The quality of peanut protein prepared under different ethanol processing conditions varies, leading to differences in protein properties and subsequently in the functional characteristics and applications of the protein products. Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the preparation conditions and analyze the functional properties of the peanut proteins. The protein optimized for product yield, designated as D1, was obtained under the conditions of 75.00% volume fraction, 35.00 ℃ extraction temperature, and 55.45 min extraction time, resulting in a product yield of 87.82% and a protein content of 58.02%. The protein optimized for protein content, designated as D2, was prepared with a 67.12% volume fraction, 42.02 ℃ extraction temperature, and 58.28 min extraction time, achieving a protein content of 61.10% and a product yield of 86.08%. Compared with control peanut (CP), the protein content of D1 and D2 increased by 5.72% and 8.80% respectively. Improvements were observed in foaming capacity, emulsifying properties, water and oil retention, and gel-forming abilities. The particle size of D1 and D2 protein products was reduced, while the contents of albumin and conarachin dissolved in water increased. Additionally, surface hydrophobicity increased, and interfacial tension decreased, leading to significant improvements in the functional properties of peanut proteins.

Objective To study the DNA methylation of nucleated cells in peripheral blood of patients died from anaphylactic shock caused by cephalosporin drugs and to provide a new research direction and basis for the forensic diagnosis of shock caused by drug hypersensitiveness. Methods Methylation microarray was used to detect DNA methylation of nucleated cells in peripheral blood of patients died from anaphylactic shock caused by cephalosporin drugs and normal subjects. Sequencing data and chip data were analyzed for differences in DNA methylation using R language methylkit, ChAMP package. Random forest algorithm was used to evaluate the importance of the DNA methylation differential sites. Results Differential sites of DNA methylation highly associated with anaphylaxis caused by cephalosporin drugs were obtained at loci such as ETS1, PRR23B and GNAS. Conclusion Cephalosporin allergy is associated with DNA methylation, and DNA methylation may be a new strategy for forensic identification of anaphylactic shock and death.
