Open burning of agricultural residues causes numerous complications including particulate matter pollution in the air, soil degradation, global warming and many more. Since they possess bio-conversion potential, agro-industrial sugarcane bagasse (SCB), rice straw (RS), corncob (CC) sweet sorghum (SSB) were chosen for study. Yeast strains, Candida tropicalis, C. shehatae, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Kluyveromyces marxianus var. compared their production potential bioethanol phenylacetylcarbinol...
Cellulosic bioethanol production generally has a higher operating cost due to relatively expensive pretreatment strategies and low efficiency of enzymatic hydrolysis. The other high-value chemicals such as xylitol phenylacetylcarbinol (PAC) is, thus, necessary offset the promote economic viability. optimal conditions diluted sulfuric acid under boiling water at 95°C subsequent hydrolysis steps for sugarcane bagasse (SCB), rice straw (RS), corn cob (CC) were optimized using response surface...
Biotransformation of a pharmaceutical precursor, phenylacetylcarbinol (PAC), could be achieved by frozen-thawed Candida tropicalis whole cells (FT-WHC). The treatment FT-WHC, which contained intracellular pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) enzyme, using high-power ultrasonication with varying amplitudes were compared glass bead attrition (GBA) as well control for the release PDC. Ultrasonication at 20% amplitude (Ult20) proved to most effective, resulting in highest volumetric and specific PDC...
Dairy products play a crucial role in ensuring healthy lives and promoting the well-being of people. However, they normally contain high levels saturated fat cholesterol which are related to risk noncommunicable diseases other health issues. Our review focuses on effectiveness added natural ingredients probi-otics dairy for replacing or lowering fat. This narrative was concep-tualized describe: (i) substitution, (ii) probiotics both Promising techniques replacement by plant oils,...
A co-substrate model of Candida tropicalis TISTR 5306 cultivated in 10 - 100 g/L xylose and 1 glucose at the ratio 10:1 was developed based part on modified Monod equation. The kinetic parameters include substrate limitation as well product inhibitions with inclusion threshold values. general good fitting average RSS
Polyphenols act by scavenging reactive oxygen species during oxidative stress and hence are useful in the treatment of metabolic disorders including diabetes. This study describes effect polyphenol rich mulberry jamun wines fed to streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. To male adult Wistar rats, divided into groups (n = 10 per group) intraperitoneal injection was administered with streptozotocin at 38 mg kg body weight for inducing After confirmation diabetes, rats were each day 5.7...
An epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) blend with chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) was prepared using a two-roll mill at 130 °C. CHG added concentrations of 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, and 10% (w/w) as an antimicrobial additive. The ENR showed the best tensile strength, elastic recovery, Shore A hardness. ENR/CHG exhibited smooth fracture surface. appearance new peak in Fourier transform infrared spectrum confirmed that amino groups reacted epoxy ENR. inhibition zone against Staphylococcus aureus. proposed...
ABSTRACT Reactive oxygen metabolites, which are constant products of normal aerobic cell metabolism, play a key role in worsening the pathophysiological complications diabetes. The present investigation was aimed at understanding effect butyric acid supplementation along with wheatbran and guar gum on serum renal antioxidant enzyme activities lipid peroxidation streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Activities superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase were evaluated kidney...
Converting agricultural biomass wastes into bio-chemicals can significantly decrease greenhouse gas emissions and foster global initiatives towards mitigating climate change. This study examined the co-production of xylitol ethanol from xylose glucose-rich hydrolysates corn cob (CC), sugarcane bagasse (SCB), rice straw (RS) without prior detoxification, using C. magnoliae (C. mag), tropicalis trop), guilliermondii guil). A score ranking system based on weighted yields productivity assessed...
Phenylacetylcarbinol (PAC) is a precursor for the synthesis of several pharmaceuticals, including ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and norephedrine. PAC commonly produced through biotransformation using microbial pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) in form frozen-thawed whole cells. However, lack microorganisms capable high PDC activity main factor production PAC. In addition, researchers are also looking ways to utilize agro-industrial residues as an inexpensive carbon source integrated biorefinery...
The aim of the present study was to maximize extraction gymnemic acid (GA) from Phak Chiang Da (PCD) leaves, an indigenous medicinal plant used for diabetic treatment in Northern Thailand. goal overcome low concentration GA which limits its applications among a larger population and develop process produce GA-enriched PCD extract powder. solvent method employed leaves. effect ethanol temperature were investigated determine optimum conditions. A developed powder, properties characterized. In...
A study evaluated nine kinetic data and four parameters related to growth, production of various phytase activities (PEact), released phosphate ion concentration ([Pi]) from five lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains cultivated in three types media: phytate (IP6), milling stage rice bran (MsRB), whitening (WsRB). Score ranking techniques were used, combining these select the most suitable LAB strain for each medium across cultivation time periods (24, 48, 72 h). In IP6 medium,...
In a pharmacokinetic study, high-performance liquid chromatography analysis of blood samples Wistar female rats fed with partially saturated canthaxanthin (PSC) Aspergillus carbonarius showed the presence carotenoid in plasma within 6 hours feeding. another study for safety assessment PSC to over period 28 days at 0.05%, 0.10%, and 0.25%, no changes food intake. There were significant differences observed body weight, hematological parameters, or serum clinical enzymes compared control group...
