The development of cercariae from Schistosoma mansoni strains BH and SJ in Biomphalaria glabrata and Biomphalaria tenagophila treated with saccharose was studied. The molluscs were maintained in dechlorinated tap water containing 0.01% saccharose. After one week of treatment with saccharose, B. glabrata and B. tenagophila were exposed to ten S. mansoni miracidia, from BH and SJ strains respecti...

It would appear from theoretical considerations that muscle tissue should be incapable of forming glycogen from a disaccharid. As has been shown by a number of observers,’ the amount of inverting substance present in muscle or blood is small, or is entirely absent. The injection experiments with saccharose,2 and perfusion experiments with the liver3 also tend to show that saccharose is quite in...

Edible mushroom species are considered as an adequate source of food in a healthy diet due to high content of protein, fiber, vitamins, and a variety of minerals. The representatives of Pleurotus genus are characterized by distinct gastronomic, nutritional, and medicinal properties among the edible mushrooms commercialized worldwide. In the present study, the growth of mycelial biomass of Pleur...

This application note presents a simple and rapid method for the simultaneous determination of Saccharose, Glucose, Fructose, Ethanol and Glycerol. The method is designed for the quality and process control of wine. All five substances are baseline separated and no hydrolysis of Saccharose was observed. An extra sample preparation is not necessary, just a dilution. This method works with water ...

Volume 1 • Issue 6 • 1000e119 Biochem Anal Biochem ISSN:2161-1009 Biochem, an open access journal Sugars constitute a class of biocomponents, which can reach in plants an amount of almost 50% of their dried weight. Glucose, fructose and saccharose are found in significant amounts in fruits and honey. Glucose or dextrose occurs naturally in fruits and vegetables as the primary product of photosy...

It has been possible to study the cultural characters and certain of the immunological relationships of sixteen strains of Bacillus bovisepticus. The organisms have fallen into three distinct cultural groups. The largest group comprises eight strains, four of them obtained in pure cultures from cases of pneumonia in cows, two others were pure infections in calves, the others were associated wit...

The tiger nut contains different active ingredients like oil, tannins, sterols, saponins, alkaloids, vitamins C and E, minerals, resins. There is a lack of information about carbohydrates content Cyperus esculentus L. Thus, the aim this study was to determine herb tubers. qualitative composition quantitative in tubers ( L.) were determined by using GC/MS method. results analysis showed that hav...
