TL;DR: Results indicated that neotame exhibited better stability than aspartame in both pasteurized and in-bottle sterilized flavoured milk, and the proposed HPLC method can be successfully used for the routine determination of aspartam and neotam in flavoured Milk.

TL;DR: It is depicted that feeding of probiotic fermented milk enhances phagocytic activity of the macrophages.
Abstract: Six strains of lactobacilli belonging to three species (Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus helveticus) were evaluated for probiotic attributes viz. acid tolerance, bile tolerance and cell surface hydrophobicity. All the six strains exhibited probiotic attributes with considerable degree of variation. Three Lactobacillus strains selected on the basis of probiotic attributes were used for preparing three different fermented milks. In order to evaluate the effect of feeding these probiotic fermented milks on macrophage cell function, an in-vivo trial was conducted in mice for a period of 2, 5 and 8 days. The control group of mice was fed with skim milk. The phagocytic activity of macrophages increased significantly (P < 0.05) on feeding fermented milk prepared using L. acidophilus, L. casei and L. helveticus as compared to milk group (control) on 2nd, 5th and 8th day of feeding, respectively. Likewise, the release of β-glucuronidase and β-galactosidase from peritoneal macrophages increased significantly (P < 0.05) on 2nd, 5th and 8th day of feeding as compared to their respective control group (milk). The results thus depict that feeding of probiotic fermented milk enhances phagocytic activity of the macrophages.

TL;DR: It was concluded that the sperm-oviduct explant binding index was positively related to (1) the proportion of membrane-intact spermatozoa in a given semen sample and (2) invivo fertility of the buffalo bull, indicating the possibility of developing a fertility prediction tool using a sperm-OViductExplant binding model, once validated on a greater number of bulls.
Abstract: We report here the differences in sperm functional attributes and sperm-oviduct binding index in bulls with different field fertility ratings. Cryopreserved spermatozoa from Murrah buffalo bulls (n=9) with different fertility ratings were evaluated for membrane integrity, capacitation status, acrosome intactness and protein tyrosine phosphorylation status. Frozen--thawed spermatozoa were incubated with oviduct explants for 1h under 5% CO2, 38.5°C with 95% relative humidity and the number of spermatozoa bound to the unit area of oviduct explants (binding index; BI) was assessed using 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazolyl-carbocyanine iodide (JC-1) fluorescent staining. The proportion of membrane-intact and acrosome-intact spermatozoa was significantly (P<0.05) higher and the proportion of capacitated spermatozoa was significantly (P<0.05) lower in high-fertile bulls compared with medium- and low-fertile bulls. The relationship between BI and bull fertility was significant and positive (r=0.69; P=0.04). BI was negatively and significantly (r=-0.83; P=0.01) related to membrane-compromised spermatozoa. It was concluded that the sperm-oviduct explant binding index was positively related to (1) the proportion of membrane-intact spermatozoa in a given semen sample and (2) invivo fertility of the buffalo bull, indicating the possibility of developing a fertility prediction tool using a sperm-oviduct explant binding model, once validated on a greater number of bulls.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the performance of different fractionation approaches to identify the method that satisfies requirements for analysis of clinical samples and to include good plasma proteome coverage in combination with reasonable sample output.
Abstract: Human plasma is one of the most widely used tissues in clinical analysis, and plasma-based biomarkers are used for monitoring patient health status and/or response to medical treatment to avoid unnecessary invasive biopsy. Data-driven plasma proteomics has suffered from a lack of throughput and detection sensitivity, largely due to the complexity of the plasma proteome and in particular the enormous quantitative dynamic range, estimated to be between 9 and 13 orders of magnitude between the lowest and the highest abundance protein. A major challenge is to identify workflows that can achieve depth of plasma proteome coverage while minimizing the complexity of the sample workup and maximizing the sample throughput. In this study, we have performed intensive depletion of high-abundant plasma proteins or enrichment of low-abundant proteins using the Agilent multiple affinity removal liquid chromatography (LC) column-Human 6 (Hu6), the Agilent multiple affinity removal LC column-Human 14 (Hu14), and ProteoMiner followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS PAGE) and C18 prefractionation techniques. We compared the performance of each of these fractionation approaches to identify the method that satisfies requirements for analysis of clinical samples and to include good plasma proteome coverage in combination with reasonable sample output. In this study, we report that one-dimensional (1D) gel-based prefractionation allows parallel sample processing and no loss of proteome coverage, compared with serial chromatographic separation, and significantly accelerates analysis time, particularly important for large clinical projects. Furthermore, we show that a variety of methodologies can achieve similarly high plasma proteome coverage, allowing flexibility in method selection based on project-specific needs. These considerations are important in the effort to accelerate plasma proteomics research so as to provide efficient, reliable, and accurate diagnoses, population-based health screening, clinical research studies, and other clinical work.
