<p>The cassava spirit, known as <em>tiquira</em>, is produced mainly in the north region of Brazil and it is regulated by Brazilian legislation. This study aimed to evaluate the traditional method of<em> </em>cassava spirit production, using a controlled process with application of fermentation technology in a laboratory scale production. <em>Aspergillus oryzae</em> was used for liquefaction and saccharification of cassava starch. It was obtained wort with 13.03 °Brix and 6.80% of reducing sugars. Commercial<em> Saccharomyces cerevisiae</em> yeast was used for alcoholic fermentation. After alcoholic fermentation, it was obtained fermented wort with very low volatile acidity. The cassava spirit was obtained by a double distillation process, with separation of the fractions head, heart and tail. The heart fraction of the distillate showed alcohol content of 51.56<sup>o</sup>GL. The contents of aldehydes, esters, methanol and higher alcohols (n-propyl, isobutyl and isoamyl) were determined in cassava spirit using gas chromatography. According to the results, the cassava spirit showed methanol and higher alcohols contents above the limits imposed by Brazilian legislation.</p>

Blood Platelet Aggregation

SummaryInhibition of blood platelet aggregation by brinolase (fibrinolytic enzyme from Aspergillus oryzae) has been demonstrated with human platelets in vitro and with dog platelets in vivo and in vitro, using both ADP and collagen as aggregating stimuli. It is suggested that the optimal inhibitory effects of brinolase occur indirectly through the generation of plasma fibrinogen degradation products, without compromising platelet viability, rather than by direct proteolysis of platelet structures.

Enzyme Preparations

In the production of alcohol in the preparation of grain raw materials for fermentation, the main role is given to enzyme preparations of amylolytic action, which are key enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of starch. Amylolytic enzyme preparations with a different composition of enzymes and their level of activity, a mechanism of biocatalytic effect on starch, and a range of thermal and pH optimum are widely represented on the Russian market. The development of optimal conditions for the preparation of grain wort, the rational selection and dosage of concentrated enzyme preparations, the properties of which correspond to the parameters of the technological process, will ensure the effective preparation of starch for fermentation, and increase the profitability of alcohol production. The aim of this work was to study the influence of enzyme preparations of amylolytic action and the conditions of their use on the efficiency of the process of alcoholic fermentation and the yield of the final product, ethanol. The effect of various dosages of enzyme preparations of glucoamylase action, with a different ratio of the main enzyme glucoamylase and minor enzyme α-amylase, as well as methods for preparing wheat wort on the process of alcoholic fermentation, was studied. It was found that the enzyme preparation, the source of glucoamylase, in which α-amylase was present in a ratio of 15: 1 (in terms of activity level), turned out to be more effective in fermenting prepared wheat wort: its optimal dosage was 8 units. GLS / g starch. The presence of a sufficient amount of α-amylase in this preparation compensated for the dosage of thermostable α-amylase. The alcohol concentration in the mash was 10.2% vol., The alcohol yield was 67.9 cm3 / 100 g of starch. When glucoamylase with a lower ratio of the main and minor enzyme (75: 1) was used at the saccharification stage, an increase in the wort fermentation depth was observed with an increase in the concentration of glucoamylase to 9-10 units of GLS / g and α-amylase to 0.5 units. AC / g. It was also found that an increase in the duration of enzymatic-hydrolytic preparation of the wort had a positive effect on the fermentation process, the alcohol concentration in the mash increased to 10.2 vol.%. It was shown that the introduction of proteases into the wort helps to reduce the viscosity of grain wort, enriching it with assimilable yeast amino acids, which leads to an increase in the yield of alcohol. It has been confirmed that the synergy of the action of enzymes of amylolytic and proteolytic effects on polymers of grain raw materials allows to increase the efficiency of their conversion to ethanol. The conditions of enzymatic-hydrolytic processing of grain raw materials for fermentation are developed. The use of the digestion stage did not significantly affect the fermentation results of wheat wort.

The aim of the present work is to offer a practical methodology to realise an Arrhenius type kinetic model for a biotechnological process of alcoholic fermentation based on the Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast. Using the experimental data we can correlate the medium temperature of fermentation with the time needed for a fermentation process under imposed conditions of economic efficiency.
