Ferulic acid and EGCG alter the structural characteristics of ovalbumin and its application in mineral loading

This study aims to fabricate mineral-loading nanocarriers using natural materials. The interaction patterns between ovalbumin (OVA) and four water-soluble polyphenols, namely ferulic acid (FA), (-)-Epigallo-catechin 3-gallate (EGCG), gallic acid (GA) and epicatechin (EC), were investigated. Results showed that the optimised conditions for preparing stable OVA–polyphenol complexes are at the OVA–polyphenol ratio of 4:1 at pH 6, under which OVA–FA and OVA–EGCG showed the highest stability and mineral-loading capacity among four OVA–polyphenol complexes. The fluorescence results indicated that the addition of EGCG and FA induced a significant fluorescence quenching to OVA. The interaction between OVA and polyphenols involved hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interaction and electrostatic interaction. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis suggested that both FA and EGCG enhanced the stability and orderliness of the structure of OVA. The transmission electron microscopy images also exhibited the spherical structure of OVA after the addition of FA and EGCG. Furthermore, scanning electron microscope–energy dispersive X-ray spectrum results suggested that OVA–FA and OVA–EGCG complexes were better mineral carriers than OVA–GA and OVA–EC. This study may serve as the theoretical support for the promising application of OVA in the fabrication of mineral-loading nanocarriers in functional food and pharmaceutic.

SiO2对CaO-Fe2O3熔体结晶矿物组成及显微结构的影响

摘要：由于近年来低品位铁矿石的使用量增加，导致烧结过程中SiO2含量升高。SiO2是烧结矿中主要的脉石成分，其含量的变化与烧结矿最终质量密切相关。运用X射线衍射、光学显微镜和SEM-EDS方法研究了SiO2对CaO-Fe2O3熔体结晶矿物组成及显微结构的影响。研究结果表明，随着SiO2含量的增加，CaO-Fe2O3-SiO2熔体结晶产物中CaFe2O4(CF)含量减少而富铁铁酸钙(SFC)含量增加，CaFe2O4和SFC分别以块状和板条状析出，SFC的晶体结构随着SiO2含量的增加从Ca36Fe144O25-2向SFCA-I转变；当SiO2的质量分数超过3.0%时，椭圆状的Ca2SiO4（C2S）从熔体中结晶，其含量随SiO2含量的增加而增加，另有大量圆点状玻璃相分布于铁酸钙基体表面。     

老矿山残矿资源回收方案设计中三维探测及建模技术的应用

目前我国绝大多数中小型老矿山残矿回收面临一系列问题，包括资料缺失无法准确判定老采空区及剩余资源位置，无法准确掌握剩余资源形态及可回收量，回收方案设计与实际资源相差较大等。通过将三维探测及建模技术应用于老矿山残矿资源精准定位及回收方案设计中，有助于解决以上问题。以福建浦城屏峰硫铅锌矿为例，通过对老采空区采用三维激光扫描构建采空区三维模型，结合三维建模计算，构建了目前可回收的剩余资源三维模型。通过模型划分及切割，按照矿体实际形态，在三维模型中布设采切及穿孔工程，并将其导入平面施工图中，不仅可以减少设计工作量，而且能够精准匹配矿体，减少设计偏差。由于周边存在大量老采空区，为保障安全，在采空区及剩余资源精准三维模型的基础上，制定了采空区稳定性监测方案，布设了监测传感器，保障了资源回收安全。     

Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons (MOSH/MOAH) in Edible Oils and Possible Minimization by Deodorization Through the Example of Cocoa Butter

Mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) are present in many fats and oils as well as foods prepared thereof. A survey of mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) and mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH) in different types of vegetable fats and oils is reported. Contents of MOSH/MOAH were quantified using liquid chromatography online‐coupled to gas chromatography with flame‐ionization detection (LC‐GC‐FID). Cocoa butter (n = 142) showed levels from <LOQ (2.5 mg kg^?1) to 162 mg kg^?1 ΣMOSH (sum of C10–C50) and <LOQ to 55 mg kg^?1 ΣMOAH, in palm oil (n = 21) ΣMOSH were quantified from <LOQ to 124 mg kg^?1 and ΣMOAH from <LOQ to 39 mg kg^?1. Sunflower oil showed lower levels: ΣMOSH were determined in the range of <LOQ to 17 mg kg^?1 and MOAH were not observed at all. A possible influence of deodorization and a subsequent minimization of MOSH/MOAH was investigated. Systematic model‐experiments were performed on laboratory scale using spiked cocoa butter. Significant minimization of volatile MOH subfractions ≤C24 were observed at a deodorization temperature of 210 °C. Deodorization can be considered as an important processing step to reduce or even remove volatile MOSH/MOAH ≤C24. Practical Applications: Regardless of their possible entry routes into the food chain, volatile fractions of MOSH/MOAH can be removed by deodorizing vegetable fats and oils. This model‐study identifies the temperatures of deodorization that provide a significant improvement toward minimization of undesired MOSH/MOAH.     

Investigation of the energy-size reduction and mineral liberation of raw coal in the Hardgrove mill

Raw coal was ground in a Hardgrove mill, and mineral liberation from coal was investigated by float-sink test and electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA). Based on EPMA, associated conditions of mineral were determined. Analyses of energy-size reduction show that energy efficiency decreases with time. For +0.074 mm progenies, yields of particles in ?1.5 g.cm^?3 decrease with the increase of size and time, and products in +1.8 g.cm^?3 show the opposite trend. EPMA of 0.25–0.125 mm, 1.5–1.8 g.cm^?3 products ground for 10 min indicates that only part of minerals are liberated. For ?0.074 mm products, the yield of particles in ?1.5 g.cm^?3 decreases by 23.36% in last several minutes, but ash content of +1.8 g.cm^?3 also decreases by 13.18%. Since breakage of raw coal in last 9 min does not reduce particle size obviously, and liberation degree cannot be improved dramatically, closed grinding of 10 min in Hardgrove mill is proper to balance the size reduction and mineral liberation.
