A biosensor based on stearic acid-graphite powder modified with sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) tissue as peroxidase source was constructed and applied in organic solvents. Several parameters were studied to evaluate the performance of this biosensor such as stearic acid-graphite powder and
On-line size-exclusion chromatography monitoring of potato phosphorylase catalyzed amylose synthesis--starting from alpha-D-glucose-1-P and maltohexaose--revealed rather monodisperse amylose populations. In the presence of lipids, amylose-lipid complexes spontaneously formed and precipitated. They
One hundred sixty-eight crossbred steers (317.1 +/- 1.0 kg) were used to evaluate the effects of supplemental fat in finishing diets on the fatty acid composition, including the 9,11 isomer of conjugated linoleic acid, of beef. Steers were allotted within three weight blocks to a randomized complete
Debranched unacetylated and acetylated potato starches with two degrees of substitution, 0.041 (low) and 0.078 (high), combined with or without β-amylase hydrolysis were prepared to form soluble and insoluble complexes with stearic acid. The effects of modifications on the complexation, thermal
Microsomes prepared from pea leaf, potato tuber or germinated soya-beans, were incubated for 30 min with [14C]glycerol 3-phosphate. In the three tissues, phosphatidic acid (PA), CDP-diacylglycerols (CMP-PA) and phosphatidylinositol (PI) were labelled and could be separated by TLC. After methylation
CONCLUSIONS
Potato and tobacco cells are differentially suited to study oxylipin pathway and elicitor-induced responses. Synthesis of oxylipins via the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway provides plant cells with an important class of signaling molecules, related to plant stress responses and innate
The dried rhizomes of Veratrum album were individually extracted with CHCl3 , acetone, and NH4 OH/benzene to test the toxic effects against the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata, which is an important agricultural pest. Fifteen compounds in various amounts were isolated from the
Use of potato processing wastewater for microbial lipid production by oleaginous filamentous fungus Aspergillus oryzae was studied with the purpose of recycling potato processing wastewater for biodiesel production. The wastewater contained high concentrations of solids, starch and nutrients.
Little is known about the fungal metabolism of nC10 and nC11 fatty acids and their conversion into lipids. A mixed batch culture of soil fungi, T. koningii and P. janthinellum, was grown on undecanoic acid (UDA), a mixture of UDA and potato dextrose broth (UDA+PDB), and PDB alone to examine their
This study aimed to understand differences in the resistant starch (RS) contents of native and modified starches obtained using two standard methods of RS content analysis: AOAC Method 991.43 and 2002.02. The largest differences were observed in native potato starch, cross-linked wheat distarch
The changes occurring in rice bran oil and its blend with sunflower oil during repeated frying cycles of dried and moist potato chips were monitored. The parameters assessed were: Colour, Refractive Index, SpecificGravity, Oryzanol Value, Free fatty acid, Iodine Value, Peroxide value, anisidine
The effect of hypolipidemic drugs, WY14643 and DH990, on plant lipid metabolism has been studied. The total incorporation of [14C]acetate into lipids was inhibited by addition of both drugs to aged potato (Solanum tuberosum) tuber discs, spinach (Spinacia oleracea) leaves, and spinach chloroplasts,
The effect of lipids on the enzymic breakdown of starch was investigated using an in vitro assay system. Mixtures of potato amylose, amylopectin and starch and various lipids were incubated at 37 degrees C for 10 min and subjected to digestion by alpha-amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) and amyloglucosidase (EC
The present work aims to explore a new oleaginous Fusarium isolate potential to accumulate lipids in its biomass from inexpensive substrates. In addition, impacts of crabon and nitrogen sourses and their ratios on lipid production by the interested fungal isolate were also Background: Cashews are the third most-consumed tree nut in the United States and are abundant with monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are associated with reduced cardiovascular disease risk. Although a qualified Food and Drug Administration health claim exists for
