Modification of grass pea protein isolate (Lathyrus sativus L.) using high intensity ultrasound treatment: Structure and functional properties

In this study the effect of different high intensity ultrasound (HIU) amplitudes (25, 50 and 75%) and sonication times (5, 10 and 20 min) on the structure and functional properties of grass pea protein isolate (GPPI) was investigated. A higher…

Molecular Impacts of Dietary Exposure to Nanoplastics Combined or Not with Arsenic in the Caribbean Mangrove Oysters (Isognomon alatus)

Nanoplastics (NPs) are anthropogenic contaminants that raise concern, as they cross biological barriers. Metals’ adsorption on NPs’ surface also carries ecotoxicological risks to aquatic organisms. This study focuses on the impacts of three distinct NPs on the Caribbean oyster Isognomon…

Monitoring the formation kinetics of a bicontinuous microemulsion

The performance of bicontinuous microemulsions is usually assessed on the characteristics of the middle phase at equilibrium. However, applied to Enhanced Oil Recovery, such an evaluation would not be representative of the structure and composition of fluids in reservoir rocks.…
