RESUMEN
In this study, we conducted sensory evaluation and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis on fermented goat milk samples prepared by 12 strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from goat milk to screen for strains with the ability to reduce the goaty flavor. The bacterial counts of fermented goat milk was 7.07-9.01 log CFU/mL. The electronic nose distinguished fresh goat milk (FGM) and fermented goat milk, and the electronic tongue results showed that Leuconostoc citreum 1, 4, 20, 22, 32, and 57, Latilactobacillus curvatus 144 and 147 imparted fermented goat milk a taste different from FGM. Overall, Leuconostoc citreum 57, Leuconostoc citreum 126, Latilactobacillus curvatus 142, Latilactobacillus curvatus 143, and Latilactobacillus curvatus 147 were screened with the ability to improve the flavor of goat milk. They gave fermented goat milk a goat flavor score lower than or equal to FGM. And the fermented goat milk samples 57, 126, 142, 143, and 147 contained 25, 22, 15, 24, and 17 volatile flavor compounds, respectively, with a greater variety and content of ketones and aldehydes and lower levels of hexanoic acid, octanoic acid, and decanoic acid than FGM. However, the pH and WHC results indicated that the application of these strains as secondary cultures is necessary. Our finding provides basic research data to improve the flavor of goat milk products.

As a nutritious plant with valuable potential, the Moringa oleifera Lam. (MOL) leaf addition on Fuzhuan brick tea (FBT) for the co-fermentation (MOL-FBT) was an industry innovation and a new route to make full use of MOL leaf. After optimization of the extraction conditions, the best conditions for the polyphenols extraction method from MOL-FBT (MFP) were 60°C for 40 min (1:80, V/W) using response surface methodology. A total of 30 phenolics were identified and quantified. Most of the polyphenols were increased after adding MOL leaf for co-fermentation compared to FBT polyphenols. In particular, caffeic acids were found only in MFP. Moreover, the MFP received high value in taste, aroma, and color. In total, 62 volatile flavor compounds, consisting of 3 acids, 5 alcohols, 15 aldehydes, 4 esters, 20 hydrocarbons, 10 ketones, and 5 others, were identified in MFP. In addition, MFP inhibited 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation in a dose-dependent manner and decreased lipid accumulation via the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ)/CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (CEBPα)/cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) axis and induced a brown adipocyte-like phenotype. In vivo experiments were further conducted to confirm the in vitro results. MFP regulated lipid accumulation, glucose/insulin tolerance, improved liver and kidney function, and inhibited the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors by the PPARγ/CEBPα/CD36 axis and alleviated inflammation in high fat and high fructose diet-induced obese mice. In summary, MFP possesses high-quality properties and anti-obesity effects, as well as the great potential to be used as a novel functional food product.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) can lead to risks associated with animal and human health through the transfer along food chains. It is confirmed that PFASs can be transported to each part of plants after taken up by the roots. To better elucidate the underlying mechanisms for such exposure, it is highly valuable to develop analytical capabilities for in vivo monitoring of PFASs in live plants. In this work, a novel imprinted covalent organic frameworks (CMIP) solid-phase microextraction coupled with ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was developed with low limits of detection for six acidic PFASs (0.1-0.3 ng g-1) and used for in vivo monitoring in live aloe. The CMIP coating shows good precision (RSD of intra and inter ≤9.6 % and 10.2 %, respectively) and possesses much higher extraction efficiency than the commercial coatings. After cultivating aloe in soil spiked PFASs, the in vivo assays gave a wealth of information, including steady-state concentrations, translocation factors, elimination rate constants, and half-life of PFASs. The in vivo tracing method for live plants can provide much needed and unique information to evaluate the risk of PFASs, which are very important for the safety of agriculture production.

The growing detection of emerging perfluoropolyether carboxylic acids (PFECAs) in food has raised considerable concerns about their high persistence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity. In this study, a pyridine-functionalized covalent organic framework (Py-COF) was synthesized by introducing basic pyridyl groups into Br-COF via Heck cross-coupling. According to density functional theory, PFECAs were adsorbed in the pore sites of Py-COF via O-···HN+ interaction, which was the stable and predominant adsorption configuration. After systematic characterization, Py-COF was used as the coating for solid-phase microextraction combined with high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (SPME-HPLC-MS/MS) for the efficient determination of PFECAs in food. Under the optimum conditions, the method showed satisfactory linearity (R2 ≥ 0.998), low limits of detection (0.001-0.004 ng g-1), and good relative recoveries (82.5 %-112 %). The established method was satisfactorily used for the analysis of trace PFECAs in food samples.

Due to the environmental persistence and various health problems associated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), they have come under increased public scrutiny. However, the efficient extraction of PFASs from complex media remains challenging. Herein, an olefin-linked covalent organic framework (COF-CN) has been prepared via a Knoevenagel condensation reaction, followed by reduction using LiAlH4 to form an amine-functionalized COF (COF-NH2). The characterization results demonstrated that the crystal structure was maintained during the post-modification step. Isothermal and kinetic adsorption studies showed the higher affinity of COF-NH2 toward PFASs. Based on density functional theory, the adsorption mechanism of the stable six-member-ring structure formed between COF-NH2 and PFASs via hydrogen bonding was tentatively revealed. After optimizing the solid-phase microextraction parameters, legacy and emerging PFASs were efficiently extracted from fish using the COF-NH2 coating, followed by detection using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The method exhibited ideal linearity, low limits of quantification, excellent precision, and high relative recoveries. Finally, the bioconcentration kinetics for goldfish was studied, which can provide a feasible platform for investigating the accumulate ion and toxicity of PFASs.

The influence of nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) supplementation on growth performance, carcass traits, intestinal development, and lipid metabolism was assessed in 600 one-day-old male meat ducks (Cherry Valley ducks) from 1 to 35 d of age. Diets were supplemented with 0, 200, 500, 800 and 1,500 mg/kg NCC during both the starter (1-14 d) and grower (15-35 d) phases. Each dietary treatment consisted of 8 replicate cages of 15 birds. Supplementation of NCC was associated with dose dependent increases in BW gain and feed intake (P < 0.01) during 1-14 d of age and in BW at 35 d of age. As NCC content increased, the percentage of breast meat weight (P < 0.05) and leg (with bone) weight (P < 0.05) linearly increased, while the percentage of abdominal fat weight (P < 0.01) linearly decreased in ducks at 35 d of age. Supplementation of NCC resulted in a dose-dependent increase in the weight (P < 0.05) and density (P < 0.01) of the cecum. The percentage of total hepatic lipid content (P < 0.01) at 14 d of age and serum triglyceride (TG) concentration (P = 0.052) at 35 d of age linearly decreased with increasing of dietary NCC addition. In conclusion, inclusion of 1,500 mg/kg NCC in feed resulted in the greatest improvements in duck performance, intestinal development and lipid deposition.
