A. Hosono et S. Hisamatsu, BINDING OF AMINO-ACID PYROLYSATES AND AFLATOXINS TO AUTOCLAVED CELLS OF ENTEROCOCCUS-FAECALIS FK-23, Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry, 59(5), 1995, pp. 940-942
There was significant binding in autoclaved cells of Enterococcus faec
alis FK-23 toward Trp-P1 and Trp-P2. Although the binding ability towa
rds aflatoxins B-1, B-2, G(1), and G(2) was less compared with the sig
nificant binding toward Trp-P1 and Trp-P2, higher percentage binding t
oward these aflatoxins was observed when the amount of the cell prepar
ation was increased.
