Kiwicha (Amaranthus caudatus) is considered one of the few multipurpose pseudocereals for its potential use not only as a source of nutrients and fiber but also for its bioactive compounds. In recent years, antioxidant peptides are commonly used as functional ingredient of food. Herein, a kiwicha protein isolate (KPI), obtained from kiwicha defatted flour (KDF), was hydrolyzed by Bioprotease LA 660, a food-grade endoprotease, under specific conditions. The resulting kiwicha protein hydrolysates (KPHs) were chemically characterized and their digestibility and antioxidant capacity were evaluated by in vitro cell-free experiments owing to their measure of capacity to sequester DPPH free radical and reducing power. KPHs showed higher digestibility and antioxidant capacity than intact proteins into KPI. Therefore, the results shown in this study indicate that KPHs could serve as an adequate source of antioxidant peptides, representing an effective alternative to the generation of functional food.

Utilization of brown algae especially in Madura, where it’s close to Surabaya, only limited for food. This become a reference for developing and increasing the potential of this algae by extracting one of the ingredients, namely alginate. This paper deals with the characterization of sodium alginate extracted from sargassum sp. using modified-purified calcium routes. The extracted sodium alginate will be further used as composite hydrogel materials and compared with commercial sodium alginate. Hereafter, the synthesized composite is expected to be bio-ink for 3d printer. Chemical composition analysis were analyzed using X-Ray Fluorosense (XRF) followed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis to identify the functional group of composite and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). Furthermore, viscosity bath is performed to compare the viscosity of extracted and commercial one. The result shows that modified-purified calcium routes in the extraction process of sodium alginate is desirable for improving their properties. Interestingly enough, with the goal of using it as bio-ink in 3d printed fabrication, the synthesized composite shows viscosity, 300 cSt, which meets the criteria for bio-ink in 3d printer.

ABSTRACT Serratia marcescens culture filtrates have been reported to be cytotoxic to mammalian cells. Using biochemical and genetic approaches, we have identified a major source of this cytotoxic activity. Both heat and protease treatments abrogated the cytotoxicity of S. marcescens culture filtrates towards HeLa cells, suggesting the involvement of one or more protein factors. A screen for in vitro cytotoxic activity revealed that S. marcescens mutant strains that are deficient in production of a 56-kDa metalloprotease are significantly less cytotoxic to mammalian cells. Cytotoxicity was significantly reduced when culture filtrates prepared from wild-type strains were pretreated with either EDTA or 1,10-phenanthroline, which are potent inhibitors of the 56-kDa metalloprotease. Furthermore, cytotoxic activity was restored when the same culture filtrates were incubated with zinc divalent cations, which are essential for enzymatic activity of the 56-kDa metalloprotease. Finally, recombinant expression of the S. marcescens 56-kDa metalloprotease conferred a cytotoxic phenotype on the culture filtrates of a nonpathogenic Escherichia coli strain. Collectively, these data suggest that the 56-kDa metalloprotease contributes significantly to the in vitro cytotoxic activity commonly observed in S. marcescens culture filtrates.

The research characterization of cytotoxic fraction against P-388 leukemia murine cells from the extract honje (Etlingera elatior) seed have been reported. This research lead to isolated and characterization of cytotoxic compounds against P-388 leukemia murine cells from the extract E. elantior seed. The extract of E. elantior seed was maserated by methanol, n-hexane, and ethyl acetate, respectively and estimated their cytotoxic activity against P-388 leukemia murine cell with 3- (4, 5-dimetiltiazol-2-yl) -2,5-difeniltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay guided toxicity test against of shrimp Artemia salina Leach. Brine shirmp Lethality Test (BSLT) method. The active extracts will be separated by fractionation using column chromatography, radial chromatography, and for analyzing the purity of isolate will estimate by HPLC. The chemical structure of pure isolate will be identified by spectroscopies data UV Vis, FTIR, NMR and MS. The ethyl acetate extract from honje seed have cytotoxic activity by leukemia P-388 cell  with IC50 19.21 µg/mL. The compound toxic as cytotoxicagainst P-388 leukemia murine cells is flavonoid compouds their is resveratrol, lapachol, apigenin, methylated chrysin, 6,2’-dihydroxyflavanone, 3-hydroxy-3,4’-dymethoxyflavone and 4’-hydroxy-5,7-dimethoxyflavanone.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15408/jkv.v0i0.3640
