Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus PCR in Detecting Target(s) of Hapalindole-T, From a Cyanobacterium, in Escherichia Coli: In Silico ValidationManoj K. Tripathi, Maheep Kumar, Vinay K. Singh et al.Problem statement: Identification of newer biomolecule as well as targets are a rising concern because of increasing drug resistance in bacteria. We have isolated a broad spectrum antibiotic biomolecule Hapalindole-T from a cyanobacterium, Fisherella sp. growing on local Azadirachta indica tree bark. A model bacterium E. coli was screened spontaneously for Hap-T resistance. These resistant strains of E. coli were … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 13,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolid State Fermentation of Mexican Oregano (Lippia Berlandieri Schauer) WastePaola Melendez-Renteria, Virginia Nevarez-Moorillon, R. Rodriguez-Herrera, Cristobal Noe AguilarProblem statement: Mexican oregano is recognized for their aromatic characteristics and flavor quality. Principal products obtained from the plant and marketing are the leaves and essential oil; however the extraction of the essential oil generates large amounts of agro industrial wastes; that can be used as support-substrates in Solid-State Fermentations (SSF). Approach: In this study a fungal bioprocess, as solid … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 8,475 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Dynamics Simulation of DENV RNA-Dependent RNA-Polymerase with Potential Inhibitor of Disulfide Cyclic PeptideUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Raima Syahidah Noors, Arli Aditya Parikesit et al.Problem statement: Our researches have proposed two ligands of disulfide cyclic polypeptide, which are CDEEC and CDGSC as potential inhibitor of DENV RNA-dependent RNApolymerase by molecular docking. Approach: Methodological approach was conducted to determine the best ligand to act as inhibitor. Molecular docking simulation was conducted without a solvent in which enzyme was made rigid and ligand was left free … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2011 · 8,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCellulolytic Enzymes Production by Solid State Culture Using Pecan Nut Shell as Substrate and SupportMiguel A. Medina-Morales, José L. Martínez-Hernández, Heliodoro de la Garza, Cristóbal Noé AguilarProblem Statement: Great interest in the use of lignocellulosic biomass is increasing in order to diminish the accumulation of residues, such as pecan nut shells. One of the alternatives is the fungal degradation of these residues. Approach: The capacity of Trichoderma (coded as T1, T2 and T3) strains to produce cellulase and xylonite was evaluated. Results: Pecan nut shell fibers … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 8,023 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDamage Pattern and Nesting Characteristic of Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) in Oil Palm on PeatWei-Hong Lau, Choon-Fah J. Bong, Seow-Phan ChanThe oil palm industry of Malaysia has expanded into peat area in Sarawak. Problem statement: The subterranean termite Coptotermes curvignathus was a serious pest of oil palm on peat. Control of this termite has resorted to heavy usage of chemicals which was deemed uneconomical and hostile to the environment.
