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 abstractAlkali Pretreatment and Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cattails from Constructed WetlandsBo Zhang, Abolghasem Shahbazi, Lijun Wang et al.Problem statement: To date, production of liquid fuel, particularly ethanol, has only been economically feasible from food crops that are high in sugar and starch. However, the use of arable land for fuel rather than for food production and the use of a food source for fuel rather than as food have created issues in prices and availability of traditional … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,105 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormulation and Evaluation of a Selective Medium for Lactic Acid Bacteria-Validation on Some Dairy ProductsBaida Djeghri-Hocine, Messaouda Boukhemis, Abdeltif AmraneProblem statement: Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) is characterized by fastidious nutritional requirements leading to the need for complex and rich media to allow growth. Owing to their complex requirements which also varied significantly with species, the formulation of selective media for LAB is difficult. Approach: A culture medium for LAB was previously developed based on deproteinated whey supplemented with yeast … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,410 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro and In vivo Anti-Microbial Effects of Nigella sativa Linn. Seed Extracts Against Clinical Isolates from Skin Wound InfectionsMariam A. Abu-Al-BasalcProblem statement: The developing microbial resistance to the existing anti-microbial agents has become a real challenge and a serious problem facing patients suffering from skin infections. Seeds of Nigella sativa have been used for a long time in folk medicine for the treatment of such infections. Production of new potent agents is urgently needed, especially for hospitals and health centers. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 8,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Soft Wood Wastes as a Feed Stock to Produce Fuel EthanolAdnan M. Khalil, Ali F. Al-Shawabkeh, Ayman S. Mazahreh et al.Problem statement: The current research investigated the utilization of soft wood waste as a feedstock to produce a value-added product-fuel ethanol. Approach: The main issue in converting soft wood waste to fuel ethanol is the accessibility of the polysaccharides for breaking down into monosaccharides. This study focused on the use of steam as the pretreatment method. The governing factors for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Growth, Sensory Characteristic and pH as Potential Spoilage Indicators of Chinese Yellow Wet Noodles from Commercial Processing PlantsSuwaibah Ghaffar, Abdulamir AS, Fatimah Abu Bakar et al.Problem statement: This study was conducted to evaluate the potential use of microbial growth, sensory characteristic (odour) and pH as potential spoilage indicators of Chinese yellow wet noodles. Approach: Samples were collected from 3 commercial processing plants namely, Automated Processing (AP), Semi-automated Processing (SP) and Manual Processing (MP). The samples were kept at ambient temperature (28±2 °C) and monitored microbiologically … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,575 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Unusual Association between Chromoblastomycosis and Jorge Lobo’s Disease in the Same Patient from the Amazon RegionMaurimelia M. da Costa, Silvia H. Marques da Silva, Hugo J. R. Almeida et al.A clinical case of co-infection Cladophialophora sp. and Lacazia loboi is described and in a same patient with an 18-year history of verrucous plaques and parakeloidal nodular lesions. A 50-yearold man, a laborer, living in the Anajás city, Para, Brazil (rural Amazon region), was seen at the Evandro Chagas Institute’s ambulatory.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeat Balance Analysis During the Production of Jadomycin CT. J. Burdock, A. H. Giffin, M.S. Brooks, A.E. GhalyJadomycins are novel antibiotics that exhibit biological activity against bacteria and yeast and also demonstrate cytotoxicity against cancer cells. Jadomycin C was successfully produced from 10 L of fermentation media in a 19 L bioreactor using Streptomyces venezuelae ISP5230 which was shocked with ethanol. The bioreactor temperature and pH were successfully maintained at 30°C and 7, respectively. The heat of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Nano-silver Formation by Fusarium oxysporum PTCC 5115 Employing Response Surface MethodologyM. Karbasian, S. M. Atyabi, S. D. Siadat et al.Fusarium oxysporum was grown in medium containing malt, yeast extracts and glucose on shaker at 25±1°C and180 rpm for 96 h. The mycelia were used to convert silver nitrate solution into nano-silver. The bioconversion was optimized through response surface methodology-central composite design .The factors which affected the process were pH, temperature, agitation rate, concentration of silver nitrate, time of reaction … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Heat Shock Transcription Factor Family in Entamoeba histolyticaConsuelo G. García, Ma. De la Luz Macias Argüelles, D. Guillermo P Ishiwara et al.The HSTF is a master molecule involved in the transcriptional control of several genes during different types of stress.
