    Abstract Newly isolated Bacillus cereus strain NK91 was characterized for extracellular chitinase production. Partially purified chitinase showed a molecular weight of 43.7 kDa in SDS-PAGE analysis. The optimum pH and temperature for the partially purified enzyme were 7.0 and 40°C, respectively.

    Abstract Addition of low-methoxyl pectin (LMP) was observed to reduce whey loss, improve firmness, rheology, quality and overall liking of low-fat set-yoghurt. LMP addition increased soluble solids content and resulted in higher bacterial counts (≥10 log CFU/g), acidity, bioactivity (DPPH• & ABTS⁺ μM Trolox/g), and lower pH of set yoghurts. A significant (p < 0.05) improvement in firmness and 16% reduction in whey loss was also observed. As per rheology studies, LMP added set yoghurts possessed higher modulus (G′, G″, G*) and complex viscosity. Power law model parameters (A & z) for G* also related to the enhanced strength of yoghurt matrix on addition of LMP. The dense packing of protein gel structure along with filling action of hydrated hydrocolloid might led to moduli changes in yoghurts. Increasing slope of |G*| and dtan δ values close to zero confirmed higher gel strength of yoghurt added with higher concentrations of LMP. Microstructure revealed open porous network of casein in control, while increased cross-linking with casein or filling of cavities was observed upon addition of LMP in yoghurts. Sensory liking scores showed strong correlation with rheological parameters, while PCA confirmed the effect of LMP concentration on major quality attributes.

    Abstract Random amplified polymorphic markers were used to evaluate genetic variations among nine bean cultivars (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) of Kinnaur district, Himachal Pradesh. Thirty five polymorphic RAPD markers generated 230 bands. Among these, 209 bands were polymorphic (90.86%) and 45 were unique. The primer OPA09 gave highest polymorphic information content (PIC) value of 0.90 while primer OPA 16 had lowest PIC value (0.58). Resolving power was 20 for OPA-11 and 106 for OPP-16. Jaccard's coefficients based genetic similarity varied from 0.32–0.65. UPGMA based clustering patterns divided cultivars into two main groups and subgroups.

    Abstract In the present study, nine Phaseolus vulgaris L. cultivars of Himalayan region were analyzed for trypsin and-amylase inhibitor activity. Trypsin inhibitor activity (TUI) per gram seed flour wasmaximumin Baspa cultivar (3100.833±2.674) and minimum in Luxmi cultivar (1026.250±4.070), while the total soluble protein(mg per gram seedflour) was maximum in Capsule cultivar (154.984±0.384) and minimum in Contender cultivar (105.034±0.408). α-Amylase instead activity (AIA) per gram seed flour was found maximum in Triloki cultivar and it was found to be 4.974±0.006, 10.257±0.016 and 8.170±0.014 respectively. The minimum α-amylase inhibitor activity per gram seed flour (2.211±0.015) was foundin Baspa cultivar.
