydrodynamic mechanism, mass transfer mechanism and water diffusion. The control of impregnation solution pressure and its duration is the main methods for target ion and molecular rapid penetrate into agricultural products and food materials. The knowledge of rapid impregnation based on the change of environmental pressures is important in developing of functional foods and pickled foods. Effectiveness of impregnation of food materials is widely affected by several factors such as concentration of the external liquid, operation variables and food microstructure including porosity, pore size, various kinds of shape and gas or liquid occupying the pores. Due to its unique characteristics, Vacuum impregnation was considered a technology with high potential industrial applications. The target of this rapid impregnation method is to increase the mass transfer of solid-liquid operation such as osmotic dehydration, acidification, brining of fish, beef and chicken products. In order to provide references for domestic research in this field, the key technical factors on rapid impregnation(compression ratio, brine concentration, the length of environmental pressure periods, sample microstructure) widely used at present in agro-products and food materials were introduced, and operational characteristics of each factor were also summarized. When external pressure is change, sample deformations coupled with impregnation. Greatly deformed matrices may relax the more mechanical energy stored in their elastic structural elements. The greater the elastic character, the higher the volume recovery and the more impregnation effectiveness. Saturated brines were recommended in impregnation treatments for the acceleration of mass transfer through the sample. Nevertheless, the solution concentration profile at a determined overall solute uptake will be different depending on the brine concentration used. The length of the different pressure period in impregnation process is that necessary to achieve mechanical equilibrium inside the product. Then, the reestablishment of atmospheric pressure will lead to the substitution of the gas-liquid volume lost for the external liquid phase if no pore compression occurs. The length of this period could affect the impregnation level if no mechanical equilibrium is reach when restoring atmospheric pressure. With high sample porosity, solute was conducive to penetrate into the tissue. Therefore, one consequence of the important role of food microstructure in impregnation operations is a greater variability in the final solute content of the product. The research progress of each application in rapid impregnation for agro-products and foods were reviewed including brining, mineral fortified, probiotic enriched, anti-browning, osmotic dehydration, edible film coating. In addition, from an engineering point of view two advantages could be considered: 1. rapid processing; 2. low energy consumption. But problems existing in present research and development trends were also proposed.

      Abstract:To give support to release the nitrogen catabolite repression(NCR), by rebuiling the ubiquitination system, the ubiquitination of NCR related permeases and regulators was detected. A fast ubiquitination detection procedure established before was modified and developed, which enhanced the fluorescence of the positive control and could quantify the fluorescence signal. The fluorescence quantification made this procedure more reliable. It was demonstrated that 5 of the NCR related proteins were ubiquitinated, 4 were not ubiquitinated and 1 was not determined. We not only established a reliable ubiquitination detection procedure, but also gave a idea to release NCR through the ubiquitination modification procedure.

      Abstract:Phosphatidylinositol(PI) signaling system was critical in many plant developmental processes including seed development, growth and reproduction, aging and cell responses to environmental stress. Based on the construction of the transcriptome library and the expression profile of Camellia oleifera seeds both in the fruit expanding period and at the peak stage of lipid biosynthesis and oil synthesis, the key enzyme genes related to PI signaling system has been analyzed in detail. The research suggested that there are 212 non-redundant gene unigenes related to PI signaling sistem of Camellia oleifera seeds which mainly encode 12 kind of key enzyme proteins such as PIK, PIPK, PIS, DGK, PLC et al. The results of expression profile analysis showed that these genes have different expression patterns in different developmental stage of Camellia oleifera seeds. The findings will be in favor of the research of interaction between IP pathway and other signaling pathways and provide a scientific basis for Camellia oleifera breeding of good quality.

      Abstract:The differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes were stimulated with/without tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), then treated with berberine, ginsenosides Rb1, and both berberine and ginsenosides Rb1. The expression of TNF-α, interleukin-6(IL-6), resistin, adiponectin, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1) were detected with real time quantitative PCR. The phosphorylation of IKK-beta and JNK were examined with western blotting. The results indicated that berberine can inhibit the expressions of inflammatory factors and inflammatory signaling transduction in adipocytes, but ginsenoside Rb1 doesn't produce obvious inhibitory effects, while rosiglitazone used as positive control drug. When combined with ginsenoside Rb1, the inhibitory effects to 3T3-L1 adipocytes of berberine are weakened, either with or without the stimulation of TNF-α.

      Abstract:With the aim to improve the ACE-inhibitory activity of hydrolysates from silkworm pupae protein, a pretreatment method of the coupled ultrasound-ionic liquids was used. Taking ACE-inhibitory activity as index, the technology conditions of silkworm pupae protein pretreatment by the coupled ultrasound-ionic liquids were determined with single factor experiments and response surface methodology. In addition, the molecular weight changes of silkworm pupae protein and its hydrolysate after pretreatment were studied by Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PAGE). The results indicated that the effect sequence of three main factors for ACE-inhibitory activity from big to small was as follows: liquid-solid ratio, ultrasonic power, pretreatment time. The optimal pretreatment conditions were as follows: liquid-solid ratio 27.2 mL/g, pretreatment time 31.9 min, ultrasonic power 406.8 W. Under the optimal pretreatment conditions, the average ACE-inhibitory rate of silkworm pupae protein hydrolysate was 75.7% (IC50=0.071 mg/mL). Compared with the un-pretreatment and ultrasound pretreatment, the pretreatment of the coupled ultrasound-ionic liquids has obvious advantages in increasing ACE-inhibitory activity of silkworm pupae protein hydrolysate. After the coupled ultrasound-ionic liquids pretreatment, the molecular weight of silkworm pupae protein has no significant change, while the molecular weight of its hydrolysate(<1.43 ku) becomes smaller.

The mobile phase was a mixture of acetonitrile(A) and aqueous(B), gradient elution, the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min, the detection wavelength was at 260 nm, and the column temperature was at 35 ℃. The linear range of strychnine, brucine, strychnine N-oxide, brucine N-oxide and vomicine was 14.64~468.48 μg/mL, 11.625~372.0 μg/mL, 0.555~17.76 μg/mL, 0.891~28.512 μg/mL and 2.5~80.0 μg/mL, respectively. The average recovery of these five alkaloids was 100.3%, 101.7%, 97.7%, 98.8% and 99.6%, respectively. With the total content of five alkaloids as the indexes, the extraction conditions of total alkaloids from S. nux-vomica, such as solvent amounts, concentration and extraction times, were optimized by L9(33) orthogonal experimental design. The optimal extraction process was heat reflux extraction with 20-fold, 70% acidic alcohol for 4 times, one hour for each time. Under this optimum condition, the total content of the five alkaloids of the extraction was 3.633%. The RP-HPLC method was simple, accurate and suitable for simultaneous determination of strychnine, brucine, strychnine N-oxide, brucine N-oxide and vomicine of S. nux-vomica. The optimization of the extraction process of the total alkaloids was more comprehensive and reliable because of the total content of the five alkaloids as the indicator.
