Emulsifying and Foaming Properties of Okara Protein Hydrolysates

TL;DR: In this paper, the extraction and isolation of okara protein from soy milk was optimized by using dilute sodium hydroxide and subsequent isoelectric precipitation, and the obtained OPI protein isolate (OPI) was hydrolyzed with different enzymes into a range of hydrolysates with different degrees of hydrolysis.

Identification of Genus Vigna using ITS2 and matK as a Two-Locus DNA Barcode

TL;DR: This work used concatenated data to increase the resolving power of ITS2 and used matK as an additional tool for phylogenetic analysis in Vigna because characterization of the nucleotide sequences of the matK region was easier and more cost-effective than that of the ITS region.

Dietary Modulation of the Human Colonic Microbiota: Introducing the Concept of Prebiotics

TL;DR: By combining the rationale of pro- and prebiotics, the concept of synbiotics is proposed to characterize some colonic foods with interesting nutritional properties that make these compounds candidates for classification as health-enhancing functional food ingredients.

Genistein, a specific inhibitor of tyrosine-specific protein kinases.

TL;DR: Genistein inhibited the EGF-stimulated increase in phosphotyrosine level in A431 cells and scarcely inhibited the enzyme activities of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases such as cAMP-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase kinases, and the Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzymeprotein kinase C.

Glycemic index of foods: a physiological basis for carbohydrate exchange.

TL;DR: The effect of different foods on the blood glucose levels was fed individually to groups of 5 to 10 healthy fasting volunteers, and a significant negative relationship was seen between fat and protein and postprandial glucose rise but not with fiber or sugar content.
