Behind ‘mansplain’: The Challenging of Colonialism in Girls’ Response in a Chat Group
Authors: Fang Ruoyi
Published: August 2022

In this paper, I look at how the intersectionality of feminism and colonialism on Tinder – one of the biggest dating Apps – contributes to the production and circulation of gender tensions in modern China. To do so, I have been staying in a particular chat group for half a year, created by a female Tinder user who shows strong dissatisfaction with Chinese men on Tinder and now includes more than 300 women holding similar values. They frequently share experiences of using Tinder characterized by taunting, complaining, and swearing towards a particular type of male Tinder users who were “typical Chinese men” in their eyes. During this time, I collected various data: the male profiles, chat records on Tinder and in the group, how and why females rename themselves mockingly targeting such males. I adopt Linguistic Ethnography to analyze the emerging discourses that shape the large gender tensions. I aim to show that the logic underlying why the mocking is always related to western culture. These men are annoyed about Chinese females getting in touch with western men, calling them “easy girl” and teaching women patronizingly. However, they simultaneously use profiles with foreigners, western education backgrounds and introduce themselves in English to show off their charm to win the woman's attention. In response, girls sometimes deliberately provoke these men by praising western men and comment on the resulted conversations in the chat group. Based on this analysis, I argue that the patriotism enacted by these men is challenged by the group whose mocking as a discursive practice, although on the surface aligned with colonialism (e.g., praising western males), constitutes a form of anticolonialism potentially advancing the ongoing gender movement in China. Furthermore, this group's practice points to further research on dating platforms and females on the frontline of gender tension.
SARS-CoV-2 computer simulation of sterilization via electrical resistance in air conditioning

Published: August 2022

In search of reinvention in the middle of the pandemic, an equipment adapted from a system that controls morph for indoor environments that have air conditioners is proposed.  This paper presents a study via computational modeling to test the effect of electrical resistance as an air filter against SARS-CoV-2. The mode of transmission of SARS-CoV-2 includes, for example, transmission via contact, droplets, and aerosols present in indoor humidity. Therefore, aerosol spread of SARS-CoV-2 is similar to the indoor spread of the morph. The result shows that the system works by eliminating the humidity in the air containing SARS-CoV-2. What we are trying to demonstrate is that an electrically resistive filter controls the spread of the virus in air up to 10 cubic meters in size indoors. This system does not replace existing filters, but is a piece of equipment to help control SARS-CoV-2.
Tryptyk piastowski: “Kazimierz Wielki”, “Jadwiga, królowa polska”, “Piast” Juliana Ursyna Niemcewicza
Authors: Mateusiak Anna
Published: August 2022

Te trzy utwory łączy przede wszystkim wyraźnie podkreślony w każdym z nich piastowski rodowód władców i zarazem tytułowych bohaterów, czego nie odnajdujemy w żadnej z pozostałych sztuk autorstwa Juliana Ursyna Niemcewicza. W trudnym, napiętnowanym dramatyzmem okresie 1792–1830 w Niemcewiczu widziano kwintesencję polskości i pewien typ jej reprezentatywności. „Piękny starzec”, którego wizerunek urabiała opinia publiczna na wzór „sławnych mężów” Plutarcha, wychodził ze swoimi poglądami i postawami oraz twórczością naprzeciw powszechnym w tym czasie dociekaniom nad charakterem narodowym Polaków. Był, jak sam twierdził, człowiekiem „czterech epok historycznych”, obywatelem dwóch światów, uczestnikiem dwóch zrywów narodowowyzwoleńczych i trzykrotnym wygnańcem; ponadto posłem, więźniem, rycerzem, rolnikiem. Równie imponująco przedstawia się jego twórczość literacka. Próbował swych sił w wielu gatunkach literackich, będąc kodyfikatorem niektórych z nich, innych zaś przykładnym realizatorem. Książka „Tryptyk piastowski: «Kazimierz Wielki», «Jadwiga, królowa polska», «Piast» „Juliana Ursyna Niemcewicza” w znaczącym stopniu wzbogaca stan wiedzy nad późnooświeceniowym dramatem i twórczością Niemcewicza. Historycznoliteracki wstęp wprowadza w lekturę tekstów. Część źródłowa edycji charakteryzuje się godną podkreślenia starannością edytorską, zarówno merytoryczną jak i estetyczną. Zaopatrzona została bogatymi przypisami, w których autorka z rozwagą wyjaśnia zawiłe niekiedy kwestie leksykalno-semantyczne oraz trafnie rozpoznaje aluzyjny charakter fragmentów dramatów odnoszących się do aktualnych wydarzeń politycznych.
Arabskie oblężenia Konstantynopola w VII–VIII wieku. Rzeczywistość i mit
Authors: Cecota Błażej
Published: August 2022

Cesarstwo Bizantyńskie w VII i w początkach VIII w. Kalifat Umajjadów w epoce ekspansji. Pierwsze oblężenie Konstantynopola przez Arabów. Oblężenie Konstantynopola w latach 717–718. Echa jego oblężeń w źródłach proweniencji zachodniej i wschodniej. Wiek siódmy dla Cesarstwa Bizantyńskiego był czasem wieloaspektowego przełomu dziejowego. Doszło wówczas do poważnego ograniczenia terytorium państwa. Kolejni cesarze dynastii, założonej przez Herakliusza, stanęli przed głębokimi problemami związanymi z konfliktem religijnym, gospodarczym regresem i załamaniem niektórych instytucji państwowych. Po śmierci Herakliusza władze konstantynopolitańskie przedefiniowały na nowo funkcje państwa, ograniczając jego obowiązki, przy jednoczesnym zapewnieniu realizacji jego podstawowych zadań. Kwestią, która musiała zostać rozwiązana przez ówczesnych cesarzy bizantyńskich, była obrona państwa przed wyniszczającymi je najazdami arabskimi, które w pewnych momentach wręcz zagrażały istnieniu cesarstwa. Arabskie oblężenia Konstantynopola, oprócz zwycięskich wojen Herakliusza z Persją, późniejszej utraty, do niedawna najważniejszych, bizantyńskich prowincji – Syrii i Egiptu oraz reform wojskowych i gospodarczych następców wielkiego cesarza, można zaliczyć do najistotniejszych wydarzeń w VII i początkach VIII w. Doczekało się wreszcie kompletnego, odrębnego studium w postaci niniejszej monografii. Autor nie tylko dogłębnie je analizuje na szerokim tle historycznym, ale również zastanawia się nad procesem ich mitologizacji. Czytelnik znajdzie w książce wiele istotnych i interesujących spostrzeżeń dotyczących historii cesarstwa bizantyńskiego w okresie narodzin islamu i pierwszego wieku ekspansji muzułmańskiego kalifatu na Bliskim Wschodzie.

Published: August 2022

Le but de la présente étude est de formuler et fabriquer des suppositoires à visée antipaludique à base de matières premières locales afin d’améliorer la prise en charge du paludisme, essentiellement chez les enfants âgés de moins de 5 ans. Pour faire cela, on a utilisé comme principe actif la poudre de feuilles et tiges sèches de Artémisia annua provenant de la Région de l’Ouest-Cameroun et comme excipient le beurre de karité en provenance de la région du Nord Cameroun puis amélioré à 4% de silice colloïdale. Les essais organoleptiques ont mis en évidence une poudre de couleur grisâtre, de saveur amère et très odorante. L’analyse granulométrique a montré que la poudre de feuilles et tiges sèches de Artémisia annua a une granulométrie allant de très fine à fineLa concentration en flavonoïdes totaux de la poudre de feuilles et tiges sèches de Artémisia annua est de 76,9 μg/ml d’équivalent de quercétine. Les suppositoires à visée antipaludique fabriqués à partir de 250mg de poudre de feuilles et tiges sèches de Artemisia annua et 1820mg de beurre de karité+4% de silice colloïdale ont suivi un contrôle pharmaceutique. Ce contrôle qualité des suppositoires à visée antipaludique contenant Artémisia annua fabriqués en utilisant le beurre de karité comme excipient a donné des valeurs des paramètres physico-chimiques en adéquation aux valeurs standards. La forme galénique issue de cette formule pourrait présenter une meilleure prise en charge thérapeutique des patients et particulièrement les enfants, au Cameroun et ailleurs en Afrique.

Published: August 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic and the mandated cessation of surgical procedures for a substantial portion of the 2020 year placed tremendous strain, both clinically and financially, on the health-care system in the United States. As a surgical specialty that accounts for nearly a quarter of all hospital net income, the revenue recovery of orthopaedic service lines (OSLs) is of particular importance to the financial recovery of their broader health-care institutions. In this American Orthopaedic Association (AOA) symposium report, the OSL leaders from 4 major academic medical institutions explain and reflect on their approaches to address their revenue deficits. Cost-reduction strategies, such as tightening budgets, adopting remote-work models, and limiting costs of human capital, were vital to stabilizing departmental finances at the onset of the pandemic, while strategies that focused on expanding surgical volume, such as those that improve efficiency in clinical and surgical settings, were important in growing revenue once elective procedures resumed. Institutional policy, payer administrative procedures, and the overall context of an ongoing public health crisis all placed limitations on recovery efforts, but engaging relevant stakeholders and working with available resources helped OSLs overcome these limitations. Due to clear strategic actions that were taken to address their deficits, each OSL represented in this AOA symposium saw substantial improvement in its year-end financial performance compared with its financial status at the end of the period of mandatory cessation of elective surgical cases.

Does urban isolation produce instability in a gliding mammal?
Authors: Marks Anita Jane , Goldingay Ross L
Published: August 2022

Small populations are at a higher risk of extinction and are likely to need management intervention. Successful management however often relies on sufficient long-term demographic data to determine whether apparent declines are natural fluctuations or rather the product of threatening processes. In this study we monitored a small urban population of squirrel gliders (Petaurus norfolcensis) in Queensland, Australia over a 16-year period. A reference population situated in a larger forest patch was also monitored to identify whether its demographic trends were similar. We found evidence of a decline within the small population but not the reference population over the monitoring period. We suggest the influence of multiple factors may have led to the decline, but ultimately the genetic condition of the small population may be responsible. Understanding demographic trends is important for providing context for management interventions of small populations, however identifying the causes of declines is needed for successful management. This species provides a useful case study for small urban populations, and particularly for arboreal mammals.
Reinfection risk and vaccination effectiveness against Omicron
Authors: Du Jiaxing , Zhao Yanji , He Daihai
Published: August 2022

Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant has spread worldwide rapidly with largely evading immunity. The effectiveness of antibodies produced by prior infections with other SARS-COV-2 lineages or by vaccination against Omicron raises concerns.
Natural infection induces strong protection against reinfection with the Alpha (B.1.1.7), Beta (B.1.351), and Delta (B.1.617.2) variants. When Omicron variant first emerged in South Africa, it is estimated that hazard ratio for reinfection versus prior infection was 2.39, much higher than 0.75 (wave2) and 0.71 (wave3) in south Africa. Based on several studies from UK and Qatar, there is a unified conclusion that Omicron induced a higher risk of reinfection compared with Delta and other previous variants. Protection against reinfection with Omicron range from 19% to 56% in different studies. Vaccine induced immunity usually peaks two weeks after second dose. After that, a substantial waning of VE is widely observed. For Delta and previous variants, VE against infection six months after second dose ranged from 53.8% to 77%. Estimates of VE against Omicron are gained from several countries, including England, Denmark, South Africa ,Canada and Israel. Genarally a substantial decrease of VE was observed as time flow, even negative VE was observed in Canada and England.

The immunoaffinity isolation of neuron-derived extracellular vesicles (NDEVs) from blood by targeting the neuronal protein L1CAM has been widely adopted to provide peripheral biomarkers for brain disorders. However, compelling evidence for the presence of L1CAM on NDEVs at the single-EV level has been missing. Here, we demonstrate that L1CAM co-localizes with EV-characteristic and neuronal markers in plasma EVs, and quantify the enrichment achieved after L1CAM immunoprecipitation, validating the NDEV isolation methodology.
Identifying key players in a network of child exploitation websites using Principal Component Analysis
Authors: Movahedi F. , Frank R.
Published: August 2022

One of the main objectives of this study is to help prioritize targets for law enforcement by analyzing online websites hosting child exploitation material and finding key players within. Key players are defined as the websites which display a combination of high connectivity and a lot of hardcore material and would provide the most disruption in a network if they were to be removed. In this study, various strategies based on Principal Component Analysis are presented to identify those nodes that act as the key players in an online child exploitation network. For evaluating the results of these strategies, we consider the results of various attack strategies. The measures for evaluation are the density, clustering coefficient, average path length, diameter and the number of connected components in the resulted network. The results show that the strategies proposed are more successful at reducing all of the outcome measures than existing strategies.
Fast Training of a Transformer for Global Multi-horizon Time Series Forecasting on Tensor Processing Units
Authors: García-Nava J. Luis , Flores Juan J. , Tellez Victor M. , Calderon Felix
Published: August 2022

Time Series Forecasting (TSF) is essential to key domains, and the transformer neural network has advanced the state-of-the-art on global, multi-horizon TSF benchmarks. The quadratic time and memory complexity of the vanilla transformer (VT) hinders its application to big data environments; therefore, multiple efficient variants of the VT that lower complexity via sparse self-attention have been proposed. However, less complex algorithms do not directly produce faster executions, and machine learning models for big data are typically trained on accelerators designed for dense-matrix computation that render slower performance with sparse matrices. To better compare the accuracy-speed trade-off of the VT and its variants, it is essential to test them on such accelerators. We implemented a cloud-based VT on Tensor Processing Units to address this task. Experiments on large-scale datasets show that our transformer outperforms two reference models on accuracy while reducing training times from hours to under two minutes.
Testosterone is associated with abdominal body composition derived from computed tomography: A large cross sectional study

Published: August 2022

To evaluate the association between serum testosterone and abdominal body composition based on abdominopelvic computed tomography (APCT) measurements after adjusting for individual metabolic syndrome components. We performed a cross-sectional study using subjects who underwent a general health examination with abdominopelvic computed tomography and testosterone measurements. Body composition was evaluated with APCT. To confirm an association between testosterone and abdominal body composition, we conducted linear regression analysis. The effect of abdominal body composition was adjusted for important clinical factors such as age, albumin, and metabolic components in the multivariable regression analysis. Overall, 1,453 subjects were included in the primary analysis. After adjustment for age, individual metabolic components, albumin, hemoglobin A1c, and C-reactive protein, we found that subcutaneous fat area index (β = -0.042, p<0.001), total abdominal muscle area index (β = 0.115, p<0.001), normal attenuation muscle area index (β = 0.070, p<0.001), and loge-transformed lower attenuation muscle area index (β = 0.140, p=0.002) had an association with loge-transformed testosterone level. After adjusting for individual metabolic syndrome components, testosterone was significantly associated with subcutaneous fat, but not visceral fat. In addition, testosterone was positively correlated with abdominal muscle regardless of qualitative features such as fat-rich and fat-free.

Published: August 2022

Nowadays, with significant climate change, the trend of environmental hazards is increasing. In the meantime, floods have shown a growing trend than other hazards. Haraz watershed in northern Iran is prone to floods due to the heavy rainfall with irregular pattern. Therefore, combining different methods and examining new approaches is an essential step in the development of methods in this field. In the present study, Analytical Network Process, Analytic Hierarchy Process and Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process models were combined with Ordered Weighted Average, Weighted Linear Combination, Local Weighted Linear Combination models to prepare a flood risk map. The performance of two new models, Weighted Multi-Criteria Analysis and Geo-Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution, was also evaluated in this field. The results of the models showed that in general the basin is in a moderate risk situation. Meanwhile, the south-eastern parts of the basin show a high flood risk situation. Also, by comparing the models, it was found that the combination of multi-criteria models and the use of Weighted Multi-Criteria Analysis and Geo-Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution models are very effective and efficient for preparing flood risk maps.

Authors: Shete Madhavi , Fernandes Julio
Published: August 2022

In the present investigation we report presence of N, S and Ti3+ in the TiO2 samples and surface exhibits acidic characteristics. Synthesized TiO2 samples were also found to be ferromagnetic in nature at room temperature and shows high photocatalytic activity in comparison to commercially available TiO2 (DP-25). Nanosize TiO2 with high surface area was obtained by simple sol – gel method of synthesis and during the synthesis hydrazine sulphate was used as fuel. Synthesized TiO2 was found to be with N and S doping and also surface defects were present due to cationic and anionic vacancies. The presence of defects were confirmed from the Raman, IR, SEM-EDAX, PL analysis. Presence of Ti3+ in the TiO2 samples was confirmed from the ESR and XPS Spectra. XPS also showed presence of nitrogen and sulphur doping in the TiO2 samples. Synthesized TiO2 possesses acidic surface and surface acidity was measured from the pyridine adsorption and NH3-TPD studies. Ferromagnetic behavior of the synthesized samples was confirmed from the VSM measurements. Synthesized samples were further studied for their photocatalytic activity towards methylene blue dye and 4-nitrophenol degradation and for photo-oxidation benmezene to phenol conversion.

Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a chronic psychiatric disorder that is associated with neuronal dysfunction. Recently, the autophagy pathway in the brain has become a target of investigation in this illness. Autophagy is a homeostatic process that serves as an intracellular quality control mechanism and a recycling pathway. It is activated under stress to prevent the accumulation of abnormal or dysfunctional cellular components including macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, and biomolecular complexes, and to facilitate protein recycling. Autophagy is a tightly regulated cellular process orchestrated by protein complexes. The initiation of autophagy is mediated by the ULK1 and VPS34 complexes. Initiation of autophagosome formation is regulated by the ULK1 complex, which contains the serine/threonine protein kinase ULK1 and its essential protein partners FIP200, ATG13 and ATG101. Upon activation, the ULK1 complex regulates the phosphorylation and activation of another kinase complex containing VPS34, the class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and its binding partners VPS15, BECLIN1 and ATG14L. In this study, we measured the expression of key regulatory proteins involved in these neuronal autophagy initiation complexes in postmortem dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of 22 pairs of SCZ and matched comparison subjects by Western blot analysis. Additionally, we measured two proteins, LC3BII and p62, that play a role in the formation of the autophagosome. In SCZ, we found decreased ULK1 expression (23%), increased p62 expression (25%), decreased p62 phosphorylation at serine 403 (27%), but no changes in VPS34 or LC3BII expression. Using co-immunoprecipitation with LC3BII, we found a 56% reduction of LC3BII–p62 interaction in SCZ. Additionally, we found increased p62-positive aggregates in SCZ brain. These findings suggest dysregulation of the formation of the autophagosome and dysfunction of the neuronal autophagy pathway in SCZ brain.

Published: August 2022

Introduction:
Electroencephalography (EEG) microstates are successive short time periods of stable scalp field potentials that represent spontaneous activation of brain resting-state networks. EEG microstates are assumed to mediate local activity patterns. To assess this hypothesis, we correlated momentary EEG microstate dynamics with the temporo-spectral evolution of electrocorticography (ECoG) and stereotactic EEG(SEEG) depth electrode recordings.
Methods
We analyzed resting-state data (5 min) from two participants with simultaneous noninvasive scalp EEG and invasive ECoG, and SEEG recordings. Data were recorded during the presurgical evaluation of pharmacoresistant epilepsusing subdural and intracranial electrodes. After standard preprocessing, we fitted microstate template maps to the scalp EEG data. Using covariance mapping with EEG microstate timelines and ECoG/SEEG temporo-spectral evolutions as input, we identified systematic changes in the activation of ECoG/SEEG local field potentials in different frequency bands (theta, alpha, beta, and high gamma) depending on the presence of a particular microstate class.
Results
We found a significant covariation of ECoG/SEEG spectral amplitudes with microstate timelines in all four frequency bands (p = .001, permutation test). The covariance patterns of the ECoG/SEEG electrodes during different microstates were similar for the two observed participants.
Discussion
To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate distinct activation/deactivation patterns of frequency-domain ECoG local field potentials associated with simultaneously present EEG microstates.

Background: Despite the clinical benefit with Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), patients with a viral hepatitis have been excluded from clinical trials because of safety concerns. The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence rate of adverse events (AEs) in patients with viral hepatitis who received ICIs for cancer treatment.Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective study in patients with cancer and concurrent hepatitis B or C, who had undergone treatment with ICI at MD Anderson Cancer Center from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2019.Results: Of the 1076 patients screened, we identified 33 with concurrent hepatitis. All 10 patients with HBV underwent concomitant antiviral therapy during ICI treatment. Sixteen of the 23 patients with HCV received it before the initiation of ICI. The median follow-up time was 33 months (95% CI, 23-45) and the median duration of ICI therapy was 3 months (IQR, 1.9-6.6). Of the 33 patients, 12 (39%) experienced irAEs (immune-related adverse events) of any grade, with 2 (6%) having grade 3 or higher. None of the patients developed hepatitis toxicities.Conclusion: ICIs may be a therapeutic option with an acceptable safety profile in patients with cancer and advanced liver disease.

Background: Acquired treatment resistance is a major problem in breast cancer management. Alterations in lipid metabolism have been proposed to contribute to tumor progression and the development of drug resistance. The present study aimed to identify the role of cholesteryl ester (CE) metabolism in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line response to cisplatin (CDDP) treatment in the acute setting. Methods: MCF-7 (luminal A), MDA-MB-231 (triple-negative) and CDDP-resistant MDA-MB-231 (MDACR) cell lines were grown in the presence or absence of CDDP in combination with atorvastatin (ATV), lipid depletion or low-density lipoprotein (LDL) loading and were analyzed by a variety of biochemical and radiometric techniques. Results: Co-administration of CDDP and ATV strongly reduced cell proliferation and viability to a greater extent than CDDP alone, especially in MDA-MB-231 cells. These findings were associated with reduced CE synthesis and storage in MDA-MB-231 cells. In MDACR cells, acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 1 (ACAT-1) was upregulated compared to naïve MDA-MB-231 cells and ATV treatment restored CDDP sensitivity, suggesting that aberrant ACAT-1 expression contributes to CDDP resistance in TNBC cells. Conclusions: These findings indicate that the elevated susceptibility of MDA-MB-231 cells to co-administration of CDDP and ATV, is associated with an increased reliance on CE availability. Our data from these cell culture-based studies supports the upregulation of cholesterol homeostasis as an adaptive response that contributes to aggressiveness and chemotherapy resistance.

Published: August 2022

Background
Uncommon Microascus cirrosus (M.cirrosus) species have been reported to cause growing subcutaneous and invasive fungal infections worldwide. To our knowledge, no comprehensive clinical characteristics and etiological identification in laboratory tests have been defined till now, notably, for fatal pulmonary infections in the crowd of patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
Methods
We studied the pulmonary infection due to a new M.cirrosus, analyzed other related cases retrospectively in our hospital and reviewed other reported cases. This isolated M.cirrosus was cultured and determined by morphological observation, antifungal susceptibility, multi-locus sequence analysis (MLST), whole genome sequencing, metagenomic next-generation sequencing(mNGS), and other analysis.
Results
This isolated M.cirrosus named M. cirrosus SZ 2021 was resistant to various therapies and accounted for the fatal pulmonary infection in the HSCT patient. Notably, M.cirrosus could be confirmed by mNGS in another two lung infections of HSCT patients. For this new isolated fungus, it had short chains of conidia without apical cysts for the Micrrosus genus, whereas growing faster and bigger on chocolate agar plate than Sabouraud’s agar. Furthermore, it was not sensitive to fluconazole, amphotericin B, 5-flucytosine, caspofungin and other drugs by drug sensitivity test in vitro, supporting its bad prognosis and a sharp increased colonies across the half month process of insufficient antifungal treatment. This isolate had not been correctly identified until the whole genome sequencing by NGS and MLST were finished, because of the poor knowledge of gene information on the genus. The whole nucleotide sequence (2.693 billion bases) of the genome from M. cirrosus SZ 2021 have been uploaded in NCBI database for the first time. In addition, its protein fingerprint has been presented by MALDI-TOF-MS.
Conclusions
M. cirrosus SZ 2021 is a potentially new genotype of M.cirrosus, which can cause fatal pulmonary infection in immunocompromised patients. These established complete laboratory tests facilitate its correct and rapid etiological diagnosis, especially for the culture independent rapid detection by mNGS.
Physicochemical characterization of texture-modified pumpkin by vacuum enzyme impregnation: Textural, chemical and image analysis

Published: August 2022

Texture-modified pumpkin was developed by using vacuum enzyme impregnation to soften texture to tolerable limits for the elderly population with swallowing and chewing difficulties. The impregnation process, and macrostructural and microstructural enzyme action, were explored by the laser light backscattering imaging technique and a microscopic study by digital image analysis. Texture was analyzed by a compression assay. The effect of enzyme treatment on antioxidant capacity and sugar content was evaluated and compared to the traditional cooking effect. Image analysis data demonstrated the effectiveness of the impregnation process and enzyme action on plant cell walls. Enzyme-treated samples at the end of the process had lower stiffness values with no fracture point, significantly greater antioxidant capacity and significantly lower total and reducing sugars contents than traditionally cooked pumpkins. The results herein obtained demonstrate the capability of using vacuum impregnation treatment with enzymes to soften pumpkins and their positive effects on antioxidant capacity and sugar content to develop safe and sensory-accepted texture-modified products for specific elderly populations.
