Papain is a globular cysteine-protease family consisting of single polypeptide chain with three disulfide bridges and sulfhydryl group necessary for proteolytic activity. Its application extensive to the fields medicine food. The aim this study extract, purify characterize papain enzymes from leaves Carica papaya. Crude extracts containing were extracted papaya in Mountain Top University, Nigeria, purified 3-step purification using 70% NH4(SO4)2, DEAE-Cellulose column chromatography Sephadex...
Affiliative social connections facilitate well-being and survival in numerous species. Engaging interactions requires positive or negative motivational drive, elicited through coordinated activity across neural circuits. However, the identity, interconnectivity, functional encoding of information within these circuits remains poorly understood. Here, we focus on downstream projections dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) dopamine neurons (DRN DAT ), which previously implicated motivation alongside an...
The hippocampus plays a crucial role in learning and memory is highly sensitive to cannabinoid exposure. Cannabis sativa, known for its psychoactive therapeutic properties, contains cannabinoids that interact with the endocannabinoid system, influencing cognitive functions, mood, neuroplasticity. While some studies suggest neuroprotective benefits, others indicate potential hippocampal alterations leading deficits, particularly spatial short-term memory. However, specific effects of cannabis...
Abstract Bioethanol production from monomeric sugar is performed by several yeasts. But there are limitations associated with yeast strains such as their low tolerance to ethanol, toxic inhibitors, and high concentration. Genetic metabolic engineering of potential can overcome the above limitations. The present article summarized current genetic approaches for development strain efficient ethanol production. review systematically examined bioethanol generations based on substrate...
generated during metabolic processes [4].Cancer cells have different strategies in escaping destruction, and these are captured its hallmarks [5].The ability to evade immune suppression is one of cancer's hallmarks.Tumor
The incorporation of probiotics into fruit juices for the production functional and nutraceutical food is necessity in order to control lifestyle-related diseases increase availability foods a large population lactose intolerant patients vegetarians. Hence, microbial viability, antagonistic activity, physicochemical, proximate minerals organoleptic characterization stored probioticated mango juice using Pediococcus pentosaceus acidilactici as starter unprobioticated samples were...
The contamination of food due to the occurrence mycotoxigenic fungi is a public health concern. Therefore, and aflatoxin smoked-dried juvenile fish (SDJF) (Clarias gariepinus) were investigated. samples purchased from three major markets in Ibadan. total fungal count ranged 1.0 x 103 12.0 CFU/g. Thirty-two isolated, including Penicillium sp., Rhizopus Alternaria Aspergillus flavus, niger, ochraceus. A. niger had highest frequency (38%), while ochraceus (3%) lowest. All contaminated with...
The toxic nature of acyl acceptors to biocatalyst is a major concern for an efficient transesterification process. In this study, bio-esterification Soybean Cooking Oil Waste (SCOW) biodiesel production using free and glyoxyl-agarose immobilized lipases from Aspergillus oryzae the effects acceptor, molar ratio methanol SCOW, fed-batch addition on were investigated. Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAMEs) produced characterized FTIR, 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR GC-MS. physico-chemical characterizations FAMEs...
Pharmaceuticals are medicinal products used in the prevention, treatment, and diagnosis of diseases. As such, presence microorganisms’ especially fungal toxins can reduce or eliminate product's therapeutic activity constitute a potential danger to patient health. This study attempts determine loads liquid preparation as medication Lagos State its environs identify isolates. 252 different types oral drugs (200syrups 52 suspensions) which included paracetamol syrup, cough syrup antibiotics...
The study investigated the anti-listeria activity of Bacillus subtilis (BsaM), licheniformis (BlbM) and megaterium (BmcM) against seven Listeria species. Metabolites from spp. were used for silver nanoparticles (BsaSNPs, BlbSNPs, BmcSNPs) biosynthesis. Silver Nanoparticles (SNPs) characterization was done using visual observation, UV-Visible Spectrophotometric, FTIR, SEM, EDXRF. synergistic potential biosynthesized SNPs functionalized Multidrug resistance (MDR) strains evaluated. BsaM, BlbM,...
