Silva, Gracilaria textorii (Suringar) DeToni, Plocamium telfairiae Harv., Dictyopteris divaricata (Okam.) Okam, Ulval pertusa and En- teromorpha intestinalis (L.)

The waste of tapioca industries consists of two kinds, which were liquid waste and solid waste. Further more, tapioca solid waste treatment was ineffective. Weather solid waste produced from the extraction process still contains high concentration of starch that can be used to produce high quality product, for example, bio ethanol or other alternative energy sources. Objective of these experimental work was utilizing solid waste of tapioca industries and looking for the exactly composition of n-amylase and gluco-amylase enzymes on the hydrolysis processes of the solid waste of tapioca. The exact composition from both enzymes can be expected to increase the yield of glucose. Variables of cx-amylase enzyme for this research were 0.3% (w/w) and 0.5% (w/w) with liquefaction time were 1 hour and 1.5 hours, and variables of glucoamylase enzyme were 0.3% (w/w) and 0.5% (w/w). To achieve these goals, the experimental work was held in laboratory scale with batch process. Firstly, tapioca solid waste was pretreated at 90 ~C and added u-amylase enzyme for 1 hour and 1.5 hours (variable of liquefaction time). Then, substrate was cooled down to 60 ~C added with proposed variables of glucoamylase enzyme, and was analysed 24 hours after added. This experiment showed the best ratio between a-amylase and glucoamylase enzymes 0.5%:0.5% with 1 hour of liquefaction time. The highest glucose reaches 8.468% and yields 0.892 (g glucose/g starch) with starch conversion of 59.94%. KM = 0.0468 g/mL and rmax = 0.311 g/mL·h,展开更多

Glutaral- dehyde and aminopropyltrimethoxysilane were used as linking agents, and chitosan was used to immobilize the composites onto the GCE surface. The ECL sensor presented good characteristics in terms of stability and reproducibility. Under opti- mized conditions, the linear response of ECL intensity to glucose concentration was valid in the range of 0.2 to 20 mmol/L (R2 = 0.9962). The application results indicated that the proposed approach is with great potential in the determination of glucose.展开更多

Three parameters (temperature, time, and liquid/solid ratio) affecting the extraction of TFPP were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Under the optimized conditions, the yield of TFPP was predicted to be 4.98%. The physicochemical properties, in vitro antioxidant activities, and inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase of frac- tionated TFPPs (TFPP-0, TFPP-20, TFPP-40, and TFPP-60) were investigated. We found that the TFPPs were all acid protein-bound heteropolysaccharides, although with different chemical compositions. They had not only re- markable scavenging activity on 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) and reducing activity, but also excellent inhibitory potential against α-glucosidase in vitro. Our results suggest that tea fruit peel could be treated as a potential bioresource for the development of polysaccharide antioxidants.展开更多

Because of their good electronic properties, biocompatibility and high surface area, graphene-Pt based composites achieved the direct electron transfer of redox enzyme and maintained their bioactivity well. The graphene-Pt nanocomposites were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED). The amperometric biosensor fabricated by depositing glucose oxidase over Nafion-solubilized graphene-Pt electrode retained its biocatalytic activity and has offered fast and sensitive glucose quantification.展开更多
