## BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to determine the physicochemical properties of starches isolated from Malawian cocoyams and compare them with those of cassava and corn starches. ## RESULTS: The purity of the isolated starches varied from 851 to 947 g kg -1 and pH from 4.93 to 6.95. Moist

## Abstract The structure of a radiationโprotective sulfated polysaccharide, SPโAPS, isolated from __Spirulina platensis__, was investigated by methylation analysis, partial acetolysis and ^1^HโNMR spectroscopy. The repeatingโunit of SPโAPS as branched structures was elucidated.
The isolated brush border membrane of the tapeworm, Hymenolepis diminuta, hydrolyzes p-nitrophenyl phosphate over a broad pH range. Acid phosphatase activity (pH optimum at 4.0) is inhibited specifically by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and NaF, while the alkaline phosphatase activity (pH optimum at
