- Abstract:
- ... Three fibrous corn wet-milling fractions, coarse fiber, fine fiber, and spent flake, were isolated. More highly valued uses are sought for these milling products, which are generally directed into the corn gluten feed product stream. Coarse fiber was further dissected into pericarp and aleurone layers. An alkaline hydrogen peroxide process was used to efficiently extract corn fiber gum (CFG) from ...

- Abstract:

A collection of 43 mutant strains of the bacterium Gordonia jacobaea was obtained by means of ethyl methanesulfonate treatment, and the strains were selected for their different pigmentation with respect to the wild-type strain. None of the mutants showed auxotrophy. They all showed good genetic stability and a growth rate similar to that of the parental strain. Canthaxanthin and other carotenoids ...

Negative ions [M - H(+)]- characteristic of six limonoid glucosides can be detected and quantified from selected ion monitoring chromatograms using carminic acid as an internal standard. The described method has been applied to the anal ...

The goal of our current research was to investigate the antioxidative effects of methanolic extracts from different parts of adlay seed and their antiproliferative activity in malignant human cells. The methanolic extracts from different parts of adlay seeds were from the hull (AHM), testa (ATM), bran (ABM), and polished adlay (PAM). AHM exhibited greater capacity to scavenge superoxide anion radi ...

- Abstract:
- ... The primary antifungal action of polygodial comes in part from its ability to function as a nonionic surfactant, disrupting the lipid-protein interface of integral proteins and denaturing their conformation. As a result, the antifungal mechanism of this sesquiterpene dialdehyde is associated with the membrane functions or derangement of the membrane. For example, the glucose-induced medium acidifi ...

The antioxidant effects of water extracts of roasted barley (WERB) were investigated under different roasting temperatures and compared with those of the water extracts of unroasted barley (WEUB). It was found that the Maillard reaction products increased upon increasing the roasting temperatures.

To investigate plasmin activity in cheese, we produced antibodies to bovine beta-casein with controlled specificity, suitable as markers of the integrity of the major bonds involved in its initial breakdown. Sixteen rabbits were immunized with synthetic substitutes for six plasmin-sensitive peptides. Antisera raised to the peptides (f20-39), (f40-56), (f94-113), (f184-202), and (f193-209) recogniz ...

One humic acid (HA) and two fulvic acids (FAs) of aquatic origin have been tested for their capacity to inhibit clastogenic events caused by maleic hydrazide (MH) in germinating seeds of the herbaceous plant species Allium cepa and Vicia faba. Either HA or FA at concentrations of 50 and 500 mg L(-1) was interacted with 10 mg L(-1) MH for 24 h before addition to the seeds. The evaluation of genotox ...
