New alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, CKD-711 and CKD-711a were produced from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. CK-4416 which was isolated from a forest soil of Jeju Island, South Korea. CKD-711 and CKD-711a were purified by Dowex 50W-2X and Sephadex G-10 column chromatography. In in vitro studies, CKD-711 showed a potent inhibitory activity against a-glucosidase from mammalian, but less i...

The xylanase production by a new Cochliobolus sativus Cs5 strain was improved under submerged fermentation. The xylanase was induced by xylan and repressed by glucose, sucrose, maltose, xylose, starch and cellulose. Highest enzyme production (98.25 IU/mL) was recorded when wheat straw (4 % by mass per volume) was used as a carbon source after 120 h of incubation. NaNO3 increased xylanase produc...

Two new cyclic lipopeptides maribasins A (1) and B (2) were isolated from the fermentation broth of the marine microorganism Bacillus marinus B-9987 isolated from Suaeda salsa in Bohai coastline of P. R. China. Both structures were established to be cyclo (D-Pro-L-Gln-L-Asn-L-Ser-D-Asn¹-D-Tyr-D-Asn²-D-β-aminoisopentadecanoic acid) (1) and cyclo (D-Pro-L-Gln-L-Asn-L-Ser-D-Asn¹-D-Tyr-D-Asn²-D-β-a...

• Bentonite fining is widely used to increase the protein stability of a wine. Some authors have proposed treatment of the juice itself, rather than the wine, to enhance fermentation performance and flavor, and increase stability. Some authors have reported that this practice yields stable wines not requiring further fining, whereas others have found no increase in stability when treating the j...

The objective of this study was to investigate in vitro effect of Malva sylvestris leaf extract (at 0, 25, 50 and 100 µL/30 mL of medium) on sheep ruminal cellulolytic and total viable bacteria growth, protozoa populations, methane production, neutral detergent fiber degradability (NDFD) and fermentation efficiency of oat hay. The addition of Malva sylvestris leaf extract at 25, 50 and 100 µL l...

Recovery of metabolites from fermentation broth by solvent extraction can be used to optimize fermentation processes. End-product reutilization, low product concentration and large volumes of fermentation broth and the requirements for large bioreactors, in addition to the high cost largely contributed to the decline in fermentative 2,3-butanediol production. Extraction can successfully be ...

The aim of the study was to optimize ethylic fermentation process mucilage juice cacao by Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast. effected inoculating S. on 0.2 g activated yeast/liter for essay E1, and 0.5 yeast/L E2. Results reveal that increasing pH value in acidic zone raised rate inoculated with than g/L juice. amounts soluble extract transformed yield were greater (90.60%) E1 compared those E2 (8...
