Comparative study on structural characterization, physicochemical properties, and in vitro probiotic activities of resistant starch from different varieties of Euryale ferox

mycolabadmin

Euryale ferox, a nutritious aquatic plant, contains two varieties with significantly different health benefits. North Euryale ferox has much higher levels of resistant starch (a special type of starch that resists digestion) compared to South Euryale ferox, making it potentially more beneficial for gut health and diabetes management. The resistant

Issues on microbial soil remediation: a case of Cd detoxification by Bacillus strains for alleviating heavy metal stress in crop plants

mycolabadmin

This research paper identifies critical problems in how scientists are using bacteria to clean up cadmium-contaminated soil for farming. The authors found that researchers often incorrectly identify which species of Bacillus bacteria they are using, don’t properly check if the bacteria are safe for humans and animals, and use unrealistically

Seaweed Protein Hydrolyzates: A Valuable Source of Short- and Medium-Chain Peptides with Multifunctional Properties

mycolabadmin

Scientists found that an invasive seaweed species can be converted into health-promoting peptides (small protein fragments) that may help control blood pressure and blood sugar levels. The study identified hundreds of these peptides and tested their effectiveness against enzymes involved in hypertension and diabetes. The peptides showed promise as natural
