L-phenylalanine was produced by genetically modified bacterium, Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), using glycerol as an alternative carbon source. Response surface methodology (RSM) involving central composite design (CCD) was adopted to evaluate the amount of L-phenylalanine produced. In this work, the optimum concentrations were determined of the major nutrients in the fermentation medium, which inc...

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) was released in vitro in a pulsatile pattern from the hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal system (HNS) and from the hypothalamus during continuous hyperosmotic stimuli with NaCl or fructose. No significant difference was found in the AVP pulse frequency between the two kinds of hyperosmotic agents. AVP was released from the HNS in a dose-related manner under NaCl stimulation...

Marinococcus luteus SSLB1, isolated from the Sambhar Salt Lake, Rajasthan, India, could tolerate NaCl upto 25%, (w/v) concentration in a complex medium. The overall structural and compositional changes in the bacterial isolate in the presence of variable concentrations of NaCl (0-25%) was analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic techniques. Results on FTIR analysis showed NaC...

the batch fermentation production of human growth hormone (hgh) was studied in a newrecombinant escherichia coli. the effect of different levels of dissolved oxygen and glucoseconcentration on cell density and substrate utilization were evaluated. the results indicated that theoptimum level of dissolved oxygen was 25% of air saturation. the specific growth rate reached amaximum for an optimal g...

in this paper‎, ‎we study convergence behavior of the global fom (gl-fom) and global gmres (gl-gmres) methods for solving the matrix equation $axb=c$ where $a$ and $b$ are symmetric positive definite (spd)‎. ‎we present some new theoretical results of these methods such as computable exact expressions and upper bounds for the norm of the error and residual‎. ‎in particular‎, ‎the obtained upper...

Ionic interactions in the two systems NaCl-HEPES (N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid) and NaCl-MOPSO (3-(N-Morpholino)-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid) have been studied in terms of their mutual influence on the respective activity coefficients of each component. Activity coefficients for each component of the two systems and for corresponding buffers are calculated from emf meas...

The solubility limit data of salts are typically measured in distilled water and not in saline or salt-laden solutions. So, the current study was initiated to measure the solubility limit of major salts in different concentration of NaCl solutions and was compared to the solubility limit of the same salt to that in real seawater solution. A major finding from the experimental results was that t...

background and objectives: preparation and evaluation of nanocomposite films have become prevalent in recent years. depending on the purpose of using the film, and considering the effects and interaction effects of nanomaterial and other modifiers on the film properties, the amounts of nanomaterials and modifiers should be optimized. the effects of montmorillonite (mmt), glycerol (gl), and thei...

Glycosaminoglycans (GAG) of bovine cornea were sequentially extracted by 0.15 M NaCl and by 1 M CaCl2, pH 8. The amounts of hexosamine (HexN) and hexuronic acid (HexUA), specific hexoses (Hex), and protein were determined in the extracts. The ultrastructure of the corneal stroma after NaCl and NaCl/CaCl2 extraction was also studied. Approximately 70% of the Hex-HexN extractable by 0.15 M NaCl i...
