Background and Objectives: Production of fish protein hydrolysate is a method for converting the low-value economical underutilized fish species to value-added products. This study aimed to evaluate the different proportions of distilled water to the substrate on the functional characteristics, antioxidant and nutritional quality of fish protein hydrolysate of bigeye ilisha (Ilisha megaloptera)...

An adequate estimation of a proteinaceous substrate decomposition is one of the problems, frequently appearing during the protein hydrolysate technology. A combination of high-resolution 1 H NMR spectroscopy data with other technics could be a good solution of this problem. In present paper we applied high-resolution 1 H NMR spectroscopy method to characterize the degree of protein hydrolysis o...

daily, organophosphorus compounds (ops) in human life, has found wide applications. although ops have biodegradability potential, they induce clinical problems in humans and other organism. different methods are used to detoxify these compounds. in the meantime, biodegradation is preferred as a compatible way to the environment since it produces less toxic compounds. enzymes capable to degrade ...

cow’s milk whey consists of many protein components and some of them are antigens to human and known to modulate immune responses. enzymatic hydrolysis is a useful method to modify proteins with allergenicity. the objective of this study was to identify whether the in vitro enzymatic hydrolysis could reduce the allergenicity of whey protein concentrates (wpc). in  this study, wpc were hydrolyze...

The theory of elastic group transfer for the binding and release rate constants for nucleotides in F1-ATPase as a function of the rotor angle is further extended in several respects. (i) A method is described for predicting the experimentally observed lifetime distribution of long binding events in the controlled rotation experiments by taking into account the hydrolysis and synthesis reactions...

The function of bacteria in the production of ammonia from the protein substances in soil is well known. How these proteins are acted upon, whether it is a hydrolytic process brought about by enzymatic action, whether an oxidative one, or whether a more complex chemical reaction, is yet an unsettled question. In order to ascertain, if possible, by controlling influencing factors as much as cond...

Abstract Increasing the surface hydrophilicity of polyetherimide (PEI) through partial hydrolysis imide groups while maintaining length main-chain was explored for adjusting its function in biomedical and membrane applications. The outcome polymer analogous reaction, i.e., degree ring opening chain cleavage, is difficult to address bulk microstructured systems, as these changes only occur at in...

Total lipid and phospholipid recovery as well as amino acid quality and composition from cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) and sardine (Sardina pilchardus) were compared. Enzymatic hydrolyses were performed using the three proteases Protamex, Alcalase, and Flavourzyme by the pH-stat method (24 h, pH 8, 50 degrees C). Three fractions were generated: an insoluble sludge, a soluble aqueous phase, and...

Neutrase 0.8L and N120P proteases were used for oligopeptide production from apricot almonds meal, and response surface design was carried out to optimize the effect of hydrolysis conditions on hydrolysis degree (DH) and oligopeptide yield rate. Four independent variables were used to optimize the hydrolysis process: hydrolysis temperature (X(1)), enzyme-to substrate ratio (E/S) (X(2)), substra...

Synthesis of YSZ nanopowder by alkoxide sol-gel method, through two different hydrolysis routes, one under careful control by using acetyacetone as ligand, and the other through basic hydrolysis, was investigated. The synthesized powders were characterized by various analytical techniques such as, XRD, STA, PSA, BET, SEM, and TEM. The results showed that, the YSZ powders prepared through the ba...
