Acetylcholinesterase from Puntius javanicus for the detection of carbamates and organophosphates
(SPB Pharma Society, 2015-04-01)
A new alternative local source of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) has been found to be sensitive towards several insecticides. AChE was purified from the brain tissue of Puntius javanicususing affinity chromatography (procainamide ...
Cholinesterase-based biosensor using Lates calcarifer (Asian Seabass) brain for detection of heavy metals
(SPB Pharma Society, 2015-04-01)
Heavy metals are sometimes needed for nutrient uptake but only in low concentrations and the nervous system is the most susceptible to be affected. Cholinesterase (ChE) inhibition has been used extensively as a biomarker ...
Optimization of milk-based medium for efficient cultivation of bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum g4 using face-centered central composite-response surface methodology
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014)
This study was undertaken to optimize skim milk and yeast extract concentration as a cultivation medium for optimal Bifidobacteria pseudocatenulatum G4 (G4) biomass and β-galactosidase production as well as lactose and ...
A proposed aerobic granules size development scheme for aerobic granulation process
(Elsevier, 2015-04-01)
Aerobic granulation is increasingly used in wastewater treatment due to its unique physical properties and microbial functionalities. Granule size defines the physical properties of granules based on biomass accumulation. ...
Isolation and characterization of a molybdenum-reducing and amide-degrading burkholderia SP. Strain neni-11 in soils from west sumatera, Indonesia
(Institute of Integrative Omics and Applied Biotechnology (IIOAB), 2016-01-01)
A molybdenum-reducing bacterium isolated from contaminated soil was able to utilize acrylamide as the electron donor source, and was able utilize acrylamide, acetamide and propionamide for growth. Reduction was optimal at ...
The use of lates calcarifer as a biomarker for heavy metals detection
(Springer Milan, 2016-01-21)
Fish are ubiquitous organisms that have many features that designate their potential as a biomarker of heavy metals pollution. Thus, an investigation was done to detect the effect of heavy metals on cholinesterase (ChE) ...
Optimisation of biodegradation conditions for cyanide removal by Serratia marcescens strain AQ07 using one-factor-at-a-time technique and response surface methodology
(Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, 2016-03-12)
Gold mining companies are known to use cyanide to extract gold from minerals. The indiscriminate use of cyanide presents a major environmental issue. Serratia marcescens strain AQ07 was found to have cyanide-degrading ...
Screening of Aloe vera medium with different carbon and nitrogen sources for lactobacillus acidophilus cultivation using fractional factorial design (FFD)
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013)
The aim of this research was to optimize the cultivation medium for economic production of a probiotic bacterium, Lactobacillus acidophilus using Aloe vera medium with different carbon (glucose, fructose and sucrose) and ...
Optimization of Aloe vera and alginate as encapsulating matrices for Lactobacillus acidophilus using FCCD-RSM approach
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013)
In order to maintain the viability of probiotic, the used of prebiotic is important. Aloe vera has been hypothesized to be a prebiotic potential for probiotic. Due to low viability of encapsulated cells, Aloe vera gel was ...
