Endobiotic fungi are considered as a reservoir of numerous active metabolites. Asparaginase is used an antileukemic drug specially to treat acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The presented study aims optimize the media conditions, purify, characterize, and test activity asparaginase induced from Lasiodiplodia theobromae. culture medium was optimized using experiment designed by Taguchi model with ranging 10 175 IU/mL. 315 purified specific 468.03 U/mg total 84.4 showed approximate size 70 kDa....
A multitude of plants from the Brazilian savanna are known for their medicinal properties. Many contain endophytic fungi, which lead to production bioactive compounds by both fungi and hosts. This study investigated bioprospecting recovered leaves Palicourea rigida, a native plant savanna. Four fungal taxa (Colletotrichum sp. SXS649, Pestalotiopsis SXS650, order Botryosphaeriales SXS651, Diaporthe SXS652) were recovered. The phenolic, flavonoid, extracellular degrading enzymes (amylase,...
Background: Lichens play an important role in many ecosystems and exist as a symbiotic association between fungi algae or cyanobacteria. This symbiosis results the production of unique secondary metabolites known lichen substances, which arise within thalli are typically crystal form on surface fungal hyphae. Recently, lichens their have been receiving increased attention due to nutritional value pharmaceutical potential. Objectives: review aims cast light importance variety common...
Background and objective Medicinal mushrooms are mines of various biologically active compounds. Therefore, chemical analysis in-vitro evaluation some biological activities the Japanese originated mushroom Ganoderma spp. were conducted. Materials methods Extraction fruiting bodies was accomplished using 80% methanol. This extract investigated for its cholesterol-lowering activity, anti-rotavirus effect, anti-human colon cancer influence. Moreover, a gas chromatography–mass spectrometry this...
ABSTRACTZeolite-bacterial cellulose nanocomposite membrane (ZBCN) has been prepared and evaluated as a catalyst in the transesterification of waste cooking oil (WCO) to give biodiesel. Bacterial was obtained during cultivation Komagataeibacter bacterial isolate; meanwhile, zeolite A (ZA) from Egyptian ores. The results confirmed that, amount triglyceride (TG) converted into fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) ≥77%, while total conversion TG other compounds were 84.4% 7.4%, respectively, 9 h...
COVID-19 presents varied clinical features, ranging from asymptomatic, mild, to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). People of any age can be infected by the novel coronavirus but some people are at more risk than others becoming seriously ill with COVID-19. Older people, and pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) appear vulnerable developing severe or even lethal illness. Children SARS-CoV-2, become However, they less susceptible infection adults...
Background and objectives Fungal deterioration of cultural heritage is a major problem that causes physical chemical damage as well esthetic alteration. In the current research, fungal species exist on brick sample obtained from Egyptian historical places were isolated identified. Moreover, various metabolic products produced by detected, which may play an important role in many buildings. Materials methods Various fungi existing samples collected place identified phenotypically then...
