Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Kiwifruit can trigger allergic reactions that can lead to death, causing public health concerns worldwide. In the present study, we treated kiwifruit samples with high-intensity ultrasound (20 kHz, 400 W, 50% duty cycle) for 0 to 16 min to evaluate its effect on the IgE binding capacity of kiwifruit allergen Act d 2, secondary structure and in-vitro digestibility of kiwifruit proteins. The changes in the protein solubility and microstructures of kiwifruit were also analyzed. The results showed that treatment with powerful ultrasound caused a significant disruption in the microstructure of kiwifruit tissues, leading to the changes in the secondary structures of proteins, including a loss of alpha-helixes and an increase in beta-sheet structures. These structural changes were due to the ultrasound treatment, especially 16 min of treatment, resulted in a 50% reduction in Act d 2 allergen content and significantly improved in-vitro digestibility up to 62% from the initial level of 35%. Furthermore, the solubility of the total proteins present in kiwifruit samples was significantly decreased by 20% after 16-min ultrasound processing. The results of this work showed that high-intensity ultrasound treatment has a potential application in reducing the allergenicity of kiwifruit or related products.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
