Purification and Biochemical Characterization of Polyphenol Oxidases from Embryogenic and Nonembryogenic Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) CellsApplied Biochemistry and Biotechnology - Tập 158 - Trang 285-301 - 2008
Tanoh Hilaire Kouakou, Yatty Justin Kouadio, Patrice Kouamé, Pierre Waffo-Téguo, Alain Décendit, Jean-Michel Mérillon
Polyphenol oxidases (PPOs) were isolated from cell suspensions of two cultivars of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.), and their biochemical characteristics were studied. PPO from Coker 312, an embryogenic cultivar, showed a highest affinity to catechol 20 mM, and PPO from R405-2000, a nonembryogenic cultivar, showed a highest affinity to 4-methylcatechol 20 mM. The optimal pH for PPO activity was 7.0...... hiện toàn bộ
Enhancing Menaquinone-7 Production by Bacillus natto R127 Through the Nutritional Factors and SurfactantApplied Biochemistry and Biotechnology - Tập 182 - Trang 1630-1641 - 2017

Bacillus natto is commonly used in industrial production of menaquinone-7, an important vitamin which plays a crucial role for blood clotting and may contribute to prevention of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis. This study determined the optimal combination of key nutrients and established an effective use of surfactant in a coupling medium to enhance the yield of e...... hiện toàn bộ
Manipulation of microalgal lipid production using genetic engineeringApplied Biochemistry and Biotechnology - Tập 57 - Trang 223-231 - 1996
Terri G. Dunahay, Eric E. Jarvis, Sonja S. Dais, Paul G. Roessler
Genetic transformation of two species of diatoms has been accomplished by introducing chimeric plasmid vectors containing a bacterial antibiotic resistance gene driven by regulatory sequences from the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) gene from the diatomCyclotella cryptica. The recombinant DNA integrated into one or more random sites within the algal genome and the foreign protein was produced by t...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluation of Anticancer Activities of Novel Facile Synthesized Calix[n]arene Sulfonamide AnalogsApplied Biochemistry and Biotechnology - Tập 190 - Trang 1484-1497 - 2019
Bahar Yilmaz, Abdullah Tahir Bayrac, Mevlut Bayrakci
Here, new calixarene sulfonamide analogs were synthesized from the reaction of chlorosulfonated calix[n]arene (n: 4, 6, and 8) with N,N′-dimethylethylenediamine or ethylenediamine for the first time and an excellent calixarene sulfonamide analog showing potent and selective cytotoxic activity on some cancer cell lines were discovered. Cytotoxicity of the prepared calix[n]arene sulfonamide analogs ...... hiện toàn bộ
Comparative study of methods for extraction and purification of environmental DNA from soil and sludge samplesApplied Biochemistry and Biotechnology - Tập 134 - Trang 97-112 - 2006
Changhyun Roh, Francois Villatte, Byung-Gee Kim, Rolf D. Schmid
An important prerequisite for successful construction of a metagenome library is an efficient procedure for extracting DNA from environmental samples. We compared three indirect and four direct extraction methods, including a commercial kit, in terms of DNA yield, purity, and time requirement. A special focus was on methods that are appropriate for the extraction of environmental DNA (eDNA) from v...... hiện toàn bộ
Toxic effects of selected industrial solvents in batch and continuous anaerobic reactorsApplied Biochemistry and Biotechnology - Tập 28 - Trang 297-305 - 1991
L. J. Schwartz
Acetone and ethyl acetate were readily degraded in batch reactors containing anaerobic solids from an industrial reactor at concentrations to 1000 mg/L; isoamyl acetate was degraded at concentrations below 200 mg/L. Xylene was noninhibitory in batch cultures at concentrations of 50 mg/L or less. Batch reactors receiving 45 mg/L methylene chloride (MC) experienced a 60% reduction in gas production,...... hiện toàn bộ
Prediction of Skin Disease with Three Different Feature Selection Techniques Using Stacking Ensemble MethodApplied Biochemistry and Biotechnology - Tập 191 - Trang 637-656 - 2019
Anurag Kumar Verma, Saurabh Pal
Skin disease is the most common problem between people. Due to pollution and deployment of ozone layer, harmful UV rays of sun burn the skin and develop various types of skin diseases. Nowadays, machine learning and deep learning algorithms are generally used for diagnosis for various kinds of diseases. In this study, we have applied three feature extraction techniques univariate feature selection...... hiện toàn bộ
Stimulatory effect of red light on starch accumulation in a marine green alga,chlamydomonas sp. strain MGA161Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology - Tập 45 - Trang 225-232 - 1994
Kiyohito Yagi, Kenji Hamada, Kazumasa Hlrata, Kazuihisa Miyamoto, Yoshiharu Miura, Tohru Akano, Kiyomi Fukatu, Yoshiaki Ikuta, Hiroshi K. Nakamura
A marine green alga,Chlamydomonas sp. strain MGA161 was cultivated under illumination of red and white lights. The growth rate under red light illumination was almost the same as that in the basic conditions under white light illumination, but red light-grown cells accumulated almost twice as much starch as white light-grown cells. Although there was a slight decrease in carbonic anhydrase activit...... hiện toàn bộ
