Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Pea protein fractions (albumin, glutelin, and globulin) were investigated for the influence of their interaction with curcumin on in vitro gastric protein digestibility. Dynamic light scattering analysis showed a decreased average particle size of the protein (0.25 mg/mL)/curcumin (2–100 μM) combinations. Turbidity and surface hydrophobicity analyses suggested the protein/curcumin complex formation via noncovalent interactions. Transmission electron microscopy revealed the formation of spherical nanocomplexes for albumin and globulin fractions and sheet-like structures for glutelin fraction with curcumin. Furthermore, curcumin did not alter the protein profiles, but at high concentration (100 μM), it differentially decreased the degree of hydrolysis of albumin, glutelin, and globulin by 76.6, 100, and 58.6%, respectively, indicating that the nature of the nanocomplexation hindered pepsin accessibility for protein hydrolysis. Therefore, this study enhances our understanding of how interactions between biomolecules in nanodelivery complexes and nutraceutical formulations influence the nutritional quality of plant-based proteins.

Teacher imitation

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.
