Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Constituents and Bacteriostatic Activity of Essential Oil Extracted from Sea Buckthorn Seeds by Different MethodsHepeng Zhao, Fuyin Zhao, Qian Xiao et al.Sea buckthorn is a homologous plant listed in Chinese pharmacopoeia. The Essential Oils (EOs) of Sea Buckthorn Seeds (SBTS) are widely used in medicine and health products in China, Russia and other countries. The extraction methods of SBTS with advantages of low cost, high yield and high activity have attracted considerable attention. In this study, the extraction rate, chemical compositions … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2021 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicroflora Contribution to Cellulase and Digestion Enzyme in Mud Crab Digestive TractSiti Aslamyah, Yushinta Fujaya, Nita RukminasariMicroflora in the digestive tract of aquatic animals is thought to be not only the microbes that contribute to the production of cellulase enzymes but also contribute to other digestive enzymes, such as protease, amylase and lipase. This study aims to examine the microflora contribution to the mud crab’s digestive tract. Scylla sp. were maintained in the crab box individually … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2021 · 6,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Interferon-Gamma Release Assay Results for Latent Tuberculosis Infection Diagnosis at a Referral Clinical Laboratory in South KoreaTae Soung Kim, Ga Yeon Kim, Young Ki Lee, Jae Kyung KimThe world health organization states that individuals with Latent Tuberculosis Infection (LTBI) are infected with Tuberculosis (TB) bacteria but do not show symptoms of active disease. However, they are at possibility of developing vigorous TB and potentially transmitting the illness to others. In 2018, South Korea reported a 14.8% positivity rate in LTBI screening, with higher rates observed among older … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 25 Oct 2023 · 6,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNon-Target Inhibition of Antioxidant Enzymes in Honey Bees (A. mellifera and A. florea) Upon Pesticide ExposureAmal Ahmed Berjawi, Syed Salman Ashraf, Mohammad Ali Al-DeebUnderstanding how different insecticides influence bee health is very essential. The aim of this work was to evaluate enzyme kinetics and inhibition by insecticides in Apis mellifera and Apis florea. Tested enzymes showed variable affinity to substrates. In A. florea, glutathione S-transferase (GST) showed significantly higher affinity for its 1-Chloro-2,4-Dinitrobenzene (CDNB) substrate than in A. mellifera. Carbosulfan caused the highest … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2020 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQSAR Modeling of Thirty Active Compounds for the Inhibition of the Acetylcholinesterase EnzymeNour El Houda Hammoudi, Yacine Benguerba, Widad SobhiThis work aims at developing a reliable and predictive QSAR model which allows, on one hand, an exploration of the main molecular descriptors responsible for the inhibitory activity towards the Acetylcholinesterase enzyme and, on the other hand, predict the inhibitory activity of new compounds before testing them experimentally. This study involves a series of DL0410 and its 29 DL0410 derivatives. … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2020 · 11,426 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction and Characterization of Hydrocarbon Degrading Peroxidase from Rhizopus and Saccharomyces SpeciesFerdinand U. Paschaline, Onyeocha O. Ignatius, Ezeji E. Uchechukwu et al.The production, characterization and partial purification of hydrocarbon degrading peroxidase from di-culture of Rhizopus and Saccharomyces species was assessed. The fungi were isolated from hydrocarbon polluted soil and identified using standard microbiological and biochemical techniques. Fermentation was carried out for enzyme production and the extracellular extract was precipitated with 50% ammonium sulphate salts and further purified by gel filtrationusing sephadex … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 7 Dec 2019 · 7,398 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGadolinium at Low Concentration Suppresses both Osteoclastic and Osteoblastic Activities in the Scales of GoldfishNobuo Suzuki, Kazuki Watanabe, Aika Sekimoto et al.For determining the effect of environmental pollutants on fish bone metabolism, we have developed an in vitro bioassay system using teleost scales that has osteoclasts, osteoblasts and bone matrix as markers: alkaline phosphatase (ALP) for osteoblasts and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) for osteoclasts. Using this bioassay, the influence of gadolinium (Gd) on osteoclasts and osteoblasts of goldfish scales was examined … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 20 Sep 2019 · 8,451 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction, Extraction and Characterization of Lipases from the Antarctic Yeast Guehomyces pullulansLuis Lascano-Demera, Patricia Portero Barahona, Enrique Javier Carvajal BarrigaThe production of extracellular lipases from the Antarctic yeast Guehomyces pullulans is induced using an olive oil medium as an inductor substrate and a first characterization of its enzyme, using the protein extract obtained from the medium, is described. For this, the effect of pH and temperature on the lipase activity are evaluated and the enzyme kinetic for the lipase … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2019 · 10,020 accessesView PDFCite

The conducted studies revealed the leading enzymatic properties of bifidobacteria in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 4 Oct 2018 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOligoasthenoteratozoospermia and Necrozoospermia: A Study of Sperm Na+, K+-ATPase α4 and Plasma Membrane Ca2+-ATPase 4 RegulationSilvia W. Lestari, Dessy Noor Miati, AsmarinahThe oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT) and necrozoospermia are the extreme sperm abnormalities in male infertility. These sperm abnormalities may be related to the imbalance of ion transport which mediated by the ion-transporting P-type ATPases, such as Na+, K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase. Until now, there is limited data about the activity of Na+, K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase in sperms in the OAT and necrozoospermia samples. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 3 Aug 2018 · 11,269 accessesView PDFCite
