Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Heat or Heat-Xylose Processing on Nitrogen Fractions and in Situ/In Vitro Ruminal and Post-Ruminal Protein Disappearance of Guar MealHossein Jahani-Azizabadi, Mohsen Danesh Mesgaran, Ali Reza Vakili et al.Problem statement: Guar meal is a by-product consisting of hull and germ and is mostly used as a protein source in poultry and ruminant rations. The aim was to determine the effect of heat or heat-xylose processing on nitrogen fractions, in situ ruminal degradation parameters and in situ/in vitro ruminal and post-ruminal disappearance of guar meal. Approach: Samples were intact … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 8,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProduction of Xylitol from Agricultural Waste by Enzymatic MethodsMarie K. Walsh, Hussein Fadhil Khliaf, Khalida A. ShakirEnzyme catalyzed production of xylose from autoclaved and non-autoclaved wheat straw was conducted followed by bioconversion of xylose to xylitol using a Crude preparation of Xylose Reductase (CXR) from Candida guillermondii. Ground wheat straw (autoclaved and non autoclaved) was treated at 40 and 50°C for up to 9 h at pH 4.5 with various concentrations of xylanase (12.4 to 37.2 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2018 · 9,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrasonic Microwave Assisted Extraction, Chemical Characterization and Antioxidant Activity of Polysaccharides from Fig LeavesBaikangzhe Zheng, Yang Miao, Yi Zhou et al.This study employed ultrasonic-microwave-assisted extraction (UMAE) to isolate water-soluble polysaccharides from fig (Ficus carica L.) leaves (FLPs). Polysaccharide yield was used as the primary index to evaluate extraction efficiency. The effects of material-liquid ratio, microwave power, extraction temperature, and extraction time on polysaccharide yield were systematically investigated through single-factor experiments, followed by response surface methodology optimization. Structural characterization and antioxidant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 3 Mar 2026 · 1,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation, Characterization and Antioxidant Activity of a Novel Acetylated Polysaccharide from Flammulina VelutipesYingyun Peng, Han Jiang, Yufeng Wu et al.In this study, a novel polysaccharide FVP2a wasextracted and purified from F. velutipes. Ac-FVP2a was prepared bychemical acetylation. The preparation process of Ac-FVP2a was optimized usingthe response surface method based on three experimental factors includingreaction time, reaction temperature, and the ratio of FVP2a to aceticanhydride. The physicochemical characteristics andantioxidant activities of Ac-FVP2a in vitro were investigated. The results showed that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2022 · 5,207 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrasound-Assisted Enzymatic Extraction of Polysaccharides from Waste Corn Bract: Process Optimization, Characterization, Antioxidant and Anti-Diabetic PotentialsYihui Liu, Yayi Li, Na Niu et al.Corn bract is the main agricultural waste of corn production and processing. Little information is focused on its value-added utilization. In the present study, the Ultrasound-Assisted Enzymatic Extraction (UAEE) was used for the first time to extract Corn Bract Polysaccharides (CBPs). The optimum conditions of UAEE for CBPs extraction were: Cellulase amount of 0.7%, enzymolysis for 58 min, and ultrasound … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 28 Jun 2022 · 6,126 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEthanol Production by Novel Proline Accumulating Pichia kudriavzevii Mutants Strains Tolerant to High Temperature and Ethanol StressesRika Indri Astuti, Sena Alifianti, Ratu Nabila Maisyitoh et al.Accumulation of osmoprotectant molecule, proline, has been reported to induce a stress tolerance phenotype in yeast cells. In this study, two ethanologenic isolates of yeast, Pichia kudriavzevii (R and T), both capable of using both five and six sugar compounds to produce ethanol, were mutated via ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) treatment. Prolineaccumulating mutant strains were selected by using proline-analogue (L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid). … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2018 · 7,838 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Process Conditions for the Production of Holocellulase by a Bacillus Species Isolated from Nahoon Beach SedimentsEvelyn N. Fatokun, Uchechukwu U. Nwodo, Ademola O. Olaniran, Anthony I. OkohProduction of holocellulase by a newly isolated marine Bacillus species via submerged fermentation technique at varying cultivation conditions was investigated. Enzyme production was optimized by altering one variable per time. Moreover effect of lignocellulosic saccharides in inducing cellulase and xylanase production was also investigated. The 16S ribosomal Deoxyribonucleic Acid (16S rDNA) gene sequence analysis exhibited 98% sequence similarity of the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 8 Apr 2017 · 8,029 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSugar Utilization Potential of Micropolyspora Isolated from Extreme EnvironmentA. B. Koli, Prakash Thorat, S. W. KulkarniProblem statement: Waste water of various industries contain large amount of organic compounds which are continuously added in sea via river which causes water pollution.
