The present invention is directed to methods for inducing desired activity in enzymes or microorganisms capable of producing the enzymes. The invention is further directed to methods of stabilizing activity in microorganisms. In specific embodiments, the invention provides methods for inducing and stabilizing nitrile hydratase activity, amidase activity, and asparaginase I activity. The invention further provides compositions comprising enzymes or microorganisms having induced and/or stabilized activity.

An exemplary embodiment providing one or more improvements includes feeding animals with probiotic microbes encapsulated in a mixture of xanthan gum and chitosan, or in gelatin, specifically Pediococcus acidilactici and Saccharomyces boulardii. Such encapsulation protects the viability of the probiotic microbes against unfavorable temperatures. An exemplary embodiment providing one or more improvements includes methods of using viable probiotics in therapy of birds and mammals infected with infectious diseases. Probiotics acted as adjuvants in stimulating antibody reaction and stimulated a cellular immunity response. In particular, probiotics were shown to reduce the number of viable oocytes from fecal samples, stimulate antibody production, and stimulate of proliferation of splenocytes in chickens infected with Elimeria. In addition, probiotics were shown to relieve symptoms of parvovirus infection in dogs.
摘要:
Provided are a novel Candida tropicalis CJ-FID (KCTC 10457BP) derived from honey and a method for producing xylitol using the same. The method includes culturing the Candida tropicalis CJ-FID itself or an alginate-immobilized Candida tropicalis CJ-FID in a fermentation medium containing high concentration xylose and sucrose to obtain xylitol-containing culture, followed by purification with an activated charcoal column and anion column, to finally obtain a powdery xylitol. Therefore, high purity xylitol can be produced with high yield and productivity.

An exemplary embodiment providing one or more improvements includes feeding pets with probiotic microbes encapsulated in a mixture of xanthan gum and chitosan, or in gelatin, specifically Pediococcus acidilactici and Saccharomyces boulardii. Such encapsulation protects the viability of the probiotic microbes against unfavorable temperatures. Such feeding has the benefit of reducing odors, and improving digestion in pets which have these problems.
摘要:
Provided is a bacteria culture carrier in which a polymer product having a trace element and an inorganic nutrient salt for growth of bacteria included therein is laminated by being held with an inorganic porous material. This carrier is useful in a bioreactor or wastewater disposal with a high activity and a high density of bacteria.
摘要:
High solubility film product comprising a starch and/or a cellulose and at least one bacterium or enzyme chosen from those necessary for milk fermentation, coagulation or curdling.
摘要:
A material or mixture of materials which is not itself storage stable is rendered storage stable by incorporation into a water-soluble or swellable glassy or rubbery composition which can then be stored at ambient temperature. Recovery is by adding aqueous solution to the composition.
摘要:
A solid active, sensitive encapsulant and/or a liquid encapsulant component which contains an active, sensitive encapsulant, is admixed with at least one plasticizable matrix material, a matrix component which is substantially non-plasticizable at temperatures lower than the decomposition temperature of the encapsulant and which increases the rate of release of the encapsulant from the matrix, and a liquid plasticizer to obtain a formable, extrudable, cuttable, mixture or dough. The matrix material is plasticized by the liquid plasticizer and the encapsulation of the active encapsulant, such as a live microorganism or an enzyme, is accomplished at a low temperature and under low shear conditions. The active component is encapsulated and/or embedded in the plasticizable matrix component or material in a continuous process to produce discrete, solid particles. The formable mixture may be obtained without or substantially no cooking or gelatinizing of the matrix ingredients. A solid encapsulant may be dry-blended with the plasticizable matrix material and the substantially non-plasticizable matrix material, followed by plasticization of the plasticizable matrix material.
摘要:
The present invention relates to enzyme-containing granules comprising (a) an enzyme and (b) a core which intrinsically is capable of absorbing at least 5% w/w (based on the weight of the core) of water and to processes for the production of such granules comprises (a) contacting absorbent cores, capable of absorbing at least 5% w/w (based on the weight of the core) of water, with a liquid medium, such as an aqueous medium, containing an enzyme in dissolved and/or dispersed form, the amount of the liquid medium employed being such that substantially no attendant agglomeration of the resulting product occurs; and (b) at least partially removing volatile components of the liquid medium from the resulting product.
