Probiotics are live microorganisms recognized as natural candidates to substitute antibiotic substances, usually used treat bacterial infections responsible for numerous human and animal diseases. Antibiotics mostly prescribed treating caused by bacteria. However, their excessive inappropriate use has resulted in the increase of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) host microbiota imbalance or dysbiosis phenomena. Even though antibiotics most well-known lifesaving AMR within community become a...
Abstract Nanotechnology is a rising technology dealing with nanoparticle‐based (1–100 nm) organic and inorganic materials. Such has vital role in various industrial sectors, including pharmaceuticals, nuclear energy, fuel electronics, bioengineering, while having potential applications to human, animal, plant, environmental health. Even though nanomaterial can cover multi‐areas of biological natural fields, limited information are available the aquaculture sector. Nowadays, sector most...
Modeling analysis was used to understand the molecular mechanisms of biological activities surfactin, in particular, its hemolytic activity. This study highlights importance fatty acid chain hydrophobicity surfactin on activities, C15 homologue being most active. is related self-association capacity. The detergent effect predominant mechanism involved A two-step suggested, depending concentration. Other (cationic channel, mobile carrier) can also be particular conditions.
Abstract Foaming properties of surfactin were investigated and compared to those sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) bovine serum albumin (BSA). Foams formed by a bubbling technique. Evolution the foam volume liquid in was monitored with optical conductimetric methods characterize formation stability. Excellent foaming shown its higher ability form stabilize at concentration as low 0.05 mg/mL, comparison SDS BSA. Surfactin produced intermediate maximum density stabilized foam, well
The increasing global human population is projected to reach 9.7 billion people by 2050. This growth currently linked the trends of world-wide urbanization, megacities and shifting dietary patterns. While humankind faces daunting challenge feeding providing healthy lives for its teeming populations, urban agriculture holds promise improving quality life in cities. Fortunately, policymakers planners are accepting need support peri-urban farmers increase resilience food systems while...
To study the effect of lipid and peptide structural attributes Bacillus subtilis lipopeptides on their foaming properties, formation, stability, appearance foams prepared with surfactins (C13−C15) iturins A (C14−C17) were characterized. The density stability lipopeptide depend both alkyl chain hydrophobic character molecular intrinsic properties. lipidic length 14 carbon atoms provides best properties in terms foam liquid foams. Increases above 15 result a drastic decrease iturin density....
The mechanical properties of monolayers from two Acacia gums [Acacia senegal (L.) Willd. and seyal Del.] their three fractions isolated by hydrophobic interaction chromatography were studied with a Langmuir film balance to obtain more complete understanding action mode. analysis compression isotherms revealed that A. globally exhibit better interfacial than ones. behavior the whole appeared be strongly influenced arabinogalactan−protein complex. Keywords: Gum arabic; monolayers; balance; senegal;
Using a molecular modeling method, different conformations of surfactin at hydrophobic/hydrophilic interface are established. Two the peptide ring (S1 and S2) provided by NMR experiments built with three aliphatic chains in folded or extended configurations were studied. For structures including S2 conformation, theoretical interfacial area corresponds to experimental limiting A0 value obtained Langmuir film balance. The is positioned plane two acidic close each other protruding aqueous...
Abstract A homologous series of surfactins containing β‐hydroxy fatty acids having 13, 14, or 15 carbon atoms were isolated from the supernatant Bacillus subtilis strain S499 cultures. Their surface‐active properties at air‐water interface then evaluated. Dynamic surface tension data analyzed by relaxation function γ t =γ m +(γ o −γ )/[1+(t/t * ) n ]. Based on various parameters , n, v max calculated this equation, dynamic surfactin found to depend both bulk concentration and hydrophobic...
