Fish is a common trigger of severe, food-allergic reactions. Only a limited number of proteins induce specific IgE-mediated immune reactions. The major fish allergens are the parvalbumins. They are members of the calcium-binding EF-hand protein family characterized by a conserved protein structure. They represent highly cross-reactive allergens for patients with specific IgE to conserved epitop...

BACKGROUND Too many different protein and enzyme purification techniques have been reported, especially, chromatographic techniques. Apart from low recovery, these multi-step methods are complicated, time consuming, high operating cost. So, alternative beneficially methods are still required. Since, the outstanding advantages of aqueous two phase system (ATPS) such as simple, low cost, high rec...

A 10-week feeding experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of feeding level, energy and protein maintenance requirement of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, fingerling (5.65±0.45cm; 1.42 ±0.25g) by feeding casein-gelatin based purified diet (45% CP; 3.67 kcal  g-1 GE) at six feeding levels 2-7% of BW/day in two equal meals, at 0800 and 1700 h, in triplicate, with 20 fish per trough fi...

Tissue adhesives play an important role in surgery to close wounds, seal tissues, and stop bleeding, but existing adhesives are costly, cytotoxic, or bond weakly to tissue. Inspired by the water-resistant adhesion of plant-derived tannins, we herein report a new family of bioadhesives derived from a facile, one-step Michael addition of tannic acid and gelatin under oxidizing conditions and cros...

the aim of this study was to investigate the influence of various treatments with filter-aids on pomegranate juice quality. the pomegranate used in this study was malas variety. different treatments in cold clarification method attempted were pectolitic enzyme, pectolitic enzyme-gelatin-bentonit, pectolitic enzyme-gelatin-silica sol, pectolitic enzyme-gelatin-bentonit-silica sol, gelatin-benton...

The amount of gelatin used worldwide in the food industry is increasing annually. Recovery valuable components from fish processing-by products could help solve problems on tons wastes produced each year and address religious beliefs like Islam Judaism as well fear mad cow disease. In this study, was extracted milkfish scales for application. physical properties (yield, strength, color, clarity...
