Effects of Different Zn²⁺ Concentrations and High Hydrostatic Pressures (HHP) on Chlorophyll Stability.

ABSTRACT: This study provides a new idea for improving chlorophyll stability and color quality of green leafy vegetables by Zn²⁺ synergistic HHP. Zn-chlorophyll was prepared with zinc acetate and chlorophyll under HHP treatment. The effects of different zinc acetate concentrations and pressures on chlorophyll color, antioxidant activity, Zn²⁺ replacement rate, structure, and thermal stability were analyzed. Results showed with increased zinc acetate concentration and pressure, -a* value, antioxidant activity, and Zn²⁺ replacement rate of samples gradually increased. However, FTIR indicated the structure did not change. HHP fluorescence online analysis showed fluorescence intensity of samples decreased with zinc acetate concentration and pressure increasing. With zinc acetate 10 mg/100 mL and HHP 500 MPa, the highest -a* value (5.19), antioxidant activity (ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP were 37.03 g ACE/100 g, 25.95 g ACE/100 g, 65.43 g TE/100 g DW, respectively), and Zn²⁺ replacement rate (42.34%) were obtained. Thermal stability of Zn-chlorophyll obtained by synergistic effect was improved significantly.

Effect of different hydrostatic pressures on mouse metatarsal and hip cartilage tissues

Project description:Chondrocytes are subject to continuous loads placed upon them throughout development and physical activity. Normal physiological loads enable the maintenance of the articular cartilage health, however abnormal loads contribute to pathological joint ageing. Similarly, the growth plate cartilage is exposed to a number of loads during growth and development. Due to the high-water content of cartilage, hydrostatic pressure is considered one of the main biomechanical influences on chondrocytes and it plays an important role in the mechanoregulation of cartilage. Therefore in this study we conducted RNA-seq analysis of ex vivo hip cap (articular) and metatarsal (growth) cartilage cultures after physiological and injurious hydrostatic pressure. Gene expression in response to 5mPa (physiological) or 50mPa (injurious) hydrostatic pressure was quantified by transcriptome analysis using the Illumina platform

Infusion efficiency of fluorescein derivatives of different molecular sizes into various starches under atmospheric and high hydrostatic pressures.

Project description:Fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextrans (FDs) of different molecular weights were infused into corn, waxy rice, tapioca, and potato starches under atmospheric and high hydrostatic pressures (HHP). FD4, FD10, FD20, and FD40 (Mw 4000, 10,000, 20,000, and 40,000, respectively) were used as infusion materials. Confocal laser scanning microscopy confirmed that all FDs except FD40 infused into corn, waxy rice, and tapioca starches. However, no FDs infused into potato starch. Corn starch had the highest amounts of infused FDs. As molar mass increased, the amount of infused FD decreased in all starches. The infused amounts of FDs in corn starch were similar at 200-300 MPa and atmospheric pressure. Infusion of FDs at 400 MPa was reduced due to partial gelatinization. These results confirm that infusion efficiency is inversely proportional to the molecular weight of the infused material and large materials (Mw > 40,000) cannot be infused into starch granules under atmospheric pressure or HHP.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10068-021-00972-2.

Effect of Admixtures on the Yield Stresses of Cement Pastes under High Hydrostatic Pressures.

Project description:When cement-based materials are transported at a construction site, they undergo high pressures during the pumping process. The rheological properties of the materials under such high pressures are unknown, and estimating the workability of the materials after pumping is a complex problem. Among various influential factors on the rheology of concrete, this study investigated the effect of mineral and chemical admixtures on the high-pressure rheology. A rheometer was fabricated that could measure the rheological properties while maintaining a high pressure to simulate the pumping process. The effects of superplasticizer, silica fume, nanoclay, fly ash, or ground granulated blast furnace slag were investigated when mixed with two control cement pastes. The water-to-cement ratios were 0.35 and 0.50.

Understanding Olive Oil Stability Using Filtration and High Hydrostatic Pressure.

Project description:Veiled extra virgin olive oil (VEVOO) is very attractive on the global market. A study was performed to highlight the role of different amounts of water and microorganisms on the evolution of VEVOO quality during storage, using the selective effects of the application of individual or combined filtration and high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatments. Four oil processing trials were carried out in four replicates, resulting in a full factorial design with two independent fixed factors: filtration and HPP treatments. The turbidity of all the olive oil samples was characterized. Furthermore, all the olive oil samples were analysed for legal parameters, volatile organic compounds and phenolic compounds during the storage tests. The microbial contamination in the presence of a high level of water activity (>0.6 Aw) was related to the formation of volatile aroma compounds, which were responsible for the "fusty" sensory defect. Furthermore, high water activity values were related to an increase in the hydrolytic degradation rate of the phenolic compounds. The oil turbidity has to be planned and controlled, starting from adjustment of the water content and application of good manufacturing practices.

Crystal structure and stability of Tl2CO3 at high pressures.

Project description:The crystal structure of dithallium carbonate, Tl(2)CO(3) (C2/m, Z = 4), was investigated at pressures of up to 7.4 GPa using single-crystal X-ray diffraction in a diamond anvil cell. It is stable to at least 5.82 GPa. All atoms except for one of the O atoms lie on crystallographic mirror planes. At higher pressures, the material undergoes a phase transition that destroys the single crystal.

Rate and Extent of Growth of a Model Extremophile, <i>Archaeoglobus fulgidus</i>, Under High Hydrostatic Pressures.

Project description:High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) batch cultivation of a model extremophile, Archaeoglobus fulgidus type strain VC-16, was performed to explore how elevated pressures might affect microbial growth and physiology in the deep marine biosphere. Though commonly identified in high-temperature and high-pressure marine environments (up to 2-5 km below sea level, 20-50 MPa pressures), A. fulgidus growth at elevated pressure has not been characterized previously. Here, exponential growth of A. fulgidus was observed up to 60 MPa when supported by the heterotrophic metabolism of lactate oxidation coupled to sulfate reduction, and up to 40 MPa for autotrophic CO2 fixation coupled to thiosulfate reduction via H2. Maximum growth rates for this heterotrophic metabolism were observed at 20 MPa, suggesting that A. fulgidus is a moderate piezophile under these conditions. However, only piezotolerance was observed for autotrophy, as growth rates remained nearly constant from 0.3 to 40 MPa. Experiments described below show that A. fulgidus continues both heterotrophic sulfate reduction and autotrophic thiosulfate reduction nearly unaffected by increasing pressure up to 30 MPa and 40 MPa, respectively. As these pressures encompass a variety of subsurface marine environments, A. fulgidus serves as a model extremophile for exploring the effects of elevated pressure on microbial metabolisms in the deep subsurface. Further, these results exemplify the need for high-pressure cultivation of deep-sea and subsurface microorganisms to better reflect in situ physiological conditions.

Different Effects of Aging on Intraocular Pressures Measured by Three Different Tonometers.

Project description:This study aimed to compare intraocular pressures (IOP) using different tonometers, Goldmann applanation (IOPGAT), non-contact (IOPNCT), and rebound (IOPRBT), and to assess the effects of aging and central corneal thickness (CCT) on the measurements. The IOPGAT, IOPNCT, IOPRBT, mean patient age (65.1 ± 16.2 years), and CCT (521.7 ± 39.2 µm) were collected retrospectively from 1054 eyes. The differences among IOPs were compared by the paired t-test. Possible correlations between devices, age, and CCT were assessed by linear regression analyses. The effects of age and CCT on the IOP reading were assessed by mixed-effects regression models. The IOPGAT values were 2.4 and 1.4 mmHg higher than IOPNCT and IOPRBT, respectively; the IOPNCT was 1.0 mmHg lower than IOPRBT (p < 0.0001 for all comparisons). The IOPs measured by each tonometer were highly correlated with each other (r = 0.81-0.90, t = 45.2-65.5). The linear regression analyses showed that age was negatively correlated with IOPNCT (r = -0.12, t = -4.0) and IOPRBT (r = -0.14, t = -4.5) but not IOPGAT (r = 0.00, t = -0.2); the CCT was positively correlated with IOPGAT (r = 0.13, t = 4.3), IOPNCT (r = 0.29, t = 9.8), and IOPRBT (r = 0.22, t = 7.2). The mixed-effect regression models showed significant negative correlations between age and IOPNCT (t = -2.6) and IOPRBT (t = -3.4), no correlation between age and IOPGAT (t = 0.2), and a significant positive correlation between CCT and the tonometers (t = 3.4-7.3). No differences between IOPGAT and IOPRBT were seen at the age of 38.8 years. CCT affects IOPs from all tonometers; age affects IOPNCT and IOPRBT in different degrees. IOPRBT tended to be higher than IOPGAT in young subjects, but this stabilized in middle age and became higher in older subjects.

Molecular determinant of the effects of hydrostatic pressure on protein folding stability.

Project description:Hydrostatic pressure is an important environmental variable that plays an essential role in biological adaptation for many extremophilic organisms (for example, piezophiles). Increase in hydrostatic pressure, much like increase in temperature, perturbs the thermodynamic equilibrium between native and unfolded states of proteins. Experimentally, it has been observed that increase in hydrostatic pressure can both increase and decrease protein stability. These observations suggest that volume changes upon protein unfolding can be both positive and negative. The molecular details of this difference in sign of volume changes have been puzzling the field for the past 50 years. Here we present a comprehensive thermodynamic model that provides in-depth analysis of the contribution of various molecular determinants to the volume changes upon protein unfolding. Comparison with experimental data shows that the model allows quantitative predictions of volume changes upon protein unfolding, thus paving the way to proteome-wide computational comparison of proteins from different extremophilic organisms.

Effects of high hydrostatic pressure on coastal bacterial community abundance and diversity.

Project description:Hydrostatic pressure is an important parameter influencing the distribution of microbial life in the ocean. In this study, the response of marine bacterial populations from surface waters to pressures representative of those under deep-sea conditions was examined. Southern California coastal seawater collected 5 m below the sea surface was incubated in microcosms, using a range of temperatures (16 to 3°C) and hydrostatic pressure conditions (0.1 to 80 MPa). Cell abundance decreased in response to pressure, while diversity increased. The morphology of the community also changed with pressurization to a predominant morphotype of small cocci. The pressure-induced community changes included an increase in the relative abundance of Alphaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Flavobacteria largely at the expense of Epsilonproteobacteria. Culturable high-pressure-surviving bacteria were obtained and found to be phylogenetically similar to isolates from cold and/or deep-sea environments. These results provide novel insights into the response of surface water bacteria to changes in hydrostatic pressure.
