Inclusion of lupin meal and effect of a commercial feed supplement (Synergen™) in diets for carp, Cyprinus carpio
Abstract Plant proteins are mainly used to formulate diets for carp. Soybean meal (SBM) is one of the most nutritious of all plant protein sources in carp feeds. However, an increase in the use of soybean meal for human consumption and animal feed in both developed and developing countries has …

Manothermosonication (MTS) and pH-shifting combined treatment for modifying the functional properties of plant proteins: protein-stabilized nanocarriers and protection of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
Plant proteins are low cost, non-toxic, natural, biocompatible, and biodegradable polymers. In recent years, plant proteins have drawn increasing attention from the food and pharmaceutical industries as an alternative to animal proteins due to increased consumer concerns over the safety of …

Role of SABP2 in Systemic Acquired Resistance Induced by Acibenzolar-S-Methyl in Plants.
<p>Plants have evolved an efficient mechanism to defend themselves against pathogens. Many biotic and abiotic agents have been shown to induce defense mechanism in plants. Acibenzolar-S-Methyl (ASM) is a commercially available chemical inducer of local and systemic resistance (SAR) response in …

Regulation of growth and storage product metabolism in cultured kernels of maize
… (as an amino acid mixture). Endosperm starch and protein syntheses responded to N supply in much the same way as do kernels grown on the intact plant. Protein accumulation was generally independent of sucrose concentration in the medium, while starch synthesis was reduced by low C supply. …

Milk protein adulteration detection via mass spectra and infrared spectroscopy
Milk protein adulteration concerns the addition of cheap foreign substance having high nitrogen content into milk and dairy products, to mask low natural protein in milk. Plant protein is a potential candidate of adulterants; soy, pea, wheat, and rice proteins being the most popular. The …
