lysozyme is one of the bioactive components of eggs with well known antibacterial potential, widely used in food industry, medicine and pharmaceutics. in this study, the possibility of quail’s egg lysozyme concentration and activity (modified via amino acids dietary supplementation) was investigated. in accordance with lysozyme amino acids profile, four amino acids of: asparagine, arginine, gly...

Background and Aims: Amino acids have different effects on the growth of some dermatophytes. Some may increase whereas others maydecrease their growth. The concentration of some amino acids is also an important factor for their effects. Materials and Methods: To investigate the effects of L-amino acids on the growth of six species of dermatophytes including Epidermophyton floccosum, Microspor...

OBJECTIVE To study an array of household individual and dietary risk factors for neurolathyrism. METHOD Case-control study using recent cases in a district highly affected by the recent neurolathyrism epidemic in Ethiopia: 108 households with cases and 104 households with no cases; 170 neurolathyrism cases, 370 intra-family controls and 170 community controls frequency matched for age and sex...

Abstract To our knowledge, there is a lack of information on the nutrient composition Busha cattle milk with special regard to its amino acid and biogenic amine contents. The breed known be highly resistant various diseases well-adapted extensive breeding conditions Balkan Peninsula. cow contains an average 13.47% dry matter, 4.34% fat, 3.72 % protein, 4.32% lactose. Significant differences wer...

Taurine (Tau) deficiencies have been associated with the feeding of commercial lamb-meal and rice diets to dogs. We hypothesized that the poor digestibility of some lamb-meals may limit sulphur amino acids availability for Tau synthesis and/or increase of Tau degradation in the gut. Growing dogs were fed either a lamb-meal-based (Diet A) or poultry by-product-based (Diet B) commercial diet. Pla...

Germination and/or fermentation processes for Egyptian breeds of mung seeds were carried out with three Lactobacillus strains namely, L. reuteri, L. case, and L. heleviticus. Results revealed increase in protein content, nitrogen solubility and in vitro digestibility for all treated mung meals. Treated mung proteins contained most of the essential amino acids in concentrations comparable to tho...

There have been many attempts to increase concentrations of the nutritionally essential sulphur amino acids by modifying their biosynthetic pathway in leaves of transgenic plants. This report describes the first modification of cysteine biosynthesis in developing seeds; those of the grain legume, narrow leaf lupin (Lupinus angustifolius, L.). Expression in developing lupin embryos of a serine a...

The aim of the present research is to investigate the profile of amino acid of Chlorella vulgaris supplemented with some plant amino acid and oil extracts. The bioactive oil and amino acid from four Iranian medicinal plants, namely Oliveria decumbens, Thymus kotschyanus, Trachyspermum ammi, and Zataria multiflora were obtained. The LC-MS / MS analysis demonstrated that the major amino acids com...
