Objective: The aim of this study was to obtain protein isolate from sacha inchi using alkaline pH at different pHs of precipitation with water and salt and to analyze protein isolate with electrophoresis. Methods: Sacha inchi protein isolates were obtained using isoelectric precipitation method at different pHs. Proteins were analyzed using electrophoresis native-polyacrylamide gel electrophore...

Equilibrium unfolding of a 69-kDa monomeric Escherichia coli maltodextrin glucosidase (MalZ) was studied using intrinsic and extrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy. The unfolding transition of MalZ followed a three-state process, involving the formation of a stable intermediate state having more exposed hydrophobic surface. It was found that the protein structure can be easily perturbed by low con...

it is believed that the inhibition of carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzymes including α-amylase and α-glucosidase is one of the therapeutic approaches to decrease the postprandial glucose level after a meal, especially in the people with type 2 diabetes. medicinal plants and their extracts are one of the main sources to find new inhibitors to the enzymes. in our study four flavonoids, namely luteoli...

the purposes of this research have been to determine the wastewater quality of a typical railroad repair workshop and to find a way to reduce the concentrations of present contaminants especially oil and grease. the mean concentrations of oil, cod and ss in the wastewater studied were 287.69, 775.85 and 28723, respectively with average daily discharge to be 30-35 m3. three successive treatment ...

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease. Decreasing postprandial hyperglycemia by retarding glucose absorption through inhibiting carbohydrates digesting enzymes (α-amylase and α-glucosidase) is one of many approaches used for the management of this disease. This study was aimed at evaluating the normoglycaemic potential of Helianthus annuus leaf. Methods: The effect o...
