Concurrent occurrence of α-amylase inhibitor and stimulator in red kidney bean seed: physiological implications

Biologia Plantarum, 2010
It is hypothesized that since protein α-amylase inhibitor (α-AI) and stimulator might be present together in red kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seeds, their in vitro interactions might influence their detection and quantification.

Characterization of purified α-amylase produced by Aspergillus terreus NCFT 4269.10 using pearl millet as substrate

Cogent Food & Agriculture, 2016
α-amylase was produced by Aspergillus terreus NCFT 4269.10 using both liquid static surface (LSSF) and solid-state fermentation using pearl millet residues as substrate. The maximum production of α-amylase was noticed at 30°C incubated for 96h. The crude

α-/β-Glucosidase and α-Amylase Inhibitory Activities of Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) Ethanol Extract

MCBS (Molecular and Cellular Biomedical Sciences), 2017
Background: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease, characterized by hyperglycemia due to disturbance in both insulin secretion and function. One of theurapeutic approaches is to reduce blood glucose levels by inhbiting α-/β-glucosidase and α-amylase ...

Bread Spoilage Fungi as Creators of α Amylase Using Two Types of Wheat Flour

BioResources, 2023
Fungal spoilage of bread can be a great problem; however, it can be explored as a producer of enzymes. The fungi were isolated from breads, and their activity for α-amylase production was planned.
