l-asparaginase has remarkable properties which make it useful in dual pharmaceutical and food industries.in this study, simple and advantageous method has been validated for rapid and precise determination of intracellular l-asparaginasein bacterial species. a suspension of bacterial cells was used instead ofcell extract and incubated by substrate (asparagine) after simple wash and centrifugati...

We assessed the enzymatic activation of four different biochars produced from pyrolyzing swine manure and poultry litter, by co-pyrolyzing these livestock residues with agricultural spent mulch plastic film wastes (plastichars). Enzymatic consisted incubating in soil inoculated earthworms (Lumbricus terrestris), which acted as biological vectors to facilitate retention extracellular enzymes ont...

Muller (1879) was the first to recognize that soil animals play an important role in the development of soil. In fact soil fauna represents the most rewarding area of current biological exploration. Soil biota, constitutes the driving force of terrestrial ecosystems because they control the rate of turnover and mineralization of substrates. Yet they remain one of the least known biological fron...

The use of proteins and peptides as human therapeutics has been increased in recent years. Lipase is a relatively homogeneous proteinaceous enzyme indicated in maldigestion. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of humidity along with compactional pressure on the enzymatic activity of wheat germ lipase. Samples of lipase powder were kept at different relative humidity (RH)...

increased salinity stress because of rising temperature as a result of global warming. High salinity enhances plants photorespiration and affects its physiology, but Salicornia europaea L. in Urmia Lake has adapted to grow, propagate and occupy increasingly exposed saline habitats. Plant and soil samples were collected in triplicate plots from different sites of retreated beds of Urmia Lake in ...

Studies to the feasibility to characterize soil types by soil microbiological and biochemical analysis focus on the existence of microbial and biochemical characteristics distinctive to individual soil types. Many authors have attempted to elucidate relationships between microbiological and physico-chemical properties of different soil types (DUTZLER-FRANZ, 1977a, b; KHAZIYEV and KHABIROV, 1983...

abstract cadmium is one of the heavy metals with a considerable importance for its potential toxic effects on soil microbial activities and composition. although, the toxic effect of cadmium on soil microbial activities is somewhat well-known, but the extent to which cd affects soil biota depends largely on soil properties and conditions, particularly soil organic matter contents. thus, the aim...

Soil biological activity has important implications for soil carbon (C) sequestration. However, very little is known about the environmental factors, particularly the effect of soil mineralogy on availability of C for soil microorganisms. In this study, we have investigated the influences of soil type (clay mineralogy) on C mineralization and its effects on biological activity at different leve...

Human activity is one of the main causes of the physical, chemical and biological degradation of soils. This degradation implies a change in soil quality as it involves both a decrease in productivity and changes in the ecological functions of the soil. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of soil use on soil biochemical properties, with the aim of providing data tha...
