There is a need for non-antibiotic, antimicrobial compositions with low toxicity capable of broad-spectrum eradication of pathogenic biofilms in food preparation and healthcare settings. In this study we demonstrated complete biofilm eradication within 60 min with synergistic combinations of caprylic and polygalacturonic (PG) acids in an in vitro biofilm eradication model against representative...

introduction: polyclonal antibodies are required to be affinity purified. improved purification methods of polyclonal antibody provide an opportunity to pick the most purified immunoglobulins as a primary or secondary antibody in immunoassays that are included in many vaccine studies. two common techniques for purifying proteins is salt precipitation and chromatography purification. our work fo...

Abstract Bioconversion of CO 2 into liquid fuels or chemicals, preferred medium chain carboxylic acids (caproic and caprylic acid), is an attractive utilization technology. The present study aims to investigate the effects different ratios H /CO on regulating distribution C2‐C8 acid products, while headspace pressure 1.5 bar was set amplify effect ratios. ratio 4:1 more suitable for preparing a...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder of motor neurons causing progressive muscle weakness, paralysis, and finally death. ALS patients suffer from asthenia and their progressive weakness negatively impacts quality of life, limiting their daily activities. They have impaired energy balance linked to lower activity of mitochondrial electron transport chain enzymes in...

enzymatic acidolysis of canola oil through caprylic acid was investigated to produce certain medium chain ttriacyliglycerol (tag) structured lipids (sls). lipozyme tl im, an sn-1,3 specific thermomyces lanuginosa lipase, and novozym 435, a non-specific candida antarctica lipase, were utilized as the biocatalysts in a batch reactor. reaction conditions were designed according to taguchi’s approa...

The studies reported here focus on the extraction of La(III), Eu(III), and Yb(III) by chelating hexadentate 3-alkoxy-2-hydroxyphenyl substituted diimine ligands using system Ln(NO3)3–Zn(NO3)2–NaNO3–buffer–H2O/diimine-n-caprylic acid–CHCl3. Significant synergistic enhancement has been observed for Ln(III) from nitrate media in presence Zn(II) n-caprylic acid. These effects can be interpreted sel...

The antimicrobial activity of fatty acids, monolaurin, citric, succinic, fumaric, malic and lactic acid was determined in cultures of two strains of Escherichia coli, three strains of Salmonella sp. and two strains of Clostridium perfringens. Antimicrobial activity was expressed as minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) that prevented growth and glucose utilization in treated cultures. Caprylic...
