Halotolerant Ability and α-Amylase Activity of Some Saltwater Fungal Isolates [PDF]
Four halotolerant fungal isolates originating from the saltwater Lake Urmia in Iran were selected during a screening program for salt resistance and α-amylase activity. The isolates were identified based on sequencing the ITS region and a part of the β-

Salmonella Degrades the Host Glycocalyx Leading to Altered Infection and Glycan Remodeling. [PDF]
Complex glycans cover the gut epithelial surface to protect the cell from the environment. Invasive pathogens must breach the glycan layer before initiating infection.

The cutoff value of CRP by sex for poor OS remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the cutoff values of CRP on postoperative day 3 to predict poor OS in men and women with gastric cancer after radical gastrectomy. The high‐CRP group has poorer overall survival than the low‐CRP group for gastric cancer after gastrectomy.

Mesenteric thrombosis: An unusual complication of severe acute pancreatitis—Report of two cases
Abstract The incidence of acute pancreatitis is 34 per 100 000 people in the general population and is on the rise. Approximately 15% to 20% of all patients experience severe pancreatitis, with a mortality rate nearing 20%. This condition is often linked to vascular complications, although mesenteric thrombosis is a rare presentation.

SummaryAmylase levels in the Fallopian tubes of the human, cow, rabbit and sheep are greater than the corresponding serum levels, hence amylase must be produced in the tubes of these animals. Amylase is also found in the Fallopian tubes of the rat, dog, hog, guinea pig, cat and monkey but in lower concentrations than the corresponding sera. High levels

Rational engineering of a cold-adapted α-amylase from the Antarctic ciliate Euplotes focardii for simultaneous improvement of thermostability and catalytic activity [PDF]
The α-amylases are endo-acting enzyme which hydrolyze starch by randomly cleaving the 1,4-α-D-glucosidic linkages between the adjacent glucose units in linear amylose chain.

Molecular cloning and biochemical characterization of an α-amylase family from Aspergillus niger
Background: α-Amylase is widely used in the starch processing, food and paper industries, hydrolyzing starch, glycogen and other polysaccharides into glucose, maltose and oligosaccharides.

Crystallographic study of Bacillus stearothermophilus α-amylase [PDF]
Amylases (EC3.2.1) are enzymes which hydrolyze starch and at present are classified into the three groups based on their action modes and the end product from starch degradation. They are α-amylases (EC3.2.1.1), β-amylases ...Thesis (Ph. D.

Assessment of the hydrolytic performance of locally sourced crude amylases on root (cassava & potato) and cereal (maize) starches for syrup production [PDF]
Starches from cassava, potato and maize were hydrolysed by locally sourced crude amylases to assess and compare the performance of the enzymes in converting root and cereal starches to glucose syrup.
