Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAlkali Pretreatment and Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cattails from Constructed WetlandsBo Zhang, Abolghasem Shahbazi, Lijun Wang et al.Problem statement: To date, production of liquid fuel, particularly ethanol, has only been economically feasible from food crops that are high in sugar and starch. However, the use of arable land for fuel rather than for food production and the use of a food source for fuel rather than as food have created issues in prices and availability of traditional … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,105 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRemoval of Mercury from chlor-alkali Industry Wastewater using Acetobacter xylinum CelluloseA. Rezaee, J. Derayat, S. B. Mortazavi et al.In this study, the removal of mercury ions by cellulose of Acetobacter xylinum was investigated in the synthetic and chlor-alkali wastewater. Biofilms of Acetobacter xylinum were grown in laboratory column bioreactors. The biofilms were continuously treated with sterile synthetic model wastewater or nonsterile, neutralized chloralkali wastewater.The extent of adsorption was studied as function of pH, adsorbent dose and contact time. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 8,283 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStructural and Substrate Interaction Properties of Alkaline Phosphatase from Paenibacillus sp. PSB04: In-Silico AnalysisHerman Umbau Lindang, Cahyo BudimanA Phosphate-Solubilising Bacterium (PSB) of Paenibacillus sp. PSB04 was previously isolated from the Sabah tropical rainforest in Malaysia. Interestingly, the genome sequence of the PSB04 strain harbored an Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) (EC 3.1.3.1) gene and was hypothesized to have unique structural characteristics. Therefore, this study aims to determine the AP three-Dimensional (3D) model and catalytic mechanism from Paenibacillus sp. PSB04 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 16 Jul 2022 · 5,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHide Dehairing and Laundry Detergent Compatibility Testing of Thermostable and Solvents Tolerant Alkaline Protease from Hot Spring Isolate Bacillus cohniiU3Pravin R. Dudhgara, Bhavsar Sunil, Ghelani AnjanaIn the present study, alkaline protease producing thermophilic Bacillus cohniiU3 strain was isolation from Unnai hot spring, India. The maximum production of protease (344 U/mL) was reported after 72 h of inoculation at 50°C in shake flask culture using the gelatin casein medium. The protease was found to remain active up to 96 h and production was growth dependent. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2015 · 7,335 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOPTIMIZATION OF ALKALINE PROTEASE PRODUCTION BY STREPTOMYCES AMBOFACIENS IN FREE AND IMMOBILIZED FORMNayera A.M. Abdelwahed, Enas N. Danial, Noura El-Ahmady El-Naggar, Asem A. MohamedOptimization of alkaline protease production by Streptomyces ambofaciens NRRL 2420 in free and immobilized form was investigated using submerged fermentation technique. The optimum conditions for maximum alkaline protease production 342 unit mL-1 were 30°C at pH 8.5 and incubation time 96 h in free cell cultures using starch 20 g L-1 as carbon source and yeast extract 5 g L-1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 28 Dec 2013 · 8,125 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEcofriendly and Simplified Synthetic Route for Polysulfone-based Solid-State Alkaline Electrolyte MembraneAphiruk Chaisena, Samroeng Krachodnok, Chutharat Khonkeng, Nittaya PantamasProblem statement: Recently the alkaline system for fuel cell enhance their presence because of possibility of no-precious-metal catalyst and low over potential at cathode reaction. The anion exchange membrane for alkaline membrane fuel cell should be a key technology in order to achieve the practical performance as fuel cells. Alkaline anion exchange membranes of high ionic conductivities are made from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 15 Aug 2012 · 8,008 accessesView PDFCite
