Flavor improvement method for yeast cells and food quality improving agent
The present invention provides a method of improving the taste of yeast cells including a step of reacting the yeast cells with protease or cellulase, and a quality improving material for food containing yeast cells as an active ingredient in which the taste is improved by the method of improving the taste.
TREATMENT OF CANCER BY GUANIDINIUM DERIVATIVES
The present invention relates to a combination therapy for the treatment of cancer, particularly to combinations of oligo(2-(2-ethoxy)ethoxy ethyl guanidinium chloride), poly(hexamethylendiamine guanidiniumchloride), polyetheramines, triethyleneglycol diamine, enzymes, PGPR, amino acids, antioxidants like humic acids and some natural products like phytotherapeutic plant extracts. The combination therapy of the present invention shows enhanced anti-cancerous therapeutic effects compared to the effect of each of the components administered alone. In some embodiments, the combination therapy provide for a synergistic anti-cancer effect. A liposomal drug composition comprising; A dimeric or polymeric guanidine derivative or polyetheramines, triethyleneglycol diamine, enzymes, PGPR, amino acids, antioxidants like humic acids and some natural products like phytotherapeutic plant extracts a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as drug substance, and a lipid modified by polyethylene glycole (PEG).
Method of diagnosing preeclampsia or pregnancy-induced hypertension
A therapeutic agent for the treatment of toxemia, preeclampsia and eclampsia and a method for preparing the therapeutic agent are disclosed. The therapeutic agent is a stable pharmaceutical preparation containing, but not limited to, digestive/pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic agent may be manufactured by a variety of encapsulation technologies. Delivery of the therapeutic agent may be made orally, through injection, by adherence of a medicated patch or by other methods. Further, a method of using the presence of chymotrypsin in the maternal GI tract as a biomarker, to determine the likelihood of developing preeclampsia, a pregnancy induced hypertension, and eclampsia/toxemia is disclosed.
Milk product and preparation method
The invention relates to a low lactose milk product where the milk protein is hydrolyzed by a protease without negatively affecting the organoleptic properties and appearance of the milk product. The invention also relates to a process for preparing a protein hydrolyzed milk product with a low lactose content.
METHOD OF TREATING SCHIZOPHRENIA OR SCHIZOPHRENIFORM DISORDER
Described herein are compositions which include digestive enzymes which are formulated to reduce one or more symptoms of a neuropsychiatric disorder. Also described herein is a method for treating an individual with a neuropsychiatric disorder using digestive enzymes and their derivatives to alleviate the symptoms of neuropsychiatric disorders. The method comprises administering to the individual an effective amount of digestive enzymes that are either naturally- or recombinantly-derived, or their derivatives, in an amount effective to reduce one or more symptoms of the neuropsychiatric disorder.
Multiple proteases deficient filamentous fungal cells and methods of use thereof
The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods useful for the production of heterologous proteins in filamentous fungal cells.
FUSION PROTEINS AND METHODS FOR STIMULATING PLANT GROWTH, PROTECTING PLANTS, AND IMMOBILIZING BACILLUS SPORES ON PLANTS
The present invention is generally directed to fusion proteins containing a targeting sequence that targets the fusion protein to the exosporium of a Bacillus cereus family member. The invention also relates to recombinant Bacillus cereus family members expressing such fusion proteins and formulations containing the recombinant Bacillus cereus family members expressing the fusion proteins. Methods for stimulating plant growth, for protecting plants from pathogens, and for enhancing stress resistance in a plant by applying the recombinant Bacillus cereus family members or the formulations to plants or a plant growth medium are also described. The invention also relates to methods for immobilizing spores of a recombinant Bacillus cereus family member expressing a fusion protein on plants.
PROCESS OF EXTRACTING OIL FROM THIN STILLAGE
The present invention relates to processes of recovering oil after liquefaction and/or from thin stillage and/or syrup/evaporated centrate from a fermentation product production process by adding a thermostable protease to the whole stillage, thin stillage and/or syrup.
Method for improving the nutritional value of animal feed
The invention relates to the use of at least one bacterial phytase in combination with one or more protease(s) in animal feed for improving weight gain and/or Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), wherein the phytase is administered in one or more of the following amounts (dosage ranges): 1,000 FYT/kg feed, 2,000 FYT/kg feed 3,000 FYT/kg feed and wherein the protease is administered in one of the following amounts (dosage ranges): 10,000 units/kg feed, 11,000, 12,000, 13,000, 14,000, 15,000, 16,000, 17,000, 18,000, 19,000, 20,000 units/kg feed.
