    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • A QuEChERS-type method without matrix interference was designed and developed to determine organophosphorus pesticide residues in edible vegetable oils, based on dispersive solid-phase extraction with cleanup using UiO-66 as sorbent. Microporous UiO-66 directly and selectively adsorbed organophosphorus pesticides and excluded interfering compounds. Clean analytes were obtained by elution and analyzed using gas chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry.

  12. Effects of antibiotic residues in milk on growth, ruminal fermentation, and microbial community of preweaning dairy calves

    • Journal of Dairy Science

    • The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of antibiotic residues in milk on growth, ruminal fermentation, and microbial community of dairy calves in their first 35 d of age. Twenty newborn Holstein bull calves were assigned to 1 of 2 treatments equally: milk replacer without antibiotics (control) and milk replacer plus 4 antibiotics: 0.024 mg/L of penicillin, 0.025 mg/L of streptomycin, 0.1 mg/L of tetracycline, and 0.33 mg/L of ceftiofur (ANT).

  13. pahE, a Functional Marker Gene for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacteria [Environmental Microbiology]

    • Applied and Environmental Microbiology

    • The characterization of native polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-degrading bacteria is significant for understanding the PAH degradation process in the natural environment and developing effective remediation technologies. Most previous investigations of PAH-degrading bacteria in environmental samples employ pahAc, which encodes the α-subunit of PAH ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase, as a functional marker gene.

  23. [ASAP] Purification and Characterization of a Cadmium-Binding Protein from Lentinula edodes

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • Many organisms possess the ability to produce metal-binding proteins to absorb cadmium. Metallothioneins, an important family of cysteine-rich metal-binding proteins, have been isolated and well characterized. However, Lentinula edodes may have a different type of cadmium-binding protein that contains fewer cysteine residues. In the present study, we purified a cadmium-binding protein from L.
