Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Geobacillus thermodenitrificans Lipase Activity and Binding Affinity by Acetone Treatment: Kinetic and in silico InvestigationsAmmar Khazaal Kadhim Almansoori, Alyaa Abdulhussein Alsaedi et al.Lipase Geobacillus thermodenitrificans (LipGt) is a thermostable enzyme that has an optimal activity temperature of 65°C. It can tolerate various organic solvents and has an improved activity, especially in the presence of acetone. In this study, in-vitro and in-silico studies were carried out to investigate the effect of acetone in enhancing the kinetic and binding affinity of LipGt. The LipGt … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2024 · 4,821 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShelf-Life Prediction of Specialty Coffees using the Arrhenius ModelFrank Fernández Rosillo, María Alina Cueva Ríos, Lenin Quiñones Huatangari, Carla Guianella Samaniego LalanguiThe study estimated the shelf life of roasted and ground specialty coffees in bi-laminated and tri-laminated packaging concerning cup score, using the Acceleration Test at temperatures of 40, 50, and 60°C. The sensory evaluation was carried out by Q Grader tasters. Based on the higher value of the coefficient of determination of the regressions resulting from the cup and temperature … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2022 · 6,885 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethadone and Dexmedetomidine Combination as Premedicant Agents for Ovariectomy in CatsH. Tayari, I. Vannozzi, G. Breghi, A. BrigantiThe purpose of this study was to assess sedative and analgesic effects produced by the association of methadone and dexmedetomidine, administered intramuscularly as premedication for ovariectomy in cats. Twenty-four healthy cats were enrolled in the study. The values of heart and respiratory rate were recorded as Tbase. Cats received methadone 0.5 mg kg-1 and dexmedetomidine 5 mcg kg-1 IM. Sedation … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 27 Jun 2015 · 8,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLIPASE-CATALYZED TRANSESTERIFICATION OF PALM KERNEL OIL WITH DIALKYLCARBONATESTjahjono Herawan, M. Rüsch Gen. KlaasLipase-catalyzed transesterifications-especially in a solvent-free medium-are important for industrial applications because such systems would have an enormous advantage by avoiding the problem of separation, toxicity and flammability of organic solvents. However, the organic solvent-free alcoholysis, especially methanolysis, does not give high conversions. The same problem also occurs when ethyl or methyl acetate are used as acyl acceptors. The main problems … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 6 May 2014 · 6,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Mathematical Modelling of Reaction Kinetics for Cyclodextrins Production from Different Starch Sources Using Bacillus macerans Cyclodextrin GlucanotransferaseSyahinaz Shahrazi, Suryani Saallah, Mohd Noriznan Mokhtar et al.This study relates to the mathematical modelling of enzymatic production of Cyclodextrins (CDs) by Cyclodextrin Glucanotransferase (CGTase) from Bacillus macerans. The experiments were carried out in batch mode using different starch sources and the results were used to estimate unknown parameters using linearization and dynamic simulation methods. α- and β-CD produced from tapioca were found to give the highest Michaelis-Menten … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2013 · 7,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrowave Assisted Bioethanol Production from Sago Starch by Co-Culturing of Ragi Tapai and Saccharomyces CerevisiaeN. Saifuddin, Refal HussainProblem statement: Environmental issues such as global warming and recent events throughout the world, including the shortage of petroleum crude oil, the sharp increase in the cost of oil and the political instability of some crude oil producing countries, have demonstrated the vulnerability of the present sources for liquid fuel. These situations have created great demand for ethanol from fermentation … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2011 · 7,903 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModelisation of Nitrification under Inhibited Environment by Moving Bed Bio-Film Reactor TechniquePham Thi Hong Duc, Le Van Cat, Jean-Luc VaselProblem statement: Nitrification by Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) involves physical, chemical and biological processes to remove toxic ammonia for aquaculture that are governed by a variety of parameters, like substrate and dissolved oxygen concentrations, organic matters, temperature, pH, alkalinity and turbulence level, which impact negatively or positively on nitrification kinetics. Approach: The situation becomes more serious as the reaction … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 6,951 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethanol-Based Transesterification Optimization of Waste Used Cooking Oil over Potassium Hydroxide CatalystCholada Komintarachat, Sathaporn ChuepengProblem statement: Waste used Cooking Oil (WCO) harmfully affected to environment and human’s health can be a feedstock for producing biodiesel. Approach: The conversion of Fatty Acid and Free Fatty Acid (FFA) of WCO with 15.0% w/w FFA content to biodiesel was studied through transesterification reactions. This work investigated the effects of alcohol and catalyst quantity, reaction time and temperature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,748 accessesView PDFCite
