Item Treatment of soy milk with Debaryomyces hansenii cells immobilised in alginate(Food Chemistry, 2009-05-15) Souza Júnior, Waldeck Campanha de; Rezende, Sebastião Tavares de; Viana, Pollyanna Amaral; Falkoski, Daniel Luciano; Reis, Angélica Pataro; Machado, Solimar Gonçalves; Barros, Everaldo Gonçalves de; Guimarães, Valéria MontezeWhole cells of Debaryomyces hansenii UFV-1 were permeabilised with ethanol and immobilised in calcium alginate hydrogel. The optimum pH and temperature for α-galactosidase activities of permeabilised free (PFC) and permeabilised immobilised cells (PIC) were 4.5 and 60 °C; and 4.0 and 70 °C, respectively. PIC α-galactosidase was more stable than that of PFC. The incubation of PIC at 60 and 70 °C promoted an increase in α-galactosidase activity. The α-galactosidase activity was maintained when PIC was used in three repeated batches. The Km values for PIC and PFC α-galactosidases, with ρNPαGal, were 0.82 mM and 0.30 mM, respectively. Soy milk treatment with PIC for 6 h at 60 °C promoted 100% hydrolysis of raffinose oligosaccharides.Item Covalent immobilization of α-Galactosidase from Penicillium griseoroseum and its application in Oligosaccharides Hydrolysis(Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2008-10-21) Falkoski, Daniel Luciano; Guimarães, Valéria Monteze; Queiroz, Marisa Vieira de; Araújo, Elza Fernandes de; Almeida, Maíra Nicolau de; Barros, Everaldo Gonçalves de; Rezende, Sebastião Tavares dePartially purified α-Galactosidase from Penicillium griseoroseum was immobilized onto modified silica using glutaraldehyde linkages. The effective activity of immobilized enzyme was 33%. Free and immobilized α-galactosidase showed optimal activity at 45 °C and pH values of 5 and 4, respectively. Immobilized α-galactosidase was more stable at higher temperatures and pH values. Immobilized α-galactosidase from P. griseoroseum maintained 100% activity after 24 h of incubation at 40 °C, while free enzyme showed only 32% activity under the same incubation conditions. Defatted soybean flour was treated with free and immobilized α-galactosidase in batch reactors. After 8 h of incubation, stachyose was completely hydrolyzed in both treatments. After 8 h of incubation, 39% and 70% of raffinose was hydrolyzed with free and immobilized α-galactosidase respectively. Immobilized α-galactosidase was reutilized eight times without any decrease in its activity.Item Biochemical composition and indigestible oligosaccharides in Phaseolus vulgaris L. seeds(Plant Foods for Human Nutrition, 2006-06-20) Fialho, Lílian da Silva; Guimarães, Valéria Monteze; Barros, Everaldo Gonçalves de; Moreira, Maurilio Alves; Dias, Luiz Antônio dos Santos; Oliveira, Maria Goreti de Almeida; José, Inês Chamel; Rezende, Sebastião Tavares deCommon beans have a high nutritional value, but contain galactooligosaccharides (GO), which cause flatulence and intestinal discomfort in humans. The biochemical composition of ten bean cultivars was determined to select those of high protein and low GO contents. The cultivars varied in carbohydrate (47.02–60.17%), GO (3.12 – 5.71%), protein (22.17–33.50%), lipid (1.13–1.81%), moisture (11.42–12.93%) and ash contents (4.08–5.61%). ‘Mexico 222’ presented the highest α-galactosidase activity. Protein and GO contents were positively correlated. ‘Perry Marrow’ combined high protein and low GO concentrations, indicating it can be used in improvement programs aiming at high-quality cultivars for human consumption.
