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. ...
Growth kinetics of a diesel-degrading bacterial strain from petroleum-contaminated soil
(Triveni Enterprises, 2014-03)
A diesel-degrading bacterium was isolated from a diesel-contaminated site in Selangor, Malaysia. The isolate was tentatively identified as Acinetobacter sp. strain DRY12 based on partial 16S rDNA molecular phylogeny and ...
Characterization of a diesel-degrading strain isolated from a hydrocarbon-contaminated site
(Triveni Enterprises, 2009-01)
A diesel-degrading bacterium has been isolated from a diesel-polluted site. The isolate was tentatively identified as Staphylococcus aureus strain DRY11 based on partial 16S rDNA molecular phylogeny and Biolog® GP microplate ...
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) ...
Removal of Ni(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions using cation-exchange resin in fixed-bed column
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2015-10-13)
Breakthrough curves for the removal of Ni(II), Zn(II), and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions using cation exchange resin (Dowex 50W) were determined at dynamic conditions in a fixed-bed column under ambient temperature. The ...
Characteristics of developed granules containing phototrophic aerobic bacteria for minimizing carbon dioxide emission
(Elsevier Limited, 2015-08-01)
Photosynthetic process compromises the most effective and natural way for carbon recycling, in which photosynthetic bacteria utilized carbon dioxide (CO2) during the wastewater treatment processes. The aim of this study ...
