Cyanobacteria that grow above seawater salinity at temperatures above 45°C have rarely been studied. Cyanobacteria of this
type of thermo-halophilic extremophile were isolated from siliceous crusts at 40–45°C in a geothermal seawater lagoon in southwest
Iceland. Iceland Clone 2e, a Leptolyngbya morphotype, was selected for further study. This culture grew only at 45–50°C, in medium ranging from 28 to 94 g L−1 TDS, It showed 3 doublings 24 h−1 under continuous illumination. This rate at 54°C was somewhat reduced, and death occurred at 58°C. A comparison of the 16S
rDNA sequence with all others in the NCBI database revealed 2 related Leptolyngbya isolates from a Greenland hot spring (13–16 g L−1 TDS). Three other similar sequences were from Leptolyngbya isolates from dry, endolithic habitats in Yellowstone National Park. All 6 formed a phylogenetic clade, suggesting common
ancestry. These strains shared many similarities to Iceland Clone 2e with respect to temperature and salinity ranges and optima. Two endolithic Leptolyngbya isolates, grown previously at 23°C in freshwater medium, grew well at 50°C but only in saline medium. This study shows that
limited genotypic similarity may reveal some salient phenotypic similarities, even when the related cyanobacteria are from
vastly different and remote habitats. 相似文献

Two 60-day experiments were conducted to study the influence of photon flux density (PFD) and temperature on the attachment
and development of Gloiopeltis tenax and Gloiopeltis furcata tetraspores. In the first experiment, tetraspores of the two Gloiopeltis species were incubated at five temperature ranges (8°C, 12°C, 16°C, 20°C, 24°C) under a constant PFD of 80 μmol photons m−2 s−1 with a photoperiod of 12:12. In a second experiment, tetraspores were incubated under five PFD gradients (30, 55, 80, 105,
130 μmol photons m−2 s−1) at a constant temperature of 16°C with a photoperiod of 12:12. Maximum density of attached tetraspores was observed at 16°C
for both species. Maximum per cent of spore germinating into disc was recorded at 12–16°C for G. tenax and 8–12°C for G. furcata. Maximum per cent of discs producing erect axes for G. tenax and G. furcata were recorded at 24°C and 20°C, respectively. Light had no significant effect on tetraspore attachment and developing into
disc, but it affected the growth, sprouting and survival of its discs. Under 30–55 μmol photons m−2 s−1, the discs of the two species of Gloiopeltis did not form thallus until the end of the experiment. Optimum PFD range for G. tenax discs was 80–105 μmol photons m−2 s−1, whilst it was 80–130 μmol photons m−2 s−1 for G. furcata. Results presented in this study are expected to assist the progress of artificial seeding of Gloiopeltis. 相似文献

The effects of temperature, irradiance, and daylength on Sargassum horneri growth were examined at the germling and adult stages to discern their physiological differences. Temperature–irradiance
(10, 15, 20, 25, 30°C × 20, 40, 80 μmol photons m−2s−1) and daylength (8, 12, 16, 24 h) experiments were carried out. The germlings and blades of S. horneri grew over a wide range of temperatures (10–25°C), irradiances (20–80 μmol photons m−2s−1), and daylengths (8–24 h). At the optimal growth conditions, the relative growth rates (RGR) of the germlings were 21% day−1 (25°C, 20 μmol photons m−2s−1) and 13% day−1 (8 h daylength). In contrast, the RGRs of the blade weights were 4% day−1 (15°C, 20 μmol photons m−2s−1) and 5% day−1 (12 h daylength). Negative growth rates were found at 20 μmol photons m−2s−1 of 20°C and 25°C treatments after 12 days. This phenomenon coincides with the necrosis of S. horneri blades in field populations. In conclusion, we found physiological differences between S. horneri germlings and adults with respect to daylength and temperature optima. The growth of S. horneri germlings could be enhanced at 25°C, 20 μmol photons m−2s−1, and 8 h daylength for construction of Sargassum beds and restoration of barren areas. 相似文献

Haloalkaliphilic sulfur-oxidizing mixed cultures for the treatment of alkaline–saline effluents containing sulfide were characterized
and evaluated. The mixed cultures (IMP-PB, IMP-XO and IMP-TL) were obtained from Mexican alkaline soils collected in Puebla
(PB), Xochimilco (XO) and Tlahuac (TL), respectively. The Ribosomal Intergenic Spacer Analysis (RISA) revealed bacteria related
to Thioalkalibacterium and Thioalkalivibrio in IMP-XO and IMP-PB mixed cultures. Halomonas strains were detected in IMP-XO and IMP-TL. In addition, an uncultured Bacteroides bacterium was present in IMP-TL. Mixed cultures were evaluated at different pH and NaCl concentrations at 30°C. IMP-PB and
IMP-TL expressed thiosulfate-oxidizing activity in the 7.5–10.5 pH range, whereas IMP-XO presented its maximal activity with
19.0 mg O2 gprotein−1 min−1, at pH 10.6; it was not affected by NaCl concentrations up to 1.7 M. In continuous culture, IMP-XO showed a growth rate of
15 day−1, productivity of 433.4 mgprotein l−1 day−1 and haloalkaliphilic sulfur-oxidizing activity was also detected up to 170 mM by means of N-methyl-diethanolamine (MDEA). Saline–alkaline soil samples are potential sources of haloalkaliphilic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria
and the mixed cultures could be applied in the treatment of inorganic sulfur compounds in petroleum industry effluents under
alkaline–saline conditions. 相似文献

A newly isolated Geobacillus sp. IIPTN (MTCC 5319) from the hot spring of Uttarakhand's Himalayan region produced a hyperthermostable α-amylase. The microorganism
was characterized by biochemical tests and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The optimal temperature and pH were 60°C and 6.5, respectively,
for growth and enzyme production. Although it was able to grow in temperature ranges from 50 to 80°C and pH 5.5–8.5. Maximum
enzyme production was in exponential phase with activity 135 U ml−1 at 60°C. Assayed with cassava as substrate, the enzyme displayed optimal activity 192 U ml−1 at pH 5.0 and 80°C. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity with purification fold 82 and specific activity 1,200 U mg−1 protein. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was 97 KDa. The values of K
m
and V
max were 36 mg ml−1 and 222 μmol mg−1 protein min−1, respectively. The amylase was stable over a broad range of temperature from 40°C to 120°C and pH ranges from 5 to 10. The
enzyme was stimulated with Mn2+, whereas it was inhibited by Hg2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Mg2+, and EDTA, suggesting that it is a metalloenzyme. Besides hyperthermostability, the novelty of this enzyme is resistance
against protease. 相似文献

A Psychrotolerant alkaline protease producing bacterium IIIM-ST045 was isolated from a soil sample collected from the Thajiwas
glacier of Kashmir, India and identified as Stenotrophomonas sp. on the basis of its biochemical properties and 16S ribosomal gene sequencing. The strain could grow well within a temperature
range of 4–37°C however, showed optimum growth at 15°C. The strain was found to over-produce proteases when it was grown in
media containing lactose as carbon source (157.50 U mg−1). The maximum specific enzyme activity (398 U mg−1) was obtained using soya oil as nitrogen source, however, the inorganic nitrogen sources urea, ammonium chloride and ammonium
sulphate showed the lowest production of 38.9, 62.2 and 57.9 U mg−1. The enzyme was purified to 18.45 folds and the molecular weight of the partially purified protease was estimated to be ~55 kDa
by SDS-PAGE analysis. The protease activity increased as the increase in enzyme concentration while as the optimum enzyme
activity was found when casein (1% w/v) was used as substrate. The enzyme was highly active over a wide range of pH from 6.5
to 12.0 showing optimum activity at pH 10.0. The optimum temperature for the enzyme was 15°C. Proteolytic activity reduced
gradually with higher temperatures with a decrease of 56% at 40°C. The purified enzyme was checked for the removal of protein
containing tea stains using a silk cloth within a temperature range of 10–60°C. The best washing efficiency results obtained
at low temperatures indicate that the enzyme may be used for cold washing purposes of delicate fabrics that otherwise are
vulnerable to high temperatures. 相似文献

Morphology and culture studies on germlings of Sargassum thunbergii (Mertens et Roth) Kuntze were carried out under controlled laboratory conditions. Growth characteristics of these germlings
grown under different temperatures (from 10 to 25°C), irradiances (from 9 to 88 μmol photons m−2 s−1), and under blue and white light conditions are described. The development of embryonic germlings follows the classic “8
nuclei 1 egg” type described for Sargassaceae. Fertilized eggs spent 5–6 h developing into multicellular germlings with abundant
rhizoids after fertilization. Under conditions of 20°C, 44 μmol photons m−2 s−1 and photoperiod of 12 h, young germlings with one or two leaflets reached 2–3 mm in length after 8 weeks. Temperature variations
(10, 15, 20, 25°C) under 88 μmol photons m−2 s−1 significantly influenced the growth rate within the first week, although this effect became less obvious after 8 weeks, especially
at 15 and 20°C. Variation in germling growth was highly significant under different irradiances (9, 18, 44, 88 μmol photons
m−2 s−1) at 25°C. Low temperature (10°C) reduced germling growth. Growth of germlings cultured under blue light was lower than in
white light. Optimal growth of these germlings occurred at 25°C and 44 μmol photons m−2 s−1. 相似文献

Purification, immobilization and characterization of linoleic acid isomerase on modified palygorskite 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Linoleic acid isomerase from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus 1.1480 was purified by DEAE ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography. An overall 5.1% yield and purification
of 93-fold were obtained. The molecular weight of the purified protein was ~41 kDa which was analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The purified
enzyme was immobilized on palygorskite modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. The immobilized enzyme showed an activity
of 82 U/g. The optimal temperature and pH for the activity of the free enzyme were 30 °C and pH 6.5, respectively; whereas
those for the immobilized enzyme were 35 °C and pH 7.0, respectively. The immobilized enzyme was more stable than the free
enzyme at 30–60 °C, and the operational stability result showed that more than 85% of its initial activity was retained after
incubation for 3 h. The K
m and V
max values of the immobilized enzyme were found to be 0.0619 mmol l−1 and 0.147 mmol h−1 mg−1, respectively. The immobilized enzyme had high operational stability and retained high enzymatic activity after seven cycles
of reuse at 37 °C. 相似文献

The preservation of Agaricus blazei is generally done by mycelial subculturing, but this technique may cause genetic degenerations. Despite this, there is not
an efficient protocol established to preserve this fungus and cryopreservation could be an alternative. This study aimed to
evaluate two freezing protocols for cryopreservation at −80°C of A. blazei strains. Five fungus strains grown on rice grains with husk and were transferred to glycerol (10%) in cryovials. Next, the
cryovials were submitted to two freezing temperature protocols: (1) cryopreservation starting at 25°C, then at 8°C for 30 min
and kept at −80°C; (2) cryopreservation starting at 25°C, then 8°C for 30 min, −196°C for 15 min and kept at −80°C. After
1 year of cryopreservation, the cryovials were thawed in a water bath at 30°C for 15 min and transferred to malt extract agar
medium. It was concluded that the one-year cryopreservation process of A. blazei, grown on rice grains and cryopreserved at −80°C in glycerol 10%, is viable. The slow freezing, from 8 to −80°C, is effective
whereas the fast freezing, from 8 to −196°C and then to −80°C, is ineffective. The different genetic characteristics among
the strains of this fungus do not interfere in the cryopreservation process. 相似文献

Decolorization of Acid red 151 by Aspergillus niger SA1 under different physicochemical conditions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The fungal strain A. niger SA1 isolated from textile wastewater pond proved to be an important source of remediation (decolorization/degradation) for
textile dye, AR 151 (Reactive diazo dye) under different physicochemical conditions. Decolorization assays of AR 151 were
carried out in Simulated textile effluent under shake flask condition for 8 days. Decolorization (at 20 mg l−1 of dye) and related biomass production overall decreased with increase in pH from 5 to 9, at 30°C. It was maximum (95.71%)
at pH 5 with highest amount of three residual products (36.91 (α-naphthol = 5.72) (sulfanilic acid = 24.81) (aniline = 6.38))
besides 2.05 mg ml−1 of biomass production at an optimum concentration 6 and 0.1 mg l−1 of glucose and urea respectively. The formation of the three products followed a quite different pattern at different pH
values, however, it was considerably low (Total = 2.81 mg l−1) compared to the amount of decolorization (67.26%) at pH 8. Decolorization (95–97%) was most favored under mesophilic temperature
(25–45°C). It increased i.e., 90–98% with subsequent increase in dye from 10 to 100 mg l−1, kept ≥50% below 400 mg l−1 and drastically declined to 17% at 500 mg l−1 of dye. Apparently, decolorization is found to be associated with fungal growth and hyphal uptake mechanism (Biosorption/Bioadsorption),
however, mineralization of AR 151 and related products under different operational conditions also suggested a metabolically
mediated decolorization/degradation. 相似文献

A Bacillus sp., capable of degrading chloroform, was immobilized in calcium alginate. The beads in 20 g alginate l−1 (about 2 × 108 cells/bead) could be re-used nine times for degradation of chloroform at 40 μM. The immobilized cells had a higher range
of tolerance (pH 6.5–9 and 20–41°C) than free cells (pH 7–8.5 and 28–32°C). At 5 g alginate l−1, leakage of the cells from the beads was 0.51 mg dry wt ml−1. This species is the first reported Bacillus that can degrade chloroform as the sole carbon source. 相似文献

Two experiments were performed to determine how application of the cytokinin benzyladenine (BA) influenced flowering in Doritaenopsis and Phalaenopsis orchid clones. In the first experiment, two vegetative orchid clones growing in 15-cm pots were transferred from a 28°C greenhouse
that inhibited flowering to a 23°C greenhouse for flower induction (day 0). A foliar spray (0.2 L m−2) containing BA at 100, 200, or 400 mg L−1 or 25, 50, or 100 mg L−1 each of BA and gibberellins A4 + A7 (BA+GA) was applied on days 0, 7, and 14. Plants treated with BA alone at 200 or 400 mg L−1 had a visible inflorescence 3–9 days earlier and had a mean of 0.7–3.5 more inflorescences and 3–8 more flowers per plant
than nontreated plants. The application of BA+GA had no effect on inflorescence number and total flower number at the rates
tested. In the second experiment, three orchid clones received a single foliar spray of BA at 200 mg L−1 at six time points relative to time of transfer from 29°C to 23°C (−1, 0, +1, +2, +4, or +6 weeks). A separate group of plants
received a BA application at week 0 but was maintained at 29°C. Inflorescence number was greatest in all three orchid clones
when plants were treated with BA 1 week after the temperature transfer. Plants that were sprayed with BA and maintained at
29°C did not initiate inflorescences. The promotion of flowering by the application of BA suggests that cytokinins at least
partially regulate inflorescence initiation of Doritaenopsis and Phalaenopsis, but its promotion is conditional and BA application cannot completely substitute for an inductive low temperature. 相似文献

Two reactors, initially operated at 14 and 23±1°C (RA and RB, respectively), were inoculated with a bacterial consortium enriched and acclimatized to the respective temperatures over 4 months. The biofilms, formed in the reactors, were studied using scanning electron microscopy, cultivation of the biofilm microflora, and physiological analysis of the isolates. Two bacteria able to mineralize chlorophenols under a large range of temperature (10–30°C) were isolated from the biofilm communities of reactors RA and RB and characterized as Alcaligenaceae bacterium R14C4 and Cupriavidus basilensis R25C6, respectively. When temperature was decreased by 10°C, the chlorophenols removal capacity was reduced from 51.6 to 22.8 mg l−1 h−1 in bioreactor RA (from 14 to 4°C) and from 59.3 to 34.7 mg l−1 h−1 in bioreactor RB (from 23±1 to 14°C). Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of the biofilm communities showed that, in all temperatures tested, the β-proteobacteria were the major bacterial community (35–47%) followed by the γ-proteobacteria (12.0–6.5%). When the temperature was decreased by 10°C, the proportions of γ-proteobacteria and Pseudomonas species increased significantly in both microbial communities. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to select endophytic fungi from mangrove plants that produced antimicrobial substances. Minimal inhibitory
concentrations (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentrations (MBC) or minimal fungicidal concentrations (MFC) of crude extracts
from 150 isolates were determined against potential human pathogens by a colorimetric microdilution method. Ninety-two isolates
(61.3%) produced inhibitory compounds. Most of the extracts (28–32%) inhibited Staphylococcus aureus (MIC/MBC 4–200/64–200 μg ml−1). Only two extracts inhibited Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MIC/MBC 200/>200 μg ml−1). 25.5 and 11.7% inhibited Microsporum gypseum and Cryptococcus neoformans (MIC/MFC 4–200/8–200 μg ml−1 and 8–200/8–200 μg ml−1, respectively), while 7.5% were active against Candida albicans (MIC/MFC 32–200/32–200 μg ml−1). None of the extracts inhibited Escherichia coli. The most active fungal extracts were from six genera, Acremonium, Diaporthe, Hypoxylon, Pestalotiopsis, Phomopsis, and Xylaria as identified using morphological and molecular methods. Phomopsis sp. MA194 (GU592007, GU592018) isolated from Rhizophora apiculata showed the broadest antimicrobial spectrum with low MIC values of 8–32 μg ml−1against Gram-positive bacteria, yeasts and M. gypseum. It was concluded that endophytic fungi from mangrove plants are diverse, many produce compounds with antimicrobial activity
and could be suitable sources of new antimicrobial natural products. 相似文献

In reef corals, much research has focused on the capacity of corals to acclimatize and/or adapt to different thermal environments,
but the majority of work has focused on distinctions in mean temperature. Across small spatial scales, distinctions in daily
temperature variation are common, but the role of such environmental variation in setting coral thermal tolerances has received
little attention. Here, we take advantage of back-reef pools in American Samoa that differ in thermal variation to investigate
the effects of thermally fluctuating environments on coral thermal tolerance. We experimentally heat-stressed Acropora hyacinthus from a thermally moderate lagoon pool (temp range 26.5–33.3°C) and from a more thermally variable pool that naturally experiences
2–3 h high temperature events during summer low tides (temp range 25.0–35°C). We compared mortality and photosystem II photochemical
efficiency of colony fragments exposed to ambient temperatures (median: 28.0°C) or elevated temperatures (median: 31.5°C).
In the heated treatment, moderate pool corals showed nearly 50% mortality whether they hosted heat-sensitive (49.2 ± 6.5%
SE; C2) or heat-resistant (47.0 ± 11.2% SE; D) symbionts. However, variable pool corals, all of which hosted heat-resistant
symbionts, survived well, showing low mortalities (16.6 ± 8.8% SE) statistically indistinguishable from controls held at ambient
temperatures (5.1–8.3 ± 3.3–8.3% SE). Similarly, moderate pool corals hosting heat-sensitive algae showed rapid rates of decline
in algal photosystem II photochemical efficiency in the elevated temperature treatment (slope = −0.04 day−1 ± 0.007 SE); moderate pool corals hosting heat-resistant algae showed intermediate levels of decline (slope = −0.039 day−1 ± 0.007 SE); and variable pool corals hosting heat-resistant algae showed the least decline (slope = −0.028 day−1 ± 0.004 SE). High gene flow among pools suggests that these differences probably reflect coral acclimatization not local
genetic adaptation. Our results suggest that previous exposure to an environmentally variable microhabitat adds substantially
to coral–algal thermal tolerance, beyond that provided by heat-resistant symbionts alone. 相似文献

A gene from Withania somnifera (winter cherry), encoding a highly stable chloroplastic Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD), was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant enzyme (specific activity of ~4,200 U mg−1) was purified and characterized. It retained ~90 and ~70% residual activities after 1 h at 80 and 95°C, respectively. At
95°C, thermal inactivation rate constant (K
d) of the enzyme was 2.46 × 10−3 min−1 and half-life of heat inactivation was 4.68 h. The enzyme was stable against a broad pH range (2.5–11.0). It also showed
a high degree of resistance to detergent, ethanol and protease digestion. This recombinant Cu/Zn SOD could therefore have
useful applications. 相似文献

Xylose reductase (XR) is the enzyme that catalyzes the first step of xylose metabolism. Although XRs from various yeasts have
been characterized, little is known about this enzyme in Debaryomyces hansenii. In the present study, response surface analysis was used to determine the optimal conditions for D. hansenii UFV-170 XR activity. The influence of pH and temperature, ranging from 4.0 to 8.0 and from 25 to 55°C, respectively, was
evaluated by a 22 central composite design face-centered. The F-test (ANOVA) and the Student’s t test were performed to evaluate the statistical significance of the model and the regression coefficients, respectively.
The NADPH-dependent XR activity varied from 0.502 to 2.53 U mL−1, corresponding to 0.07–0.352 U mg−1, whereas the NADH-dependent one was almost negligible. The model predicted with satisfactory correlation (R
2 = 0.940) maximum volumetric activity of 2.27 U mL−1 and specific activity of 0.300 U mg−1 at pH 5.3 and 39°C, which were fairly confirmed by additional tests performed under these conditions. The enzyme proved very
stable at low temperature (4°C), keeping its activity almost entirely after 360 min, which corresponded to the half-time at
39°C. On the other hand, at temperatures ≥50°C it was lost almost completely after only 20 min. 相似文献

A complete gene, xyl10C, encoding a thermophilic endo-1,4-β-xylanase (XYL10C), was cloned from the acidophilic fungus Bispora sp. MEY-1 and expressed in Pichia pastoris. XYL10C shares highest nucleotide and amino acid sequence identities of 57.3 and 49.7%, respectively, with a putative xylanase
from Aspergillus fumigatus Af293 of glycoside hydrolase family 10. A high expression level in P. pastoris (73,400 U ml−1) was achieved in a 3.7–l fermenter. The purified recombinant XYL10C was thermophilic, exhibiting maximum activity at 85°C,
which is higher than that reported from any fungal xylanase. The enzyme was also highly thermostable, exhibiting ~100% of
the initial activity after incubation at 80°C for 60 min and >87% of activity at 90°C for 10 min. The half lives of XYL10C
at 80 and 85°C were approximately 45 and 3 h, respectively. It had two activity peaks at pH 3.0 and 4.5–5.0 (maximum), respectively,
and was very acid stable, retaining more than 80% activity after incubation at pH 1.5−6.0 for 1 h. The enzyme was resistant
to Co2+, Mn2+, Cr3+ and Ag+. The specific activity of XYL10C for oat spelt xylan was 18,831 U mg−1. It also had wide substrate specificity and produced simple products (65.1% xylose, 25.0% xylobiose and 9.9% xylan polymer)
from oat spelt xylan. 相似文献

Lipase-catalyzed synthesis of isoamyl acetate in hexane at 10–250 MPa at 80°C and 1–100 MPa at 40°C resulted in activation
volumes of −12.9 ± 1.7 and −21.6 ± 2.9 cm3 mol−1, respectively. Increasing pressure from 10 to 200 MPa resulted in approximately 10-fold increase in V
max at both 40 and 80°C. Pressure increased the K
m from 2.4 ± 0.004 to 38 ± 0.78 mM at 40°C. In contrast, at 80°C the pressure did not affect the K

An alkaline protease from marine Engyodontium album was characterized for its physicochemical properties towards evaluation of its suitability for potential industrial applications.
Molecular mass of the enzyme by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) analysis was calculated
as 28.6 kDa. Isoelectric focusing yielded pI of 3–4. Enzyme inhibition by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) and aprotinin
confirmed the serine protease nature of the enzyme. K
m, V
max, and K
cat of the enzyme were 4.727 × 10−2 mg/ml, 394.68 U, and 4.2175 × 10−2 s−1, respectively. Enzyme was noted to be active over a broad range of pH (6–12) and temperature (15–65°C), with maximum activity
at pH 11 and 60°C. CaCl2 (1 mM), starch (1%), and sucrose (1%) imparted thermal stability at 65°C. Hg2+, Cu2+, Fe3+, Zn2+, Cd+, and Al3+ inhibited enzyme activity, while 1 mM Co2+ enhanced enzyme activity. Reducing agents enhanced enzyme activity at lower concentrations. The enzyme showed considerable
storage stability, and retained its activity in the presence of hydrocarbons, natural oils, surfactants, and most of the organic
solvents tested. Results indicate that the marine protease holds potential for use in the detergent industry and for varied
applications. 相似文献
