- Chemistry
- 1 April 1998
Abstract Amino acid residues involved at the active site of Tropaeolum majus invertase (β- d -fructofuranoside fructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) were determined. Photo-oxidation and Woodward's reagent K… Expand
Antioxidant activity of Argentine propolis extracts.

Propolis is used in Argentine folk medicine. We have examined its possible protective action against oxidative modification of lipid in unfractionated serum. The kinetics of copper-induced oxidation… Expand
Purification and characterization of Ricinus communis invertase.
- F. E. Prado, M. Vattuone, O. L. Fleischmacher, A. Sampietro
- Chemistry, Medicine
- The Journal of biological chemistry
- 25 April 1985
An invertase from Ricinus communis leaves was purified 4,400-fold. The preparation was homogeneous by criteria of gel electrophoresis, gel permeation, adsorption, and ionic exchange chromatography.… Expand
Cell wall invertases from sugar cane
- F. Prado, O. L. Fleischmacher, M. A. Vattuone, A. Sampietro
- Biology
- 1981
Abstract Invertases in sugar cane leaf sheaths are firmly bound to the cell wall. They consist of three different enzymes distinguished on the basis of optimum pH, K m and the response to inhibitors.… Expand

- 19 June 1998
Abstract. The soluble acid invertase (β-D-fructofuranoside fructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) from potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Kennebec) tubers was located in the vacuoles. Although the functionality… Expand
A simple and sensitive method for determining reducing sugars in plant tissues. Application to quantify the sugar content in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) seedlings
- F. Prado, J. A. González, C. Boero, A. Sampietro
- Chemistry
- 1 March 1998
A simple and sensitive method for the colorimetric determination of reducing sugars in plant materials is proposed. The procedure is based on reduction under alkaline conditions of potassium… Expand
Localization of invertase activities in ricinus communis leaves
- M. Vattuone, O. L. Fleischmacher, F. Prado, A. L. Viǹals, A. Sampietro
- Chemistry
- 1983
Leaf tissue from Ricinus communis possesses cell wall and soluble invertases. These activities may be distinguished on the basis of their optimum pH and Km and the action of various inhibitors. Ca… Expand
