We herein report the preparation and investigation of antibacterial activity biocidal ionic liquids (ILs) consisting cationic imidazolium or pyridinium an anionic β-lactam antibiotic. The properties were quantified by measuring minimum inhibitory concentration bactericidal against Escherichia coli O157:H7, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecium. In general, ILs had improved than their parent materials, whether individually in combination. 83% experiments,...
The emergence of multi-drug-resistant bacteria, coupled with the lack new antibiotics in development, is fast evolving into a global crisis. New strategies utilizing existing antibacterial agents are urgently needed. We propose one such strategy which four outmoded β-lactam (ampicillin, carbenicillin, cephalothin and oxacillin) well-known antiseptic (chlorhexidine di-acetate) were fashioned group uniform materials based on organic salts (GUMBOS) as an alternative to conventional combination...
Objectives: Reduction in faecal shedding of Shiga toxin-producing enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) food-producing animals is a viable strategy to minimize human disease initiated by exposure these microorganisms.To this end, an intervention involving the electrostatic hybridization two commonly used anti-infective agents for veterinary practice (i.e.chlorhexidine and ampicillin) was evaluated curtail EHECtransmitted from ruminant sources.Chlorhexidine di-ampicillin novel group...
A parallel library of chiral ionic liquid (CIL)-modified silanes as potential selectors was synthesized, and their enantiomeric discrimination abilities were screened by use 19F NMR spectroscopy. The screening method allows for rapid identification the most enantioselective members simultaneous investigation recognition mechanisms. compounds synthesized using quaternization anion-exchange reactions. Three major parameters (type cations, anions, linker chain lengths) included investigated...
Plant-based beverage consumption is increasing markedly. Value-added dehulled rice (Oryza sativa) germination was investigated to improve qualities. Germinating brown has been shown increase health-promoting compounds. Utilizing green processing, wholesome constituents, including bran, vitamins, minerals, oils, fiber and proteins should convey forward into germinated beverages. Rapid visco-analyzer (RVA) data trends established that rice, preheated had higher pasting temperatures than white...
A late fall frost may significantly affect sugar crops’ stem composition, yield and juice quality for biofuel bioproduct manufacture. Research on the effects of in sugarcane is well documented, but information lacking sweet sorghum. Three six commercial cultivars sorghum, respectively, were selected evaluated exposure to a (-2.8°C) Griffin, Georgia, USA. Under same controlled environmental conditions screen house, induced more damage than sorghum stems. The caused tissue exude from stems,...
Event Abstract Back to Effect of Ultrasound Probe Homogenization Improve Sucrose Recovery from Sugar Factory Products Marsha R. Cole1* and William B. Morris1 1 Louisiana Tech University, United States Abstract: Maximizing sugar recovery bagasse final molasses is economically important mills. On average, approximately 20-40 lb sucrose per ton crushed cane lost the each year. Evaluating that loss in terms amount 2016, 128,000–250,000 tons was left unrecovered $76-152 millions profitable...
Event Abstract Back to Application of Ultrasonication Factory C Molasses Improve Viscosity, Sucrose Crystallization, and Extraction William B. Morris1 Marsha Cole1* 1 Louisiana Tech University, United States Extracting sucrose from molasses is a delicate economically important process raw sugar mills. The target product, crystallized sucrose, must be effectively separated which, in series three subsequent extractions, increasingly loaded with natural sugarcane processing impurities that...
A growing number of women around the world are turning to homeopathic remedies cure vaginal yeast infections. Along with natural suppositories and arrests, a new social media driven product known as Yoni Pearls TM becoming an online sensation. While many taking give testaments product’s efficiency, very little research has been done on usage, effectiveness, safety using these well other options. To attempt decipher this trend, arrest, Pearls, boric acid suppositories, tea tree oil were...
