interferon is a protein secreted by eucaryotic cells following stimulation by viruses, bacteria, and many other immunogenes. recent medical studies indicate that interferons have effective role in the treatment of virus infections, immunodeficiency and certain types of cancer such as hairy cell leukaemia (hcl). the aim of the present study is to apply yeast strain for secreting human ifnα2b fol...

onychomycosis due to the yeast and yeast-like fungi was investigated among the 147 patient who refered to the mycology laboratory of school of public health during the period of 11 months. the isolated yeasts and yeast-like fungi were examined by api auxanogram methed. the distribution of isolated microorganisms were c. tropicalis 10(7.4%), c.guillioimondii & (5.9%) cases and one case of each o...

kocho and bula are fermented product of enset (ensete ventricosum). it is the staple food for 20 million people in ethiopia. the aim of study was to isolate, identify and characterize yeast species from fermented kocho and bulla by using biolog micro station. 300 kocho samples were collected from angacha district. 0.1ml of serially diluted samples were streaked on yeast pepton dextrose agar and...

In this work, the effect of immobilization of bread yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) by sol-gel technique combined with functionalized nanoporous silica was investigated in different weight ratios of silica containing materials (TMOS: LUS-1). The activities of immobilized yeast in days after immobilization were examined. The results showed immobilization maintain the yeast life for a longer tim...

onychomycosis is the fungal infection of the nails with worldwide occurrence, caused by various species of dermatophytes, yeasts and molds. in addition, of pain and physical effect of onychomycosis that may interfere with individual’s personal and professional life, it may also causes negative psychosocial consequences in patients. concerning increase of onychomycosis during recent decades and ...

a series of sorbents containing various amounts of borate groups were prepared by chemical immobilization ofp-aminoethylphenylboric acid on a copolymer- treated organosilane spacer glass plates. it was found thatbaker's yeast cells selectively adhered to these supports. yeast cells stained with procion red he-3b formeddenser and more stable layer on the copolymer-grafted supports compared onto ...

A 50-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of yeast nucleotide in diets on growth performance, serum immune indices and muscle composition of Ancherythroculter nigrocauda (mean initial body weight, 23.30±0.59 g). Seven isonitrogenous (approximately 42.76% crude protein) and isoenergetic (17.43 KJ g−1 gross energy) experimental diets with varying levels of yeast nucleotide (0[c...
