Objective: Difference of pH that exists between the skin surface and blood circulation can be exploited for transdermal delivery drug molecules by loading into pH-sensitive polymer. Eudragit S100 (ES100), a polymer having dissolution profile above 7.4, is used in oral, ocular, vaginal topical molecules. However, potential this has not been explored delivery. The aim research work was to exploit ES100 as nanocarrier model drug, is, Piroxicam.Methods: Simple nanoprecipitation technique...
A polyethylene terephthalate (PET)-degrading bacterium identified as Stenotrophomonas maltophilia PRS8 was isolated from the soil of a landfill. The degradation PET bottle flakes and prepared powder were assessed using live cells, an extracellular medium, or purified cutinase-like enzyme. These treated polymers analyzed Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) scanning electron microscopy (SEM). depolymerization products, HPLC LC-MS, terephthalic acid (TPA), mono(2-hydroxyethyl)-TPA...
In the present scenario of variable natural environment and sky-high population, sustainable boost in agricultural productivity is utmost priority.Induce mutagenesis generates noble genetic combination without affecting overall genomic makeup crop, thus, providing essential variation for any crop improvement programme.The study has been carried out to investigate comparative mutagenicity gamma rays HZ on chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotype (avrodhi) at M 2 generation developed from seeds...
Mutations were induced in two mungbean varieties, K-851 and PS-16 using EMS gamma rays as mutagens. Selection studies conducted to improve the yield generate genetic variability different quantitative traits viz., fertile branches per plant, pods plant seed plant. Mean values increase significantly over controls parameters recorded higher for mutants isolated M5 generation. High of heritability advance indicate that further improvement could be made next generations. Key words: ...
Synergistic combinations of various antimicrobial agents are considered ideal strategies in combating clinical and multidrug resistant (MDR) infections. In this study, antibacterial potential Jatropha curcas crude seed extracts, oil, commercially available antibiotics, their were investigated for synergistic effect against clinical, MDR ATCC bacterial strains by agar well diffusion assay. Methanolic extracts remained more active Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC), with zone inhibition (ZOI) 21 mm,...
Lignin is a major by-product of pulp and paper industries, resistant to depolymerization due its heterogeneous structure. Degradation lignin can be achieved by the use potential lignin-degrading bacteria. The current study was designed evaluate degradation efficiency newly isolated Bacillus altitudinis SL7 from mill effluent. B. determined color reduction, content, ligninolytic activity medium supplemented with alkali (3 g/L). reduced content 26 44%, respectively, on 5th day incubation, as...
Abstract Ciprofloxacin (CIP), an emerging micro-pollutant antibiotic, poses environmental threat due to its resistance high-temperature decomposition, aiding antibiotic spread. Conventional degradation generates toxic byproducts, while biodegradation offers efficient and eco-friendly means eliminate CIP. In this study, ciprofloxacin-degrading strains were isolated from pharmaceutical wastewater using enrichment technique. Isolated R2 R4 identified as Stutzerimonas stutzeri Exiguobacterium...
The antioxidant quercetin was extracted from yellow onion waste and converted to its aglycone form by a combination of subcritical water extraction enzymatic hydrolysis. hydrolytic step catalysed double residue (N221S, P342L) mutant the thermostable β-glucosidase (TnBgl1A), isolated thermophile Thermotoga neapolitana cloned produced in E. coli. activity wt TnBgl1A shown be dependent on position glucosylation backbone, favouring hydrolysis quercetin-4′-glucoside over quercetin-3-glucoside....
Abstract Food demand is directly associated with the human population. Due to various plant diseases, there has been a reduction in crop yield. There an extreme necessity low such losses yield meet rising for food. Novel and eco-friendly control approaches should be developed combating bacterial diseases of crops. Recent strategies that involve usage antibiotics or chemicals are no more effective because resistance by species. Furthermore, agents proven not environmentally friendly. To...
Abstract Background The thermostable β-glucosidase ( Tn Bgl1A) from Thermotoga neapolitana is a promising biocatalyst for hydrolysis of glucosylated flavonoids and can be coupled to extraction methods using pressurized hot water. Hydrolysis has however been shown dependent on the position glucosylation flavonoid, e.g. quercetin-3-glucoside (Q3) was hydrolysed slowly. A set mutants Bgl1A were thus created analyse influence kinetic parameters model substrate para...
