In this paper, we have analyzed biodesulfurization of dibenzothiophene (DBT) and 4,6-dibenzothiophene (4,6-DMDBT) by 4S metabolic pathway using molecular simulations. Docking analysis revealed lower binding energies inhibition constants (Ki) for 4,6-DMDBT its intermediates with DSZ enzymes than DBT intermediates. The complexes substrate metabolites had higher stability owing to RMSF values apoprotein. docking affinity the inhibitors HBPS HBP (for DBT) DMHBPS DMHBP 4,6-DMDBT) toward enzyme...

The influence of electrode surface chemistry over biofilm growth was evaluated for photo-bioelectrocatalytic fuel cell. A consortium photosynthetic bacteria grown onto different electrodes designed with polyethylenimine (PEI) and multiwall carbon nanotubes as hydrophilic hydrophobic modifier, respectively. were loaded 0.08, 0.17, 0.33 μg/cm2 PEI to change the hydrophilicity. However, 0.56, 0.72, 0.83 mg/cm2 used alter hydrophobicity electrodes. bio-interaction a function contact angle...

This study aims at fabricating multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) based enzymatic bioelectrode for total cholesterol estimation in human serum. For this purpose, a gold (Au) electrode was modified with MWCNTs uniformly dispersed nafion (Nf) matrix. Cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) and esterase (ChEt) were immobilised onto Nf–MWCNTs film-modified Au using layer-by-layer technique to fabricate the final bioelectrodes. The immobilisation of ChOx ChEt electrodes demonstrated by scanning electron...
