Abstract
Phytic acid, a naturally occurring compound predominantly found in cereals and legumes, is the focus of this review. This review investigates its distribution across various food sources, elucidating its dual roles in foods. It also provides new insights into the change in phytic acid level during food storage and the evolving trends in phytic acid management. Although phytic acid can function as a potent color stabilizer, flavor enhancer, and preservative, its antinutritional effects in foods restrict its applications. In terms of management strategies, numerous treatments for degrading phytic acid have been reported, each with varying degradation efficacies and distinct mechanisms of action. These treatments encompass traditional methods, biological approaches, and emerging technologies. Traditional processing techniques such as soaking, milling, dehulling, heating, and germination appear to effectively reduce phytic acid levels in processed foods. Additionally, fermentation and phytase hydrolysis demonstrated significant potential for managing phytic acid in food processing. In the future, genetic modification, due to its high efficiency and minimal environmental impact, should be prioritized to downregulate the biosynthesis of phytic acid. The review also delves into the biosynthesis and metabolism of phytic acid and elaborates on the mitigation mechanism of phytic acid using biotechnology. The challenges in the application of phytic acid in the food industry were also discussed. This study contributes to a better understanding of the roles phytic acid plays in food and the sustainability and safety of the food industry.

[PMID: 39063307 PMCID: PMC11276126 DOI: 10.3390/foods13142223] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the effects of low-pressure cold plasma on the inactivation of Bacillus cereus vegetative cells and spores in an inert matrix (borosilicate glass slide) and in rice grains, using oxygen as ionization gas. Greater reductions in B. cereus counts were observed in vegetative cells rather than spores. The experimental data obtained show that both the power of the plasma treatment and the matrix proved to be determining factors in the inactivation of both the spores and vegetative cells of B. cereus. To characterize the inactivation of B. cereus, experimental data were accurately fitted to the Weibull model. A significant decrease in parameter "a", representing resistance to treatment, was confirmed with treatment intensification. Furthermore, significant differences in the "a" value were observed between spores in inert and food matrices, suggesting the additional protective role of the food matrix for B. cereus spores. These results demonstrate the importance of considering matrix effects in plasma treatment to ensure the effective inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms, particularly in foods with low water activity, such as rice. This approach contributes to mitigating the impact of foodborne illnesses caused by pathogenic microorganisms.

Abstract
Cold plasma treatment is an innovative technology in the food processing and preservation sectors. It is primarily employed to deactivate microorganisms and enzymes without heat and chemical additives; hence, it is often termed a "clean and green" technology. However, food quality and safety challenges may arise during cold plasma processing due to potential chemical interactions between the plasma reactive species and food components. This review aims to consolidate and discuss data on the impact of cold plasma on the chemical constituents and physical and functional properties of major food products, including dairy, meat, nuts, fruits, vegetables, and grains. We emphasize how cold plasma induces chemical modification of key food components, such as water, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, polyphenols, and volatile organic compounds. Additionally, we discuss changes in color, pH, and organoleptic properties induced by cold plasma treatment and their correlation with chemical modification. Current studies demonstrate that reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in cold plasma oxidize proteins, lipids, and bioactive compounds upon direct contact with the food matrix. Reductions in nutrients and bioactive compounds, including polyunsaturated fatty acids, sugars, polyphenols, and vitamins, have been observed in dairy products, vegetables, fruits, and beverages following cold plasma treatment. Furthermore, structural alterations and the generation of volatile and non-volatile oxidation products were observed, impacting the color, flavor, and texture of food products. However, the effects on dry foods, such as seeds and nuts, are comparatively less pronounced. Overall, this review highlights the drawbacks, challenges, and opportunities associated with cold plasma treatment in food processing.

Abstract
Non-thermal technologies, primarily employed for microbial inactivation and quality preservation in foods, have seen a surge in interest, with non-thermal plasma garnering particular attention. Cold plasma exhibits promising outcomes, including enhanced germination, improved functional and rheological properties, and microorganism destruction. This has sparked increased exploration across various domains, notably in hydration and rheological properties for creating new products. This review underscores the manifold benefits of applying cold plasma to diverse food materials, such as cereal and millet flours, and gums. Notable improvements encompass enhanced functionality, modified color parameters, altered rheological properties, and reduced anti-nutritional factors. The review delves into mechanisms like starch granule fragmentation, elucidating how these processes enhance the physical and structural properties of food materials. While promising for high-quality food development, overcoming challenges in scaling up production and addressing legal issues is essential for the technology's commercialization.

Efficient degradation and enhanced α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of apricot polysaccharides through non-thermal plasma assisted non-metallic Fenton reaction. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131103. [PMID: 38522683 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131103] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/26/2024]
Abstract
Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) was a commonly used non-thermal plasma (CP) technology. This paper aimed to enhance the biological activity of apricot polysaccharides (AP) by using dielectric barrier discharge (DBD-CP) assisted H2O2-VC Fenton reaction for degradation. The degradation conditions were optimized through response surface methodology. The molecular weight (Mw) of degraded apricot polysaccharides (DAP) was 19.71 kDa, which was 7.25 % of AP. The inhibition rate of DAP (2 mg/mL) was 82.8 ± 3.27 %, which was 106.87 % higher than that of AP. DBD-CP/H2O2-VC degradation changed the monosaccharide composition of AP and improved the linearity of polysaccharide chains. In addition, a novel apricot polysaccharide DAP-2 with a Mw of only 6.60 kDa was isolated from DAP. The repeating units of the main chain of DAP-2 were →4)-α-D-GalpA-(1 →, the branch chain was mainly composed of α-D-GalpA-(1 → 2)-α-L-Rhap-(1→ connected to O-3 position →3,4)-α-D-GalpA-(1→. The complex structure formed by the combination of DAP-2 and α-glucosidase was stable. DAP-2 had a higher α-glucosidase binding ability than the acarbose. These results suggested that DAP-2 had the potential to be developed as a potential hypoglycemic functional food and drug.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:3883-3893.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been a significant growth in demand for plant-derived protein, and this has been accompanied by an increasing need for sustainable animal-feed options. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of magnetic field-assisted solid fermentation (MSSF) on the in vitro protein digestibility (IVPD) and functional and structural characteristics of rapeseed meal (RSM) with a mutant strain of Bacillus subtilis. RESULTS Our investigation demonstrated that the MSSF nitrogen release rate reached 86.3% after 96 h of fermentation. The soluble protein and peptide content in magnetic field feremented rapeseed meal reached 29.34 and 34.49 mg mL-1 after simulated gastric digestion, and the content of soluble protein and peptide in MF-FRSM reached 61.81 and 69.85 mg mL-1 after simulated gastrointestinal digestion, which significantly increased (p > 0.05) compared with the fermented rapeseed meal (FRSM). Studies of different microstructures - using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) - and protein secondary structures have shown that the decline in intermolecular or intramolecular cross-linking leads to the relative dispersion of proteins and improves the rate of nitrogen release. The smaller number of disulfide bonds and conformational alterations suggests that the IVPD of RSM was improved. CONCLUSIONS Magnetic field-assisted solid fermentation can be applied to enhance the nutritional and protein digestibility of FRSM. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Soy protein gel can be developed into a variety of products, ranging from traditional food (e.g., tofu) to newly developed food (e.g., soy yogurt and meat analog). So far, efforts are still needed to be made on modifying the gel properties of soy protein for improving its sensory properties as animal protein-based food substitutes. Furthermore, there is always a need to regulate its gel properties for designing novel and tailored products of soy protein gels due to the fast-growing plant protein-based product market. This review gave an emphasis on the latest modification strategies and applications of gel properties of soy protein. The modifying methods of soy protein gel properties were reviewed from an aspect of composition or processing. Compositional modification included changing protein composition and gelling conditions and using additives, whereas processing strategies can be achieved through physical, chemical, and enzymatic treatments. Several compositional modification and processing strategies have been both proven to alter the gel properties of soy protein effectively. So far, soy protein gel has been applied in the field of food and biomedicine. In the future, more mechanistic studies on the modification methods are still needed to facilitate the full application of soy protein gel.

Abstract
Commercial sterilization plays an important role in extending the shelf-life of coconut milk. However, thermal sterilization affects the quality of coconut milk. This study was initiated to evaluate the effects of atmospheric cold plasma (ACP) treatment on some important quality parameters of coconut milk. ACP treatment had a slight effect on physicochemical characteristics and nutritional ingredients while it obviously reduced the colony count. Furthermore, ACP treatment obviously promoted the formation of lactone, an indispensable volatile substance in coconut milk. Insufficient or moderate ACP treatment had subtle effect on the sensory quality. Notably, moderate ACP treatment reduced the droplet size from 28.0 μm to 18.6 μm, and improved the stability during storage and centrifugation, especially at 60 kV 60 s. Overall, sterilization of coconut milk by ACP at 60 kV 60 s was the most ideal. This study can provide theoretical guidance for the application of ACP in liquid food.

Abstract
Water, soil, and food products contain pesticide residues. These residues result from excessive pesticides use, motivated by the fact that agricultural productivity can be increased by the use of these pesticides. The accumulation of these residues in the body can cause health problems, leading to food safety concerns. Cold plasma technology has been successfully employed in various applications, such as seed germination, bacterial inactivation, wound disinfection, surface sterilization, and pesticide degradation. In recent years, researchers have increasingly explored the effectiveness of cold plasma technology in the degradation of pesticide residues. Most studies have shown promising outcomes, encouraging further research and scaling-up for commercialization. This review summarizes the use of cold plasma as an emerging technology for pesticide degradation in terms of the plasma system and configuration. It also outlines the key findings in this area. The most frequently adopted plasma systems for each application are identified, and the mechanisms underlying pesticide degradation using cold plasma technology are discussed. The possible factors influencing pesticide degradation efficiency, challenges in research, and future trends are also discussed. This review demonstrates that despite the nascent nature of the technology, the use of cold plasma shows considerable potential in regards to pesticide residue degradation, particularly in food applications.

Abstract
Chickpea protein (CPI) is a promising dietary protein and potential substitute for soy protein in food product development due to its high protein content and low allergenicity. However, CPI possesses denser tertiary and quaternary structures and contains certain amount of anti-nutritional factors, both of which constrain its functional properties and digestibility. The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJ) as a non-thermal method for enhancing the functional characteristics and digestibility of CPI. In this study, the reactive oxygen and nitrogen species generated by the APPJ treatment led to protein oxidation and increased carbonyl and di-tyrosine contents. At the same time, the secondary, tertiary and microstructural structures of CPI were changed. The solubility, water holding capacity, fat absorption capacity, emulsifying capacity and foaming capacity of CPI were significantly improved after 30 s APPJ treatment, and a higher storage modulus in rheology was observed. Additionally, it was observed that the in vitro protein digestibility (IVPD) of APPJ-treated CPI increased significantly from 44.85 ± 0.6 % to 50.2 ± 0.59 % following in vitro simulated gastric and intestinal digestion, marking a noteworthy improvement of 11.93 %. These findings indicate that APPJ processing can enhance the functional and digestive properties of CPI through structural modification and expand its potential applications within the food industry.

Abstract
As an emerging food processing technology, cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has attracted great attention in the field of microbial inactivation. Although CAP has been proven to effectively inactivate a variety of foodborne pathogens, there is less research on the inactivation of Bacillus cereus, and the exact inactivation mechanism is still unclear. Elucidating the inactivation mechanism will help to develop and optimize this sterilization method, with the prospective application in industrialized food production. This study aims to explore the bactericidal efficacy difference between air and nitrogen CAP on B. cereus, a typical Gram-positive bacterium, and reveals the inactivation mechanism of CAP at the cellular and molecular level, by observing the change of the cell membrane, cell morphological damage, intracellular antioxidant enzyme activity and cellular biomacromolecules changes. The results showed that both air CAP and nitrogen CAP could effectively inactivate B. cereus, which was due to the reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) generated by the plasma causing bacterial death. The damage pathways of CAP on Gram-positive bacteria could be explained by disrupting the bacterial cell membrane and cell morphology, disturbing the intracellular redox homeostasis, and destroying biomacromolecules in the cells. The differences in active species generated by the plasma were the main reason for the different bactericidal efficiencies of air CAP and nitrogen CAP, where air CAP producing RONS with stronger oxidative capacity in a shorter time. This study indicates that air CAP is an effective, inexpensive and green technology for B. cereus inactivation, providing a basis for industrial application in food processing.

Inactivation mechanisms of atmospheric pressure plasma jet on Bacillus cereus spores and its application on low-water activity foods. Food Res Int 2023; 169:112867. [PMID: 37254316 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Revised: 04/15/2023] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Bacillus cereus spore is one of the most easily contaminated bacterial spores in low-water activity foods such as black pepper. Atmospheric-pressure plasma jet (APPJ) has emerged as an emerging and promising method for microbial inactivation in food processing. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of APPJ in inactivating spores under various treatment parameters and to examine the resulting alterations in spore structures and internal membrane properties. Meanwhile, the practical application of APPJ for spore inactivation in black pepper was also evaluated. The results indicated that air-APPJ had superior spore inactivation capability compared to N2 and O2-APPJ. After 20 min of APPJ treatment (50 L/min, 800 W, and 10 cm), the reduction in spore count (>2 log CFU/g) was significantly greater than that achieved by heat treatment (80℃). The damage of inner membranes was considered as the major reason of the dried spore inactivation by APPJ treatment. Moreover, it achieved a reduction in spore count of > 1 log CFU/g on inoculated black pepper without significantly affecting its color and flavor. Although the antioxidant activity of black pepper was slightly reduced, the overall quality of the product was not considerably affected by plasma treatment. This study concluded that APPJ is an effective technique for spore inactivation, offering promising potential for application in the decontamination of low-water activity foods.

Abstract
The hierarchical architecture of natural and processed starches with different surface and internal structures determines their final physicochemical properties. However, the oriented control of starch structure presents a significant challenge, and non-thermal plasma (cold plasma, CP) has gradually been used to design and tailor starch macromolecules, though without clear illustration. In this review, the multi-scale structure (i.e., chain-length distribution, crystal structure, lamellar structure, and particle surface) of starch is summarized by CP treatment. The plasma type, mode, medium gas and mechanism are also illustrated, as well as their sustainable food applications, such as in food taste, safety, and packaging. The effects of CP on the chain-length distribution, lamellar structure, amorphous zone, and particle surface/core of starch includes irregularity due to the complex of CP types, action modes, and reactive conditions. CP-induced chain breaks lead to short-chain distributions in starch, but this rule is no longer useful when CP is combined with other physical treatments. The degree but not type of starch crystals is indirectly influenced by CP through attacking the amorphous region. Furthermore, the CP-induced surface corrosion and channel disintegration of starch cause changes in functional properties for starch-related applications.

Abstract
The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of atmospheric cold plasma treatment on the nutritional, anti-nutritional, functional, morphological, and digestibility of guar seed (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) flour. Here, guar seed flour was kept inside the plasma reactor for 5 to 20 min at different power levels (10 & 20 kV). The cold plasma treatment (CPT) significantly (p < 0.05) reduced the carbohydrate (46.87 - 36.81 %), protein (27.15 - 25.88 %), and increased the WAC (1.89 - 2.91 g/g), OAC (1.18 - 2.17 g/g), FC (113 - 186.17 %), and pasting properties of guar seed flour. High-intensity plasma-treated samples (20 kV-20 min) contained lesser tannin, phytic acid, and saponin with reduced the nutritional value. The FTIR spectrum suggested that functional group formation or destruction might have occurred in the plasma-treated samples. Additionally, the crystallinity is reduced with increasing applied voltage or duration. The SEM analysis reveals that CPT resulted in the formation of rough surfaces with highly porous structures. On the other hand, CPT significantly reduced the trypsin inhibitor activity and had a minor impact on in-vitro protein digestibility except for the 20 kV-20 min treated sample. In PCA analysis, 10 kV-15 min treated samples exhibited better nutritional value, functional, and pasting properties with maximum impact of anti-nutritional factors. From the results, it can be concluded that treatment duration rather than the applied voltage plays a significant role in preserving the nutritional content.

Abstract
In the present study, the effects of the treatment of chia seeds with a cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet (CP) using argon as a working gas for different times (30, 60, and 120 s) on the rheological, structural, and microstructural properties of the freeze-dried mucilages at -54 °C were investigated. All mucilage gels showed pseudoplastic flow behavior, and CP treatment of chia seeds increased the viscosity of mucilages, probably due to the cross-linking between polymer molecules. The dynamic rheological analysis revealed that all mucilages were elastic gels and that CP treatment improved the elastic properties in a treatment time-dependent manner. Large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) results showed that freeze-dried mucilages showed Type I strain-thinning behavior. Similar to small amplitude oscillatory shear (SAOS) results, CP treatment has affected and improved the large deformation behavior of mucilages depending on treatment time. Meanwhile, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed the incorporation of hydroxyl groups onto the surface and the formation of C-O-C glycosidic bonds during plasma treatment. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) micrographs showed the formation of denser structures with CP treatment time. Regarding color properties, CP treatment decreased the lightness values of mucilages. Overall, this study showed that CP is an effective way to modify both the SAOS and LAOS properties of freeze-dried chia mucilage and improve viscosity.

Developments in Plant Proteins Production for Meat and Fish Analogues. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28072966.

Abstract
In recent years, there have been significant developments in plant proteins production for meat and fish analogues. Some of the key developments include the use of new plant protein sources such as soy, legumes, grains, potatoes, and seaweed, as well as insect proteins, leaf proteins, mushrooms, and microbial proteins. Furthermore, to improve the technological and functional properties of plant proteins, they can be subjected to traditional and unconventional treatments such as chemical (glycosylation, deamidation, phosphorylation, and acylation), physical (pulsed electric fields, ultrasound, high hydrostatic pressure, dynamic high-pressure treatment, and cold plasma), and biological (fermentation and enzymatic modification). To obtain the high quality and the desired texture of the food product, other ingredients besides proteins, such as water, fat, flavors, binders, dyes, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, also have to be used. The final product can be significantly influenced by the matrix composition, variety of ingredients, and water content, with the type of ingredients playing a role in either enhancing or constraining the desired texture of the food. There are several types of technologies used for meat and fish analogues production, including extrusion, shear cell technology, spinning, 3D printing, and others. Overall, the technologies used for meat and fish analogues production are constantly evolving as new innovations are developed and existing methods are improved. These developments have led to the creation of plant-based products that have a similar texture, taste, and nutritional profile to meat and fish, making them more appealing to consumers seeking alternatives to animal-based products.

Abstract
Plasma is considered by several researchers to be the fourth state of matter. Cold plasma has been highlighted as an alternative to thermal treatments because heat induces less degradation of thermolabile bioactive compounds, such as natural pigments. In this review, we provide a compilation of the current information about the effects of cold plasma on natural pigments, such as the changes caused by plasma to the molecules of chlorophylls, carotenoids, anthocyanins, and betalains. As a result of the literature review, it is noted that can degrade cell membrane and promote damage to pigment storage sites; thereby releasing pigments and increasing their content in the extracellular space. However, the reactive species contained in the cold plasma can cause degradation of the pigments. Cold plasma is a promising technology for extracting pigments; however, case-by-case optimization of the extraction process is required.

Abstract
The gel formation ability of freshwater surimi is weak, resulting in its poor flavor and quality. Atmospheric cold plasma (ACP), a widely developed non-thermal processing technology in the food industry, is considered to have potential applications in maintaining and improving the flavor characteristics of surimi gels. In this study, the effect of ACP on snakehead surimi gels flavor at different treatment times was investigated by sensory evaluation and gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) analysis. The results showed that ACP could better maintain and improve the original appearance and tissue state characteristics of surimi gels, scoring about 1-2 points higher than the ACP-untreated group. GC-IMS analysis demonstrated the obvious difference in the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) among the treatment groups. Specifically, the samples treated for 120 s with ACP exhibited the most unique aroma characteristics, which probably related to the highest thiobarbituric acid reactive substances values (73.28 μmol MDA/kg sample). Meanwhile, the reduced TCA-soluble peptides content indicated that ACP could inhibit protein degradation to maintaining the tissue state and flavor characteristics of the surimi gels. In conclusion, the advantages of ACP treatment, such as little damage to nutrients, and maximum retention of original sensory properties, provide new ideas for its application in the flavor characteristics of the snakehead surimi gels.

Abstract
The trypsin inhibitor (TI) is one of the most important anti-nutritive elements in soybeans. As a new nonthermal technology, dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) cold plasma has attracted increasing attention in food processing. In this research, we investigated the effect of dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) plasma treatment on soybean trypsin inhibitor content and its structure, evaluated TI toxicity and the safety of its degradation products after treatment with DBD technology in vitro and in vivo, and applied the technology to soybean milk, which was analyzed for quality. Using the statistical analysis of Student’s t-test, the results demonstrated that DBD plasma treatment significantly decreased the content of TI (33.8 kV at 1, 3, or 5 min, p < 0.05, p < 0.01, p < 0.001) and destroyed the secondary and tertiary structures of TI. TI was toxic to Caco-2 cells and could inhibit body weight gain, damage liver and kidney functions, and cause moderate or severe lesions in mouse organ tissues, whereas these phenomena were alleviated in mice treated with degradation products of TI after DBD plasma treatment under the optimal condition (33.8 kV at 5 min). The content of TI in DBD-treated soymilk was also significantly reduced (p < 0.001), while the acidity, alkalinity, conductivity, color, and amino acid composition of soymilk were not affected, and there were no statistical differences (p > 0.05). In summary, DBD plasma is a promising non-thermal processing technology used to eliminate TI from soybean products.

Abstract
Starch nanoparticles (SNPs) were produced from sweet potato starches by ultrasonic treatment combined with rapid nanoprecipitation. The starch concentration, ultrasonic time, and the ratio of starch solution to ethanol were optimized through dynamic light scattering (DLS) technique to obtain SNPs with a Z-average size of 64.51 ± 0.15 nm, poly dispersity index (PDI) of 0.23 ± 0.01. However, after freeze drying, the SNPs showed varying degrees of aggregation depending on the particle size of SNPs before freeze-drying. The smaller the particle size, the more serious the aggregation. Therefore, we tried to treat SNPs with dielectric barrier discharge cold plasma before freeze drying. Properties including morphological features, crystalline structure and apparent viscosity of various starches were measured by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and rheometer, respectively. The results showed that, after cold plasma (CP) treatment, the aggregation of SNPs during freeze drying was significantly inhibited. Compared to the native sweet potato starch, SNPs showed a higher relative crystallinity and a lower apparent viscosity. After CP treatment, the relative crystallinity of CP SNPs was further higher, and the apparent viscosity was lower. This work provides new ideas for the preparation of SNPs and could promote the development of sweet potato SNPs in the field of active ingredient delivery.
