This review describes and discusses the structure, biosynthesis applications of exopolysaccharides from lactic acid bacteria. These substances are classified as homopolysaccharides, which synthesised sucrose through action extracellular glycosyltransferases or heteropolysaccharides, repeating unit precursors formed in cytoplasm assembled extracellularly by sequential addition nucleotide sugars....

The present study evaluated the stabilizing effect of starch produced from corns and cassava on stability cow milk yogurt. A sample both corn was selected used in yogurt making as stabilizers. samples have been analyzed for their WHC, syneresis protein content. with no added has found to very low WHC high compared other samples. made addition a stabilizer highly accepted than without starch. fi...

Abstract As a widely consumed fermented milk product, yogurt undergoes constant development to increase its functional properties. Monascus purpureus -fermented durian seed, which has been proven possess antioxidative properties, the potential improve This study aimed analyze use of seed (MFDS) as ingredient in and effect on physicochemical lactic acid bacteria (LAB) count, consumer acceptabili...

Introduction: Andean lupin seeds are under-exploited sources of nutrients and bioactive compounds. Materials methods: were debittered to remove toxic alkaloids, partially defatted with 70% ethanol, dried at 60°C milled. The flour was suspended in water adjusted pH 7 1N NaOH. protein extract filtered spray-dried. Enriched yoghurts obtained the addition concentrate 0.5, 1 1.5%. chemical fatty aci...

The latex agglutination test for Cryptococcus neoformans antigen is a simple and rapid procedure for the diagnosis of cryptococcal meningitis. Although the test is sensitive, care must be taken to prevent contamination of the sample, which may result in false-positive reactions. It was discovered in our laboratory that immersion of a platinum wire inoculating loop into a sample of cerebrospinal...
