Abstract:
This study directly extracted flaxseed miscellaneous particles (FMPs) from defatted flaxseed meal using a thermal acid extraction and ethanol precipitation method to develop a novel food-grade Pickering emulsion stabilizer. FMPs exhibited superior wettability compared to pure flaxseed gum, with a particle size of 342.73 ± 22.05 nm at pH 4.0. The obtained FMPs (5%, 6%, and 7%, wt%) were successfully used to fabricate Pickering emulsion gels with oil phase volume fractions of 60%, 70%, and 75% respectively. The resulting Pickering emulsions were typical oil-in-water emulsions with uniform droplet sizes ranging from 10.68 to 23.07 μm with excellent rheological properties. FMPs provided a robust interfacial barrier and steric hindrance, ensuring emulsion stability and inhibiting lipid oxidation. This study directly extracted stabilizers for Pickering emulsions, providing a valuable reference for the value-added utilization of flaxseed meals.

One key aspect of the noncompartmental approach is determining a drug's total clearance. This can be done by dividing the drug dose by the area under the concentration-time curve from zero to infinity. The area under the concentration-time curve represents the drug's...

The paradox
Nucleosomes, paradoxically, perform two opposite functions simultaneously. On the one hand, their main responsibility is to protect the delicate DNA strands from physical damage and help achieve a higher compaction ratio. While on the other hand, they must allow polymerase enzymes to access DNA...
