Existence of an internal carbonic anhydrase was demonstrated in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6714. The enzyme, present at a low specific activity, was inducible by limitation in inorganic carbon and inhibited both in vivo and in vitro by acetazolamide. The internal inorganic carbon pool as determined by mass spectrometry, was similarly modulated by the actual inorganic carbon growth reg...

and only three incorporated inorganic sulfate into their microbial proteins when cysteine was present in the medium. One of these cultures, Lachnospira mvltiparus, incorporated about equal amounts of inorganic sulfate into glutathione and microbial protein when cysteine was present in the medium; but failed to form radioactive glutathione when S35 labeled inorganic sulfate was the only source o...

Inorganic membrane science and technology is an attractive field of membrane separation technology, which has been dominated by polymer membranes. Recently, the inorganic membrane has been undergoing rapid development and innovation. Inorganic membranes have the advantage of resisting harsh chemical cleaning, high temperature and wear resistance, high chemical stability, long lifetime, and auto...

In a previous communication from this laboratory (1) a reaction of inorganic phosphate with water was described which occurred during phosphorylation coupled to oxidation in the electron transport system in liver mitochondria. This reaction was followed by observing the replacement of 018 in labeled inorganic phosphate by normal oxygen from water concomitant with the occurrence of phosphorylati...

Inorganic hollow spheres have attracted considerable interest due to their singular properties and wide range of potential applications. In this critical review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the preparation and applications of inorganic hollow spheres. We first discuss the syntheses of inorganic hollow spheres by use of polymers, inorganic nonmetals, metal-based hard templates, small-...

Sulphur status of some soils in Edo Central, Nigeria was evaluated in five different locations; Ekpoma, Irrua, Uromi, Ubiaja and Agbede. The area lies within the derived savanna-forest transitional zone. Surface soil samples (0 – 15 cm) collected from the five localities wasanalyzed for their physico-chemical properties, inorganic, organic and total sulphur contents. Results showed that inorgan...

selenium, a trace mineral complement is used as cofactor of antioxidant enzymes that protects fishes against environmental stress agents and enhances performance in fishes. in this study the different levels of organic and inorganic source of  selenium were included in juvenile rainbow trout diet to evaluate feed conversion ratio (fcr), specific growth rate (sgr), weight gain percent (wg), cond...
