Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of a Phytomineral Complex and an Enzyme Preparation on the Absorption of Nutrients and the Energy Balance of Calves' DietEvgeniia Erenko, Aleksandr Ovchinnikov, Marat Aubakirov et al.Cost-effective animal husbandry directly depends on the correct breeding of replacement young animals using diets corresponding to the feeding rate for all nutrition elements of the detailed system. Critical to these diets are biogenic elements, pivotal in enzymatic reactions and immune defense. However, specifics on enhancing nutrient absorption through dietary supplements remain underexplored, particularly in the context of calves' preweaning … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 12 Jun 2024 · 4,592 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlepH and Temperature Optimization of Several Bacterial Isolates from Mangrove Waters in the Mandeh Area to Produce Cellulase EnzymeFeskaharny Alamsjah, Dwiky Rahmadi Aswan, Anthoni AgustienEnzymes serve as vital biological catalysts, playing a crucial role in numerous industrial processes to accelerate specific biochemical reactions. In this study, we aimed to optimize cellulase enzyme production by investigating the influence of temperature and pH on four bacterial isolates: PUA-18, PUA-21, PUA-28, and PUA-38. The experiment was carried out in triplicates using a one-factor-at-a-time design, with pH and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 28 Mar 2024 · 6,476 accessesView PDF Cite
