Lipids are the most important energy-producing macromolecules in foods. The lipid level observed in the flesh of snails is conditioned by the species and their diet. To this end, studies were carried out on the chemical properties and physical characteristics of the fat coming from the flour obtained from the flesh of the Limicolaria flamméa snail. Standard analytical methods were used to assess certain physico-chemical properties (density, density, oleic acidity index......). The analyses revealed that the fat from the flour derived from the flesh of the snail Limicolaria flamméa had an iodin

Abstract:
Background: 3-Mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST) is a multifunctional, mitochondrial and cytoplasmic sulphurtransferase that catalyses the detoxification of cyanide to a less toxic thiocyanate. Limicolaria flammea feeds majorly on green leaves, plants and other cyanide containing foods. Methods: 3-MST from the hemolymph of Limicolaria flammae was purified by 70 % ammonium sulphate precipitation and ion exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme was characterized at different levels such as optimal activity, inhibitors, substrate preference, thermal stability and analysis of ki-netic

Abstract:
Polygalacturonases are extensively used in food industries for pectic substances degradation. In this paper, we investigate on thermal stability parameters of two Polygalacturonases previously isolated from digestive juice of the snail Limicolaria flammea for several industrial applications such as fruit juice clarification. Thermal inactivation was carried out in the temperature range of 55°C to 80°C from 15 to 120 min. All results were statistically analysed. The results shown that thermal inactivation of studied acid phosphatases follows first order kinetics. At their optimum temperatures,

Abstract:
The garden snail, Limicolaria flammea is a seasonal pest of several horticultural crops in most of the agroecological areas in Nigeria. The level of damage to crops is especially enormous in the South because of its ability to feed on different crops and the timing of abundance, the early rain season, which usually coincide with onset of rain-fed crop production which expose seedlings and grown-up crop plants to serious damage. In this study, we recorded occurrence data of Limicolaria flammea in okra, carrot, sweet potato, lettuce and maize within a single multi-crop organic farm in order to u

Les meilleures performances biologiques sont obtenuesà la densité de 100 escargots /m2 qui induit une bonne ingestion alimentaire (0,14 ± 0,002 g/j/g de poids vif), une meilleure croissance, une faible mortalité (16%) et permet aux escargots de produire plusieur

Abstract:
Polygalacturonases constitute the major part of pectinase preparations for many bioprocess purposes. Investigation on the digestive juice of snail Limicolaria flammea led to purification of two polygalacturonases named PG1 and PG2. Properties of these enzymes were examined to explore their potential in biotechnology applications. A three steps procedure including size exclusion, anion and cation exchange and hydrophobic interaction chromatography were used for purification. The enzymes PG1 and PG2 had native molecular weights of approximately 46 and 86 kDa, respectively and functioned both as

The present study investigates the mineral, fatty acid and amino acids composition of E. radiata, V. contectus and L. flammea. All samples analyzed in this study were obtained from Yenagoa in Bayelsa state of Nigeria. Mineral composition was determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS), fatty acids were determined by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) while amino acids composition was determined by gas chromatography (GC). Eight (8) nutritionally essential minerals were detected in all samples analyzed in this study; the concentration of minerals in order of increasing co
