Effect of Types of coagulant on the Nutritive value and In vitro multienzyme Protein Digestibility of Tofu.

Omotosho, Omolola E. and Oboh, Ganiyu
Tofu is popularly consumed in Nigeria because of the various nutritional and medicinal attribute associated with soybean products. In Nigeria Tofu a coagulated product of soymilk is usually produced at household level using various types of coagulants such as Calcium chloride, Alum and steep water (effluent from pap produced from maize). This study therefore sought to assess the effect of the v...

Comparative effects of local Coagulants on the Nutritive Value, In vitro Multienzyme Protein Digestibility and sensory properties of Wara

O.E. Omotosho, G. Oboh and E.E.J. Iweala
Wara, a Nigerian soft cheese, was produced from cow milk using different crude coagulants obtained from (1) the juice of Calotropis procera, (2) an aqueous solution of calcium chloride, (3) an aqueous solution of alum and (4) steep waste water from pap production. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of these coagulants on the yield, proximate analysis, mineral composition, en...

Tertiary conformational transition in horse hemoglobin induced by inositol hexakisphosphate

Omolola E. Omotosho and Kehinde O. Okonjo
The red blood cell of the domestic horse contains two hemoglobin types. The two hemoglobins were separated on a column of carboxymethylcellulose. The equilibrium constant, Kequ, for the reaction of 5,5′-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) — DTNB — with the CysF9[93]β sulfhydryl group of each hemoglobin was determined at 25°C as a function of pH. The reactivity of CysF9[93]β is affected by allosteric...
