Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibacterial Activity of Lotus Leaves (Nelumbo Nucifera) Against Food-Borne PathogensJianxin Chen, Changyin Wang, Xiaotian Chen et al.The antibacterial activity of different solvent extracts from lotus leaves against four food-borne bacteria (Escherichiacoli, Salmonellatyphimurium, Staphyloccocusaureus, Bacillussubtilis) was analyzed by agar diffusion method and the ethanol extract of the plant was found to have the highest antimicrobial activity with the diameter of inhibition zones ranging from 17.2 to 17.8 mm. Then the ethanol extract of lotus leaves were further … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 18 Nov 2014 · 10,152 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRESPONSE SURFACE METHODOLOGY ANALYSIS OF POLYPHENOL RECOVERY FROM ARTICHOKE WASTEAntonio ZuorroLarge amounts of a solid waste consisting mainly of outer bracts and stems are produced from the industrial processing of artichokes. In this study, the recovery of polyphenols from the two waste components was investigated. Extraction experiments were carried outby an environmentally friendly procedure using aqueous ethanol as solvent. The total polyphenol content, expressed as mg of GAE per g … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 3 Jul 2014 · 7,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDESIGN OF CANDIDA ANTARCTICA LIPASE B THERMOSTABILITY IMPROVEMENT BY INTRODUCING EXTRA DISULFIDE BOND INTO THE ENZYMEUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Ahmad Randy, Arli Aditya ParikesitCandida Antarctica Lipase B (CALB) is extensively studied in enzymatic production of biodiesel, pharmaceutical products, detergents and other chemicals. One drawback of using CALB is its relatively low optimum temperature at 313 K (40°C). The objective of this research is to design CALB mutant with improved thermostability by introducing extra disulfide bond. Molecular dynamic simulation was conducted to get better … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 18 Apr 2014 · 9,492 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Extraction Conditions on the Recovery of Phenolic Antioxidants from Spent Coffee GroundsAntonio Zuorro, Roberto LavecchiaThe extraction of phenolic compounds from Spent Coffee Grounds (SCG), a waste produced in large amounts worldwide, was investigated. SCG were rich in fiber and protein and had a total phenolic content of 18.75±0.43 mg GAE per gram dry weight. Extraction experiments were carried out in batch mode, using ethanol-water mixtures as solvent. A two-level factorial design was used to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 28 May 2013 · 8,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIN SILICO DESIGN OF THE M2 PROTON CHANNEL INHIBITORS OF H1N1 VIRUSUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Mochamad Reza Rahdiansyah, Arli Aditya ParikesitM2 proton channel of H1N1 Influenza A virus is the target protein anti-flu drugs amantadine and rimantadine. However, the two once powerful adamantane-based drugs lost their 90% bioactivity because of mutations of virus in recent twenty years. The resistance of influenza A virus to amantadine need to develop more effective adamantane-based drugs. Several research by molecular docking method have been … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2013 · 7,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Supercritical Fluid Extraction and BioprocessingOwen Catchpole, Stephen Tallon, Peter Dyer et al.Supercritical fluids are increasingly being used and promoted at a laboratory and pilot scale to produce high value, natural bioactives from biologically based raw materials. Supercritical CO2 is overwhelmingly the solvent of choice for these operations, but is largely limited to the processing of dry raw materials and the extraction of low polarity, low molecular weight compounds. The use of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 9,488 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpoxy Insulators’ Lifetime Prediction Implementing Neural Network TechniqueL. S. Nasrat, A. M. IbrahimDue to wide implementation of Epoxy insulators in industrial applications and its economic implications; development of various Epoxy insulator materials has to be evaluated along with a reliable prediction methodology of their lifetimes. In this study, a new methodology based on Artificial-Neural-Networks (ANN) is developed to predict Epoxy insulators lifetime using laboratory measurements of their surface leakage current under accelerated … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 7 Aug 2012 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdhesion and Hardness Evaluation of Modified Silicone-Dammar as Natural Coating MaterialsR. Zakaria, A. H. AhmadProblem statement: Dammar is a natural resin that used anciently in varnish production. The use of dammar natural resin in coating is limited by undesirable properties for application in coating where it is considered very brittle. Due to dammar's brittle nature, an aged dammar coating can be easily scratched or abraded. Approach: Dammar natural resin could be modified into Silicone-Dammar … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 20 Mar 2012 · 7,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantification of Zolpidem in Canine PlasmaMario Giorgi, Alessandra Gavazza, Hyoin YunProblem statement: Zolpidem is a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic agent currently used in human medicine. In contrast to benzodiazepines, zolpidem preferentially binds with the GABAA complex ϖ1 receptors while poorly interacting with the other ϖ receptor complexes. Recent studies have suggested that ZP may be used to initiate sedation and diminish severe anxiety responses in dogs. The aim of the present study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2012 · 7,908 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSequential Remediation Processes for Effective Removal of Oil from Contaminated SoilsDeepika Dave, Reema Alharathi, Abdel GhalyProblem statement: Over 2.2 billions of oil and oil products were transported every year and often these activities can result in air, water and soil contamination. Expousure to petroleum products can cause health problems to humn and animals and affect marine animals and wildlife habitats. Approach: The objective of this study was to developed a technology for the remediation of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 18 Nov 2011 · 8,183 accessesView PDFCite
