Maltooligosaccharides: Properties, Production and Applications
Maltooligosaccharides (MOS) are homooligosaccharides that consist of 3–10 glucose molecules linked by α-1,4 glycosidic bonds. As they have physiological functions, they are commonly used as ingredients in nutritional products and functional foods.

Bottom-Up Approach to Explore Alpha-Amylase Assisted Membrane Remodelling [PDF]
Soluble alpha-amylases play an important role in the catabolism of polysaccharides. In this work, we show that the enzyme can interact with the lipid membrane and further alter its mechanical properties. Vesicle fluctuation spectroscopy is used for quantitative measurement of the membrane bending rigidity of phosphatidylcholines lipid vesicles from the

Network Analysis of Biochemical Logic for Noise Reduction and Stability: A System of Three Coupled Enzymatic AND Gates [PDF]
We develop an approach aimed at optimizing the parameters of a network of biochemical logic gates for reduction of the "analog" noise buildup. Experiments for three coupled enzymatic AND gates are reported, illustrating our procedure. Specifically, starch - one of the controlled network inputs - is converted to maltose by beta-amylase.

Towards the Assessment of Stress and Emotional Responses of a Salutogenesis-Enhanced Software Tool Using Psychophysiological Measurements [PDF]
Software development is intellectual, based on collaboration, and performed in a highly demanding economic market. As such, it is dominated by time pressure, stress, and emotional trauma. While studies of affect are emerging and rising in software engineering research, stress has yet to find its place in the literature despite that it is highly related

Biochemical characterization of α-amylases from gut and hemolymph of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus Olivieri (Col.: Curculionidae) and their inhibition by extracts from the legumes Vigna radiata L. and Phaseolus vulgaris L. [PDF]
α-amylase inhibitors represent an important tool in engineering crop plants against insect pests. For achieving this goal, it is necessary to find the nature of α-amylases and their properties for possible use in a pest management procedure.
