Evaluation of microwave-assisted pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass immersed in alkaline glycerol for fermentable sugars production

A pretreatment with microwave irradiation was applied to enhance enzyme hydrolysis of corn straw and rice husk immersed in water, aqueous glycerol or alkaline glycerol. Native and pretreated solids underwent enzyme hydrolysis using the extract obtained from the fermentation of Myceliophthora heterothallica, comparing its efficiency with that of the commercial cellulose cocktail Celluclast (R). The highest saccharification yields, for both corn straw and rice husk, were attained when biomass was pretreated in alkaline glycerol, method that has not been previously reported in literature. Moreover, FTIR, TG and SEM analysis revealed a more significant modification in the structure of corn straw subjected to this pretreatment.Highest global yields were attained with the crude enzyme extract, which might be the result of its content in a great variety of hydrolytic enzymes, as revealed zymogram analysis. Moreover, its hydrolysis efficiency can be improved by its supplementation with commercial beta-glucosidase.

Recovery of anchovy (Engraulis anchoita) and whitemouth croaker (Micropogonias furnieri) proteins by alkaline solubilisation process

The aim of this study was to evaluate the physical, chemical, and functional properties of recovered proteins of anchovy (Engraulis anchoita) and whitemouth croaker (Micropogonias furnieri) through the process of alkaline solubilisation and isoelectric precipitation, using different solubilisation (NaOH and KOH) and precipitation (HCl and H3PO4) reagents. The tests showed high protein level, and the lowest lipid reduction (94.5%) was found in the recovered protein of anchovy, the lowest yield of the process was 76.1%. The highest whiteness (78.8 and 74.2) was found in whitemouth croaker proteins. The solubilisation of the recovered protein was studied in the pH range (3, 5, 7, 9, and 11). The maximum solubility was at pHs 3 and 11 and minimum solubility was at pH 5 in the species under study.

Artifactual oxidation of cholesterol during the analysis of cholesterol oxidation products: protective effect of antioxidants

To study the influence of the addition of various antioxidants and their combinations on the artifactual oxidation of cholesterol during analysis, 2 factorial experiments were performed in duplicate. In the first experiment, 2 amounts of the following antioxidants were assayed: ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) disodium salt (0 and 1 mg), pyrogallol (0 and 600 microg), and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT; 0 and 600 microg); in the second, EDTA disodium salt (0 and 1 mg), ascorbyl palmitate (0 and 600 microg), and BHT (0 and 600 microg). Under low oxidative conditions of dim light, evaporation of solvents at low temperatures, and cold saponification in darkness under nitrogen atmosphere, the addition of antioxidants showed no further protective effect. Furthermore, the presence of ascorbyl palmitate significantly increased the formation of cholesterol-5beta,6beta-epoxide, and 7beta-hydroxycholesterol.
