Propionic acid production from glycerol was studied using Propionibacterium acidipropionici DSM 4900 cells immobilized on polyethylenimine-treated Poraver (PEI-Poraver) and Luffa (PEI-Luffa), respectively. Using PEI-Luffa, the average productivity, yield and concentration of propionic acid from 40 g L(-1) glycerol were 0.29 g L(-1) h(-1), 0.74 mol(PA) mol(Gly)(-1) and 20 g L(-1), respectively, ...

Abstract Background Malaria is endemic in sub-Saharan Africa, and oxidative stress has been implicated malaria disease. Luffa cylindrica an ethnomedicinal plant used to treat various diseases, including malaria. The stress-reducing potential of L. malaria-disease state Plasmodium berghei NK-65 parasite-infected mice was carried out vivo. Materials Methods Mice were infected with P. NK-65, the e...
