The potential of Tetragenococcus halophilus as a starter culture for flavor improvement in fish sauce fermentation was elucidated. Four strains of T. halophilus isolated from fish sauce mashes were inoculated to anchovy mixed with 25% NaCl with an approximate cell count of 10(6) CFU/mL. The α-amino content of 6-month-old fish sauce samples inoculated with T. halophilus was 780-784 mM. The addition of T. halophilus MRC10-1-3 and T. halophilus MCD10-5-10 resulted in a reduction of histamine (P < 0.05). Fish sauce inoculated with T. halophilus showed high contents of total amino acids with predominantly high glutamic acid. Major volatile compounds in fish sauce were 2-methylpropanal, 2-methylbutanal, 3-methylbutanal, and benzaldehyde. T. halophilus-inoculated fish sauce samples demonstrated the ability to reduce dimethyl disulfide, a compound contributing to a fecal note. The use of T. halophilus for fish sauce fermentation improves amino acid profiles and volatile compounds as well as reduces biogenic amine content of a fish sauce product. 相似文献

A protocol is described for the in vitro propagation of Abies amabilis (Dougl.) Forbes. Over 60% of the cotyledonary explants from 5-day-old cotyledons formed shoots when cultured for 7 days on Schenk and Hildebrandt's (SH) medium containing 10 micro M N(6)-benzyladenine (BA) followed by another 7 days on SH medium containing 10 micro M each of BA and zeatin. Shoot multiplication was unsuccessful. Seventeen percent rooting was obtained after pulsing for 4 h in 1 mM indole-3-butyric acid and planting pulsed shoots in 1/1 (v/v) perlite/vermiculite. Cell clusters (promeristemoids) of five to seven cells were observed on the cotyledonary explants after 7 days of culture in the presence of cytokinin. These cells developed further into meristematic domes and apical meristems. In the absence of cytokinin, stomata and resin canals reached maturity, whereas cells within the cortex became vacuolated and developed into palisade and spongy mesophyll. 相似文献

It has previously been shown that exogenous applications of ascorbic acid (AA) increase the conversion frequency of somatic embryos of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss). To determine whether ascorbic acid alters purine metabolism during the early phases of embryo germination, the relative rates of purine salvage and degradation were investigated by following the metabolic fates of exogenously applied [8-14C]adenine, [8-14C]adenosine, and [8-14C]inosine, and the activities of several key enzymes. We demonstrated that both the salvage and the degradation pathways operate during germination. Specifically, adenine and adenosine were mainly salvaged to nucleotides and nucleic acids, whereas an appreciable amount of inosine was degraded to CO2 and ureides. Comparisons of purine metabolism between control and AA-treated embryos showed that exogenous applications of ascorbic acid enhanced the ability of the embryos to take up adenine and adenosine throughout the germination period. Furthermore, the higher enzymatic activities of adenosine kinase and adenine phosphoribosyltransferase were responsible for the larger proportion of adenine and adenosine being salvaged in AA-treated embryos compared with control embryos. Thus, there was a positive correlation between the ability to anabolize purine precursors and successful embryo conversion. 相似文献

Although it has been shown that iron absorption from NaFeEDTA, a promising iron fortificant, is effectively down-regulated in iron-loaded rats, effects of prolonged exposure to high dietary levels of NaFeEDTA are not well understood. The objectives of this study were to determine whether rats can adapt to a high dietary level of NaFeEDTA by down-regulating iron absorption, and to determine effects on tissue iron distribution, with or without an iron absorption inhibitor. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to diets supplemented with FeSO4 or NaFeEDTA at 1200 mg of Fe/kg of diet, with or without tea, for 27 days. Iron absorption measured by whole-body counting before and after exposure showed that rats adapted to the high dietary level of FeSO4 or NaFeEDTA by down-regulating iron absorption to a similar extent. However, nonheme iron concentrations in liver and spleen were about 35-50% lower, whereas the concentration in kidney was about 300% higher in rats fed NaFeEDTA, compared to rats fed FeSO4. Tea had no major impact on iron absorption or iron status, regardless of iron source. Our results showed that although iron absorption was down-regulated similarly, body iron distribution was markedly different between rats exposed to FeSO4 and those exposed to NaFeEDTA. Further studies are warranted to determine the effects of prolonged exposure to dietary NaFeEDTA on kidney iron accumulation and kidney function. 相似文献

Successful quantification of the glucose produced by enzyme hydrolysis of starch was achieved by a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) protocol, using sorbitol as an internal standard. The starch contents measured by MALDI-TOF MS of corn starch, fiber-enriched oat flour derivatives, oat and barley flours, and barley flour/corn starch composites were evaluated in comparison to a widely accepted and validated method of starch determination, which relies on enzyme colorimetry (EC). The average starch content measured in a series of corn starch samples of different masses was 93 and 101% for EC and MALDI-TOF MS, respectively, values that represent the estimated purity of the sample. There was an agreement of 99% between the starch contents determined by the two analytical methods for complex flour-derived samples. Starch values estimated by MALDI-TOF MS consistently showed a greater degree of variability than those determined by EC, but this limitation was readily compensated by rapid acquisition of multiple mass spectra. This study is the first to report the quantification of glucose by MALDI-TOF MS, and it offers new perspectives into the potential utility of MALDI-TOF MS as a definitive tool for monosaccharide analysis and rapid starch determination in complex samples. 相似文献

The surface potential of biological membranes varies according to their lipid composition. We devised genetically encoded probes to assess surface potential in intact cells. These probes revealed marked, localized alterations in the charge of the inner surface of the plasma membrane of macrophages during the course of phagocytosis. Hydrolysis of phosphoinositides and displacement of phosphatidylserine accounted for the change in surface potential at the phagosomal cup. Signaling molecules such as K-Ras, Rac1, and c-Src that are targeted to the membrane by electrostatic interactions were rapidly released from membrane subdomains where the surface charge was altered by lipid remodeling during phagocytosis. 相似文献

Alterations in biochemical constituents of uterine fluid have been suggested for diagnosis of subclinical uterine infection in the bovine. This study was undertaken to investigate whether uterine fluid biomolecules could act as tool for diagnosis of subclinical endometritis in the buffalo. Uterine fluid samples from normal (n = 22) and subclinical endometritis (n = 18; diagnosed based on uterine cytology)‐affected buffaloes were subjected to biochemical analysis. Among the different biochemical constituents estimated, urea, urea N, cholesterol, total bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) concentrations were significantly (p < 0.05) higher in uterine fluid obtained from subclinical endometritis‐affected buffaloes. The extent of difference between normal and subclinical endometritis‐affected buffaloes was highest in ALP (69%) followed by cholesterol (55%), bilirubin (48%), urea (30%) and urea N (30%) concentrations. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis indicated that the likelihood ratio (LR) was 3.63 for urea, indicating that buffaloes having less than the threshold concentration (47.5 mg/dl) of urea in their uterine fluid were at 3.6 times more risk to be affected with SE. The LRs for urea N, cholesterol, ALP and bilirubin were 2.33, 2.54, 2.12 and 1.65, respectively. It was concluded that ALP, urea, urea N and cholesterol concentrations in uterine fluid may serve as an aid for diagnosing subclinical endometritis in the buffalo. 相似文献

Phellinus weirii s.l., an aggressive root rot pathogen, causes extensive wood losses and lowers the productivity of western red cedar (WRC, Thuja plicata), Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and other conifers. This fungus has been recognized as a cedar form (P. weirii s.s.) and a non‐cedar form (P. sulphurascens). Differentiating the two species is difficult because their fruiting bodies and cultural morphologies are very similar. However, differences in growth rate and colony morphology were observed when they were grown on malt extract agar with WRC feeder strips. In addition, different restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns were obtained using (i) the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region cut with the restriction enzyme RsaI, and (ii) the partial large subunit ribosomal DNA region cut with AgeI and NciI. Furthermore, a new specific primer set was designed from the ITS region of P. weirii s.s. and was used to differentiate it from P. sulphurascens and other decay fungi that are frequently found in coniferous trees. These species‐specific primers will facilitate the detection of P. weirii in standing trees well before visible signs of infection are apparent. 相似文献

Previously, we demonstrated that, in some cell lines, exogenous applications of ascorbic acid (ASC) enhance the conversion frequency of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) somatic embryos, by stimulating mitotic activity in the apical meristems. To examine this event in more detail, we investigated the effects of ASC on de novo, salvage and degradation pathways of pyrimidine metabolism by following the metabolic fate of (14)C-labeled orotic acid, thymidine, uridine and uracil in shoot and root poles of germinating embryos, after altering the cellular ASC content of the embryos. Alterations in endogenous ASC content did not affect the utilization of either orotic acid or uracil, but affected the metabolism of thymidine and uridine. Specifically, a lowering of endogenous ASC content by applications of lycorine (L), an inhibitor of the last enzyme of the ASC de novo biosynthetic pathway, resulted in a lower embryo conversion frequency, as well as a reduced percentage of thymidine and uridine incorporated into nucleotides and nucleic acids. The reduction in thymidine and uridine anabolism was mainly ascribed to the decreased activities of thymidine kinase (TRK) and uridine kinase (URK), the respective salvage enzymes of thymidine and uridine, measured in L-treated embryos. These effects were solely a result of a decrease in endogenous ASC content because applications of ascorbic acid plus lycorine (ASC + L) increased embryo conversion frequency, thymidine and uridine salvage activities, and TRK and URK activities to near control values. Inclusion of exogenous ASC in the germination medium did not affect the percentage of embryos able to convert to viable plantlets, although it increased thymidine and uridine utilization for nucleic acid synthesis in the shoot and root poles of the embryos. Taken together, these findings confirm that cellular ASC plays a key role in the reactivation of the apical meristems of germinating white spruce somatic embryos. 相似文献
