Solution properties of polygalacturonic acid.
1. The specimen of polygalacturonic acid used in these studies was shown to contain very little neutral sugar, methyl ester groups or ash, and only residues of galacturonic acid. Its electrophoretic homogeneity was examined in pyridine-acetic acid buffer at pH6.5 and in borate buffer at pH9.2. The distribution of effective particle weights was shown to be fairly narrow. 2. The pH-titration curv...
متن کاملAlduronic acid metabolism by bacteria.
In a previous study (Payne and Carlson, 1957), the metabolism of glucuronic acid and galacturonic acid by whole cells was found to proceed in a variety of enteric bacteria and plant pathogens as the result of substrate induced enzymes. Glucuronate utilization by dried cells of Serratia marcescens resulted in the production of an unidentified reducing acid which could be isolated by paper chroma...
متن کاملAcetaldehyde metabolism by wine lactic acid bacteria.
Acetaldehyde is a volatile flavor compound present in many fermented foods and is important in the production of red and white wines. Nine strains of the genera Lactobacillus and Oenococcus were able to metabolize acetaldehyde in a resting cell system, whereas two Pediococcus strains were not. Acetic acid and ethanol were produced from its degradation. A Lactobacillus and an Oenococcus were abl...
متن کاملRole of inorganic carbon in lactic acid bacteria metabolism
Capnophiles are bacteria stimulated by bicarbonate and CO2, the two major forms of inorganic carbon (IC) in physiological neutral liquids. Capnophiles are often pathogenic heterotrophs found in IC-rich ecological niches such as human cavities. Like capnophiles, the growth of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) such as Lactobacillus plantarum and Enterococcus faecalis is stimulated by IC. CO2 or HC are s...
متن کاملNitrogen metabolism in lactic acid bacteria from fruits: a review
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are fastidious microorganisms that require an exogenous source of amino acids or peptides, which are provided by the proteolysis of the proteins present in raw material. Generally nitrogenous compounds concentration in fruits and their derivate products are poor. Strains of Oenococcus oeni from wine show a proteolytic system that provides amino acids that are used for...
