Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTransesterification of Palm Oil for the Production of BiodieselKhalizani Khalid, Khalisanni KhalidProblem statement: Palm oil is known as an important source of edible oil with significant values of renewable energy. Depletion of petroleum had captured much attention on producing biodiesel from the palm oil. Approach: The most concerning methods for the production of biodiesel were discussed, namely transesterification (alkali and acid), enzymetic approach and supercritical alcohol. Results: The results showed the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 8,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBioactive Compounds Screening from Zingiberaceae Family as Influenza A/Swine Flu Virus Neuraminidase Inhibitor through Docking ApproachUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Fadilah, Arli Aditya ParikesitProblem statement: Influenza A/H1N1 is a disease caused by infection of influenza a virus subtype H1N1. It is a major health problem in tropical and subtropical countries. This virus constantly mutates and consequently will be developed into new drug-resistant strains. Approach: In this research, we have conducted docking study to screen bioactive compounds from Zingiberaceae family, which has a role … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of NaCl on the Stability of Ab3 Lipase from Sphingobacterium sp. that Co-Expressed with LEA K Using In silico ApproachIbrahim Muhammad et al.This study explores how sodium chloride (NaCl) influences the binding affinity and stability of the Ab3 lipase-LEA K complex when interacting with olive oil, using molecular docking techniques. The docking simulations, conducted with AutoDock Vina, reveal that the presence of NaCl significantly enhances the binding affinity of the enzyme-substrate complex, increasing it from-6.55 kcal/mol in the absence of salt to-7.81 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2025 · 5,599 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Contribution of Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) K Peptide in Enhancing the Expression of Lipase from Sphingobacterium sp.: In vitro and in Silico StudiesIbrahim Muhammad et al.Sphingobacterium sp. AB3 lipase is a psychrophilic enzyme with optimal lipolytic activity at pH 7 and 15°C. The cold-adapted properties of the lipase render it suitable for various low-temperature industrial applications such as biodiesel production, detergent formulation, and non-thermal food processing. Recent studies have shown that co-expression of LEA K peptide with AB3 lipase resulted in enhanced protein expression in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 21 Nov 2024 · 4,569 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLupane-Type Triterpenoids BiotransformationZhumadilov Sayat Sagatovich, Bakibaev Abdigali Abdimanapovich, Zhadan Konstantin Vasilevich et al.A lot of scientific material has been accumulated in recent years about the biotransformation processes of lupine-type triterpenoids. The novelty of this review is the summary of these works, the analysis and identification of the most suitable biocatalysts for future researchers, and the presentation of development trends for new derivatives. The known biotransformation examples of the most common lupine-type triterpenoid … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 1 · 12 Dec 2023 · 4,948 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Crude Polyphenol Oxidase Activity in Buckwheat SproutsYuedong Song, Yangfang Zhang, Yilin Wang et al.Buckwheat sprouts can not only effectively reduce the trypsin inhibitor in buckwheat grain, but also improve the content of bioactive ingredients such as flavonoids and other effective components. However, Polyphenol Oxidase (PPO) in buckwheat sprouts causes browning of food, which limits the application of buckwheat sprouts in food. In addressing this problem, studying the characteristics of PPO in buckwheat sprouts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2021 · 6,486 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Cobalt, Iron and Ruthenium Catalysts for the Production of Synthetic DieselDayna M. Ortiz Rodríguez, María del C. Cotto-Maldonado, José Duconge Hernández et al.Fossil fuels are currently the world's leading source of energy. Environmental legislations, the high price of fossil fuels, the concern about the supply of these fuels and technological development, makes it necessary to search for alternative sources of energy. The production of clean liquid fuels, such as synthetic diesel from synthesis gas, by Fischer-Tropsch (FT) method, is considered a very … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2020 · 7,248 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFenton Process for the Degradation of Methylene Blue using Different Nanostructured CatalystsMaría del C Cotto-Maldonado, José Duconge, Carmen Morant, Francisco MárquezIn many places of the world, water is a scarcity resource. The possibility of reusing water increases the relevance of developing different water treatment methods. The goal of this research was to determine if the photo-Fenton processes are efficient for the degradation of organic compounds, as a possible alternative for wastewater treatment. In order to carry out this study, different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 19 Jul 2017 · 8,295 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,461 accessesView PDFCite
