Several yeast strains degrading malic acid as a sole carbon and energy source were isolated from Korean wine pomace after enrichment culture in the presence of malic acid. Among them, the strain designated as KMBL 5774 showed the highest malic acid degrading ability. It was identified as Issatchenkia orientalis based on its morphological and physiological characteristics as well as the nucleoti...

The occurrence of malic acid in fermented products derived from various fruit juices is common knowledge and it has been generally supposed that this substance was exclusively derived from malic acid preformed in the fruit. The object of the following communication is to establish the fact that I-malic acid is a true product of fermentation by yeast and that significant amounts of the acid are ...

Label-MMAcid-Rev030410 BACKGROUND Ruminants are animals that have multiple stomachs to allow consumption and digestion of fibrous feedstuffs. Key to this digestive process is the bacterial breakdown of the fiber in the first stomach or rumen. The bacterial balance in the rumen can shift, allowing the ruminant to adapt to different diets. Ruminal bacteria convert fiber into lactate and volatile ...

the effect of 0, 2, and 5 mm of citric, malic and oxalic acids on phosphorus (p) sorption was evaluated. in the collected soils, the level of total calcium carbonate stood in the range of 4-28%, clay content at 33-56% and the amount of organic matter recorded within 0.6-2.7%. the results indicated that the addition of organic acids causes reduction in p sorption. citric acid in most soils, was ...

Extracts of liver and muscle convert citric acid into laevo-rotatory isocitric acid [Martius, 1938]. As the rotation of isocitric acid, like that ofother ac-hydroxy acids, is much increased by (NH4)2MoO4*, the polarimeter can be used to measure low concentrations of isocitric acid in tissue extracts [Martius, 1938; Jacobsohn, 1940]. On applying this method to plant extracts we met with an unexp...

A sensitive and specific chemical method for the estimation of malic acid in biological materials has long been desired. The condensation of malic acid with orcinol in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid to form the highly fluorescent homoumbelliferone (7-hydroxyd-methylcoumarin) was reported years ago (1). Although this reaction is relatively specific for malic acid, the quantitative pr...

The formation of diastereomeric cocrystals of malic acid and tartaric acid was investigated by liquid-assisted grinding in the solid state. We demonstrate that racemic malic acid can be converted into two distinct diastereomeric cocrystal phases by grinding with a single enantiomer of tartaric acid.

Rosa canina L. extracts were prepared using water or three natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs: betaine+malic acid, betaine+sucrose, and citric acid+sucrose with 50% of water) maceration. The characterized in terms total polyphenol content (TPC), ABTS radical scavenging potential, extraction yield, zeta conductivity, pH, density, surface tension, viscosity. TPC was the highest acid extract (...

low molecular weight organic acids are most predominant in apple juice among these components fumaric acid was not exceed more than 5 ppm. it was thought that the hplc is the best method of the determination of organic acids in the apple juice. in this study, chromatographic separation of organic acids of apple juice was obtained by preparing a sample and by applying them to acid phase for extr...
