  13. Patulin biodegradation and quality improvement of apple puree fermented with Byssochlamys nivea FF1-2

    • Food Bioscience

    • This study investigated the effects of FF1-2 on the quality of apple puree during the process of patulin degradation. Apple puree artificially contaminated with high-dose patulin (125, 250 and 500μg/mL) was fermented by FF1-2 for 10 days, and over 97% of patulin was degraded in the apple purees after fermentation, and the maximal degradation of patulin was 98.5%.

  18. Ochratoxin A-Induced Apoptosis of IPEC-J2 Cells through ROS-Mediated Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore Opening Pathway

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • With the purpose to explore the mechanisms associated with the intestinal toxicity of Ochratoxin A (OTA), an intestinal porcine epithelial cell line (IPEC-J2) was applied in this study as in vitro models for intestinal epithelium. The results confirmed that OTA induced IPEC-J2 cell toxicity by MTT assay and apoptosis by Hoechst 33258 staining and flow cytometer analysis.
