Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlant Growth Promoting Activity of Actinomycetes Isolated from Soybean RhizosphereAris Tri Wahyudi, Jepri Agung Priyanto, Resti Afrista et al.Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) is considered as the biological agent for improving plant growth. One Group of PGPR that have an important role in growth promoting of plant is Actinomycetes. The objective of this study was to isolate and screen Actinomycetes isolated from soybean rhizosphere as growth promoter of soybean in vitro. Fifty-three Actinomycetes isolates have successfully been isolated … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2019 · 14,604 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNature of Price Adjustment and Market Integration among Stages in Cassava Value Addition Chain in Southern NigeriaSunday B. Akpan, Glory E. Emmanuel, Inimfon V. PatrickAgricultural price behaviour in the long run depends on several factors ranging from the socio-economic, environmental and political environment among others. This study tested for the long run price adjustment mechanism between the producer price of raw cassava in the rural market and retailed price of its derivatives in urban market in the Southern region of Nigeria. The study was … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 14 Oct 2015 · 7,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Production of Extracellular Alkaline Lipase by an Improved Strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC 10,055Deepali Bisht, Santosh Kumar Yadav, Nandan Singh DarmwalProblem statement: Lipases are industrially important enzymes having applications in numerous industries. For easy commercialization it is necessary to produce lipases at industrial level which could be achieved by strain improvement and medium formulation. Approach: In the present study strain improvement of Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC 10,055 was done by chemical mutagenesis using mutagen 4-nitroquinoline1-oxide for alkaline lipase production. Different fermentation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 24 Nov 2011 · 8,760 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSlow Fungal Hydrolysis of Complex Sugar is Responsible for the Use of Sugar as Vehicle for Antifungal DrugsNedosa Ikenna Valentine, Utoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Dan Danjuma et al.Problem statement: Aspergillus niger strain (UUF 9202) significantly reduced the dormancy period and boosted aggregate germination time in seeds of Tetrapleura tetraptera by 42% in 32 days and produced a net reduction in mean germination time of the seeds to 12 days. A structure-fungitoxicity relationship study of a series of isoflavonoids against Aspergillus niger and Cladosporium cucumerinum showed that a … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 2 Nov 2011 · 7,665 accessesView PDFCite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,461 accessesView PDFCite
