some biochemical characteristics of common carp (cyprinus carpio) and silver carp (hypophtalmichthys moltrix) surimi prepared by a conventional washing method and protein isolated using alkaline-acid-aided processes were investigated. solubility of protein in silver carp and common carp were found to be highest by using the conventional washing method. decreases in myoglobin and lipid contents ...

Chemical changes and shelf-life of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) surimi prepared by conventional washing method and solubilization by acid and alkali processes were investigated during 5 months of storage at -18 °C. Results showed that surimi produced with acid and alkaline solubilization is significantly higher yield than the conventional surimi. Protein solubilization by using acid and alkali...

A study was performed to investigate the efficiency of rhizobacteria on solubilization of rock phosphate and their assimilation by wheat plants in quartz sand potted experiments. Two phosphate solubilizing bacteria, P. fluorescens and Serratia sp. were encapsulated in sodium alginate and potato starch beads and selected to investigate the variation on pH values, the enzymatic activity of alkali...

For many years the major problem impeding the elucidation of the structure of melanin and the melanosome has been the insolubility of the melanin polymer. To date, alkaline and acid hydrolysis seem to be the only methods available which can completely solubilize the melanosome (1); unfortunately, both methods degrade the constituents of the organelle other than the melanin polymer. The recent e...

An amphiphilic silk-like protein polymer was efficiently produced in the yeast Pichia pastoris. The secreted product was fully intact and was purified by solubilization in formic acid and subsequent precipitation of denatured host proteins upon dilution with water. In aqueous alkaline solution, the negatively charged acidic polymer assumed extended helical (silk III-like) and unordered conforma...
