NONENZYMATIC BROWNIIK IN MODa SYSTEMS C0NUIMN6 SUQOSE

چکیده
Freeze-dried systems containing sucrose and organic acids were found to undergo rapid nonenzymatic browning, even at low relative humidities. Addition of protein reduced the rate of browning, especially at low humidities. It was determined that the browning was due to reducing sugars produced by acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of sucrose. This hydrolysis occurred even when water content was well below 1% and below B.E.T. monolayer coverage (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method of calculating monolayer values). These findings have important implications for storage stability of dehydrated foods since they point to a new mechanism for initiation of browning in rach foods as freeze-dried juices.

Origin of the Diversity in DNA Recognition Domains in Phasevarion Associated modA Genes of Pathogenic Neisseria and Haemophilus influenzae
Phase variable restriction-modification (R-M) systems have been identified in a range of pathogenic bacteria. In some it has been demonstrated that the random switching of the mod (DNA methyltransferase) gene mediates the coordinated expression of multiple genes and constitutes a phasevarion (phase variable regulon). ModA of Neisseria and Haemophilus influenzae contain a highly variable, DNA re...
متن کاملAn Input-Output Criterion for Linear Model Deduction
Model order deduction algorithms have been developed in an effort to automate the production of accurate, minimal complexity models of dynamic systems in order to aid in the design of these systems. Previous algorithms, MODA and Extended MODA, deduce models independent of system inputs and outputs. FD-MODA uses frequency response methods to deduce models of a single input-output pair. In this p...
متن کاملMODA: an efficient algorithm for network motif discovery in biological networks.
In recent years, interest has been growing in the study of complex networks. Since Erdös and Rényi (1960) proposed their random graph model about 50 years ago, many researchers have investigated and shaped this field. Many indicators have been proposed to assess the global features of networks. Recently, an active research area has developed in studying local features named motifs as the buildi...
متن کاملProtoplasmic Incompatibility in PODOSPORA ANSERINA: a Possible Function for Incompatibility Genes.
The suppression of protoplasmic incompatibility resulting from nonallelic gene interactions has been obtained by the coupled effect of mutations in the modA and modB genes (Bernet 1971). Due to their female sterility, modA modB strains provide an experimental tool to determine whether or not the mod and incompatibility loci are involved in a function other than protoplasmic incompatibility. Pre...
متن کاملProceedings of the Symposium on Automated Modeling 1994 ASME Winter Annual Meeting Chicago, IL DEVELOPMENT OF PROPER MODELS OF HYBRID SYSTEMS
To improve the ability of engineers to use dynamic models as part of the design process, a model synthesis procedure for developing proper models of hybrid systems is presented. An accuracy criterion and a new search pattern is developed for a model order deduction algorithm (MODA) previously published. The extended MODA process consists of systematically incrementing the rank of each component...
