Background: Enterocin-P of Enterococcus faecium P13 (EntP) is of great interest as a food preservative and medicine due to its non-toxicity and broad antimicrobial spectrum in various pH, as well as its excellent thermal stability. However, recombinant production of EntP is still in laboratory because of low productivity and complex purification process. Objectives: In this study, we aimed to ...

Abstract This work evaluated the functional properties of sesame protein fractions in order to determine their potential food applications. Sesame seed were prepared according solubility: water-soluble (albumin), salt-soluble (globulin), alkaline-soluble (glutelin) and ethanol-soluble (prolamin). Globulin was most abundant fraction, consisting 91% protein, followed by glutelin, albumin prolamin...

Background and Objectives: Fast proteolysis of cheese in ripening process may lead to the premature attack of casein, release of the majority of enzymes into the whey, and loss of cheese composition from curd to whey. In this study, the effect of liposomal Flavourzyme on proteolysis of Iranian white brined cheese, as well as on the yield and composition of whey and curd was investigated. Mater...

This study aimed to in vitro evaluate the impact of common gastrointestinal (GI) alterations appearing with aging on protein digestibility, and functional related properties, four different meats (chicken, turkey, pork beef). Thus, three elderly digestion models were stated as long altered GI conditions affected at oral (E1), gastric (E2) oral, intestinal stages (E3). Healthy adult also mimicke...

Biogeosciences Discussions This discussion paper is/has been under review for the journal Biogeosciences (BG). Please refer to the corresponding final paper in BG if available. Abstract Ocean acidification will likely have negative impacts on invertebrates producing skeletons composed of calcium carbonate. Skeletal solubility is partly controlled by the incorporation of " foreign " ions (such a...

background: recombinant proteins overexpressed in e. coli are usually deposited in inclusion bodies. cysteines in the protein contribute to this process. inter- and intra- molecular disulfide bonds in chitinase, a cysteine-rich protein, cause aggregation when the recombinant protein is overexpressed in e. coli. hence, aggregated proteins should be solubilized and allowed to refold to obtain nat...

in order to study the canopy temperature effect on protein and soluble sugar, oil percentage and yield of soybean in different planting dates, an experiment was conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications in karaj and moghan areas during 2012-13. the studied treatments were included cultivar (‘williams’ and ‘l17’) and planting date (5th of may, 5th o...
