The effect of vacuum packing on the shelf-life of sausages produced from Capoeta umbla were investigated during storage periods. For this purpose, microbial, chemical and sensory changes were analyzed throughout the storage time. The microbial flora of the sausages comprised mainly mesophilic bacteria, psychrotrophic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, yeast and molds. Escherichia coli, Staphylcocc...

The manganese peroxidase (MnP) of Phanerochaete chrysosporium supported Mn(II)-dependent, H202independent lipid peroxidation, as shown by two findings: linolenic acid was peroxidized to give products that reacted with thiobarbituric acid, and linoleic acid was peroxidized to give hexanal. MnP also supported the slow oxidation of phenanthrene to 2,2'-diphenic acid in a reaction that required Mn(...

A new comparative series of barbituric acid and thiobarbituric acid based chalcone derivatives bearing the pyrimidine nucleus were synthesized. The chemical structures of the resulting molecules were characterised by means of FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared) 1H NMR, 13C-NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) and HMBC (Heteronuclear Multiple-Bond Correlation) and Elemental Analysis. All synthesized ...

With limited protein resources and depleting commercial fish species there is the need to improve utilization of some of the lesser known species which are underutilized, for example, big eye grunt (burrito), Bachydeuterus auritus, and the flying gurnard (Dactylopterus volitans), (other names Cephalocanthus volitans (local) Pampansre). This study was to characterize some of the proximate and bi...

This study aimed to determine the changes in quality of sous vide meagre (Argyrosomus regius) fillets that have been treated with oregano and rosemary extracts during cold storage (4±1 °C). Saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated polyunsaturated acids dominant fish were found be palmitic acid, oleic linoleic respectively. pH values fluctuated samples. It was determined total volatile basic nitro...

Enzymatic proteolysis is helpful to release bioactive peptides encrypted in food proteins. The antioxidant capability of soy protein isolate (SPI) hydrolyzed with a novel protease preparation from Chryseobacterium sp. kr6 was investigated. The antioxidant capacity of the hydrolysates was evaluated using radical-scavenging and metal-chelating assays. Maximum values for scavenging of 2,2’-azino-b...

After a preliminary hydrolysis of the serum samples, the liberated sialic acid is determined by the thiobarbituric acid method of WARREN adapted to the Autoanalyzer. By measuring the developed chromogen in very hot solution, the use of extraction or the addition of stabilizing agents is avoided. Sixty determinations can be run per hour and the optical densities follow a straight line well withi...
