Double Awards Triumph! Duo Li Duo Foods Founder Wang Duo-Li: Bringing Taiwanese Flavours to the World SeaPRwire

Double Awards Triumph! Duo Li Duo Foods Founder Wang Duo-Li: Bringing Taiwanese Flavours to the World

July 04, 2025 - (SeaPRwire) - Duo Li Duo Foods Corporation's "Hua Kui Gift Box" Triple-Roasted Seasoned Bamboo Salt was awarded the Silver Award at the 2025 Fun Food Taiwan Awards, praised by the judges as "a benchmark in cultural flavour interpretation with strong potential to promote gastronomic aesthetics." By fusing Eastern wellness wisdom with innovative packaging, it elevates salt into a medium of style and emotion. Renowned for its classic Taiwanese flavours and repeatedly lauded on the international stage, Duo Li Duo Foods Corporation, together with its affiliate Hai Yi Foods Corporation, has once again excelled at the 2025 Fun Food Taiwan awards. Hailing from Tainan, this all-natural health food group secured two honours in the "New Taste Wave" competition: the Whole Boneless Milkfish Tail and the Oiran Gift Box featuring Triple-Roasted Seasoned Bamboo Salt. Notably, the Triple-Roasted Seasoned Bamboo Salt won the Silver Award, a testament to the brand's unwavering commitment to "freshness, naturalness, health and flavour". Since its inception in 2020, the New Taste Wave FUN FOOD TAIWAN selection has championed three core themes—clean, high-value products; experiential design; and sustainable convenience. For 2025, the competition advanced to its 2.0 phase, emphasising "product evolution, carbon-reduction realisation and enriched experiences". Of the 119 companies and 264 entries that vied for recognition, just 90 products emerged victorious. Duo Li Duo's two entries, blending cultural significance with technological innovation, exemplify how Taiwanese smallholder spirit and sustainable practices can elevate culinary standards. Standing out among the finalists, the Oiran Gift Box's Triple-Roasted Seasoned Bamboo Salt series not only claimed Silver but was also praised by judges as "a benchmark for cultural flavour interpretation and gastronomic artistry". Beyond prioritising food safety and wellness, the product's design extends into ritualistic dining, eco-friendly packaging and multi-sensory experiences. By fusing Eastern medicinal wisdom with pioneering packaging, Duo Li Duo has proven that even table salt can convey style and evoke emotion. General Manager of Raw Materials Wu Li-Ling explains that the "creative union" of traditional triple-roasted bamboo salt and locally sourced dried fruits transforms seasoning into an olfactory ceremony. Harvested from Taiwan's native bamboo groves and repeatedly fired at high temperatures to enhance its mineral richness, the salt is paired with slow-dried mango and pineapple to preserve their fruit aromas—offering a dual feast of taste and culture. "We named the gift box 'Oiran' to symbolise feminine grace, fragrant memory and refined ritual," she adds. "The exterior features Taiwanese floral motifs alongside contemporary illustrations, creating a next-generation sensory gift that balances health and heartfelt warmth." Meanwhile, Hai Yi's signature offering—the Whole Boneless Milkfish Tail—also received acclaim. By removing every pin bone while preserving the fish's original form, and employing a symbiotic aquaculture model off the Tainan coast—where brackish ponds and grazing sheep coexist—the company has fashioned a micro-ecosystem benefiting fish, grass and livestock alike. Designed for versatility, the product can be steamed, pan-fried or air-fried, each method highlighting the milkfish's succulent texture and rich flavour, aligning perfectly with modern expectations of health, safety and environmental stewardship. From humble beginnings in night markets, Duo Li Duo Foods Corporation has adhered to the credo "delivering the purest delight", minimising processing and shunning artificial colours and preservatives. Its portfolio—ranging from dried fruits and bamboo salt to premium seafood—has successfully penetrated markets in Japan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. Looking ahead, both Duo Li Duo and Hai Yi will pursue further accolades at international competitions such as Belgium's iTQi Superior Taste Award, the UK's Great Taste Awards and Monde Selection Gold, while showcasing at leading trade fairs including Paris SIAL, Germany's ANUGA, Tokyo's Foodex Japan and the US's Natural Products Expo. Founder Wang Duo Li reflects, "Standing out from nearly three hundred outstanding entries across Taiwan reaffirms our team's dedication to local farmers, uncompromising quality and sustainable growth. We believe the simplest ingredients are often the rarest; by honouring original flavours and meticulous craftsmanship, we can rekindle consumers' connection to the land. Duo Li Duo is more than a food producer—we are building an innovative culinary movement rooted in Taiwan yet spoken in a global tongue." Looking to the future, Duo Li Duo and Hai Yi have launched a series of international expansion initiatives. In partnership with like-minded global collaborators, they will focus on developing new bamboo-salt-and-dried-fruit flavours, low-sodium seasonings with seasonal ingredients, and the digitisation of flavour-based cultural assets. Their ambition is for every Duo Li Duo product to serve as a delicious bridge between Taiwanese terroir, cultural heritage and consumers around the world.

云顶新耀公布EVER001-1b/2a期阶段性数据 专家看好其作为新一代BTK疗法的潜力

香港,2025年7月3日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 7月1日,云顶新耀(HKEX: 1952.HK)公布其自主研发的共价可逆BTK抑制剂EVER001在治疗原发性膜性肾病(pMN)的1b/2a期临床研究中取得最新数据。结果显示,EVER001在延长随访期内继续展现良好的免疫学缓解、蛋白尿改善和安全性,进一步验证其作为创新靶向疗法在自身免疫性肾病治疗中的潜力。本次公布的数据截至2025年3月21日,覆盖了更多患者更长期的数据,其中低剂量组11名患者随访至52周,高剂量组分别有16名和12名患者完成了24周和36周治疗,并有7名患者随访至52周。此外,EVER001的安全性与耐受性良好,相关不良事件多为轻至中度,且为短暂性反应。这些数据进一步支持EVER001具有治疗以蛋白尿为特征的自身免疫性肾小球疾病的潜力。作为新一代BTK抑制剂,EVER001具有共价可逆结合机制、更强的靶点选择性、更少的脱靶毒性以及口服便利等优势,或将成为对pMN在内的多种自身免疫性肾病的更优治疗选择。当前全球尚无针对pMN获批的靶向治疗药物,且超过三成患者对现有方案无应答,疗效有限且复发率高。EVER001的持续积极数据,为填补该领域"无药可选"的全球空白带来希望。在近日举行的"EVER001最新临床数据解读会"上,斯坦福大学医学中心肾病科教授、斯坦福肾小球疾病中心主任Richard Lafayette教授指出,当前pMN的治疗仍主要依赖激素、钙调神经磷酸酶抑制剂、CD20单抗等超适应症药物,在疗效、安全性及患者依从性方面均存在显著限制。他认为,EVER001具备起效快、缓解持久、耐受性良好及口服便利等优势,有望为临床提供更精准、更可控的治疗新选择。同时,BTK抑制剂作为机制明确的靶向药物,在IgA肾病、狼疮性肾炎、微小病变病(MCD)、局灶节段性肾小球硬化(FSGS)等多种自身免疫性肾病中亦展现出广泛适应症拓展潜力,全球潜在受益患者或将达数百万。他建议,基于现有积极数据,可直接与美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)沟通,启动三期临床研究,并同步与中国国家药监局(CDE)展开相关沟通。云顶新耀首席执行官罗永庆表示:"我们很高兴看到EVER001在1b/2a期研究中依然展现出令人鼓舞的免疫学缓解和临床缓解,以及良好的安全性和耐受性。作为潜在的同类最佳产品,EVER001具有共价可逆的优势、较好的选择性、较强的靶点结合能力、以及较少的脱靶毒性等,对包括原发性膜性肾病在内的多种自身免疫性肾病治疗的巨大潜力。我们将继续加速推进EVER001的全球开发,以期更快地满足患者迫切的临床需求。"云顶新耀表示,基于当前EVER001的最新临床数据,公司已启动与美国和中国监管机构的积极沟通,制定快速可行的临床研发计划,尽快开展关键性三期研究。同时,也正与多家国际潜在合作伙伴接洽,推动其全球开发和商业化布局加速落地。 Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

自美国首个独立日以来,气候发生了怎样的变化? Latest News

自美国首个独立日以来,气候发生了怎样的变化?

(SeaPRwire) - 1776年7月4日,聚集在费城通过《独立宣言》的开国元勋们选择了一个宜人的日子来完成他们的工作。那是一个星期四,根据弗吉尼亚州的托马斯·杰斐逊(Thomas Jefferson)的每日记录,早上6点的温度是68°F,下午1点上升到稍暖但仍然舒适的76°F。 当时的地球生态系统更适合那种温暖宜人的日子,而不是我们21世纪所经历的酷热。正是最近,科学家们首次将包括18世纪晚期在内的地质时代定义为全新世——一个始于11,700年前并仍在持续的时期。全新世最初气候温和,大气碳含量约为280 ppm(百万分之)——足以使地球保持温暖而不至于闷热。北美洲的森林——或占该大陆46%的面积——被吸收碳的树木覆盖,进一步帮助调节气候。如果说有什么不同的话,地球当时是为寒冷而校准的。第一个独立日发生在被称为小冰期的时期,该时期从1300年持续到1850年,北美洲的温度比千年平均水平下降了1°C到2°C(1.8°F到3.6°F)。 “17世纪(比平均水平)要冷得多,” 俄克拉荷马大学(University of Oklahoma)古典文学教授、圣达菲研究所(Santa Fe Institute)教员凯尔·哈珀(Kyle Harper)说。“18世纪极端程度稍低,但仍属于小冰期的一部分。19世纪开始变得更冷了一段时间。然后,当然,它逆转了。” 这种转变——我们世界气候的彻底重塑——在很大程度上归因于人类,也正是这种转变使得今天的独立日与249年前的独立日如此不同。 在大部分改变气候的人类活动之前的小冰期,其原因在于一系列火山爆发,它们向大气中释放了遮蔽阳光的雾霾,以及太阳活动低谷期——或太阳活动减弱的时期——从1280年到1830年间间歇性发生。“太阳并不是一颗完全恒定的恒星,”哈珀说。“太阳发电机本身的功率正在变化。”这些因素导致了大西洋洋流的转变,进一步促进了降温。 当然,小冰期期间的低温并非持续不变。一如既往,日常天气与几十年或几百年间的气候截然不同,在美国建国初期也有很多酷热的日子。 “18世纪70年代和80年代的某些夏天仍然非常炎热,”哈珀说。“1787年在费城起草宪法时,天气热得像地狱一样。” 人类将使这种热度变得更常见——也更强烈。1760年,工业革命——一个工厂建设和碳排放爆炸性增长的时期——在欧洲和北美开始,向天空排放温室气体,抵消了使地球相对凉爽的自然力量。与此同时,世界各地大片森林被砍伐并付之一炬,为农业腾出空间。这种被称为“刀耕火种”的耕作方式实际上早在农业出现时就开始了,尽管在北美直到1500年欧洲定居者抵达后才真正开始。该大陆三分之一的森林已经消失。在亚马逊地区,20%的森林已被砍伐。这不仅使数亿英亩的碳吸收树木不再循环,而且在焚烧多余树木和周围灌木时,还会向天空排放更多碳。 “树木是巨大的碳储存库,”哈珀说。“你把一个活的、含有大量碳的东西拿来烧掉,就会向大气中释放二氧化碳。我们累计砍伐的树木百分比肯定会影响地球系统。” 在过去两个半世纪的时间里,这些刀耕火种的做法,加上燃煤工厂和内燃机,已向空气中释放了约1.5万亿吨二氧化碳,根据National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)的数据。这使得大气不堪重负,根据NOAA的数据,二氧化碳水平从殖民时期的280 ppm上升到2024年的422.8 ppm。随之,气温飙升。去年,地球比19世纪后期正式记录开始时暖和了2.65°F(1.47°C),根据NASA和NOAA的数据——而且预计问题只会变得更糟。 “一度意味着什么?两度又意味着什么?”哈珀问道。“两度,当你说的是全球平均温度时,是一个巨大的变化。而除此之外,如果你谈论四度——那真的就像一个不同的星球了。” 近250年前,一小群人在这颗星球的一小块土地上,升起了一个新国家的旗帜。今天,那个国家——以及全球的同行——正面临着美国殖民者无法预见的生存危机。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
