The focus of discussion in Working Group 3 was on the Thermodynamic Properties as determined spectroscopically, including the observational techniques and the theoretical modeling of physical processes responsible for the emission spectrum. Recent advances in observational techniques and theoretical concepts make this discussion particularly timely. It is wise to remember that the determination of thermodynamic parameters is not an end in itself and that these are interesting chiefly for what they can tell us about the energetics and mass transport in prominences.

In order to determine total biogenic amines in fermented foods, the combined cross-linked enzyme aggregates of a monoamine oxidase and a putrescine oxidase (combi-CLEAs) and the cross-linked enzyme aggregates (CLEAs) of the fused enzyme of two amine oxidases (MonoAmine Putrescien Oxidase, MAPO) were prepared. The effects of various parameters were examined to optimize the CLEAs formation. Biochemical characterization and stability of free and the CLEAs enzymes were performed. Through optimization of the CLEAs formation condition, the combi-CLEAs and the CLEAs-MAPO were prepared with 82% and 78% of residual activities relative to the activities of the subjected enzymes were in a preparative scale. The optimal pH for tyramine-activities of the CLEAs enzymes were shifted to relatively basic pH, leading to synchronization of the optimal performances of combi-CLEAs over pH for tyramine and putrescine. In addition, thermostability of the CLEAs enzymes were improved with almost double half-lives at 65 °C in comparison to the free enzymes. The catalytic efficiencies of combi-CLEAs for tyramine, histamine and putrescine were reduced by 41%, 56%, and 31%, respectively, and the inhibition potency by the substrate was reduced by two-fold in comparison of the mixed free enzymes. In conclusion, combi-CLEAs are a promising catalyst with the improved stability and the same optimum pH for dual activities in enzymatic determination of biogenic amines in foods.

ABSTRACT The distribution of microorganisms in pozol balls, a fermented maize dough, was investigated by a polyphasic approach in which we used both culture-dependent and culture-independent methods, including microbial enumeration, fermentation product analysis, quantification of microbial taxa with 16S rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes, determination of microbial fingerprints by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), and 16S ribosomal DNA gene sequencing. Our results demonstrate that DGGE fingerprinting and rRNA quantification should allow workers to precisely and rapidly characterize the microbial assemblage in a spontaneous lactic acid fermented food. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) accounted for 90 to 97% of the total active microflora; no streptococci were isolated, although members of the genus Streptococcus accounted for 25 to 50% of the microflora. Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus fermentum, together with members of the generaLeuconostoc and Weissella, were the other dominant organisms. The overall activity was more important at the periphery of a ball, where eucaryotes, enterobacteria, and bacterial exopolysacharide producers developed. Our results also showed that the metabolism of heterofermentative LAB was influenced in situ by the distribution of the LAB in the pozol ball, whereas homolactic fermentation was controlled primarily by sugar limitation. We propose that starch is first degraded by amylases from LAB and that the resulting sugars, together with the lactate produced, allow a secondary flora to develop in the presence of oxygen. Our results strongly suggest that cultivation-independent methods should be used to study traditional fermented foods.

AbstractThis article concerns the legal regulation of medical research on children in Finland. The topic is covered by the Medical Research Act of 1999 and by the Recommendations issued by the Working group on medical research on children in 2003. The Decisions of the Parliamentary Ombudsman also play an important role in this area in Finland. The article focuses on two specific issues: involvement of guardians in decision-making for the child, and the expansion of the right to self-determination of minors. Two case examples on these topics are also discussed. Overall, the author comes to the conclusion that the Finnish legislation, policy-makers, investigators and the industry have succeeded well in taking into account international legislation in this area, although there is also room for improvement.

This article explains in detail the rules on the obligations of the judge, the parties and their lawyers in civil litigation, prepared by a working group that was established within the context of a project on European Rules of Civil Procedure of the European Law Institute and UNIDROIT. These rules are grouped into several parts devoted to the overriding objective of the proposed rules, management and planning of the proceedings, the determination of facts, findings of law, and consensual dispute resolution. The suggested rules reflect best practices in European civil procedure.
