Abstract

All vaccines have--besides their specific effect on the immune response--more or less pronounced side effects on the organism and particularly on the immune system. The latter effects deserve special interest, whenever they increase the host defence against infectious diseases. Desirable paraspecific effects of vaccines are the induction of interferon, the enhancement of phagocytic function and the activation of lysosomal enzymes. Some vaccines exert different effects: attenuated live measles vaccine induces interferon, pertussis vaccine activates lysosomal enzymes of macrophages. Some clinical observations illustrate how paraspecific effects of vaccines can be utilized for therapeutic purposes.

Kinetics of the surface hydrolysis of raw starch by glucoamylase.

The hydrolysis of raw starch catalyzed by glucoamylase has been studied with starch granules of different sizes by use of an amperometric glucose sensor by which the direct and continuous observation of the concentration of glucose can be achieved even in a thick raw starch suspension. The initial rate of the enzymatic hydrolysis in the raw starch suspension increased with increasing concentration of the enzyme to approach a saturation value and was proportional to the amount of substrate. Also, the rate was proportional to the specific surface area of the substrate. The experimental results can be explained well by the rate equations derived from a three-step mechanism, which consists of adsorption of the free enzyme onto the surface of the substrate, reaction of the adsorbed enzyme with the substrate, and liberation of the product.

Fermentative production of DL-lactic acid from amylase-treated rice and wheat brans hydrolyzate by a novel lactic acid bacterium, Lactobacillus sp.

Rice and wheat brans, without additional nutrients and hydrolyzed by alpha-amylase and amyloglucosidase, were fermented to DL-lactic acid using a newly isolated strain of Lactobacillus sp. RKY2. In batch fermentations at 36 degrees C and pH 6, the amount of lactic acid in fermentation broth reached 129 g l(-1) by supplementation of rice bran with whole rice flour. The maximum productivity was 3.1 g lactic acid l(-1) h(-1) in rice bran medium supplemented with whole rice flour or whole wheat flour.
