Enzymatic processes play a key role in the production of grain-containing food due to their effect on nutritional properties, rheological characteristics, and contribution improving functional antioxidant proprieties. Eight samples beverages based barley grain hemp seeds were produced (control fermented by bifidobacteria propionic acid bacteria). It was found that lactic accumulated during ferm...

Propionibacteria have been reported as being oxygen sensitive bacteria. Nevertheless, in this work, we intend to show that Propionibacterium shermanii CDB 10014 is able to grow even at high volumetric oxygen transfer coefficients (KLa). Similar final cell concentrations were achieved in experiments at different KLa values, with increasing cell yield from 0.08 g/g cells in anaerobic con­ ditions...

The title compound, C(12)H(14)O(4), is an important inter-mediate in the synthesis of biologically active heterocyclic compounds. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular O-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules. There are also C-H⋯π contacts between the benzene ring and the methyl-ene groups.

New approaches are needed to examine the diverse symptoms and comorbidities of the growing family of neurodevelopmental disorders known as autism spectrum disorder (ASD). ASD originally was thought to be a static, inheritable neurodevelopmental disorder, and our understanding of it is undergoing a major shift. It is emerging as a dynamic system of metabolic and immune anomalies involving many o...

BACKGROUND Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) is an emerging opportunistic human pathogen. It can cause pulmonary infections, lymphadenitis and disseminated infections in immuno-compromised patients. In addition, MAH is widespread in the environment, since it has been isolated from water, soil or dust. In recent years, knowledge on MAH at the molecular level has increased substantiall...

this study was conducted to study the effect of organic acids on the preservation of alfalfa nutritional value after harvesting. a split plot design with 4 treatments and 3 times was conducted in which organic acids were sprayed on the 30percent moisture content forage before baling. treatments were: 1) forage without additives as control, 2) pure propionic acid, 1percent, 3) acetic acid percen...

To investigate the distribution and dynamics of microbial community in anaerobic digestion at agitated and non-agitated condition, 454 pyrosequencing of 16s rRNA was conducted. It revealed the distinct community compositions between the two digesters and their progressive shifting over time. Methanogens and syntrophic bacteria were found much less abundant in the agitated digester, which was ma...

Since insulin resistance can lead to hyperglycemia, improving glucose uptake into target tissues is critical for regulating blood glucose levels. Among the free fatty acid receptor (FFAR) family of G protein-coupled receptors, GPR41 is known to be the Gαi/o-coupled receptor for short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) such as propionic acid (C3) and valeric acid (C5). This study aimed to investigate the...
