Reduction of dehydroascorbic acid at low pH.
Ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid are unstable in aqueous solution in the presence of copper and iron ions, causing problems in the routine analysis of vitamin C. Their stability can be improved by lowering the pH below 2, preferably with metaphosphoric acid. Dehydroascorbic acid, an oxidised form of vitamin C, gives a relatively low response on the majority of chromatographic detectors, a...
متن کاملATP stimulates lysosomal sulphate transport at neutral pH: evidence for phosphorylation of the lysosomal sulphate carrier.
ATP markedly stimulated sulphate uptake by rat liver lysosomes that had been treated with N-ethylmaleimide to block the effects of the lysosomal proton-translocating ATPase (H+-ATPase). Maximal stimulation required millimolar concentrations of ATP and neutral buffer pH. ATP-stimulated transport exhibited saturation kinetics with a Km of 175 microM, identical with the Km for lysosomal sulphate u...
متن کاملPhotosynthetic Sulphate Reduction
Plants assimilate inorganic sulphate for the bio synthesis of sulphur containing compounds. The enzymes required for reduction are found pre dominantly in the plastids which provide the necessary energy and the reductants. Sulphate re duction like nitrate or carbon dioxide assimilation is endergonic; for comparison, N 0 3 reduction to ammonia requires +347 kJ mol1 and C 0 2 re duction +478 ...
متن کاملMicrobial lipolysis at low temperatures.
It was found that lipase production during the growth of Pseudomonas fluorescens was not a function of the total number of bacteria. The optimal temperatures for bacterial growth and lipase production were determined as 20 and 8 degrees C, respectively. The lipolytic activity was studied in emulsions of olive oil at temperatures ranging from +8 to -30 degrees C. After an initially rapid lipolys...
متن کاملLow pH, high salinity: too much for Microbial Fuel Cells?
Twelve single chambered, air-cathode Tubular Microbial Fuel Cells (TMFCs) have been filled up with fruit and vegetable residues. The anodes were realized by means of a carbon fiber brush, while the cathodes were realized through a graphite-based porous ceramic disk with Nafion membranes (117 Dupont). The performances in terms of polarization curves and power production were assessed according t...
