摘要:
The object of the present invention is to provide an α-isomaltosylglucosaccharide-forming enzyme, process of the same, cyclotetrasaccharide, and saccharide composition comprising the saccharide which are obtainable by using the enzyme; and is solved by establishing an α-isomaltosylglucosaccharide-forming enzyme which forms a saccharide, having a glucose polymerization degree of at least three and having both the α-1,6 glucosidic linkage as a linkage at the non-reducing end and the α-1,4 glucosidic linkage other than the linkage at the non-reducing end, by catalyzing the α-glucosyl-transfer from a saccharide having a glucose polymerization degree of at least two and having the α-1,4 glucosidic linkage as a linkage at the non-reducing end without substantially increasing the reducing power; α-isomaltosyl-transferring method using the enzyme; method for forming α-isomaltosylglucosaccharide; process for producing a cyclotetrasaccharide having the structure of cyclo{ ® 6)-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 ® 3)-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 ® 6)-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 ® 3)-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1®} using both the α-isomaltosylglucosaccharide-forming enzyme and the α-isomaltosyl-transferring enzyme; and the uses of the saccharides obtainable therewith.
摘要:
The present invention aims to provide a particulate composition containing anhydrous crystalline 2-O- α -D-glucosyl-L-ascorbic acid having a significantly, hardly solidifiable property compared to conventional ones in a grade for use in quasi-drugs; a process for producing the same; and uses thereof. The present invention solves the above object by providing a particulate composition containing anhydrous crystalline 2-O- α -D-glucosyl-L-ascorbic in an amount of over 98.0% by weight but less than 99.9% by weight, on a dry solid basis; or a degree of crystallinity of 90% or higher for anhydrous crystalline 2-O- α -D-glucosyl-L-ascorbic acid, when calculated based on a profile of powder X-ray diffraction analysis of the particulate composition, and a dynamic vapor sorption level of 0.01% by weight or lower, when kept at 25°C under a relative humidity of 35% by weight for 12 hours after removal water in the particulate composition under nitrogen gas stream; and by providing a process for producing the same and uses thereof.
摘要:
A non-reducing saccharide-forming enzyme and a trehalose-releasing enzyme, which have an optimum temperature in a medium temperature range, i.e., a temperature of over 40 or 45°C but below 60°C; and an optimum pH in an acid pH range, i.e., a pH of less than 7. The two-types of enzymes can be obtained in a desired amount, for example, by culturing in a nutrient culture medium microorganisms capable of producing the enzymes or by recombinant DNA technology.
摘要:
A reduction inhibitory agent for active-oxygen eliminating activity which comprises trehalose as an effective ingredient, a method for inhibiting the reduction of active-oxygen eliminating activity which comprises incorporating either trehalose or the reduction inhibitory agent into plant edible products and/or plant antioxidants, and a composition where the reduction of active-oxygen eliminating activity of the plant edible products and/or plant antioxidants is satisfactorily inhibited by the method.
摘要:
Disclosed are a composition for inhibiting body odor which comprises trehalose and/or maltitol as an effective ingredient, a method for inhibiting body odor by using the composition, and an article incorporated with the composition.
摘要:
An agent for improving the blood circulation, which contains as an effective ingredient glycosyl vitamin P such as glycosyl hesperidin and glycosyl rutin. The agent improves the blood circulation in humans to effectively relieve muscular rigidity.
摘要:
A saccharide composition containing trehalulose, which is obtainable by allowing a maltose/trehalose converting enzyme to act on a sucrose solution to produce trehalulose, and collecting the resulting trehalulose-containing mixture. Since the enzyme converts sucrose into trehalulose in a relatively high yield and the conversion rate is controllable, a saccharide composition rich in trehalulose is readily obtained on an industrial scale.
摘要:
A polypeptide which has a molecular weight of 18,500±3,000 daltons on SDS-PAGE and a pI of 4.9±1.0 on chromatofocusing. The polypeptide strongly induces the IFN-γ production by immunocompetent cells with only a small amount, and dose not cause serious side effects even when administered to human in a relatively-high dose. It is readily prepared by using a monoclonal antibody obtained from hybridomas, and incorporated into agents for treating and/or preventing malignant tumors, viral diseases, bacterial infectious diseases, and immune diseases.
