Massively parallel sequencing of maternal cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is widely used to test fetal genetic abnormalities in non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). However, sequencing-based approaches are still of high cost. Building upon previous knowledge that placenta, the main source of fetal
The objective of the present study was to investigate the connections between lipid compositions and the digestion and absorption differences of different lipids. Five typical edible oils (palm oil, PO; leaf lard oil, LO; rapeseed oil, RO; sunflower oil, SO;

The digestion fates of different edible oils are different. The objective of this study was to understand the influences of lipid composition on their digestion fates, and investigate the roles of bile salts (BS) played in emulsified lipid system (whey
Laminaria japonica L. is among the most commonly consumed seaweeds in northeast Asia. In the present study, L. japonica essential oil (LJEO) was extracted by microwave-hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy. LJEO contained 21 volatile compounds, comprising
Growth factors promote plasticity in injured brain and improve impaired functions. For clinical application, efficient approaches for growth factor delivery into the brain are necessary. Poly(ester amide) (PEA)-derived microspheres (MS) could serve as vehicles due to their thermal and mechanical
