The main organic contaminants in municipal wastewater are proteins, polysaccharides, and lipids, which must be hydrolyzed to smaller units. A high concentration of oil grease affects biological treatment processes by forming a layer on the water surface, decreased oxygen transfer rate into aerobic process. Microbial proteases, lipases, amylases, celullases should play essential roles present study aimed isolate lipase- other hydrolytic enzyme-producing microorganisms assess their degradation...
Abstract Biotelemetry, ichthyoplankton and genetic data can provide detailed information about the migratory dynamics reproductive cycle of freshwater fishes. However, few studies have combined these techniques in Neotropical systems. The objective this study was to examine Prochilodus costatus São Francisco River watershed, south‐east Brazil, by comparing ecological importance two rivers species, an undammed segment a dammed one its main tributaries, Pará River. In total, 215 fish were...
Genetic diversity and population studies are essential for conservation wildlife management programs. However, monitoring requires the analysis of multiple loci from many samples. These processes can be laborious expensive. The choice microsatellites PCR calibration genotyping particularly daunting. Here we optimized a low-cost method using microsatellite simultaneous up to 384 samples next-generation sequencing (NGS). We designed primers with adapters combinatorial barcoding amplicon...
Detection of microbial enzymes in natural environments is important to understand biochemical activities and verify the biotechnological potential microorganisms. In present report, 346 isolates from soil, water, plants were screened for enzyme production (caseinase, gelatinase, amylase, carboxymethyl cellulase, esterase). Our results showed that 89.6% produced at least one tested enzyme. A predominance amylase soil samples, cellulase plants, as well esterase gelatinase water was observed....
Abstract Fish stocking programs have been implemented to mitigate the blockage of original riverbeds by construction hydropower dams, which affects natural migration fish populations. However, this method raises concerns regarding genetic rescue populations migratory species. We investigated spatial distribution properties, such as diversity, population structure, and gene flow (migration), Neotropical Prochilodus costatus in Três Marias dam São Francisco River basin, Brazil, examined...
The aim of this work was to study the yeast populations and main hygienic-sanitary microbial indicators in water buffalo mozzarella produced commercialized Minas Gerais, Brazil. Forty-two samples were purchased from retail outlets Belo Horizonte. In addition, five consecutive starter cultures, curd before acidification, acidified collected at an industry city Oliveira. Only three analyzed suitable for consumption according Brazilian sanitary standards. Four milk highly contaminated with...
Hypostomus francisci, commonly known as “cascudo”, is a fish of ecological importance found in the upper São Francisco River, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Here we present complete mitogenome (mtDNA) H. francisci. The whole molecule 16,541 bp long and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA one control region (D-loop). All PCGs francisci mtDNA use standard ATG start codon, except for Cox1, which utilizes GTG. Seven contain TAA stop codons, three TAG, incomplete codons TA − or T−.
The Brazilian brown spider Loxosceles similis (Moenkhaus, 1898) is, like others from the same genus, an arachnid that can cause serious accidents, which is called loxoscelism. Here, we present complete mitochondrial genome sequence (mtDNA) of L. similis. whole DNA molecule 14,683 bp long, contains 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA 22 tRNA and a non-coding Control Region (D-loop) 851 bp. majority genes (PCGs) were found on heavy strain, with exception ND1, ND4, ND4L, ND5. Six different start...
