Effect of vegetable by-products on folate production by starter and probiotic microorganisms to develop a bio-enriched fermented soy product

However, folate production was strain-dependent and also dependent on the environmental conditions and on the vegetable substrate used. Passion fruit by-product presented the lowest folate concentration and was selected for the following experiments. Thus, the impact of the supplementation of soymilk wit...

Cuantificación de trazas de soja con kits de ELISA en galletitas y productos extrudidos

Se evaluó la detección de trazas de soja en sistemas modelo (SM) de galletitas y extrudidos que contenían 5000, 250, 100, 50, 25, 10, 5 y 0 ppm de concentrado de proteína de soja (CPS). Se analizaron, además, dos lotes diferentes de ocho clases de galletitas comerciales y dos tipos de extrudidos que...

Antifungal and antioxidant activity of fatty acid methyl esters from vegetable oils

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (3), 2017
ABSTRACT Fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) were obtained from vegetable oils of soybean, corn and sunflower. The current study was focused on evaluating the antifungal activity of FAMEs mainly against Paracoccidioides spp., as well as testing the interaction of these compounds with commercial antifungal d...

Biological parameters of three Trichogramma pretiosum strains (Riley, 1879) (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) on eggs Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner, 1805) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Acta sci., Biol. sci; 39 (3), 2017
This project has an objective to study the biological parameters of Trichogramma pretiosum on eggs of H. armigera. The three strains of T. pretiosum were evaluated: TM, TMC and TLEM, from different places. The experimental establishing was completely randomizing with twenty repeats per treatment, being u...

Biological performance of the predatory mite Neoseiulus idaeus (Phytoseiidae): a candidate for the control of tetranychid mites in Brazilian soybean crops

Braz. j. biol; 77 (2), 2017
Abstract The soybean (Glycine max (L.): Fabaceae) is considered the most important agricultural crop in Brazil. Phytophagous tetranychid mites as Mononychellus planki McGregor, Tetranychus ludeni Zacher and T. urticae Koch have been considered pest in soybean crops. Neoseiulus idaeus Denmark & Muma (...

Avaliação nutricional e energética da soja integral tostada para frangos de corte

Objetivou-se determinar a composição química, os valores energéticos e os coeficientes de digestibilidade ileal verdadeira de aminoácidos de sojas integrais tostadas de cinco regiões. No primeiro experimento, foram utilizados 288 pintos de corte machos da linhagem Cobb 500, com 13 dias de idade e p...

Características produtivas, carcaça, cortes e resposta imune humoral de frangos de corte alimentados com diferentes fontes de óleo e vitamina E

A adição de óleos na dieta de frangos de corte proporciona muitas vantagens, visto que, dependendo do perfil de ácidos graxos, pode melhorar o desempenho e atuar como estimulante do sistema imune. Assim, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar as características produtivas, o rendimento de carcaça, ...

Exogenous enzyme complex prevents intestinal soybean meal-induced enteritis in Mugil liza (Valenciennes, 1836) juvenile

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (1), 2017
ABSTRACT Four soybean meal-based diets containing increasing levels of an enzyme complex (E50, E100, E150 and E200 at 50, 100, 150 and 200 g ton-1, respectively) and one soybean meal-based diet without the enzyme complex (E0) were fed in triplicate to M. liza juveniles in a semi-static flow system with 2...

Selected lactobacilli and bifidobacteria development in solid state fermentation using soybean paste

Rev. argent. microbiol; 49 (1), 2017
At present, consumers are looking for more natural foods so as to improve health through their active compounds. Within this context, soybean is an excellent substrate due to its beneficial effects on consumers' health. Moreover, lactic cultures are widely used in the food industry to improve the technol...

Construction of an RNAi vector for knockdown of GM-ACS genes in the cotyledonary nodes of soybean

Background: Ethylene plays an important role in the regulation of floral organ development in soybean, and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase (ACS) is a rate-limiting enzyme for ethylene biosynthesis. However, whether ACS also regulates floral organ differentiation in soybean remains unknown. To ...
