Through single factor tests and orthogonal tests, this study investigated the effects of extraction time, extraction temperature, enzyme concentration, pH value, and solidliquid ratio on the extraction rate of indigo pigment. The results showed that the extraction rate of indigo reached the highest(0.218%) when the solid-liquid ratio was 1:20, enzyme concentration was 6 g/L, pH value was 5, extraction temperature was 50℃, and extraction time was 3 h. The method had greatly shortened the extraction time, simplified the extraction process, and improved the extraction efficiency while producing little pollution and meeting the green environmental protection requirements.展开更多

Methods: Absorbance before uricase action (Δ0) was estimated by extrapolation with given lag time of steady-state reaction. With Km fixed at 12.5μmol/L, background absorbance (Δb) was predicted by nonlinearly fitting integrated Michaelis-Menten equation to Candida utilis uricase reaction curve. Uric acid in reaction solution was determined by the difference (ΔA) between Δ0 and Δb. Results .Ab usually showed deviation 〈3% from direct assay with residual substrate done fifth of initial substrate for analysis. ΔA showed CV 〈5% with resistance to common interferences except xanthine, and it linearly responded to uric acid with slope consistent to the absorptivity of uric acid. The lower limit was 2.0 μmol/L and upper limit reached 30 μmol/L in reaction solution with data monitored within 8 min reaction at 0. 015 U/ml uricase. Preliminary application to serum and urine gave better precision than the direct equilibrium method without the removal of proteins before analysis. Conclusion .This kinetic method with background predicted by the integrated method was reliable for enzymatic analysis, and it showed resistance to common interferences and enhanced efficiency at much lower cost.展开更多

With aqueous extraction of soybean oil-containing protein, the highest yield of oil was 96.1% at the optimized conditions studied. Soybean oil-containing protein was hydrolyzed and resulted in releasing part of oil. The separated protein that contained 40% oil was enriched due to its adsorption capacity of released oil, the average oil extraction yeild reached 93.5%. Then the high oil content protein was hydrolyzed again to release oil by enzyme, the oil extraction yeild was 80.4%. As a result, high quality of soybean oil was obtained and the content of total oil yield was 74.4%.展开更多

METHODS Fasting blood samples were taken from diabetic patients attending our clinic for their regular annual examination, including laboratory measurement of serum creatinine and eGFR.RESULTS Our results indicated an overall excellent agreement in CKD staging(kappa = 0.918) between the Jaffé serum creatinine-and enzymatic serum creatinine-based CKDEPI-eGFR, with 9% of discordant cases. As compared to the enzymatic creatinine, the majority of discordances(8%) were positive, i.e., associated with the more advanced CKD stage re-classification, whereas only 1% of cases were negatively discordant if Jaffé creatinine was used for eGFR calculation. A minor proportion of the discordant cases(3.5%) were re-classified into clinically relevant CKD stage indicating mildly to moderately decreased kidney function(< 60 m L/min per 1.73 m^2). Significant acute and chronic hyperglycaemia, assessedas plasma glucose and Hb A1 c levels far above the recommended glycaemic goals, was associated with positively discordant cases. Due to a very low frequency, positive discordance is not likely to present a great burden for the health-care providers, while intensified medical care may actually be beneficial for the small number of discordant patients. On the other hand, a very low proportion of negatively discordant cases(1%) at the 60 m L/min per 1.73 m^2 eGFR level indicate a negligible possibility to miss the CKD diagnosis, which could be the most prominent clinical problem affecting patient care, considering high risk of CKD for adverse patient outcomes. CONCLUSION This study indicate that compensated Jaffé creatinine procedure, in spite of the glucose-dependent bias, is not inferior to enzymatic creatinine in CKD diagnosis/staging and therefore may provide a reliable and cost-effective tool for the renal function assessment in diabetic patients.展开更多
