キウイフルーツのやわらかさと糖度の関係
The relationship between the softness and sugar content of kiwifruit was investigated using a
penetrometer with a conical needle and a saccharinity meter at a temperature of 27℃ . A linear
relationship was found between softness and sugar content in the sugar content range of 10.2–16.5. Sugar
content increased by a value of approximately 0.9 as the conical needle was inserted 1 mm into the

光アフィニテーラベル法による分子ツールの創製~抗インフルエンザ活性を持つ天然由来糖鎖をリガンドとする
Carbohydrates and proteins bind with low affinity: their interactions are poorly understood. Photoaffinity
labeling technology is the most efficient method used for elucidating carbohydrate–lectin interactions.
Emmyguyacins B, which shows anti-influenza potential, was obtained from sterile fungus species in this
study. However, as the relationship between hemagglutinin and Emmyguyacins B was unknown, we
attempted to synthesize new molecular tools containing emmyguyacins B to elucidate their interactions.
This article describes the construction of the main interaction that we identified: trehalose-type
glycosylation.departmental bulletin pape
Immunological effects of soy pulp (okara) extract containing ß-glucan
In this study, we established an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to measure ß-glucan in
soy pulp (okara) extracts using a ß-glucan-specific antibody developed in our laboratory. Using this
ELISA, we first demonstrated that raw and powdered okara extracts contained ß-glucan. Raw okara
extracts contained especially large amounts of ß-glucan. Interestingly, culturing human umbilical vein
endothelial cells (HUVECs) with raw okara extract significantly enhanced secretion of soluble-form CD44
(sCD44) into the culture supernatants, and addition of a ß-glucan-specific antibody significantly
suppressed the enhanced secretion of sCD44 from HUVECs cultured with raw okara extract. These
findings strongly indicate that raw okara extract exerts specific immunostimulatory actions on HUVECs
via modulation of ß-glucan. These findings also suggest that human consumption of okara may impart
important physiological and immunological health maintenance benefits.自家製の酵素免疫アッセイ法(ELISA)を用いて、生おからと粉末おから抽出液のß-グルカンを測定した
