RESUMO
BACKGROUND: To investigate the relationship between adverse childhood experiences and internet gaming disorder (IGD) and the mediating role of resilience in the relationship between these two factors. METHODS: The adverse childhood experience scale, resilience scale and IGD Scale were administered to 9349 university students. Correlations and mediating effects were calculated among these scores. RESULTS: After controlling for sex and age, significant correlations among adverse childhood experiences, resilience and IGD were observed; resilience was a partial mediator variable in the relationship between adverse childhood experiences and IGD. CONCLUSIONS: The more adverse childhood experiences an individual has, the less their mental toughness and the greater their tendency to become addicted to internet games. Adverse childhood experiences can effectively predict IGD, and the risk of becoming addicted to the internet can be decreased by increasing one's mental toughness.

3-Methylthio-1-propanol (3-Met) is an important flavor compound in various alcoholic beverages such as Baijiu and Huangjiu. To maintain the content of 3-Met in these alcoholic beverages, it is necessary to screen a micro-organism with high yield of 3-Met from the brewing environment. In this study, the ability of yeast strains from the Baijiu brewing to produce 3-Met was analyzed, aiming to obtain yeast with high-yield 3-Met, and its fermentation conditions were optimized. Firstly, 39 yeast strains were screened using 3-Met conversion medium. The results showed that the majority of the strains from Baijiu brewing sources could produce 3-Met, and nearly half of the strains produced more than 0.5 g/L of 3-Met. Among these, yeast F10404, Y03401, and Y8#01, produced more than 1.0 g/L of 3-Met, with yeast Y03401 producing the highest amount at 1.30 g/L. Through morphological observation, physiological and biochemical analysis, and molecular biological identification, it was confirmed that yeast Y03401 was a Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Subsequently, the optimal fermentation conditions for 3-Met production by this yeast were obtained through single-factor designs, Plackett-Burman test, steepest ascent path design and response surface methodology. When the glucose concentration was 60 g/L, yeast extract concentration was 0.8 g/L, L-methionine concentration was 3.8 g/L, initial pH was 4, incubation time was 63 h, inoculum size was 1.6%, shaking speed was 150 rpm, loading volume was 50 mL/250 mL, and temperature was 26 °C, the content of 3-Met produced by S. cerevisiae Y03401 reached a high level of 3.66 g/L. It was also noteworthy that, in contrast to other study findings, this yeast was able to create substantial amounts of 3-Met even in the absence of L-methionine precursor. Based on the clear genome of S. cerevisiae and its characteristics in 3-Met production, S. cerevisiae Y03401 had broad prospects for application in alcoholic beverages such as Baijiu.
RESUMO
Soy molasses is rich in oligosaccharides like sucrose, stachyose, and raffinose, with stachyose and raffinose being functional oligosaccharides. Harnessing soy molasses for the production of functional soy oligosaccharides (FSO) can significantly elevate its value. Biological purification, a method leveraging the selective utilization of different carbon sources by microorganisms, allows for the specific removal of sucrose from soy molasses while preserving stachyose and raffinose, thereby increasing the FSO content. This research identified a yeast named YT312 with strong purification capabilities for soy molasses and optimized the purification conditions. The study revealed that yeast YT312 was Wickerhamomyces anomalus, exhibiting a broad range of growth temperatures and pH levels alongside a high tolerance to glucose, sucrose, and NaCl. Through single-factor and orthogonal experiments, it was established that under specific conditions-0.375% inoculum size, 30 °C fermentation temperature, 150 rpm shaking speed, 10-fold dilution ratio, pH of 7, and 12 h of fermentation-sucrose was completely removed from soy molasses, while functional raffinose and stachyose were retained at rates of 96.1% and 90.2%, respectively. Consequently, W. anomalus YT312 displayed exceptional characteristics for the biological purification of soy molasses and the production of FSO.
RESUMO
Saccharomycopsis fibuligera, which produces enzymes like amylase and protease as well as flavor substances like ß-phenyl ethanol and phenyl acetate, plays a crucial role in traditional fermented foods. However, this strain still lacks a high-density fermentation culture, which has had an impact on the strain's industrial application process. Therefore, this study investigated the optimization of medium ingredients and fermentation conditions for high-density fermentation of S. fibuligera Y1402 through single-factor design, Plackett-Burman design, steepest ascent test, and response surface analysis. The study found that glucose at 360.61 g/L, peptone at 50 g/L, yeast extract at 14.65 g/L, KH2PO4 at 5.49 g/L, MgSO4 at 0.40 g/L, and CuSO4 at 0.01 g/L were the best medium ingredients for S. fibuligera Y1402. Under these conditions, after three days of fermentation, the total colony count reached 1.79 × 108 CFU/mL. The optimal fermentation conditions were determined to be an initial pH of 6.0, an inoculum size of 1.10%, a liquid volume of 12.5 mL/250 mL, a rotation speed of 120 r/min, a fermentation temperature of 21 °C and a fermentation time of 53.50 h. When fermentation was conducted using the optimized medium and conditions, the total colony count achieved a remarkable value of 5.50 × 109 CFU/mL, exhibiting a substantial increase of nearly 31 times the original value in the optimal culture medium. This significant advancement offers valuable insights and a reference for the industrial-scale production of S. fibuligera.
RESUMO
A high-yield 3-methylthiopropanol (3-Met) yeast Y1402 was obtained from sesame-flavored Daqu, and it was identified as Saccharomycopsis fibuligera. S. fibuligera Y1402 showed a broad range of growth temperatures and pH, as well as the maximum tolerance to glucose, NaCl, nicotine, and 3-Met at 50% (w/w), 15% (w/v), 1.2 g/L, and 18 g/L, respectively. After optimization using single-factor experiments, a Plackett-Burman design, a steepest ascent test, and a Box-Behnken design, the 3-Met yield reached 4.03 g/L by S. fibuligera Y1402 under the following optimal conditions: glucose concentration of 40 g/L, yeast extract concentration of 0.63 g/L, Tween 80 concentration of 2 g/L, L-methionine concentration of 5 g/L, liquid volume of 25 mL/250 mL, initial pH of 5.3, fermentation temperature of 32 °C, inoculum size of 0.8%, shaking speed of 210 rpm, and fermentation time of 54 h. The fermentation was scaled up to a 3 L fermenter under the optimized conditions, and the yield of 3-Met reached 0.71 g/L. Additionally, an aroma analysis revealed that the flavor substances produced by S. fibuligera Y1402 in sorghum hydrolysate medium was mainly composed of compounds with floral, sweet, creamy, roasted nut, and clove-like aromas. Therefore, S. fibuligera has great potential for application in the brewing of Baijiu and other fermented foods.
