The purified fish visceral protease enzyme was immobilized by using various concentrations of sodium alginate and calcium chloride to optimize the best concentration for the formation of the beads. Then it was characterized by assaying the optimal pH, temperature, storage stability and reusability. The results on immobilization with sodium alginate and calcium chloride showed that a combination...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa BBRC-10036 was used for lipase production. The organism secreted the enzyme extracellulary. In order to purify the enzyme, precipitation was done first, and then this lipase has been purified by Ion exchange Chromatography leading to 2.3-fold purification and 11.47% recovery. Lipase from P.aeruginosa was entrapped into Ca-alginate gel beads and effect of independent varia...

background: l-glutamic acid is one of the major amino acids that is present in a wide variety of foods. it is mainly used as a food additive and flavor enhancer in the form of sodium salt. corynebacterium glutamicum (c. glutamicum) is one of the major organisms widely used for glutamic acid production. methods: the study was dealing with immobilization of c. glutamicum and mixed culture of c. g...

the present study deals with development of a floating in-situ gel of the narrow absorption window drug baclofen. sodium alginate-based in-situ gelling systems were prepared by dissolving various concentrations of sodium alginate in deionized water, to which varying concentrations of drug and calcium bicarbonate were added. fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir) and differential scannin...

in the baking industry, use of hydrocolloid technology to improve the operation and to increase the tolerance to paste fermentation conditions, improve quality and increase the shelf life of fresh as well as stored bread, is of large applications. this research was carried out to evaluate the effects of gel of sodium alginate on rheological properties of dough and quality (volume, specific volu...

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of 0.5 % Sodium hypochlorite and 2% Glutaraldehyde spray disinfectants on impression compound and irreversible hydrocolloid impressions. Material and Methods: Twenty edentulous patients (age group of 45-65 years) were randomly selected for the present study. Maxillary and mandibular impressions of 10 patients were made in compound and remaining 10 patients in a...

Quince seed mucilage was used in a combination of sodium alginate to develop sustained-release microspheres cefixime. Physical characterizations such as FTIR, TGA, DSC, and SEM were performed on the prepared microspheres. The swelling maximum at pH 7.4 reduced acidic pH. average particle size ranged from 679 µm ± 0.21 810 0.31, while drug encapsulation efficiency range found 73.76 0.24–85.63 0....

BACKGROUND Absorption of antigens onto chitosan microparticles via electrostatic interaction is a common and relatively mild process suitable for mucosal vaccine. In order to increase the stability of antigens and prevent an immediate desorption of antigens from chitosan carriers in gastrointestinal tract, coating onto BSA loaded chitosan microparticles with sodium alginate was performed by lay...

The development of oral sustained or controlled release dosage form of captopril has been an interested topic of research for a long period of time. Difficulties encountered on the fact that the drug is freely water soluble. Such drug is difficult to be delivered orally in a sustained or controlled release manner and, Due to its effectiveness and intensive use as a drug of choice in the treatme...
