The protein content of the crude extract was determined using the Lowry assay and was found to be 4.28 mg/mL.  The major band which corresponds to the major protein has an approximate molecular weight of 20 KDa. The isolated crude proteins were subjected to enzymatic digestion using pepsin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, and thermolysin for 3, 4, 12, and 24 hours. The 24-hour digest was found to have the highest percent anti-Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) activity (36.02%) while the 12-hour digest was found to have the highest anti-oxidative activity (33.14%) using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The 24-hour digest was subjected to Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) to determine the peptide fraction responsible for the ACE inhibitory activity. Three peptide fractions (PF1, PF2 and PF3) were chosen and PF2 exhibited the highest percent inhibitory activity (32.21) against ACE. PF2 was subjected to thin layer chromatography (TLC) and the possible identity is EK based on the Rf value traveled by glutamic acid (E) (0.43) and Lysine (K) (0.13). In silico analysis was done to correlate the results with the presence of putative peptides with antioxidative and antihypertensive activities. Results showed that antihypertensive peptides EK, GS, TY, FNE, FP, LKA, PT, PP, FAL and antioxidative peptides IR and VPW were found based on the sequence of the protein in “Saba” banana. The presence of the antihypertensive peptide EK was verified using thin layer chromatography (TLC).","PeriodicalId":17914,"journal":{"name":"KIMIKA","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79264838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lignocellulosic biomass turned out to be a promising and renewable feedstock for these applications. 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is one of the most promising building blocks for bio-based chemicals that can be derived from lignocellulosic biomass which can be potentially applied for large scale production. However, one of the main factors holding its transition is the need for sustainable, green and financially feasible processes. This review provides the studies made towards catalytic systems used for HMF production, as well as the various solvents and heating system applied. Research efforts to unravel the interactions among catalysts, solvents, and heating systems are encouraged, thereby engineering a synergistic conversion system for biomass valorization.","PeriodicalId":17914,"journal":{"name":"KIMIKA","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74708730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Particle size distribution (PSD) is a plot that displays the average diameter versus percentage volume of the particles present in a sample. With increased awareness amongst coffee drinkers, a study aiming to report the effects of different pressure on particle size distribution of espresso from four different coffee blends was conducted. The method involved pulling of espresso shots at 7, 9, and 11 bar (or atm) from different coffee blends labeled as MA, CO, AL, and MO. Laser diffraction analysis showed different particle size groupings for each set of extraction pressure. Fine particles are within 1.20 to 28.70 µm. The most abundant particle size is centered at 185.4 µm. The particle size distribution of coffee blends composed of 100% Arabica coffee (AL and MO) but sourced from different locations, showed four similar modes or size ranges centered at 3.523, 13.005, 28.70, and 185.4 µm regardless of the extraction pressure or the coffee source. On the other hand, the coffee blends composed of different ratios of Arabica and Robusta (MA and CO) showed different modes depending on the pressure. This indicates the potential of PSD for characterizing the purity of a coffee blend. The particle size distribution can also give insights as to the sensory attributes of the espresso coffee.","PeriodicalId":17914,"journal":{"name":"KIMIKA","volume":"40 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85843878","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, Cremophor EL is associated with adverse reactions following chemotherapy. This work reports the synthesis of an alternative solubilizing agent for paclitaxel. Two generations of dendritic lysine were coupled onto both ends of PEG-4000 via reaction of fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (FMOC)-lysine-FMOC-OH with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC)-mediated condensation, and deprotection with 30% piperidine. Cholic acid was attached to the terminal amino groups through the use of DCC/n-hydroxysuccinimide. Synthesis steps were monitored and confirmed by electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy. The results suggest that the synthesized polymer is a viable solubilizing agent for delivery of paclitaxel. Additional studies are required to assess its safety and stability.","PeriodicalId":17914,"journal":{"name":"KIMIKA","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78364574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The binary mixture of urea and potassium sodium tartrate is explored in this study. A eutectic system is determined at composition made up of 33% potassium sodium tartrate and 67% urea (1:2 molar ratio). This eutectic system has a freezing point of 19.83 ± 0.76 °C, density of 1.1971 ± 0.0003 g mL-1, and viscosity of 34.4226 ± 0.0665 cP. The most stable conformation for the adduct of urea and potassium sodium tartrate with water molecules was determined through density functional calculations. The gas phase total energy for the adduct was determined as -5576863 kJ mol-1. Electrostatic interactions between the cations and the carboxylate sites are present, H-bonding between protons of urea and the hydroxyl oxygen of the tartrate, and intramolecular H-bonding between the hydroxyl and carboxylate sites of tartrate are accounted in the structure. The total energy associated with nonbonding interactions is computed as -826 kJ mol-1, which suggests that these interactions stabilize the formation of the DES system of potassium sodium tartrate and urea.","PeriodicalId":17914,"journal":{"name":"KIMIKA","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79689559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For an important material to exhibit its optoelectronic properties intrinsic uniformity in the molecular level is required. Thus, a monomer of ethyl methacrylate with pendant carbazole group was synthesized and polymerized via Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer (RAFT) to produce polymers with controlled molecular weight distribution and narrow polydispersity index (PDI). This method of polymerization was compared with that of free radical polymerization by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The RAFT’s polymerization kinetics was observed to follow a plot of number average molecular weight (Mn) versus % conversion, characteristic of living polymerization. It was also shown to possess polymer chain extension capability. The structure of the monomer and the polymers were characterized by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR).","PeriodicalId":17914,"journal":{"name":"KIMIKA","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85141255","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
