Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Different Functional Microbial Agents on the Biological Characteristics and Rhizosphere Enzyme Activity of Hydroponic CucumberCe Wang, Ouya Zhao, Shiyou Sun et al.This study aims to comprehensively explore the effect of functional microbial agents on healthy soil cultivation and attempt to increase cucumber yield. Three different microbial agents were used for cucumber seedlings by virtue of the hydroponic cultivation method in order to study their effects on enzyme activity and seedling growth and reveal the relationship between rhizosphere enzyme activity and carbon, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2025 · 5,510 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Soil Storage at Freezing Temperatures on Soil Enzymatic ActivitiesAinsley Lougheed, Kabwe NkongoloSoil enzyme activities are good indicators of soil health. It has been hypothesized that soil storage before analysis might affect microbial function. The objective of the present study was to determine if soil storage at -20 and -80°C affects soil enzymatic activities. Soil samples were collected and stored for four weeks at -20 and -80°C. Activities of nine enzymes were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2024 · 4,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCyclodextrin Glucanotransferase Activity of Microbial Strains Isolated from Yam-Cultivation Soils in Northwestern BeninCyrille Alode Vodounon, Ténor Dias-Mendel Allode et al.β-Cyclodextrin, an industrially important oligosaccharide, is produced by microbial enzymes such as cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase). This study investigated ways to optimize the enzymatic activity of CGTase from Bacillus cereus, Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus brevis, and Bacillus subtilis strains isolated from soils in north-western Benin. Cyclization activity of CGTase and the influence of pH, temperature, and metal ions were assessed using conventional … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2026 · 652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Industrially Promising Keratinase Isolated from Aspergillus aureolatus Changes its Substrate Specificity after pH-Mediated AutolysisArina Mokhova, Anna ShestakovaMicrobial proteolytic enzymes are green catalysts with many potential applications. Keratinolytic enzymes (or keratinases) are crucial for efficient keratin degradation, making them essential in waste management, biomedicine, cosmetics, and various industrial applications. This study describes the production and characterization of a protease with keratinolytic activity from Aspergillus aureolatus. The protease was isolated from the culture fluid on the 5th day … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2025 · 5,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Amylase Activity by Modulating Abiotic Factors and Enzyme Stability in the Thermophilic Bacterial IsolatesAnthoni Agustien, Denny Bendrianis, Feskaharny Alamsyah et al.Amylase is one of the enzymes that is widely used in bioprocess technology, amylase from different microbial sources also varies in form, so it is suitable for its specific application. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum temperature, pH, agitation, and stability of the amylase enzyme from two thermophilic bacterial isolates, TUA-07 and TUA-09. This study used … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 7 Feb 2024 · 5,493 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Ruminal Cumulative Gas and Methane Production, Enzyme Activity, Fermentation Profile and Nutrient Digestibility on Feed Supplemented with Organic SeleniumMoh. Sofi’ul Anam, Andriyani Astuti, Budi Prasetyo Widyobroto et al.Methane (CH4) emissions are indeed a global environmental concern and ruminants are a significant source of these emissions; however, there is limited understanding regarding the contribution of organic Selenium (Se) in mitigating CH4 emissions. Hence, this study investigated the impact of supplementing organic Se from Selenomethionine (Se-Met) on the in vitro ruminal cumulative gas and CH4 production, fermentation profile, enzyme … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 26 Oct 2023 · 5,215 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Enzymatic Role of Lipid Metabolism in Yarrowia lipolytica Grown on GlycerolRuixue Wang, Feifei Xin, Yufei Chang et al.More attention has been paid to the production of commercial fatty acids by microbial fermentation. The basic biochemistry of lipid accumulation in oleaginous microorganisms under nitrogen limitation has been extensively studied. As an oleaginous microorganism, Yarrowia lipolytica can produce fatty acid-derived biofuels and biochemicals. However, the response of the enzymes in Y. lipolytica to glycerol remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 17 Apr 2023 · 6,309 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Decreasing Temperature on Soil Microbial Activity in a Boreal Shield EcozoneAlistar Moy, Kabwe NkongoloAlthough the focus on warming is imperative to address climate change, addressing the effects of cooling is arguably just as relevant in characterizing the enzyme response to temperature fluctuations. In this study, the response of enzyme activity to diminishing temperatures in the field was evaluated. The targeted sites were located in the City of Greater Sudbury in Northern Ontario, Canada. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 17 Apr 2022 · 6,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicroflora Contribution to Cellulase and Digestion Enzyme in Mud Crab Digestive TractSiti Aslamyah, Yushinta Fujaya, Nita RukminasariMicroflora in the digestive tract of aquatic animals is thought to be not only the microbes that contribute to the production of cellulase enzymes but also contribute to other digestive enzymes, such as protease, amylase and lipase. This study aims to examine the microflora contribution to the mud crab’s digestive tract. Scylla sp. were maintained in the crab box individually … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2021 · 6,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Banana, Pineapple and Watermelon Wastes-Substrate: As Consortiums to Remediating Cyanide Polluted SoilFlorence Obiageli Nduka, Samuel Chibuike Ubani, Victor Eshu Okpashi et al.The act of processing cassava for varied food products has come with unguided and wide-spread contamination of cyanide in the environment. The need for effective reduction in cost to enable remediation of cyanide-contaminated sites from cassava mill factories is the purpose of this investigation. This involves bio-stimulation of organic wastes with indigenous microorganisms to degrade cyanide.
