fungal and bacterial amylase may be due to the different environments that each enzyme is naturally found in. Bacillus licheniformis is found in a wider range of environments so its enzymes have to survive a higher range of temperatures. Where as Aspergillus oryzae is found in lower temperature habitats preventing its enzymes from tolerating a wider range of temperatures (Hideki‚ 1982). At 75°-85 °C no starch was hydrolyzed because the fungal enzyme denatured. If both bacterial and fungal enzymes were

------------------------------------------------- Introduction Cystic fibrosis (also called CF or mucoviscidosis) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder that affects most critically the lungs‚ and also the pancreas‚ liver‚ and intestine. It is characterized by abnormal transport of chloride and sodium across an epithelium‚ leading to thick‚ viscous secretions. The name refers to the characteristic scarring (fibrosis) and cyst formation within the pancreas that was first recognized in the

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Food is one of human sources of calorie‚ protein‚ fats‚ and nutrition. Yet‚ because of the highly nutritious content‚ food is susceptible to growth of microorganisms. By the presence of microorganisms in food‚ the food is more likely to have shorter shelf life. Thus‚ mostly it is resolved by the addition of antimicrobial substances to food‚ such as condiments and preservatives. Condiments and preservatives could inhibit the growth of microorganisms

acid to regenerate the citric acid. Fermentation of sugar by the mold Aspergillus niger is the chief commercial source of the acid. It is added to some foods and beverages to produce pleasant acid flavor; It is also used in medicines‚ in making blueprint paper‚ in textile printing‚ and as a polishing agents for metals. Citric acid is the product of fermentation of numerous organisms.However‚certain strains of the fungus Aspergillus niger produce commercially high yield of citric acid from a variety

The two amylases that are used in the experiment is Aspergillus oryzae and Bacillus licheniformis. B. lichenformis is classified as bacteria that can be seen in soil‚ and is usually transported through a bird’s feathers or plumage. A. oryzae is a type of mold‚ or fungi‚ that is utilized for Asian food production‚ which could include the fermentation of soybeans. The student is required to discover the optimal temperatures for both‚ Aspergillus oryzae (Fungal) and Bacillus licheniformis (bacteria)

CHAPTER I Introduction Background of the Study A lot of our citizens are dependent on commercially available fungicides to control fungi growth at homes and businesses. However‚ most of these products are costly and contain dangerous chemicals that may harm human health and other organisms. The intention of this investigatory project is to manufacture an indigenous product that is effective‚ innocuous‚ and affordable to eradicate fungi‚ specifically bread molds. Mold is something that

Peanuts: Food Quality and Evaluation Introduction Peanuts (Arachis hypogaea) are one of the most versatile crops produced in the world. Also known as ‘groundnuts’‚ they serve as a major ingredient rather than a whole product. Peanuts contain over thirty essential nutrients and phytonutrients. They are a great source of Vitamin E‚ niacin‚ unsaturated fats‚ folate‚ fiber‚ magnesium‚ phosphorus‚ manganese‚ antioxidants‚ and protein. Research has shown that peanuts‚ and most fruits‚ contain
