Background Lipids are one of the major pollutants in domestic and industrial effluents. The use of lipases in the treatment of these effluents as well as in the bioremediation of contaminated environments represents an environmentally safe alternative to chemical methods [1]. Lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) are carboxylesterases that catalyze synthesis and hydrolysis of long-chain acylglycerols (>10 carbo...

Dairy production systems in the US have changed considerably over the last several decades due to forces that promote economic efficiency of production and to scientific and technological advances that afford opportunities for change. Societal values and concerns about animal wellbeing and specifically about livestock production systems and their impact on animal well-being have also changed th...

Lipases are water-soluble enzymes that act on insoluble substrates and catalyze the hydrolysis of long-chain triglycerides. Lipases play a vital role in the food, detergent, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. In the past, fungal lipases gained significant attention in the industries due to their substrate specificity and stability under varied chemical and physical conditions. Fungal enzy...

Sikkim, a mountainous state in the Himalayas joined the democratic mainstream of the Indian Union in 1975. It has made enormous progress in planned economic development since then.
