Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Temperature and pH on the Stability and Colorimetric Measurement of Textile DyesA.S. Mahmoud, A.E. Ghaly, S.L. BrooksMost of the textile dye removal techniques operate within temperature and pH ranges of 20-60°C and 2-12, respectively. Both the pH and temperature have been reported to have significant effects on the efficiencies of the dye removal techniques. In this study, the effects of pH and temperature on the stability and color measurement (absorbance) of the textile dye remazol brilliant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 10,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Antioxidant Effects of Essential Oil Blends and Individual Oils Using the DPPH Radical-Scavenging AssaySunghun Jang, Jae Kyung KimOxidative stress is recognized as a major contributor to conditions such as cancer, aging, and inflammation. Consequently, there is a growing interest in the use of natural antioxidants, particularly essential oils, owing to their safety benefits and potent antioxidant properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant effects of four essential oil blends (Refresh, Zest, Revitalizing, and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 5 Jan 2026 · 2,648 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Geobacillus thermodenitrificans Lipase Activity and Binding Affinity by Acetone Treatment: Kinetic and in silico InvestigationsAmmar Khazaal Kadhim Almansoori, Alyaa Abdulhussein Alsaedi et al.Lipase Geobacillus thermodenitrificans (LipGt) is a thermostable enzyme that has an optimal activity temperature of 65°C. It can tolerate various organic solvents and has an improved activity, especially in the presence of acetone. In this study, in-vitro and in-silico studies were carried out to investigate the effect of acetone in enhancing the kinetic and binding affinity of LipGt. The LipGt … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2024 · 4,817 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploration and Characterization of Thermophilic Bacteria from the Kerinci-Jambi Geothermal Source for Alcohol ProductionAnthoni Agustien, Weni Cahyati, Yetria RildaAlcohol produced by thermophilic bacteria is renewable and a safe fuel because it is mainly based on microbial fermentation. This research needs to be done to find out the potential alcohol production of thermophilic bacteria because have many advantages such as degrading a much wider range of carbohydrates, the possibility of direct alcohol recovery from the fermentation broth, tolerance to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 10 Feb 2024 · 5,199 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Extraction of Cannabinoids and Flavonoids Substances from Influence Cannabis sp. and their Biological Activities before and after DecarboxylationOlga Kronusová, Michala Piklová, Kristýna Šírová et al.Inflorescence of eight different varieties of Cannabis sp. (3 hemp varieties and 5 medical cannabis varieties) were subjected to extraction with n-hexane or ethanol as representatives of non-polar and polar solvents. Crude extracts were either used directly or after decarboxylation of cannabis acids for measurement of selected biological activities-cytotoxicity against carcinogenic line B16 (musculus skin melanoma cells), cytotoxicity against Human … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 26 May 2022 · 6,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal Phenolic Composition and Antioxidant Activity of Silver Nanoparticles using Aqueous Extract of Chilca Leaves (Baccharis latifolia)Fernanda Pilaquinga, Camila Granja, Eliza Jara et al.The importance of studying polyphenols as natural antioxidants has encouraged the search for new methods of rapid, simple analysis. The synthesis of silver Nanoparticles (Ag NPs) using plant extracts has been presented as an alternative to determine the presence of polyphenolic compounds. In this study, aqueous extract of chilca (Baccharis latifolia), an endemic plant species from South America known for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 16 Apr 2021 · 8,341 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractELISA-Based Development of Functional Antibodies for the Efficient Detection of Mycotoxigenic Fusarium (F. oxysporum and F. circinatum) and Diplodia (D. pinea) SpeciesPhumzile Mkhize, Phetole MangenaFusarium contains the most toxigenic and important fungal pathogens, producing a wide range of mycotoxins that include the more toxic secondary metabolites called fumonisins. This study analyzed the presence of common exo- and mycelium-soluble antigens, purified proteins using reducing SDS-PAGE and the expression of antibodies against different fungal pathogens. The results showed the presence of common antigens between pathogens and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 18 Nov 2020 · 6,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtection of Human Albumin against UV-C Irradiation by Natural AntioxidantsAntonio Zuorro, Roberto LavecchiaThe use of UV-C light as a means to inactivate pathogens in biological media containing blood components or plasma derivatives has recently been rediscovered. Although highly effective, these treatments may have deleterious effects on plasma proteins such as albumin, fibrinogen and immunoglobulins. Here we investigate the use of three natural antioxidants, gallic acid, nicotinic acid and ascorbic acid, as potential … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2018 · 9,922 accessesView PDFCite
