T1 - ESI(+)-MS and GC-MS study of the hydrolysis of N-azobenzyl derivatives of chitosan JF - Molecules N2 - New N-p-chloro-, N-p-bromo-, and N-p-nitrophenylazobenzylchitosan derivatives, as well as the corresponding azophenyl and azophenyl-p-sulfonic acids, were synthesized by coupling N-benzylvchitosan with aryl diazonium salts. The synthesized molecules were analyzed by UV-Vis, FT-IR, H-1-NMR and N-15-NMR spectroscopy. The capacity of copper chelation by these materials was studied by AAS. Chitosan and the derivatives were subjected to hydrolysis and the products were analyzed by ESI(+)-MS and GC-MS, confirming the formation of N-benzyl chitosan. Furthermore, the MS results indicate that a nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SnAr) reaction occurs under hydrolysis conditions, yielding chloroaniline from N-p-bromo-, and N-p-nitrophenylazo-benzylchitosan as well as bromoaniline from N-p-chloro-, and N-p-nitrophenylazobenzyl-chitosan.

T1 - Growth of phytopathogenic fungi in the presence of partially acetylated chitooligosaccharides N2 - Four phytopathogenic fungi were cultivated up to six days in media contg. chitooligosaccharide mixts. differing in av. DP and F A. The three different mixts. were named Q3 (which contained oligosaccharides of DP2-DP10, with DP2-DP7 as main components), Q2 (which contained oligosaccharides of DP2-DP12, with DP2-DP10 as main components) and Q1 (which derived from Q2 and contained oligomers of DP5-DP8 with hexamer and a heptamer as the main components). The novel aspect of this work is the description of the effect of mixts. of oligosaccharides with different and known compn. on fungal growth rates. The growth rate of Alternaria alternata and Rhizopus stolonifer was initially inhibited by Q3 and Q2 at higher concns. Q1 had a growth stimulating effect on these two fungi. Growth of Botrytis cinerea was inhibited by Q3 and Q2, while Q1 had no effect on the growth of this fungus. Growth of Penicillium expansum was only slightly inhibited by higher concns. of sample Q3, while Q2 and Q1 had no effect. The inhibition of growth rates or their resistance toward chitooligosaccharides correlated with the absence or presence of chitinolytic enzymes in the culture media, resp.

T1 - Preparation of Insect-Cuticle-Like Biomimetic Materials N2 - A model system of tanning of a protein matrix within a fibrous structure, such as most commonly found in insect cuticle, was developed, using the cellulose of paper in place of chitin. The paper was impregnated with a tripeptide, DOPA-Gly-Gly, or a protein (BSA) plus catechol and treated with tyrosinase to oxidize the catechol. The resulting material was waterproof and had very high wet strength. If the material was wetted and dried repeatedly its water retention decreased by a factor of at least two.

T1 - Antibacterial activity of products of depolymerization of chitosans with lysozyme and chitosanase against Campylobacter jejuni JF - Carbohydrate polymers : an international journal devoted to scientific and technological aspects of industrially important polysaccharides N2 - Chitosan has several biological properties useful for the food industry, but the most attractive is its potential use as a food preservative of natural origin due to its antimicrobial activity against a wide range of food-borne microorganisms. Among food-borne pathogens, Campylobacter jejuni and related species are recognised as the most common causes of bacterial food-borne diarrhoeal disease throughout the world. Recently, it has been demonstrated that campylobacters are highly sensitive to chitosan. Even though chitosan is known to have important functional activities, poor solubility makes them difficult to use in food and biomedical applications. Unlike chitosan, the low viscosity and good solubility of chitosan oligosaccharides (COS) make them especially attractive in an important number of useful applications. In the present work, the effect of different COS on C. jejuni was investigated. Variables such as the physicochemical characteristics of chitosan and the enzyme used in COS preparation were studied. The COS had been fractioned using ultrafiltration membranes and each fraction was characterized regarding its FA and molecular weight distribution. It has been demonstrated that the biological properties of COS on Campylobacter depend on the composition of the fraction analysed. COS prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis with chitosanase were more active against Campylobacter that lysozyme-derived COS, and this behaviour seems to be related with the acetylation of the chains. On the other hand. the 10-30 kDa fraction was the most active COS fraction, independently of the enzyme used for the hydrolysis. These results have shown that COS could be useful as antimicrobial in the control of C. jejuni.

T1 - Structural characterization of mesquite (Prosopis velutina) gum and its fractions N2 - Structural and physicochem. characteristics of mesquite gum (from Prosopis velutina) were investigated using FT- IR spectroscopic, mass spectrometric and chromatog. methods. Four fractions (F-I, F-IIa, F-IIb and F-III) were isolated by hydrophobic interaction chromatog. The samples were characterized and analyzed for their monosaccharide and oligomers compn. by high performance anion-exchange chromatog. with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD). L-Arabinose (L-Ara) and D-galactose (D-Gal) were found as the main carbohydrate constituent residues in the polysaccharides from mesquite gum and their ratio (L-Ara/D-Gal) varied within the range 2.54 to 3.06 among the various fractions. Small amts. of D- glucose (D-Glc), D-mannose (D-Man) and D-xylose (D-Xyl) were also detected, particularly in Fractions IIa, IIb and III. IR spectroscopy identified polysaccharides and protein in all the samples. Data from mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was consistent with the idea that the structure corresponding to the periphereal chains of Fraction I is predominantly a chain of pentoses attached to uronic acid.
