TL;DR: In this article, a review of the industrial processes of manufacturing milk phospholipid products including extraction and fraction, as well as determination assays of milk-phospholipids is presented.
Abstract: Phospholipids are important ingredients in milk. They serve as bioactive components with processing functionalities, despite representing only a small proportion of total milk lipids. There has been increasing interest in vesicle properties and health effects of milk phospholipids. However, there are limited reports on industry-scale manufacturing of related commercial products. This contribution aims to elucidate the industrial processes of manufacturing milk phospholipid products including phospholipid extraction and fraction as well as summarizing determination assays of milk phospholipids. In addition to industrial production, this review elaborates on application aspects, such as the biological properties of milk phospholipids and their technical importance as delivery vesicles of liposomes and phytosomes. In addition, new insights on large-scale production of milk phospholipids and new applications such as phytosomes and antioxidant properties are discussed.

TL;DR: A simplified yet plausible model of molecular mechanism that controls p53 activation of apoptotic switch is presented and demonstrated how molecular interactions and stress signalling molecule ATM's auto-activation of the p53 network dictate cell fate decisions.

TL;DR: A mathematical model of short-term plasticity is developed which explains the experimental data and shows that release sites are governed by non-uniform release probabilities of neurotransmitters, and proposes that Syt7 may be a modulator for the long-term changes of postsynaptic response that helps to train the target frequency of the filter.
