Objetivou-se neste trabalho avaliar a atividade de tripsina no quimo de tilápias-tailandesas submetidas a quatro temperaturas da água. Utilizaram-se alevinos machos com peso inicial de 0,835 ± 0,004 g distribuídos em aquários com temperaturas de 20, 24, 28 e 32ºC, alimentados à vontade com a mesma dieta e mantidos nessas condições até os 55 dias do experimento. As tilápias foram retiradas dos aquários e imediatamente colocadas em banho de gelo para morte e paralisação das atividades enzimáticas. Os intestinos médio e posterior foram retirados e acondicionados em frascos de polietileno de 2 mL. As amostras foram centrifugadas para determinação da atividade de tripsina no sobrenadante - feita utilizando-se N-Benzoil-D, L-arginina p-nitroanilida (D, L-BApNA) como substrato - e posterior leitura em espectrofotometria óptica. Tilápias-tailandesas machos mantidas em temperatura ambiente de 32ºC apresentam maior atividade de tripsina e menor atividade específica de tripsina.<br>The objective of this study was to evaluate the enzymatic activity of trypsin in the intestinal content of the Thai tilapia male submitted to four different water temperatures. Fingerlings with 0.835 ± 0.004 g initial body weight were distributed in fishbowls with temperatures of 20, 24, 28 and 32ºC. They were fed the same diet and maintained under these conditions until the 55th day of the experiment. The tilapias were removed from the fishbowls and immediately placed on ice for death and to halt the enzymatic activity. The middle and posterior intestines were removed and placed in 2 mL polyethylene flasks. The samples were centrifuged to determine the trypsin activity in the supernatant by using N-Benzoil-D, L-arginina p-nitroanilida (D,L-BApNA) as substrate -and later reading in an optical spectrophotometer. Male Thai tilapia submitted to 32ºC increased tripsin activity and decreased specific tripsin activity.

"Se evaluó el efecto de las enzimas de vísceras de sardi¬na Monterey en el tratamiento del agua de cola producida por sardinas crinuda y Monterey y, se compararon con enzimas de un extracto comercial. Además, se aplicó una centrifugación complementaria al ensayo. La enzima comercial tuvo mayor actividad proteasa que la enzima de víscera de sardina (0.65 U/mg vs. 0.35 U/mg) y que la actividad colagenasa (0.022 Hyp/mg/min vs. 0.0102 Hyp/mg/min). Se observaron grados de hidrolisis mayores sobre agua de cola de sardina crinuda (16.1 %), y no se registraron diferencias significativas (P≥0.05) en el agua de cola de sardina Monterey por el uso de las en¬zimas de vísceras de sardina Monterey y enzimas comercial. Se obtuvo mayor hidrolisis al aplicar la enzima de víscera de sardina Monterey sobre el agua de cola centrifugada (57.1 % vs. 17.4 %) sin importar la especie de sardina utilizada. La enzima comercial disminuyó la viscosidad sobre el agua de cola, mientras que la enzima de víscera de sardina Monterey lo hizo sobre el agua de cola centrifugada. La electroforesis mostró una disminución de la fracción PM>220 kDa en el agua de cola. Lo anterior, indicó que la enzima comercial tuvo una mayor actividad sobre agua de cola, mientras que la enzima de víscera de sardina Monterey lo tuvo en agua de cola centrifugada, sin importar el tipo de sardina utilizada para la elaboración del agua de cola." | "We evaluated the effect of Monterey sardines viscera enzyme on stickwater treatment produced by crinude and Monterey sardines and compared with commercial enzyme. In addition, we applied a complementary centrifugation to add in test. Commercial enzyme has greater protease activity than Monterey sardines viscera (0.65 U/mg vs. 0.35 U/mg) and collagenase activity (0.022 Hyp/mg/min vs. 0.0102 Hyp/mg/ min). Higher degree of hydrolysis on stickwater from crinude sardine (16.1 %), and no significant differences (P≥0.05) on stickwater from Monterey sardine between commercial en¬zyme and Monterey sardine viscera were observed. Degree of hydrolysis increased to application Monterey sardines vis¬cera on centrifuged stickwater (57.1 % vs. 17.4 %) regardless of which sardine specie it came from. Commercial enzyme reduced viscosity on stickwater while Monterey sardines viscera did it on centrifuged stickwater. The electrophoresis showed reduction on MW>220 kDa fraction in stickwater. The above, showed that commercial enzyme have a better activity on stickwater while Monterey sardines viscera did it better on the centrifuged stickwater, regardless sardine specie which the stickwater came from."
