The chicken and skin were studied by fluorescence spectroscopy . The three-dimensional fluorescence spectra of chicken and skin were measured, It was concluded that the optimal excitation wavelength corresponding to the fluorescence peak of 330 nm in chicken was 270 nm, and that of 475 nm and 520 nm was 370 nm. The optimal excitation wavelength corresponding to the 475 nm fluorescence peak of chicken skin was 370 nm. The fluorescence spectra of chicken skin and chicken excited by the wavelength of 370 nm were analyzed. The fluorescence peak came from myoglobin at 555 nm at the beginning of roasting, and the contribution of fluorescence peak came from oxygenated myoglobin at 540 nm and 580 nm as the baking time increased. When the baking time was more than 12 min, the fluorescence intensity of oxygenated myoglobin at 580 nm was close to zero. At this point, a considerable part of myoglobin had been converted into ferric myoglobin, while Fe 3+ in ferric myoglobin could not be absorbed by human body. At this point, the skin of chicken was no longer suitable for large amounts of consumption, while the relative performance of chicken was not obvious.

Dermanyssus gallinae is a significant haematophagous ectoparasite of laying hens. Despite the worldwide application of beta-cypermethrin for mite control, resistance to this compound has been developed by D. gallinae . P450s, as key detoxification enzymes involved in the metabolism of exogenous and endogenous chemical substances, have not been functionally characterized in D. gallinae . Here, the role of the P450s gene (Deg-CYP-3) of D. gallinae in acaricide resistance was studied. Firstly, P450s activities of the five beta-cypermethrin resistant strains (RR) against p-nitroanisole were significantly higher than that of the susceptible strain (RS), suggesting enhanced enzymatic activities might contribute to mite beta-cypermethrin resistance. Both mRNA expression level and DNA copy number of Deg-CYP-3 were significantly higher in RR than in RS, except for DK RR strain. Moreover, recombinant Deg-CYP-3 (rCYP-3) expressed in Escherichia coli displayed high enzymatic activity against p-nitroanisole, while Qulaton-100, acetone, isoacetone, avermectin, and ivermectin were found to inhibit this activity. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed the presence of Deg-CYP-3 protein in the digestive tract and Malpighian tubules. Finally, silencing of Deg-CYP-3 via RNAi resulted in decreased enzyme activity and increased susceptibility of PG RR strain to beta-cypermethrin, confirming that Deg-CYP-3 is crucial for beta-cypermethrin detoxification. RNAi also resulted in enhanced mortality, as well as reduced oviposition and fecundity in the PG RR strain. Collectively, these findings indicate that resistance of D. gallinae to beta-cypermethrin is associated with elevated P450s protein activity and increased Deg-CYP-3 expression levels. The results provide insights into the metabolic resistance mechanisms of D. gallinae and offer scientific guidance for the management and control of mite.

The phototoxicity of UV light limits the application of conventional azobenzene-based photoresponsive molecularly imprinted polymers in the biomedical field. This paper reports a tetra-ortho-methoxy-substituted azobenzene, N-(4-((4-amino-2,6-dimethoxyphenyl)diazenyl)-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)methacrylamide (ADDDM), whose photoswitching is induced by all visible-light irradiation (440 nm for trans form to cis form and 630 nm for cis form to trans form) in N,N-dimethylformamide and tetrahydrofuran (1:9, v/v). Using ADDDM as the monomer, a visible-light-responsive surface molecularly imprinted polymer (VSMIP) on silica microspheres was fabricated for acyclovir (ACV). VSMIP showed a higher drug loading capacity, better specificity, faster drug release rate, and faster photoisomerization rate constant to ACV than the corresponding visible-light-responsive surface molecularly nonimprinted polymer (VSNIP). The selectivity of VSMIP to ACV and competing materials (ganciclovir and triacetylganciclovir) was examined by ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, and the VSMIP showed excellent specificity of recognition toward ACV. The VSMIP can realize a visible-light-triggered (440/630 nm) release and uptake of ACV through chicken skin tissue (1 mm in thickness).

ABSTRACT Dermanyssus gallinae is a major hematophagous ectoparasite in layer hens. Although the acaricide β-cypermethrin has been used to control mites worldwide, D. gallinae has developed resistance to this compound. Carboxylesterases ( CarEs ) are important detoxification enzymes that confer resistance to β-cypermethrin in arthropods. However, CarEs associated with β-cypermethrin resistance in D. gallinae have not yet been functionally characterized. Here, we isolated a CarE gene ( Deg-CarE ) from D. gallinae and assayed its activity. The results revealed significantly higher expression of Deg-CarE in the β-cypermethrin-resistant strain ( RS ) than in the susceptible strain ( SS ) toward α-naphthyl acetate ( α-NA ) and β-naphthyl acetate ( β-NA ). These findings suggest that enhanced esterase activities might have contributed to β-cypermethrin resistance in D. gallinae . Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that Deg-CarE expression levels were significantly higher in adults than in other life stages. Although Deg-CarE was upregulated in the RS, significant differences in gene copy numbers were not observed. Additionally, Deg-CarE expression was significantly induced by β-cypermethrin in both the SS and RS. Moreover, silencing Deg-CarE via RNA interference decreased the enzyme activity and increased the susceptibility of the RS to β-cypermethrin, confirming that Deg-CarE is crucial for β-cypermethrin detoxification. Finally, recombinant Deg-CarE ( rDeg-CarE ) expressed in Escherichia coli displayed high enzymatic activity toward α/β-NA. However, metabolic analysis indicated that rDeg-CarE did not directly metabolize β-cypermethrin. The collective findings indicate that D. gallinae resistance to β-cypermethrin is associated with elevated CarEs protein activity and increased Deg-CarE expression levels. These findings provide insights into the metabolic resistance of D. gallinae and offer scientific guidance for the management and control of D. gallinae .
