In this study, three enzyme hydrolysate termed Dur-A, Dur-B, and Dur-C, were produced from Durvillaea antarctica biomass using viscozyme, cellulase, α-amylase, respectively. exhibited fucose-containing sulfated polysaccharide chemical composition determination characterization by FTIR analyses. addition, had high extraction yields low molecular weights. All extracts determined to have antioxida...

The determination of cellulase distribution on the surface of cellulose fiber is an important parameter to understand when determining the interaction between cellulase and cellulose and/or the cooperation of different types of cellulases during the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose. In this communication, a strategy is presented to quantitatively determine the cellulase colocalization using th...

Sea lettuce (Ulva pertusa) is a nuisance species of green algae that is found all over the world. East-Asian species of the marine gastropod, the sea hare Aplysia kurodai, shows a clear feeding preference for sea lettuce. Compared with cellulose, sea lettuce contains a higher amount of starch as a storage polysaccharide. However, the entire amylolytic system in the digestive fluid of A. kurodai...

aloe vera is a plant of the liliaceae family with a brilliant history in disease treatment. in addition to the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and health care industries, this plant is used in food industry due to having various nutrients such as amino acids and various vitamins or anti-bacterial compounds. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of variables such as temperature, tim...

understanding the function of trichoderma species in the control of phytophthora drechsleri in pistachio orchards is very important.  in this study, the effects of liquid extra-cellular secretions and volatile compounds secreted by 27 isolates of trichoderma harzianum, t. crassum, t. koningii, t.aureoviride, t. asperellum, t. brevicompactum, t.longibrachiatum and t. virens were investigated on ...

Adsorption of cellulase on solids resulting from pretreatment of poplar wood by ammonia fiber expansion (AFEX), ammonia recycled percolation (ARP), controlled pH, dilute acid (DA), flowthrough (FT), lime, and sulfur dioxide (SO(2)) and pure Avicel glucan was measured at 4 degrees C, as were adsorption and desorption of cellulase and adsorption of beta-glucosidase for lignin left after enzymatic...

Natural polysaccharides have received much attention due to their wide range of applications. Although most microbial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) use sugars as the major carbon source, such as glucose or sucrose, in this study, EPSs were induced from a squid pen powder (SPP)-containing medium by Paenibacillus mucilaginosus TKU032, a bacterial strain isolated from Taiwanese soil. Under the optimal...

We characterized the effect of deletion of the Trichoderma reesei (Hypocrea jecorina) ace1 gene encoding the novel cellulase regulator ACEI that was isolated based on its ability to bind to and activate in vivo in Saccharomyces cerevisiae the promoter of the main cellulase gene, cbh1. Deletion of ace1 resulted in an increase in the expression of all the main cellulase genes and two xylanase gen...

N-Bromosuccinimide completely inactivated the cellulase, and titration experiments showed that oxidation of one tryptophan residue per cellulase molecule coincided with 100% inactivation. CM-cellulose protected the enzyme from inactivation by N-bromosuccinimide. The cellulase was inhibited by active benzyl halides, and reaction with 2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzyl bromide resulted in the incorporation ...

sugar beet pulp is one of the sugar industries by-products which can be used for cellulase enzyme production, enzymatic saccharification, and alcohol production due to its high percentage of lingo-cellulosic content. trichoderma spp. is an important fungus that produces a wide range of cellulytic enzymes. in this study, cellulase enzyme was produced by placing sugar beet pulp in trichoderma fer...
