Abstract Red alga dulse contains xylan with β(1→3)/β(1→4) linkages. We previously prepared xylooligosaccharides (XOSs) from xylan; however, the product contained many d -xylose residues and fewer XOSs β(1→3) To improve efficiency of XOS production, we two recombinant endoxylanases Streptomyces thermogriseus (StXyl10 StXyl11). Comparing k cat / K m values for xylan, this value StXyl10 was approx...

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. 【Background】 Patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) suffer from poor exercise capacity due to impaired oxygenation or reduced cardiac output. However, the relationship between and physical functions remains unclear. 【Purpose】 The purpose this study is investigate in hypertension. 【Methods】 From February 2018 June 2020, 94 patie...

An extracellular β-glucosidase (E.C. 3.2.1.21), induced by cellulose in the mycelial form of human pathogen fungus Sporothrix schenckii, was purified to homogeneity using hydroxyapatite (HAp) adsorption chromatography in batch and Sephacryl S200-HR size exclusion chromatography. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 197 kDa by size exclusion chromatography with a subunit...

In this study 5, 10 and 15% β-Ca(3)(PO(4))(2)/Mg-Zn composites were prepared through powder metallurgy methods, and their corrosion behavior and mechanical properties were studied in simulated body fluid (SBF) at 37°C. The 10% β-Ca(3)(PO(4))(2)/Mg-Zn composite was selected for cytocompatibility assessment and in vivo biodegradation testing. The results identified the α-Mg, MgZn and β-Ca(3)(PO(4...

O-Perbenzoylated 4-phenyl-[C-(β-d-glucopyranosyl)formaldehyde]semicarbazone was prepared in the reaction of O-perbenzoylated β-d-glucopyranosyl cyanide and 4-phenylsemicarbazide in the presence of Raney-Ni. Acylation of O-perbenzoylated C-(β-d-glucopyranosyl)formaldehyde semicarbazone furnished the corresponding 4-acyl-[C-(β-d-glucopyranosyl)formaldehyde]semicarbazones. The reaction of O-perben...
