Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnti-Proliferative Activity of Zerumbone Against Tumour Cell LinesAdel Sharaf Al-ZubairiZerumbone (ZER) is a cytotoxic phytochemical component extracted from the tropical herbal plant, Zingiber Zerumbet smith. It has been identified as an active anticancer compound. This study was aimed to evaluate in vitro the anti-proliferative activity of this bioactive compound, zerumbone, on seven cancer cell lines namely: CEMss (T4-lymphoplastoid), Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO), 3T3 (mouse fibroblast), WEHI-3 (murine monomyelocytic leukemia), … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 25 Apr 2018 · 8,317 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBioactive Compounds from Sponge Associated Bacteria: Anticancer Activity and NRPS-PKS Gene Expression in Different Carbon SourcesJepri Agung Priyanto, Rika Indri Astuti, Jun Nomura, Aris Tri WahyudiSponge associated bacteria with diverse NRPS-PKS genes could be the alternative source of bioactive compounds. This study aimed to analyze the activity as well as the regulatory mechanism regarding the anticancer properties derived from these bacteria against cancer cell lines. Extraction of bacterial metabolites using ethyl acetate solvent resulted yield ranging from 0.003 to 0.016% (w/v). Six extracts of bacterial … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2017 · 8,886 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Heavy Metals on the Enzymatic Activity of Haplic Chernozem under Model Experimental ConditionsNatalia Gromakova, Saglara Mandzhieva, Tatiana Minkina et al.The biological activity of soils is an essential parameter of their ecological status. The anthropogenic Heavy Metals (HMs) disturb the normal functioning of soil biota and, hence, the entire soil system. The aim of this work was to estimate the toxicity of loosely bound HM compounds in Haplic Chernozem using parameters of cellulose-degrading and urease activities. Contamination of Haplic Chernozem … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2017 · 7,994 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleScreening of Yeast Strains for Pectinolytic Activity: Effects of Different Carbon and Nitrogen Sources in Submerged FermentationsMustafa Oskay, Hüsniye Tansel YalçinTwenty yeast strains were screened for pectinolytic activity, among the strains, only nine were positive for pectinase production. The best strain was Kluyveromyces marxianus NRRL-Y-1109 which gave high quantities of pectinase activity, by submerged fermentation. Different parameters such as incubation time, pH (3.5-7), temperature (20-45°C), nitrogen and carbon source, were optimized. The optimal incubation time, temperature and pH for pectinase … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 22 Jun 2015 · 7,812 accessesView PDFCite
