[Spectrophotometric study on the interaction of protein with acid dye].

Spectrophotometric characters of protein interaction with chromazurol S(CAS), bromocresol green (BCG), bromopyrogallol red (BPR) and methylthymol blue (MTB) have been studied in acid and alkaline medium respectively. Protein can combine the above mentioned dye to reduce absorptivity of dye solution of CAS and BCG at pH 3.8 and pH 4.0, to add absorptivity of dye solution of BPR and MTB at pH 3.8 and pH 10.8 for the bathochromic shift of wave length of maximal absorption of them to add 10 nm and 20 nm respectively. The linear relationship holds between the reduced or added absorptivity of dye and the optimum concentration range of protein. The interaction mechanism of protein and dye has been discussed tentatively.

Toxicological efficacy of some indigenous dill compounds against the flesh fly, Parasarcophaga dux Thomson.

The effect of the LC50 of the three isolated compounds (apiol, myristicin and d-carvone) from dill, Anethum graveolus on growth and reproduction of Parasarcophaga dux showed that three compounds especially apiol caused significant reduction in the percentage of adults emergence and females fecundity. The temperature toxicity relation shape of the three compounds and five insect growth regulations (methoprene, hydroprene, teflubenzuron, chlorfluazuron and Precocene I) alone or in combination against P. dux was studied and discussed.

Enzyme activity in the flesh fly Parasarcophaga dux Thomson influenced by dill compounds, myristicin and apiol.

The newly emerged adults of Parasarcophaga dux were treated topically with various doses of myristicin and apiol isolated from roots of dill plant, Anethum graveolus. The compounds toxicity and the dehydrogenase activities of the treated stage and its subsequent developmental stages were studied. The results indicated that apiol more toxic than myristicin. The spectrophotometric evaluation exhibited changes in dehydrogenase activities after treatments. Compounds increased the activities of both alpha-GPDH and MDH in first half of metamorphosis (immature stages). But, the level of ME activities of the various stages was obviously decreased.

[GC-MS analysis of essential oils from seeds of Myristica fragrans in Chinese market].

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the constituents of the essential oils extracted from nine samples of commercial seeds of Myristica fragrans Houtt respectively and to provide qualities control foundations. METHOD: Water steam distillation and GC-MS were used. RESULT: 95-118 compounds were separated respectively. 79 Compounds being identified which were 95.18%-98.70% of the total essential oil. CONCLUSION: Myristicin (39.63%) and terpene series were the main compounds.

[Study on chemical constituents of the essential oil from Myristica fragrans Houtt. by supercritical fluid extraction and steam distillation].

Essential oils were extracted from Myristica fragrans Houtt. by supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and steam distillation (SD). Their components were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and compared. 48 compounds were identified for the essential oil extracted by supercritical carbon dioxide, and its main components have been found to be myristic acid, myristicin, terpinen-4-ol, alpha-pinene and safrole. 38 compounds were identified for the essential oil obtained by SD, and its main components have been found to be beta-pinene, terpinen-4-ol, alpha-pinene, gamma-terpinene and beta-phellandrene.

[Henry's law constant measurement for hydrogen peroxide using oxidative decoloration of BPR].

The temperature-dependent Henry's Law Constant for hydrogen peroxide was measured. The gas phase of hydrogen peroxide from the vapor saturator collected in a cryogenic trap was analyzed by a spectrophotometric determination, based on the oxidative decoloration of BPR (bromopryogallol red) reaction with hydrogen peroxide under the catalysis of hemin. At 10 degrees C - 35 degrees C, the relationship between Henry's Law constant K(H) (mol x L(-1) x atm(-1)) of hydrogen peroxide and temperature T (K) can be expressed as ln K(H) = a/T - b, where a = 7 269+/-22, and b = 13.26+/-0.08. The standard heat of hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution is 60.43+/-0.18 kJ x K(-1) x mol(-1).

[Yellow laccase from the fungus Pleurotus ostreatus D1: purification and characterization].

Yellow laccase was isolated from a solid-phase culture of the fungus Pleurotus ostreatus D1 and characterized. It is a copper-containing enzyme with molecular weight 64 kDa. Its absorption spectrum lacks the maximum at 610 nm, characteristic of fungal laccases and corresponding to type I copper atom. The optimum pH values for the enzyme were determined. They proved to be: 7.0 for syringaldazine, 8.0 for pyrocatechol, and 4.0 for 2,2'-azine-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate and 2,6-dimethoxyphenol. Kinetic parameters (Km and Vmax) for oxidation of these substrates were determined. The effect of inhibitors (SDS, 2-mercaptoethanol, and EDTA) on the activity of the enzyme was studied. It was shown that yellow laccase from Pleurotus ostreatus D1 oxidized anthracene to anthraquinone by 95% without any mediator.

Determination of magnesium in foods by single-sweep polarography.

In KOH, the Mg(II)-bromopyrogallol red (BPR) complex produced a very sensitive polarographic wave at -1.30 V. The wave height was linear with the concentration of Mg(II) in the range of 0.05 to 2 microg/mL. The detection limit was 0.01 microg/mL. The electrochemical behavior of Mg(II)-BPR was studied by electrochemical and spectrophotometric methods. Experiments proved that the polarographic wave of Mg(II)-BPR was due to the reduction of BPR in the Mg(II)-BPR complex. The method, which was sensitive, selective, and simple to perform, was used to determine magnesium in foods, and the results were consistent with those obtained by atomic absorption spectroscopy.

[Comparing analysis of components in volatile oils of nutmeg and prepared nutmeg by GC-MS].

OBJECTIVE: To compare components in volatile oils of nutmeg and prepared nutmeg. METHOD: Volatile oil from nutmeg and prepared nutmeg were extracted by vapor distillation. The chemical components in two kinds of volatile oils were determined and indentified by GC-MS. RESULT: The change in quantity and quality of components in volatile oils were observed after processing. 13 new components occurred and 4 components disappeared in volatile oils after processing. The contents of methyleugenol and methylisoeugenol that are active ingredients were increased. The contents of myristicin and safrol that are toxic ingredients in volatile oils were decreased. CONCLUSION: The processing method of nutmeg by soaking with water and roasting with bran is scientific.
