Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Chitosan-poly (Ethylene Oxide) Blends as Haemodialysis MembraneN. F. Mohd Nasir, N. Mohd Zain, M. G. Raha, N. A. KadriBlend membranes of chitosan and poly (ethylene oxide) with different molecular weights of 100,000 and 600,000 were prepared by the solution cast technique. The Chitosan-PEO blend membranes were produced to study their water adsorptions capacity and characteristics of the haemodialysis membrane application. An increase in the water adsorption capacity of chitosan-PEO blend membranes compared to the pure chitosan was due … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,430 accessesView PDFCite

Mohamed, Hala M. GhanemProblem statement: Rats fed high dietary fructose are documented to form an acquired model of insulin resistance; the present study aims to investigate possible changes in lens crystallins of rats fed high fructose diet and the effects of administration of each exogenous L-Carnitine (CA) and Cinnamon Extract (CE) on protein glycation, oxidative stress and redox homeostasis in this rat model. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 3 Aug 2011 · 8,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Ferrous Ion Chelating Properties of Collagen Peptides from Dried and Fresh Cod SkinMengqian Chen, Cen Chen, Junchao Wu et al.Fish skin is a potential source of collagen and collagen is a protein source of bioactive peptides including iron chelating peptides. The aim of this study is to compare physicochemical properties of collagen extracted from fresh and dried cod skin and the ferrous ion chelating properties of collagen hydrolysates. Then the fresh and dried cod skin extracted collagen was hydrolyzed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 2 Jul 2021 · 7,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Chemical Coagulants for Oscillatoria sp. Removal from Raw Water on Chemical Coagulation ProcessSaowapak Thammasane, Thaniya KaosolGrowing Oscillatoria sp. in freshwater causes several poisoning episodes of domestic livestock animal and human. The chemical coagulation of raw water using chemical coagulants is very simple and requiring less investment cost on equipment. These experiments used alum and PACl (Polyaluminium chloride) with alum as chemical coagulants for Oscillatoria sp. removal. The Oscillatoria sp. was prepared from Molecular and Cell … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 14 Dec 2018 · 8,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Characterization of Bacillus thuringiensis from soil habitat of Auky Island, Padaido District in Biak Numfor Regency and Its Toxicity against Mosquito Larva of Anopheles spLantang Daniel, Rampa Ester, Lunga NellyBacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is bacteria that produce protein crystals as an insecticidal against various vector diseases in plants and animals including humans. The purpose of this research is to discover the local isolate toxicity of B. thuringiensis from Auky Island Padaido District in Biak Numfor Regency against mosquito larva Anopheles sp., as well as to discover the local isolate of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2018 · 9,149 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Ultra Violet Radiation on Polyethylene Packaged Water Exposed at Varying Conditions: Are we Drinking Micro-Plastics?James Matthew Anayo, Victor Eshu Okpashi, Ikechukwu N.E. OnwurahThe public is worried about how their health is impacted by microplastics in sachet water. This awareness has repercussion for water producing factories and public health organization in managing health hazard associated with microplastic ingestion. Many countries in Africa, with concern to Nigeria, the act of packaging water in polyethylene materials by water producing factories has become accustomed. These packaged … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2018 · 9,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeterologous Expression and Biochemical Characterization of Lipase from Burkholderia cepacia Lu10-1Yao Zhang, Lu Wang, Yuanda SongEven though lipase genes from a variety of microorganism have been cloned and over-expressed, the prospective lipase resources for commercial production and industry application are still limited. In the present study, a lipase from Burkholderia cepacia Lu10-1 is heterologously over-expressed in Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3) and purified to homogeneity. The molecular weight of the recombinant lipase from B. cepacia Lu10-1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2017 · 8,766 accessesView PDFCite
