Opis:
The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of feed supplements with alfa-amylase and beta-glucanase (Optipartum C+ 200) on ingestive-related behaviour biomarkers registered with real-time sensors: rumination behaviours and reticulorumen parameters (pH and temperature). Cows (n=20) in the treatment group (TG) were fed with Optipartum C+ 200 (Enzymes feed supplement: Alfa-Amylase 57 Units; Beta-Glucanase 107 Units) from 21 days before calving until 30 days after calving with a feeding rate of 200 g/cow/day. Cows (n=22) in the control group (CG) were fed a feed ration without feed supplement. Measurements started from 6 days before calving and continued until 21 days after calving. The following indicators were registered: with the RumiWatch System: Rumination time; Eating time; Drinking time; Rumination chews; Eating chews; Drinking gulps; Bolus; Chews per minute; Chews per bolus. With the SmaXtec system: the temperature, pH of the contents of the cows’ reticulorumens, and cows’ walking activity. According to our results, feed supplementation with alfa-amylase and beta-glucanase (Optipartum C+ 200) in the TG group resulted in increases in the following parameters: 9% rumination time and eating time, 19% drinking time, 11% rumination chews, 16% eating chews, 13% number of boluses per rumination, 5% chews per minute and 16% chews per bolus. The rumination time showed a strong, positive relation with rumination chews and bolus indicators in both groups (TG and CG) (p<0.001); while the rumination time in both groups of cows showed an opposite direction and was negatively related to eating time and eating chews (p<0.05). We found a 1.28 % lower reticulorumen pH and a 0.64 % lower reticulorumen temperature in cows fed with the supplement compared with cows in the control group. Cows in TG were 8.80% more active than those in the CG group. For improvement of ingestive-related behaviour we suggest adding a feed supplement with alfa-amylase and beta-glucanase (Optipartum C+ 200).

Introduction and aim. Smoking widely affect oral health, including its role in the development of periodontitis. Saliva contains an antioxidant system and various enzymes. The study was designed to evaluate the activity of salivary alpha amylase among individuals who smoke and have periodontitis. Material and methods. A total of 100 participants were included, with 50 cases (cigarette smokers with periodontitis) and the remaining 50 nonsmokers with healthy periodontium as the control group. Saliva samples were collected to measure salivary alpha amylase activity. Results. Smokers with periodontitis had significantly higher levels of salivary alpha amylase compared to the control group(177.96±14.5 vs 94.04±19.6 IU/mL, p<0.001). Additionally, there was a weak negative correlation between the level of alpha amylase and the age of the patients (p=0.01, r=0.376). However, no correlation was found between the level of alpha amylase and the duration of smoking (p=0.584, r=0.079). Conclusion. There is a significant increase in salivary alpha amylase levels among smokers with periodontitis. No correlation was found between age and salivary alpha amylase levels. However, a weak positive correlation was observed between the duration of smoking and salivary alpha amylase activity.

Opis:
This study investigated the possibility of producing juice by hydrolyzing acha starch using crude amylase from germinated maize. Planted maize was monitored for seven days to determine germinative capacity and amylase activity of the seed. Extracted acha starch was hydrolysed using wet homogenised maize seedlings in an incubator at 62-68 °C for 6-8 hours. Colour, pH, titratable acidity (TTA), °Brix and sensory attribute of the juice were determined using standard method. A commercial malt beverage was used as reference. The maize sample had a mean capacity of 95% while its maximum amylase activity occurred at day 4. The pH, TTA, and °Brix of the juice were obtained as 4.5, 0.85 and 10 respectively. Colour values for L*, a*, and b* were 37.64, 7.6, and 15.3 respectively. Sensory analysis showed no significant difference between the juice and reference sample in terms of taste and colour. However, significant differences were observed in aroma and overall acceptability. Hence, malt beverages can be produced using this method but requires certain additives to impart prevalent aroma associated with malt beverages.

Opis:
Malting on a microtechnological scale was performed with the use of brewer's barley of Trumpf and Polon varieties and with the feed variety Diva, all from the 1982 crop. The highest α-amylase content was found in the Polon variety; this content in the Trumpf variety was lower by about 7%, while in the feed variety Diva it was lower by about 20%. The following conditions were found to favour the accumulation of α-amylase in malt containing no addition of gibberellic acid (g.a.): malted grain humidity - 46%, malting temperature - 18°C, time of malting - 7 days. When gibberellic acid was added in doses of 0.2-0.3 mg/kg barley and when pH of the water with g.a. ranged from 6.5 to 7.5, the mean increase of α-amylase content in the studied malt varieties was 54% as compared to control samples without g.a. In the case of the variety Diva this increase was 57%. The conditions of malting with an addition of g.a. that were worked out allow the production of brewer's malt from Diva barley.
Do słodowania w skali mikrotechnicznej użyto krajowe odmiany browarne jęczmienia: Trumpf i Polon oraz odmianę paszową Diva ze zbioru 1982 r. Określano wpływ zmienności warunków słodowania: namoczenie jęczmienia do 43 i 46%, czas słodowania 7 i 9 dni, pH wody z dodatkiem kwasu giberelinowego (K.G.) od 5,5 do 8,5, dawki K.G. w zakresie 0,2, 0,3 i 0,5 mg/kg. W doświadczalnych jęczmieniach oznaczano: wilgotność, ekstraktywność, białko ogółem, skrobię, wagę 1000 ziaren, celność ziarna i energię kiełkowania. Analiza słodów obejmowała: wilgotność, ekstraktywność w mące i śrucie, białko ogółem, białko taninowe, barwę brzeczki, liczbę Kolbacha, garbniki ogółem, lepkość brzeczki, azot α-aminokwasowy, zawartość α-amylazy (metodą maltozową Briggsa), siłę diastatyczną według Windisch-Kolbacha, zawartość endo-β-glukanazy i zawartość endopeptydaz. Najwyższe zawartości α-amylazy (tab. 2) dawała odmiana Polon (570 j. FS), niższe Trumpf (o ok. 7%), najniższe odmiana paszowa Diva (o ok. 20%). Za korzystne warunki nagromadzania α-amylazy w słodzie bez dodatku kwasu giberelinowego (K.G.) uznano: namoczenie ziarna do wilgotności ok. 46%, temperaturę słodowania ok. 18°C i czas słodowania 7 dni (tab. 2 i 3). Przy ilościach dodawanego kwasu giberelinowego od 0,2 do 0,3 mg/kg jęczmienia i pH wody z K.G. od 6,5 do 7,5 średni przyrost zawartości α-amylazy dla badanych odmian wynosił 54% w porównaniu z próbami kontrolnymi bez K.G. (tab. 5). Dla odmiany Diva przyrost ten wynosił 57%. Opracowane warunki słodowania z dodatkiem K.G. stwarzają możliwości produkcji z jęczmienia odmiany Diva słodu piwowarskiego.

Abstract: Dipsacus fullonum L. syn. D. sylvestris is a biennial plant from the Dipsacaceae family. It grows in Europe, North Africa and Asia Minor. It has been used in folk medicine mainly to treat Lyme disease. This study was undertaken to identify and compare the components of the essential oils from dried and fresh roots, which are usually applied as medicinal agents, as well as those of the essential oils from dried and fresh leaves, used less frequently. The essential oils from the Dipsacus fullonum leaves and roots were analysed by the GC and GC-MS analysis. 18 components were identified in the essential oil from the fresh leaves, whereas 37 were recognised in the oil from the dried leaves; 10 components were identified in the essential oil from the fresh roots and 40 in that from the dried roots. Phytol was the main component in the essential oil from the leaves, whereas n-hexadecanoic acid was predominant in the roots. The α -amylase inhibition has been proven for methanolic extracts of D. fullonum leaves and roots. The strongest activity was demonstrated by the extract from fresh leaves of D. fullonum and showed an effect about one hundred times weaker than acarbose.

As polycarbonate is frequently used in many products, its accumulation in landfills is absolutely harmful to the environment. The aims of this study were the screening and isolation of polycarbonate-degrading bacteria (PDB) and the assessment of their ability in the degradation of polycarbonate (PC) polymers. Nine-month buried- -PC films were used for PDB isolation and identification. The biodegradation ability of the isolates was determined by growth curve, clear zone formation, lipase and amylase production, AFM and FTIR. Bacillus cereus and Bacillus megaterium were identified and considered as PDB. The degradation ability of B. megaterium was significantly higher than that of B. cereus. Both were lipase and amylase positive. AFM and FTIR results showed the initiation of bacterial attachment. The PC biodegradation ability of isolates can be very efficient. Finding such efficient isolates (which was less studied before) will promise a decrease in plastic contamination in the future.

Opis:
The aim of this study was to determine the quantitative and qualitative changes in the starch complex and the amylolytic activity of wheat grain during its post-harvest maturity. This in- formation is necessary for the proper determination of the level of quality requirements for wheat grain purchased immediately after harvest. The common wheat cultivars: Kandela, Bamberka and KWS Ozon were tested during this study. Because of the variability of weather conditions, three wheat cultivars were tested (two winter wheat cultivars and one spring wheat cultivar) from two consecu- tive crop years. Immediately after grain harvest and during the next 12 weeks in two-weeks intervals the falling number, amylo- graph properties, rheological properties of dough and laboratory baking test was performed. Tested wheat cultivars were characterized by low amylolytic activity. Changes of the baking value of tested wheat cultivars during their post-harvest maturation were dependent on wheat cultivar and harvest year. Wheat from the 2016 harvest was char- acterized by significantly lower amylolytic activity compared to grain from 2015 harvest. Amylolytic activity decreased during post-harvest maturation, i.e. the falling number increased as well as the dough torque in point C4 and C5 of mixolab curve. There was also an increase in the volume of bread compared to the evaluation of the samples tested immediately after harvest. The highest values were obtained in the 4th week after harvest. The changes were dependent on wheat cultivar. However, in the case of the assessment of the rheological characteristics of the dough (except point C4) they were not statistically significant.

Introduction. The influence of infection with two species of entomopathogenic nematodes of Steinernematidae family on metabolism of glycogen and trehalose of the host was studied. Material and methods. Last instar larvae (L₇) of Galleria mellonella were experimentally infected with Steinernema affinis and S. feltiae. At 6, 12, 18 and 24 h after infection concentrations of trehalose and glycogen as well as activity of trehalase and α-amylase were determined. Results. The content of glycogen was lower in insects infected with S. feltiae than in the controls and animals infected with S. affinis. The content of trehalose was higher in insects from both infected groups than in the controls. Its concentration was slightly higher in larvae infected with S. affinis than in those infected with S. feltiae. The activity of α-amylase after infection with S. affinis was low. It was significantly higher in insects infected with S. feltiae. In animals of both infected groups, following a significant reduction at 6 h, the activity of trehalase remained at a similar level, higher than in the controls. In the paper the effects of infection with (i) different species of entomopathogenic nematodes and (ii) the importance of the developmental stage of the insect-host for changes in its metabolism of glycogen and trehalose were discussed.

Opis:
Starch-iodine assay method for the determination of α-amylase activity is also used in screening extracts for α-amylase inhibitors. However, there are indications that this method may not be appropriate for screening some classes of compounds or plant extracts. The present study investigated the limitation(s) of this method in screening plant extracts/compounds for α-amylase inhibition. A crude methanol extract (CR) of Dacryodes edulis, its solvent fractions (ethyl acetate (EA), aqueous methanol (AM), and hexane (HX)), quercetin (QC), and benzoic acid (BA) were used for this study. The phytochemical content and antioxidant activity were screened spectrophotometrically. α-Amylase inhibition (expressed in percentage and as IC50) was determined by starch-iodine method approach I and II (ST-ID I and ST-ID II, respectively) and dinitrosalicylic acid (DNSA) as the control method. The results showed that the extracts/compounds (AM, EA, and QC) with significantly high polyphenolic content, antioxidant activity, and starch-iodine complex decolorization effect yielded contrary results of α-amylase inhibition when the results of ST-ID I and II methods were compared to that of the DNSA method. The other test samples (CR, HX, and BA) yielded similar results for all the three methods. The result also showed the decolorization (%) of starch-iodine complex by the test samples correlated significantly (r = 0.877, P < 0.05) with DPPH reduction (%). In conclusion, the present study showed that the starch-iodine method is not appropriate for screening antioxidative extracts/compounds for α-amylase inhibitors – they decolorize the assay reagent in a manner similar to DPPH reduction and hence confound the result.

As part of the contribution to the global efforts in research of thermostable enzymes being of industrial interest, we focus on the isolation of thermophilic bacteria from Tunisian hot springs. Among the collection of 161 strains of thermophilic Bacillus isolated from different samples of thermal water in Tunisia, 20% are capable of growing at 100°C and the rest grow at 70°C or above. Preliminary activity tests on media supplemented with enzyme-substrates confirmed that 35 strains produced amylases, 37 - proteases, 43 - cellulases, 31 - xylanases and 37 - mannanases. The study of the effect of temperature on enzyme activity led to determination of the optimal temperatures of activities that vary between 60 and 100°C. Several enzymes were active at high temperatures (80, 90 and 100°C) and kept their activity even at 110°C. Several isolated strains producing enzymes with high optimal temperatures of activity were described for the first time in this study. Both strains B62 and B120 are producers of amylase, protease, cellulase, xylanase, and mannanase. The sequencing of 16S DNA identified isolated strains as Geobacillus kaustophillus, Aeribacillus pallidus, Geobacillus galactosidasus and Geobacillus toebii.

Opis:
The clinical assessment of autonomic nervous system (ANS) functioning, enabling the diagnosis of autonomic neuropathy present in the course of many diseases, is currently based on performing simple cardiovascular reflexes (Ewing tests), analyzing heart rate variability (HRV) or heart rate turbulence (HRT), examining skin sweating or recording neurophysiological tests (e.g. microneurography). Laboratory assessment of ANS function is very scarce and practically only includes the plasma assessment of noradrenaline as a surrogate for the biochemical indicator of sympathetic activity. Recently, the possibility of evaluation of selected compounds present in saliva as laboratory markers of not only oral diseases but also systemic diseases has been raised. This work focuses on a brief description of the anatomy and physiology of the salivary glands and describes the formation of saliva, its composition and the use of this bodily fluid in laboratory diagnostics. In addition, the paper specifically discusses the possibility of determining selected compounds that are considered to reflect autonomic activity. A review of the literature indicates primarily four proteomics: two neuropeptides (vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) that are co-transmitters in autonomic fibers, chromogranin A, a synaptic vesicle protein and α-amylase, a hydrolytic enzyme pre-digesting carbohydrates in the oral cavity. These are currently the most widely investigated agents for their usefulness as laboratory markers of ANS activity.

Opis:
trans-Chalcone is the core structure of naringenin chalcone, located halfway in the biosynthesis pathway of flavonoids. Flavonoids have been reported as mammalian alpha-amylase inhibitors, a property which could be useful in the management of postprandial hyperglycemia in diabetes and related disorders. As a mammalian alpha-amylase inhibitor in vitro, the putative beneficial effect of trans-chalcone on diabetes was tested in a streptozotocin-induced rat model of diabetes type 1, and the results analyzed with commonly used statistical methods. Significant reduction of blood glucose levels and beneficial effect on dyslipidemia were observed in diabetic rats, as well as reduction of disturbing consequences of diabetes such as high urine volume and water intake. trans-chalcone was observed to have a weight loss-inductive effect, alongside with a reduction in food intake, which is suggestive of a therapeutic potential of this compound in overweight and obese patients.
