30 milled rice samples were collected from retailers in four states of malaysia. these samples were evaluated for eurotium spp. contaminations by direct plating on malt extract salt agar (mesa). all eurotium were isolated and identified based on morphology and nucleotide sequences of internal transcribed spacer 1 (its1) and its2 of the rdna. four eurotium species (e. rubrum, e. amstelodami, e. ...

background and aims. promoting remineralization is the ultimate goal of clinical prevention of caries lesion. the present in vitro study aimed to investigate the effect of grape seed extract (gse) on artificial enamel caries in primary human teeth. materials and methods. seventeen human sound primary incisors were sectioned mesiodistally. the tooth slices were placed in a demineralizing solutio...

thirty six wistar albino rats with implant induced endometriosis were randomly divided into six groups of six animals each. the rats in the first group received nothing and were euthanized at day 21. in the second group, rats received nothing and were euthanized at day 36. the third group received atorvastatin (atv; 5 mg kg-1 per day, orally) until 21 days from induction of endometriosis, and t...

Background and Objectives: Nowadays corn flakes are the most common form of breakfast cereals however, their vitamins are declined during the baking process. In this research, production of fortified corn flakes by Lactobacillus plantarum and L. reuteri, as well as incorporation of oat and malt fiber as prebiotics have been studied. Materials and Methods: Plackett-Burman statistical design was...

A number of hydrolyzing enzymes that are secreted from malt during brewing, including cell wall-hydrolyzing, saccharide-hydrolyzing, protein-degrading, lipid-hydrolyzing, and polyphenol and thiol-hydrolyzing enzymes, are expected to exist in an active form in waste from beer fermentation broth (WBFB). In this study, the existence of these enzymes was confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacry...

Malt extract is a highly viscous, rich in sugars, water-based solution. It is produced by means of vacuum evaporation of a sugar solution (mash) in the brewing industry. It is a natural flavour and colorant and is widely used in baking, confectionery, breakfast cereals, malt beverages, dairy products, sauces and as a caramel substitute. The difficult handling and dosing of that viscous liquid p...

effects of different carbon sources on growth and production of antifungal agent(s) by gymnopilus spectabilis were investigated. different carbon sources including; glucose, fructose, lactose, maltose, manitol and sucrose at the concentration of 10 g/l and slow releasing carbon sources including malt extract and soluble starch at the concentration of 2g/l were used. inhibition of spore germinat...

The use of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) in Morocco is still limited to food and feed despite the amplified demand by local industries for imported malt. This study aims evaluate 36 elite lines major grain physicochemical parameters malt quality traits. Analysis variance, Pearson correlation, principal component analysis (PCA), hierarchical cluster (HCA) were performed. results showed significant...
