Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Heirloom Tomato Polyphenol Extracts on Expression of Inflammation Genes in BovineKwaku Gyenai, Nona Mikiashvili, Hamid Ismail, Mulumebet WorkuThe effect of tomato on diseases of economic importance continues to be of broad interest. To evaluate these relationships, the effect of crude extracts of Cherokee purple tomato on pro-inflammatory genes and cytokines were evaluated. Neutrophils from three Holstein Fresian cows were treated with Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) or E. coli O111-B4 Lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Treated cells were exposed to different … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2012 · 8,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiochemical Studies of Lipase from Germinating Oil Seeds (Glycine max)P. P. Gadge, S. D. Madhikar, J. N. Yewle et al.Problem statement: Lipase is one of the important enzymes in food, pharmaceutical, detergent and biofuels industries. Search for the lipase with distinct features, possibly from germinating seeds, is of interest for industrial applications. Approach: The lipase produced by soybean oil seeds was partially purified and characterized in terms of the optimal pH and temperature for activity as well as substrate … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 19 Jan 2012 · 9,703 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInterleukin-10, Mean Arterial Blood Pressure and Insulin Resistance in Normal PregnancyAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Reza Farjam, Mohammad Hassan Davami et al.Problem statement: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether serum of Interleukin-10 (IL-10) Concentration change during normal pregnancy and, if so, to relate these changes corresponding alterations in insulin resistance and blood pressure. Approach: This cross sectional study was carried out on 86 healthy pregnant women including 26, 23 and 37 individuals in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 2 Dec 2011 · 7,815 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEnhanced 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 keywordsOccupational Exposure of Pesticides on Activities of Alanine aminotransferase and γ-Glutamyltranspeptidase in Blood among Vegetables FarmersShamsul Bahari Shamsudin, T. Hang YapProblem statement: Most vegetable farmers are using agricultural chemicals on their farms. Many of these chemicals are used to control pests and are known as pesticides. Pesticides can be considered according to their chemical basis. Most of the more toxic pesticides fall into chemical groups of organophosphates, carbamates and bipyridyls. Approach: The general objective to study the level of liver … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 4 Oct 2011 · 7,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicrowave Assisted Bioethanol Production from Sago Starch by Co-Culturing of Ragi Tapai and Saccharomyces CerevisiaeN. Saifuddin, Refal HussainProblem statement: Environmental issues such as global warming and recent events throughout the world, including the shortage of petroleum crude oil, the sharp increase in the cost of oil and the political instability of some crude oil producing countries, have demonstrated the vulnerability of the present sources for liquid fuel. These situations have created great demand for ethanol from fermentation … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2011 · 7,898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIdentification a Novel Raw-Starch-Degrading-α-Amylase from a Tropical Marine BacteriumZeily Nurachman, Alfredo Kono, Ocky Karna Radjasa, Dessy NataliaProblem statement: Bacteria from the surface of the tropical marine hard coral Acropora sp. were screened for producing raw-starch-degrading-α-amylase. Approach: Based on its 16s rDNA sequence, a bacterium that produced the highest amylolitic activity was identified as Bacillus amyloliquifaciens ABBD. The bacterial isolate secreted a α-amylase extracellularly and then the enzyme was partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 9,329 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnti β2-Glycoprotein I Antibodies in Women with Recurrent Spontaneous AbortionAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Reza Farjam, Farideh Mogharrab et al.Problem statement: Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are associated with repeated miscarriages and pregnancy complications, however their pathogenic mechanisms are still matter of research. Anti-β2 glycoprotein 1 (β2GPI) antibody is one of these aPL that its contribution to RSA risk remains poorly understood. There were not any data about role this auto-antibody in RSA in South of Iran. This study was conducted … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
