Niponsak A, Laohakunjit N, Kerdchoechuen O, Wongsawadee P.
PMID: 28460926
Food Res Int. 2016 Nov;89:365-372. doi: 10.1016/j.foodres.2016.08.038. Epub 2016 Aug 28.

The mechanical, physical and barrier properties of colourimetric starch-based films (CSBFs) were developed by adding natural polymers (chitosan, citric acid, carboxymethylcellulose, and kraft fibre). Novel volatile compound indicator films were prepared from starch (as a film matrix with 30%...

INTRODUCTION: Since 1961 the use of Cation Exchange Resins has been the mainstream treatment for chronic hyperkalemia. For the past 25 years different kind of complications derived from its clinical use have been recognized, being the colonic necrosis the...

Tunable hygromorphism: structural implications of low molecular weight gels and electrospun nanofibers in bilayer composites.

Soft matter

Alexander SL, Korley LT.
PMID: 27411849
Soft Matter. 2016 Dec 21;13(1):283-291. doi: 10.1039/c6sm00749j.

This investigation highlights the potential for electrospun nanofiber mats and self-assembled nanofiber networks to be interfaced synergistically to induce hygromorphic behaviour. Control poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) electrospun active layers and 1,3:2,4-di-p-methylbenyliedene sorbitol (MDBS) self-assembled passive layers encapsulated in an ethylene...

Microbial production of Propionic and Succinic acid from Sorbitol using Propionibacterium acidipropionici.

AMB Express

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med. 2015;2015:925096. doi: 10.1155/2015/925096. Epub 2015 Jun 14.

Aspergillus spp. produce a wide variety of diseases. For the treatment of such infections, the azoles and Amphotericin B are used in various formulations. The treatment of fungal diseases is often ineffective, because of increases in azole resistance and...

Crystallization and Properties of NADPH-Dependent L-Sorbose Reductase from Gluconobacter melanogenus IFO 3294.

Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry

Adachi O, Ano Y, Moonmangmee D, Shinagawa E, Toyama H, Theeragool G, Lotong N, Matsushita K.
PMID: 27373916
Biosci Biotechnol Biochem. 1999;63(12):2137-43. doi: 10.1271/bbb.63.2137.

NADPH-Dependent L-sorbose reductase (SORD, synonimously NADP-dependent D-srobitol dehydrogenase) was purified and crystallized for the first time from the cytosolic fraction of Gluconobacter melanogenus IFO 3294. The enzyme catalyzed oxidoreduction between D-sorbitol and L-sorbose in the presence of NADP or...

Suppression of IgM Proteolysis by Conformational Stabilization Through Excipients.

Scientia pharmaceutica

Mueller M, Loh MQ, Gagnon P.

Sci Pharm. 2015 Mar 04;83(2):401-10. doi: 10.3797/scipharm.1501-12. Print 2015.

Protease activity from host cell lines may cause product loss or affect the quality of recombinant proteins. In this study, we showed that excipients like glycine and sorbitol reduce the proteolysis of an immunoglobulin M (IgM) in the presence...

Metabolic Changes in Synechocystis PCC6803 upon Nitrogen-Starvation: Excess NADPH Sustains Polyhydroxybutyrate Accumulation.

Metabolites

Metabolites. 2013 Feb 06;3(1):101-18. doi: 10.3390/metabo3010101.

Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a common carbon storage polymer among heterotrophic bacteria. It is also accumulated in some photoautotrophic cyanobacteria; however, the knowledge of how PHB accumulation is regulated in this group is limited. PHB synthesis in Synechocystis sp. PCC...
