A note on the effects of a combination of an enzyme complex and probiotic in the diet on performance of broiler chickens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
peer-reviewedThe object of this experiment was to investigate the effect of an enzyme complex and a probiotic mixture, offered either singly or in combination, in the diet of broiler chickens (from 1 to 47 days of age) on growth and digestive tract ...

Persistence of Digestive Enzyme Activities of Sea Cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus): Evidence From Diet Switch After Evisceration

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
A two-stage diet-switch experiment was conducted to examine the hypothesis that the changes in digestive enzyme activities of sea cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus) induced by historic diets might persist in the regenerated intestines.

Guidelines for the digestive enzymes inhibition assay

open access: yeseFood, 2022
As digestive enzymes play a key role in the digestion and absorption of nutrients, more and more studies have focused on the inhibitory effect of various biochemicals on digestive enzymes, such as amylase, glucosidases, lipases, and proteases, etc ...

Modulation of digestive physiology and biochemistry in Mytilus californianus in response to feeding level acclimation and microhabitat

open access: yesBiology Open, 2016
The intertidal mussel Mytilus californianus is a critical foundation species that is exposed to fluctuations in the environment along tidal- and wave-exposure gradients.

Effects of hemp seed and flaxseed on enzyme activity in the broiler chicken digestive tract

open access: yesAnimal, 2023
The activity of enzymes in the digestive tract is an important parameter for appropriate digestive tract function. Feed mixtures can be adjusted to support enzymatic activity in different parts of the digestive tract.

The response of digestive enzyme activity in the mature Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis (Decapoda: Brachyura), to gradual increase of salinity

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2013
Mature Chinese mitten crabs, Eriocheir sinensis, were exposed to brackish water or seawater as an obligatory part of their reproductive migration. Physiological and biochemical reorganization were needed to adapt them to this migration. To understand the

Search for Nutritional Fitness Traits in a Biological Pest Control Agent Harmonia axyridis Using Comparative Transcriptomics

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Harmonia axyridis is an important natural predator used in the biological control of insect pests. Vitellogenin (Vg) supplementation to artificial diet can improve fecundity of H. axyridis, however, the effects of Vg on physiology of H.

Circadian cycle of digestive enzyme production at fasting and feeding conditions in Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Cichlidae) [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2016
Background. Fish have photoperiod-dependent rhythms (circadian cycle of about 24 h), including the enzymatic secretion cycles, and this information has not been available for Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758).

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
