Some properties of compounds in degrading bacteria are required for biodegradation of contaminants to higher performance. Those strains which have a high percentage of these features are more effective at biodegradation. The present experiments were designed to measure these parameters. In this study, measurement of cell surface hydrophobic-degrading bacteria was designed which oil was separate...

Noncovalent interactions are ubiquitous in molecular and condensed-phase environments, and hence a reliable theoretical description of these fundamental interactions could pave the way toward a more complete understanding of the microscopic underpinnings for a diverse set of systems in chemistry and biology. In this work, we demonstrate that recent algorithmic advances coupled to the availabili...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of 15 serotypes of salmonella to form biofilm on polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride (pvc) and glass surfaces. .initially slime production was assessed on cra agar and hydrophobicity of 20 salmonella strains isolated from poultry and human and two salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium references strains was achieved by microbial adhesion to n-hexa...

abstract plant nonspecific lipid transfer proteins (nsltps) are divided into nsltp1 and nsltp2. the existence of an internal hydrophobic cavity, is a typical characteristic of nsltps that serves as the binding site for lipid substrates. in this communication a simple, rapid and low-cost alternative method was developed for purification of nsltp2 from rice paddy. after extracting, final supernat...

in this article, the immobilization of microsomal membranes on fractosil and hexadecylfractosil by hydrophobic adsorption is reported. microsomes were prepared from rat brain and thecatalytic activity of antimycin a insensitive nadh-cytochrome c reductase (nccr), one of themembrane bound enzymes in the microsomal electron transport chain, was chosen as a representative ofthe microsomal membrane...

The surface parameter of nanoparticles such as hydrophobicity and a hydrophilicity on protein structure and function is very important. In this study, conformational changes of glucose oxidase (GOx) in the mercaptopurine: GNPs and 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid: GNPs as a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic GNPs surface was investigated by various spectroscopic techniques, including: UV-Vis absorption, f...
