The present investigation signifies the role of Enterobacter spp. in various processes:
??To synthesize gallic acid (a precursor for food oxidant such as propyl gallate) and a bacteriostatic antibiotic (trimethoprim).
??To protect the environment from tannery’s discharge through the process of biodegradation.
??To reduce the toxicity of tannins in animal feed.
- Clinical significance
Elevated sarcosine levels are associated with prostate and colorectal cancer, Alzheimer, dementia, stomach cancer and sarcosinemia.
Quantitative determination of sarcosine is of great importance in clinical chemistry as well as food and fermentation industries.
Attempts made in development of sarcosine biosensors have been reviewed with their advantages and disadvantages, so that scientist and clinicians can improvise the methods of developing more potent sarcosine biosensor applicable in multitudinous fields.
This is the first comprehensive review which compares the various immobilization methods, sensing principles, strategies used in biosensors and their analytical performance in detail.

A removed ear, not yet mature, exerts a depressing effect upon the development of the stem and ucon the leaf's functions.
-
The threads and the pistils removed inhibit the enlongament of the stem and alter the functions of leaves.
-
Maturing seeds removed cause trubles on the function of the vegetative organ.
-
Continuous darkness leads in a few days to a disappearance of the variations of the circadian rhythms of digestive enzymes while these rhythms go on in continuous light.
-
Short (1 or 2 hrs) and low intensity flashes of white light are effective in bringing on the reappearance of rhythmic variations in darkness.
-
We have been able to establish an isoquantic spectrum of action of the light. Two values of wavelength appears to account for a maximum sensibility of the shrimp: one in ultraviolet light and an other one, more important, in the green (λ=544 nm).
-
In green light it is possible to obtain the same effect of light by decreasing the time of stimulation to 5 or 10 mn and in increasing the total quantity of energy. Significant responses are obtained with total energy greater than 10000 pE. cm‐2.
The catalase activity of Candida tropicalis pK 233 was induced by hydrocarbons but not by glucose, galactose, ethanol, acetate or lauryl alcohol.
The induction of the catalase activity depending upon hydrocarbons was sensitive to cycloheximide but not to chloramphenicol.
Glucose repressed strongly the induction of the catalase activity by hydrocarbons but galactose did not affect seriously.
When C. tropicalis was incubated with hydrocarbons, the appearance of microbodies was observed electronmicroscopicaliy.

l-Aspartate was found to replace l-asparagine in the protective action from acid inactivation of l-asparaginase (EC 3.5.1.1) produced by Escherichia coli A–1–3 and at the same time to inhibit the proteolytic inactivation by α-chymotrypsin.
l-Asparaginase changed in its chromatographic properties in the presence of l-aspartate and became to be absorbed on the CM Sephadex column.
The sedimentation patterns of l-asparaginase at pH 3.5 were identical either in the presence or absence of l-aspartate, showing partial dissociation. But the reversibility to the active state was observed only in the enzyme dissolved in the solution containing l-aspartate.
l-Aspartate did not prevent the enzyme either from the dissociation into subunits or from decrease in the activity by urea.
High concentration of l-aspartate was shown to inhibit the l-asparagine hydrolysis reaction.
l-Aspartate was suggested from ORD measurements to cause changes in the higher structure as well as the ionic properties or proteolytic inactivation.

the activity of some glycolytic enzymes increases greatly (81% and 400% increase of, respectively, Gl-6-P-dehydrogenase and aldolase) upon incubation of dry seeds for few hours at 4 °C.
-
The decrease of enzyme activity upon dehydration of seeds and the increase during the subsequent imbibition can be shown reproducibly.

This same observation is made for oxygen uptake.

The substances fresh and dry are less in the bored leaves than in the sound, the dry substance shows little alternations in those bored in one or the other half of the border.

ultra-violet light stimulates the germinating power of grains, born from subjects treated no longer than 240 hours at a distance of 1 m from the lamp; longer treatments abate germinating power;
-
ultra-violet light stimulates, the germinating energy of grains born from subjects treated no longer than 120 hours; treatments during 120–240 hours don't notably modify it; treatments of over 240 hours reduce it very much;

according to the conditions in which this work has been done, a 10 days-irradiation seems to be, under every point of view, for the best. A 71/2 — days irradiation seems to be insufficient, a 121/2 — days one excessive, and hence prejudicial;
-
glumes are strong screening-organ for ultra-violet light;
-
ultra-violet light gives late appearing effects.

Allochthonous inputs, particularly in terms of external nutrient loading, have been relatively well-studied in recent years, but little is known of autochthonous nutrient inputs, despite numerous observations that nutrient regeneration is likely to be substantial in African lakes.
-
The rôle of microbial processes in nutrient cycling in African lakes is almost totally unknown, except in relation to nitrification and denitrification.
-
Recent studies have begun to examine the kinetics of the uptake of phosphorus by algae in African lakes; nitrogen uptake, other than nitrification, and nutrient release have only rarely been examined.
-
Nutrient uptake and release by aquatic macrophytes is reasonably well known, especially in the ‘nuisance’ weed species.
-
The role of zooplankton, zoobenthos and fish in nutrient cycling in African lakes has largely been ignored.
-
A great deal of study has been devoted to the rôle of abiotic process, particularly at the sediment-water interface, in the nutrient dynamics of African lakes.

The influence of soil mineralogy of herbicide sulfentrazone retention was evaluated.
Canavalia ensiformis and Crotalaria juncea were evaluated as phytoremediation plants.
Kaolinite soils presented great movement of sulfentrazone in the soil.
Natural attenuation is more efficient in oxide soils than phytoremediation.
