Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAn Overview of the Antimicrobial Activity of Some Microbial EnzymesAkram N. Salah, Hayam Atallah AlwabsiEnzymes are substances produced by living organisms that are used to catalyze some biological and biochemical reactions as they either catalyze some types of polysaccharides and proteins or lyse complex materials such as polymers and lipids. Microbial enzymes are defined as the enzymes that can be extracted and purified from bacterial strains such as Bacillus spp., Pseudomonas spp., Streptomyces, or … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 11 Jun 2024 · 6,081 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacterization and Wash Performance Analysis of Microbial Extracellular Enzymes from East Calcutta Wetland in IndiaRamesh Malathu, Sanhita Chowdhury, Madhusmita Mishra et al.Extracellular protease from a novel bacterial isolate showing maximum similarity of 98.22% with Microbacterium luteolum was obtained from East Calcutta Wetland, India. It showed compatibility with commercial detergents. The enzyme retains more than 60% of its activity between 6.0 to 10.5 pH. The maximum activity is at pH 7.5 with 71% activity at pH 10.0 and 10.5. The protease retained … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,727 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCoenzyme Q10 and its Effective SourcesHamideh Vaghari, Roholah Vaghari, Hoda Jafarizadeh-Malmiri, Aydin BerenjianCoenzyme Q10 (2,3-dimethoxy, 5-methyl, 6-decaprenyl benzoquinone, CoQ10) is naturally present in many organisms. It has key roles in several biochemical pathways. CoQ10, as an electron and proton carrier for energy coupling leads to Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) formation. Furthermore, in medicine, the pharmacological use of CoQ10 has attracted more attention due to its benefits in treating cardiovascular and degenerative neurologic diseases. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2016 · 9,278 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCellulolytic Enzymes Production by Solid State Culture Using Pecan Nut Shell as Substrate and SupportMiguel A. Medina-Morales, José L. Martínez-Hernández, Heliodoro de la Garza, Cristóbal Noé AguilarProblem Statement: Great interest in the use of lignocellulosic biomass is increasing in order to diminish the accumulation of residues, such as pecan nut shells. One of the alternatives is the fungal degradation of these residues. Approach: The capacity of Trichoderma (coded as T1, T2 and T3) strains to produce cellulase and xylonite was evaluated. Results: Pecan nut shell fibers … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 8,023 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 abstractExpression and Induction Optimization of Mucor Circinelloides Lipase in Escherichia ColiYueping Yang, Yao Zhang et al.Microbial lipases serve as versatile biocatalysts for modifying lipid substrates, enabling diverse biotechnological applications spanning food technology, renewable energy production, and pharmaceutical sectors. Genomic analysis of Mucor circinelloides WJ11 revealed multiple lipase-encoding genes, with WJ_23 successfully cloned and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. Since the lipase expression was mainly concentrated in the cell pellets, appropriate induction strategies had been investigated … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2025 · 5,982 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 abstractEffects 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
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Degradation of Paracetamol in Pharmaceutical Wastewater: A ReviewYahya Seun Yisau, Naeif Hamoud Al-Makishah, Mohamed Abou El-Fetouh BarakatParacetamol (4′-hydroxyacetanilide or N-acetyl-p-aminophenol or Acetaminophen) is an analgesic and antipyretic over-the-counter commonly used drug. Paracetamol has been detected in, surface waters, wastewater, and drinking water globally because of its significant utilization and unregulated release into the surroundings which have been a great concern and require an urgent approach. Microbial degradation of paracetamol is considered a desirable choice because of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 3 Aug 2024 · 6,917 accessesView PDFCite
