Aldose 1-epimerase or mutarotase is the enzyme that responsible for
carbohydrate metabolism and converts the alpha anomer into beta
anomer of glucose. This enzyme was extracted from bovine kidney
cortex. Crude enzyme exhibited the activity of 14.92 U mL-1 with
specific activity of 0.153 U mg-1 proteins. The enzyme activity and
specific activity was increased to 53.75 UmL-1 4.981 Umg-1
respectively after 38-60% ammonium sulfate precipitation and it was
further increased to 73.27 UmL-1 and 11.67 Umg-1 when subjected to
diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) cellulose chromatography. Further
purification was carried out by passing it through Sephadex G-150
column and observed increase in activity 79.26 UmL-1 with 19.55
Umg-1 specific activity. The optimum pH and temperature were
recorded as 8.5 and 37 oC respectively. Different stabilizers
(glycerol, sodium benzoate, sodium citrate) were used to study
their effect on stability of enzyme.

Diarrhea a leading cause of illness and death in children in
developing countries may lead to the cause of dehydration resulting
from loss of water and electrolytes and lack of absorption of
nutrients due to inflammatory bowel. A total of forty (40) blood
samples were collected from normal and diarrheal children from
Allied and Civil Hospital, Faisalabad belong to middle
socio-economic class. Blood samples were collected with and without
anticoagulant from each individual for separation of serum which
was presented at -2 C. Serum biochemicals, hormones and health
markers were estimated in triplicate while using standard
procedures of analysis. A significant high concentration of LDL,
ALT, homocysteine, total oxidant status, K and Mg while serum
triglyceride, total proteins, albumin, globulin, T3, T4, total
antioxidant status, Na, Ca, Zn and Cu were significantly low in
patients with diarrhea. Diarrhea patients have shown a significant
increase in DNA damage. In addition, DNA damage has shown a
positive correlation with glucose, LDL and with potassium while
negative correlation was observed with total proteins, thyroxine,
total antioxidant status, sodium and calcium
