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:
An object of the present invention is to establish a method for actively suppressing the formation of acrylamide, which is formed by heating edible materials at a relatively high temperature, and uses thereof, and to provide more safe compositions such as foods, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and intermediates thereof. The present invention solves the above object by providing: a method for suppressing the formation of acrylamide, comprising the steps of incorporating an organic substance having an ability of suppressing the formation of acrylamide into an edible material having a possibility of forming acrylamide by heating and heating the resulting mixture, when heating the edible material; compositions such as foods, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and intermediates thereof, produced by the method, whose possibility of forming acrylamide is suppressed; and compositions such as foods, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and intermediates thereof, having an ability of suppressing the formation of acrylamide, comprising an organic substance having an amino group(s) and/or saccharides having an ability of forming acrylamide and organic substance having an ability of suppressing the formation of acrylamide.

摘要:
A neuro-function regulatory agent with lesser side effects, comprising glycosyl vitamin P as an effective ingredient. When administered to patients with nerve diseases, the agent exerts a remarkable effect on the relief of patients' symptoms accompanied by nerve diseases.
摘要:
The object of the present invention is to provide a powdery product comprising crystalline β-maltose monohydrate which is powderized by spray method, and has a high-solubility in aqueous solvents and a satisfactory handleability, and to its preparation and uses. The present invention solves the above object by establishing a powdery product comprising crystalline β-maltose monohydrate which comprises 7% (w/w) or more but less than 14% (w/w) (x-anomeric maltose, and has a crystallinity of 62% or more but less than 72%; a process for producing thereof which comprises the steps of producing a massecuite from an aqueous maltose solution comprising 86% (w/w) or more but less than 93% (w/w) of maltose and 2% (w/w) or more of glucose, on a dry solid basis, powderizing by a spray method, keeping in a relatively low humidity and a relatively high temperature, and further keeping in a relatively high humidity- and a relatively low temperature-condition; and uses thereof for various compositions such as foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
摘要:
Disclosed are a novel desiccant containing a non-reducing anhydrous trehalose as an effective ingredient; a dehydration of hydrous matters, e.g. food products, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, therewith; and dehydrated products obtained by the dehydration. Such hydrous matters are dehydrated without causing alteration or deterioration by incorporating anhydrous trehalose into the hydrous matters to convert the anhydrous trehalose into hydrous crystalline trehalose. The anhydrous trehalose are anhydrous crystalline trehalose and hydrous amorphous trehalose.
