Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFabrication of Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) Derived from Themeda gigantea Cellulose with Various Concentrations of Sodium MonochloroacetateDaimon Syukri, Heru Suryanto, Anni Faridah et al.The purpose of this study was to determine the properties of Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) obtained from pimping stems (Themeda gigantea). There has yet to be a report on utilizing Themeda gigantea as a source of CMC raw materials. CMC was produced by varying the amount of Sodium Monochloroacetate (SMCA) as a carboxymethylation material. This study consisted of five SMCA treatments, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 24 Oct 2024 · 5,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Adding Cellulose on Lipid Accumulation in Cellobiohydrolase and Delta-6 Desaturase Engineered Mucor circinelloides StrainsYao Zhang, Yanxia Wang et al.Despite microbial production of multifunctional gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) being an important and promising way, the high cost is still a major factor limiting industrial applications. Previously, we proposed a novel approach to promote the production of GLA from cellulose, a widely available and cheapest resource, by overexpression of the cellobiohydrolase (CBH2) and delta-6 desaturase (D6) in Mucor circinelloides. In the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 13 Oct 2023 · 4,731 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCFD-PBE Modelling and Simulation of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cellulose in a Stirred TankNorazaliza Mohd Jamil, Qi WangRenewable energy or biofuel from lignocellulosic biomass is an alternative way to replace the depleting fossil fuels. The production cost can be reduced by increasing the concentration of biomass particles. However, lignocellulosic biomass is a suspension of natural fibres and processing at high solid concentration is a challenging task because it will affect the mixing quality between the enzyme and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 25 Oct 2016 · 7,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIn Silico Analysis of Cellulose Synthase Gene (NcCesA1) in Developing Xylem Tissues of Neolamarckia CadambaTiong Shing Yiing, Ho Wei Seng, Pang Shek Ling, Ismail JusohThis study reported the isolation and in silico characterization of full-length cellulose synthase (CesA) cDNA from Neolamarckia cadamba, an important tropical plantation tree species. CesA is a member of processive glycosyltransferases that involved in cellulose biosynthesis of plants. CesA acts as a central catalyst in the generation of plant cell wall biomass or cellulose. It also plays an important role … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 13 Jan 2015 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIncorporation of Cellulose into a Chew Treat for Dogs Increases Elasticity and Chewing TimeA. C. BeynenProblem statement: We have reported earlier that administration of a treat containing a special cellulose preparation (Arbocel BWW40®), instead of a control treat without cellulose, diminishes the clinical signs of periodontal disease in dogs. Based on the physical characteristics of cellulose preparation, we hypothesized that treats with cellulose have greater elasticity and induce longer chewing time, leading to more mechanical … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 20 Oct 2011 · 7,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleClinical Signs of Hairballs in Cats Fed a Diet Enriched with CelluloseA. C. Beynen, J. Middelkoop, D. H.J. SarisProblem statement: The intake of cellulose may delay gastric emptying and raise the intestinal transit rate. These effects could antagonize hairball formation. Thus, it was hypothesized that a diet enriched with a cellulose preparation (Arbocel BWW40®), forming a completely insoluble fiber network, would diminish the severity of clinical symptoms of hairballs in cats. Approach: In a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 8 Aug 2011 · 11,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUse of a Mixture of Thermophilic Enzymes Produced by the Fungus Thermoascus aurantiacus to Enhance the Enzymatic Hydrolysis of the Sugarcane Bagasse CelluloseJ. R. Monte, W. Carvalho, A. M. F. MilagresProblem statement: The production of hydrolytic enzymes by T. aurantiacus has been performed under solid-state fermentations using lignocellulosic materials. The influences of the inoculum size and of the fermentation medium on the production of hemicellulases and cellulases were studied. Filtrates from the cultures were used to hydrolyze a pulp of sugarcane bagasse and the produced enzymes were shown to be … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2010 · 9,212 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBeneficial Effect of a Cellulose-Containing Chew Treat on Canine Periodontal Disease in a Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled TrialA. C. Beynen, F. Van Altena, E. A. VisserProblem statement: There are indications that appropriate chew treats can contribute to the control of canine periodontal disease. It was reasoned that the incorporation of a cellulose fiber network into the treat may improve the efficacy, but for proof experimental data were required. Approach: A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with privately owned dogs was carried out to assess the efficacy of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNephrocalcinosis in Female Rats Fed Diets Containing Either Pectin or CelluloseAhmed Alhaidary, H.E. Mohamed, A.C. BeynenProblem statement: There is evidence that the type of fiber influences the development of nephrocalcinosis in rats, but the effect of pectin was unknown. Approach: The effects of dietary pectin and cellulose on kidney calcification were studied in female rats. The diets used contained either 0.4-0.6% phosphorus and either cellulose (10%, w/w) or pectin. The purified diets used were balanced … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Methyl Cellulose Coating and Pre-Treatment on Oil Uptake, Moisture Retention and Physical Properties of Deep-Fat Fried Starchy Dough SystemJihad M. Quasem, Ayman Suliman Mazahreh, Khaled Abu-Alruz et al.Problem statement: The influence of edible methyl cellulose coating and blanching pre-treatment in reducing oil uptake and moisture loss during frying of starchy dough system was investigated. Approach: Potato dough cylinder of 60 mm length and 22 mm diameter was used as a model food system. Samples were coated with 0.5% methyl cellulose film-forming solution and uncoated samples were used … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,464 accessesView PDFCite
