Yacon (Polymnia sanchifolia) extract as a substrate to produce inulinase by Kluyveromyces marxianus var. bulgaricus

The inulinase production by yeast K marxianus var. bulgaricus growing in yacon extract was investigated. The microorganism showed good development in yacon, higher enzymatic activities were achieved at 30% and 40% (v/v) of extract. The cultivation temperature (20, 25, 30, 35, 40 degreesC) neither influenced the growth or the enzymatic activity. The optimum cultivation pH was 3.5. The highest activity was observed at 60 degreesC and pH 4.0. At temperature of 55 C and 60 C occurred sharp decrease in the enzyme activity. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Primeiro registro de predação de Poecilia reticulata Peters, 1859 e Phalloceros caudimaculatus (Hensel, 1868) por Noctilio leporinus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Chiroptera, Noctilionidae)

Noctilio leporinus (Chiroptera, Noctilionidae) has adaptations to piscivorous feeding habits, but also consumes crustaceans and insects. Between June 2005 and May 2006, bats were surveyed with mist nets during two evenings per month in the gallery forest of Corrego dos Tenentes, Pindorama, São Paulo State, Brazil. The objectives were to collect fecal samples and identify the fish species that were consumed by N. leporinus in this fragmented forest landscape. We documented two new fish species to its diet, the guppy Poecilia reticulata, Peters, 1859 and the "guaru" Phalloceros caudimaculatus (Hensel, 1868). Both fish species forage near the surface of water for insects and zooplankton, which is an area also utilized by N. leporinus when foraging for insects, crustaceans and fishs.
