Barley use as flour is attracting interest. However, the factors affecting barley batter and dough rheological properties related to water adding ratio adjustment are unclear. To promote development of products, we aimed clarify that influence properties. This study focused on particle properties, including not only size its distribution, but also damaged starch void fraction. Three samples different were ground by a hammer mill using nominal screen opening sizes mounted mill. The effect...
The roles of aromatic residues in redox regulation cytochrome c3 were investigated by site-directed mutagenesis at every residue except for axial ligands (Phe20, Tyr43, Tyr65, Tyr66, His67, and Phe76). mutations Phe20 induced large chemical shift changes the NMR signals hemes 1 3, microscopic potentials 3. 3 also affected. Analysis nature revealed that a hydrophobic environment aromaticity are important reduction respectively. There was global effect. replacement Tyr66 with leucine heme 4,...
Egg-yolk protein hydrolysate (YPp) is an alternative source in formulas for infants with intolerance to cow's milk or soyabean protein, patients intestinal disorders. However, the nutritional value of YPp has never been investigated. was prepared by enzymic hydrolysis delipidated yolk which led average peptide length 2.6 residues. Three experiments were performed. In Expt 1, we compared absorption rate and (SPp) rats. SPp solutions injected into duodenum anaesthetized rats blood samples...
Tempura is a dish of battered and deep-fried foods, wheat flour typically used; however, barley, buckwheat, Job’s tears have an antioxidant capacity. This study investigated whether replacing with flours from these three crops in tempura affects the capacity deterioration frying oil. Radical scavenging activity polyphenol content were measured by chemiluminescence-based assay Folin–Denis method, respectively. The peroxide value, p-anisidin acid polar compound oil used as indexes post-frying...
This study investigated the association between personality traits and food stockpiling for disasters in predicted high-risk areas of shortages due to Nankai Trough Earthquake. survey was conducted December 18 20, 2019, using a web-based questionnaire. The participants were 1,200 individuals registered with an online company. analyzed Big Five status (n = 1192). assess five basic dimensions (i.e., extraversion, conscientiousness, agreeableness, neuroticism, openness). To measure theses...
Canine epidermal growth factor (EGF)/urogastrone was partially purified from dog urine by fractional precipitation with (NH4)2SO4, ion-exchange chromatography DEAE-cellulose DE-52, gel filtration Sephadex G-50, and a second DE-52 chromatography, to yield receptor-competing activity equivalent 13 micrograms of standard mouse EGF/litre starting urine. The purification monitored competitive radioreceptor assay using fixed monolayers A431 cells. canine EGF/urogastrone demonstrated...
Tempura coating that is fried with wheat flour batter should have crispy texture; however, the gluten present in prevents development of a favorable texture. Thus, we prepared tempura using barley flour, buckwheat or Job's tears which do not form structure. Their quality and palatability were compared to normal rice waxy rice, are gluten-free grains, addition flour. We focused on changes over time texture was an issue tempura. hypothesized involved moisture absorption from ingredients, aimed...
Fermented Tartary buckwheat tea is a beverage prepared by infusing seeds that have been fermented with Aspergillus. This study investigated changes in the components and radical scavenging activity of before after fermentation. Our results indicated free peptide forms amino acids allergens samples fermentation decreased 0.4-, 0.5-, 0.1-fold fermentation, respectively. However, levels glucose maltose increased 9.3- 18.3-fold Furthermore, total polyphenol content 1.3-fold which showed high...
This study clarifies the association between disaster knowledge levels and beginning to stockpile food at home as a preparedness. survey was conducted 18-20 December 2019 using self-administered web-based questionnaire. The participants were recruited from panel members of an online company. A total 1,200 adults living in five Japanese prefectures with highest predicted shortages after anticipated Nankai Trough earthquake, took part study. Multivariable logistic regression analyses revealed...
In this study investigated the association between health practices and food stockpiling for disasters in predicted areas with a high risk of shortage due to Nankai Trough earthquake. A survey was conducted during 18–20 December 2019 using self-administered web-based questionnaire. total, 1200 individuals registered an online company participated study. The status analyzed (n = 998). 59.1% participants had poor Breslow’s seven practice scores (BHPS), 32.9% moderate score, 8.0% good score....
