Many enzymes produced by fungi have relevant biotechnological applications in several industrial areas. The purpose of this study was to collect and isolate filamentous from soil humus, plants sugar cane bagasse different regions the São Paulo state. Forty isolates were examined for their ability produce xylanase, glucose-oxidase, alkaline phosphatase, acid phytase, pectinase amylase. Among these, twenty three exhibited enzymatic potential. xylanases two these (Aspergillus caespitosus A....

Production of pigments by filamentous fungi is gaining interest owing to their use as food colourants, in cosmetics and textiles, because the important biological activities these compounds. In this context, objectives study were select pigment-producing fungi, identify based on internal transcribed spacer sequences, evaluate growth pigment production selected strains four different media, characterize major coloured metabolites extracts. Of fungal strains, eight identified Aspergillus...

Efficient, low-cost enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic residues is essential for cost-effective production bioethanol. The β-glucosidase, β-xylosidase and xylanase by Colletotrichum graminicola was optimized using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Maximal occurred in wheat bran. Sugarcane trash, peanut hulls corncob enhanced production, respectively. levels after optimization reached 159.3 ± 12.7 U g-1, 128.1 6.4 g-1 378.1 23.3 respectively, but the enzymes were produced...

Hookworm infection stands out for its worldwide distribution and veterinary public health relevance. Based on copromicroscopic examinations polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region, we assessed, respectively, prevalence intestinal parasites identification canine hookworm species in faeces recovered from 278 dogs living households an inland municipality São Paulo State, Brazil. Intestinal were found 67.3% was at highest rate (56.6%), followed by Toxocara...

SUMMARY Giardia duodenalis is a common intestinal parasite infecting children attending daycare centres. This study aimed to verify occurrence and the genotypes of isolates aged 0–6 years workers at centre in state São Paulo, Brazil. The families who tested positive for , were asked provide stool samples from household members their dogs. Samples (123 children, 14 employees, 44 members, 19 after treatment, 20 dogs) examined parasites using concentration methods. DNA extracted all was...

Entomopathogenic fungi, such as Metarhizium anisopliae, are able to control various insect pests. These fungi attack the integument of host using an enzymatic complex. Among enzymes found in this complex, chitinase is important component. However, relation between production and virulence from different M. anisopliae strains has not been analyzed. In manuscript it presented by four with potential Solid-State Fermentation silkworm chrysalis substrate. The higher level was obtained strain IBCB...

Milk whey proteins are well known for their high biological value and versatile functional properties, characteristics that allow its wide use in the food pharmaceutical industries. In this work, a 24 kDa protein from buffalo cheese was analyzed by mass spectrometry presented homology with Bos taurus beta-lactoglobulin. addition, present were hydrolyzed pepsin different combinations of trypsin, chymotrypsin carboxypeptidase-A. When TNBS method used obtained hydrolysates DH 55 62% H1 H2,...

In most of the raw materials plant origin used in animal feed, a portion phosphorus is stored as phytic acid or phytate. Phytate main storage form vegetables but not readily assimilated into food at low concentrations enzyme phytase. addition to making phosphorous unavailable, phytate binds divalent cations such calcium, copper, magnesium, iron, manganese and zinc, preventing absorption these nutrients gut animal. Phytase promotes hydrolysis phosphorus-releasing molecule, thereby increasing...
