BACKGROUND ART Invention defined in claim 1 10 [0002] Retention of moisture is essential for maintaining healthy skin, and many endermic liniments designed for moisture retention have been developed. As far as the sensation at the time of application of an endermic liniment is concerned, smoothness without a sticky sensation is desired. [0003] Research with regard to humectants is carried out intensively; humectants such as organic salts, polyhydric 15 alcohols, and water-soluble polymers are blended in an endermic liniment today. [0004] However, the blend ratio of these humectants must be increased in order to increase the moisture retaining effect, and as a result there are the following problems to be solved: the system becomes unstable, usability becomes poor, and, when applied to skin, it is repelled by sebum, or fitness for skin becomes poor. [0005] The inventors conducted earnest research in view of the aforementioned problems and discovered that an 20 endermic liniment that is superior in terms of the tactile sensation during use, smoothness in particular, without a sticky sensation, and having a lasting moisture retaining effect, can be obtained when diethoxy ethyl succinate and a humectant are blended in an endermic liniment, thus completing the present invention. [0006] The object of the present invention is to provide an endermic liniment comprising a polyoxyethylene dicarbo- xylate which promotes the effect of the ingredients, and in particular to provide an endermic liniment comprising a 25 humectant in combination with the polyoxyethylene dicarboxylate. DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION Invention defined in claim 1 30 [0007] That is, the present invention provides an endermic liniment as defined in claim 1. [0008] Also, the present invention provides said endermic liniment wherein said endermic liniment is a whitening endermic liniment. 35 BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION [0009] The configuration of the present invention is described in detail below. Invention defined in claims 1-3 40 [0010] Polyoxyethylene dicarboxylates of the chemical formula (1) are known substances. [0011] Chemical formula (1): 45 50 (In this formula, R1 and R2 are hydrogen or alkyl or branched alkyl groups having 1-4 carbon atoms, and m, n, X, and Y are integers 0-5 which are not all zero at the same time. R3 is a branched or linear chain alkylene group having 0-10 carbon atoms.) 55 [0012] In chemical 1 formula (1), R1 and R2 denote alkyl or branched alkyl groups with a carbon number of 1-4; when the carbon number exceeds 5, hydrophilicity is reduced and the stability of the system becomes poor as they are blended in an endermic liniment (lotion in particular), m, n, X, and Y denote an integer of 0-5. Preferably they should be integers 1-2. If the total of m, n, X, and Y is zero, then hydrophilicity is reduced and the stability of the system becomes poor as 3 EP 1 153 602 B1 they are blended in an endermic liniment (lotion in particular). If it is more than 15, then the tactile sensation during use, smoothness in particular, becomes insufficient. R3 denote an alkyl or branched alkyl group with a carbon number of 0-10; when the carbon number exceeds 10, hydrophilicity is reduced and the stability of the system becomes poor as it is blended in an endermic liniment (lotion in particular). 5 [0013] Of polyoxyethylene dicarboxylates (1), diethoxyethyl succinate is used according to the invention due to its tactile sensation during use. An endermic liniment with particularly superior smoothness and without a sticky sensation which has a lasting moisture effect can be obtained. [0014] The blend ratio of the diethoxyethyl succinate is not limited in particular, but preferably 0.001-20.0 wt%, more preferably 0.1-10.0 wt% based upon the total amount of the endermic liniment. If it is less than 0.001 wt%, then the 10 effect of the blending is not manifested. If it is over 20. 0 wt%, then a sti.cky sensation will arise after use. [0015] The humectant used in the present invention is selected from polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerin, 1,3-butylene glycol, xylitol, sorbitol, maltitol, hyaluronic acid, or diglycerin (EO)PO adduct. [0016] The blend ratio of the humectant is not limited in particular; it is preferably 0.001-20.0 wt%, more preferably 0.1-10.0 wt%, based upon the total amount of the endermic liniment. 15 Common description [0017] The endermic liniment of the present invention is prepared by blending the aforementioned essential ingredients in an existing endermic liniment base. In addition to the aforementioned essential ingredients, other ingredients used in 20 endermic liniments such as cosmetics and drugs can be blended as necessary in the endermic liniment of the present invention; examples of such ingredients include powder ingredients, liquid fats and oils, solid fats and oils, waxes, hydrocarbons, higher fatty acids, higher alcohols, esters, silicones, anionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, ampholytic surfactants, nonionic surfactants, humectants, water-soluble polymers, thickeners, coating agents, ultraviolet light ab- sorbents, sequestering agents, lower alcohols, polyhydric alcohols, sugars, amino acids, organic amines, polymer emul- 25 sions, pH adjusting agents, skin nutrients, vitamins, antioxidants, antioxidation assistants, perfumes, and water; and the endermic liniment can be prepared for the target formulation with a conventional method. Specific ingredients which can be blended in are listed below. The endermic liniment of the present invention can be prepared by blending the afore- mentioned essential ingredients and any one, two or more of the following ingredients. [0018] Examples of the powder ingredients include inorganic powders (for example, talc, kaolin, mica, sericite, mus- 30 covite, phlogopite, synthetic mica, lepidolite, biotite, vermiculite, magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, aluminum silicate, barium silicate, calcium silicate, magnesium silicate, strontium silicate, tungstic acid metal salt, magnesium, silica, zeolite, barium sulfate, firing calcium sulfate (calcined gypsum), calcium phosphate, fluorine-apatite, hydroxy apatite, ceramic powder, metallic soaps (for example, myristic acid zinc, calcium palmitate, and

  • 48 3-1-4. Reactions Using Mutant FSA A129S Another Mutant Enzyme
    Results _ 3-1-4. Reactions using mutant FSA A129S Another mutant enzyme, A129S, which has serine at 129th residue instead of alanine (Fig.3-11a), has high potential to catalyze the reactions using DHA as a donor substrate. Virtually, the kcat/Km value for DHA is more than 12 fold of that of WT (Schürmann, 2001). This implies that larger amounts of products can be acquired with A129S than with WT, or unfavorable reactions with WT may be accomplished with the mutant enzyme. Firstly, FSA A129S was produced in DH5α with pUC18 plasmid vector and purified with same method as WT was done (Fig.3-11b, Table 3-8). This mutant enzyme was overexpressed well and a strong band corresponding to FSA was seen on SDS-PAGE gel (as 10~15% of total protein in crude extract). In addition, this mutant enzyme held the stability against high temperature. Thus, a heat treatment step was part of the purification protocol. However, protein solution obtained from hydroxyapatite column of the final purification step showed still a few extra protein bands on SDS-PAGE gel (Fig.3-11b). Although it contained those extra proteins, the purity appeared to be more than 90% on the gel and the specific activity was quite high enough to assay the catalytic ability of the enzyme for several substrates. Indeed, even crude extract showed higher specific activity than purified WT had (Table 3-8). Three reactions (scheme 3-1) were probed to assay catalytic ability of both FSA WT and A129S. Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) or hydroxyacetone (HA) were used as donor substrates, and formaldehyde or glycolaldehyde as acceptor.

Boraston, Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology Supervisor Dr. Martin J. Boulanger, Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology Departmental Member Dr. Fraser Hof, Department of Chemistry O utside Member Agarose and porphyran are related galactans that are only found within red marine algae. As such, marine microorganisms have adapted to using these polysaccharides as carbon sources through the acquisition of unique Carbohydrate Active enZymes (CAZymes). A recent metagenome study of the microbiomes from a Japanese human population identified putative CAZymes in several bacterial species, including Bacteroides plebeius that have significant amino acid sequence similarity with those from marine bacteria. Analysis of one potential CAZyme from B. plebeius (BpGH50) is described here. While displaying up to 30% sequence identity with β-agarases, BpGH50 has no detectable agarase activity. Its crystal structure reveals that the topology of the active site is much different than previously characterized agarases, while containing the same core catalytic machinery.

    CBCS 3rd Semester Core Course VII Paper: Fundamentals of Biochemistry Unit 1: Carbohydrates Structure and Biological importance: Monosaccharides, Disaccharides, Polysaccharides and Glycoconjugates By- Dr. Luna Phukan Definition The carbohydrates are a group of naturally occurring carbonyl compounds (aldehydes or ketones) that also contain several hydroxyl groups. It may also include their derivatives which produce such compounds on hydrolysis. They are the most abundant organic molecules in nature and also referred to as “saccharides”. The carbohydrates which are soluble in water and sweet in taste are called as “sugars”. Structure of Carbohydrates Carbohydrates consist of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The general empirical structure for carbohydrates is (CH2O)n. They are organic compounds organized in the form of aldehydes or ketones with multiple hydroxyl groups coming off the carbon chain. The building blocks of all carbohydrates are simple sugars called monosaccharides. A monosaccharide can be a polyhydroxy aldehyde (aldose) or a polyhydroxy ketone (ketose) The carbohydrates can be structurally represented in any of the three forms: 1. Open chain structure. 2. Hemi-acetal structure. 3. Haworth structure. Open chain structure – It is the long straight-chain form of carbohydrates. Hemi-acetal structure – Here the 1st carbon of the glucose condenses with the -OH group of the 5th carbon to form a ring structure. Haworth structure – It is the presence of the pyranose ring structure Classification of Carbohydrates Monosaccharides The simple carbohydrates include single sugars (monosaccharides) and polymers, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Simplest group of carbohydrates and often called simple sugars since they cannot be further hydrolyzed. Colorless, crystalline solid which are soluble in water and insoluble in a non-polar solvent.

It is widely used as sweetener in calorie-reduced food, candies, or bakery products. In research focusing on sugar alternatives, erythritol is a key issue due to its, compared to other polyols, challenging production. It cannot be chemically synthesized in a commercially worthwhile way resulting in a switch to biotechnological production. In this area, research efforts have been made to improve concentration, productivity, and yield. This mini review will give an overview on the attempts to improve erythritol production as well as their development over time. Keywords Erythritol . Sugar alcohols . Polyols . Sweetener . Sugar .

  • Structures and Characteristics of Carbohydrates in Diets Fed to Pigs: a Review Diego M
    Navarro et al. Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology (2019) 10:39 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40104-019-0345-6 REVIEW Open Access Structures and characteristics of carbohydrates in diets fed to pigs: a review Diego M. D. L. Navarro1, Jerubella J. Abelilla1 and Hans H. Stein1,2* Abstract The current paper reviews the content and variation of fiber fractions in feed ingredients commonly used in swine diets. Carbohydrates serve as the main source of energy in diets fed to pigs. Carbohydrates may be classified according to their degree of polymerization: monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Digestible carbohydrates include sugars, digestible starch, and glycogen that may be digested by enzymes secreted in the gastrointestinal tract of the pig. Non-digestible carbohydrates, also known as fiber, may be fermented by microbial populations along the gastrointestinal tract to synthesize short-chain fatty acids that may be absorbed and metabolized by the pig. These non-digestible carbohydrates include two disaccharides, oligosaccharides, resistant starch, and non-starch polysaccharides. The concentration and structure of non-digestible carbohydrates in diets fed to pigs depend on the type of feed ingredients that are included in the mixed diet. Cellulose, arabinoxylans, and mixed linked β-(1,3) (1,4)-D-glucans are the main cell wall polysaccharides in cereal grains, but vary in proportion and structure depending on the grain and tissue within the grain. Cell walls of oilseeds, oilseed meals, and pulse crops contain cellulose, pectic polysaccharides, lignin, and xyloglucans. Pulse crops and legumes also contain significant quantities of galacto-oligosaccharides including raffinose, stachyose, and verbascose.
