We studied the reactivity of 2-ethylsulfonyl-7-methyl-5H-l,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one (TPSO2-2) with some amino acids, SH, OH, and histidine enzymes. TPSO2-2 reacted with L-cysteine in high yield (80 ~ 90%), but with glycine and L-serine in low yield (below 10%). To clarify the relative reactivity of TPSO2-2, its reaction with L-cysteine in the presence of ethanol and diethylamine was examined. TPSO2-2 reacted only with the SH group of L-cysteine, not with ethanol nor diethylamine. To elucidate the reactivity of TPSO2-2 toward enzymes, the inhibitory effects of TPSO2-2 on some enzymes containing cysteine, serine, or histidine in the active center were investigated. TPSO2-2 showed high inhibitory effects on SH enzymes, such as yeast alcohol dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase, and hexokinase, but no effect on trypsin, which has serine, or catalase, with histidine in the active center. TPSO2-2 appeared to be a specific inhibitor of SH enzymes.  相似文献

The antibacterial activity of aqueous solutions of paraformaldehyde in concentrations from 0.1 to 0.4% (w/v) is bacteriostatic rather than bactericidal in the presence or absence of ammonium chloride. The presence of ammonium chloride significantly lengthened the time of exposure to paraformaldehyde necessary for inhibition of growth of the test organism (Staphylococcus aureus FDA 209) when unbuffered solutions were used. Elevation of the pH of the reacting mixture of paraformaldehyde and ammonium chloride by partial buffering lengthened the time of exposure necessary for inhibition of growth of the test organism. Decrease of antibacterial activity was concomitant with the disappearance of paraformaldehyde from the reacting mixture. The reaction of paraformaldehyde with ammonium chloride was rapid at room temperature (25 C) and at pH levels near neutrality. The fate of the reacting paraformaldehyde, including the possibility of the formation of hexamethylenetetramine or methylenimine, is discussed with particular reference to loss of antibacterial activity.  相似文献

There are more than 80% embryoids among the induced masses in anther culture; different ammonium salts produced different effects on the formation of embryoids, and the effect of NH4H2PO4 is better than the others, within the range of the concentrations used. When the combinations of KNO3 With NH4H2PO4 act as the nitrogen source the frequencies of formation of embryoids and calli increase with the increase of NO3–/NH4+ ratio, at NO3–/NH4+ = 6:1, the frequency is the highest, but at 8:1, it decreases. In the treatments of lower total nitrogen (22.5–37.5 mN/L), the induction frequency is higher (3%–12%) than those of higher total nitrogen (45–60 mN/L). It has also been discussed that the different materials responded to the same ammonium salt, that the same material responded to different NO3–/NH4+ ratio.  相似文献

The Assimilation of Nitrogen from Ammonium Salts and Nitrate by Fungi   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
  1. The assimilation of inorganic nitrogen by Scopulariopsis brevicaulisand some physiologically similar species has been studied. Theirfailure to assimilate completely from ammonium sulphate hasbeen shown to be due to the fall in pH of the medium inducedby the initial uptake of ammonia.
  2. Complete assimilation ofammonia takes place in the presenceof the neutral salts ofeach of thirteen organic acids investigated.The organic acidsact primarily through their buffering effectwhich preventsor slows down the fall in pH. They are not specificallyrequiredfor ammonia assimilation by these fungi and can beeffectivelyreplaced by certain inorganic buffers.
  3. The influence of severalexternal factors on the rate of assimilationof ammonia, nitrate,and nitrite has been studied in S. brevicaulis.In correspondingconditions the mycelium assimilates ammoniamore rapidly thannitrate over a wide range of conditions.
  4. Ammonia, even invery low concentration, completely suppressesnitrate assimilationwhen both sources of nitrogen are presenttogether. Nitrite,however, is assimilated simultaneously withammonia. It is thereforeconcluded that ammonia blocks the reductionof nitrate to nitriteby the fungus.
  5. The suppression of nitrate assimilation inthe presence of ammoniais common to many mould fungi besidesS. brevicaulis, and isbelieved to have adaptive significancein natural habitats.
  6. The nitrate-reducing and assimilatingsystem is formed, evenwhen S. brevicaulis is grown in completeabsence of nitrate(ammonia medium with organic acid). It comesinto action rapidlywhen the inhibiting effect of ammonia isremoved. Similarly,nitrate-grown mycelium is capable of assimilatingammonia atmaximal rate without any adaptive lag.

Insoluble quaternary ammonium salts bound to porous glass showed antibacterial activity. An agent designated as G12, which had a dodecyl alkyl chain, was selected for some antibacterial tests on comparison of it with the agent reported previously. The antibacterial activity of G12 toward Escherichia coli was mainly due to the adsorption of cells and therefore gradually decreased during continuous treatment of a cell suspension. The lost G12 activity was completely recovered by washing with ethanol, and the activity of refreshed G12 decreased in the same manner as that of fresh G12. The lost activity was, however, always recovered only by ethanol treatment. This indicated that G12 might interact with cells more strongly by means of a hydrophobic force than an electrostatic one. The antimicrobial spectrum showed that G12 was effective against not only bacteria but also yeasts.  相似文献

Biochar produced by pyrolysis of biomass can be used to counter nitrogen (N) pollution. The present study investigated the effects of feedstock and temperature on characteristics of biochars and their adsorption ability for ammonium N (NH4 +-N) and nitrate N (NO3 -N). Twelve biochars were produced from wheat-straw (W-BC), corn-straw (C-BC) and peanut-shell (P-BC) at pyrolysis temperatures of 400, 500, 600 and 700°C. Biochar physical and chemical properties were determined and the biochars were used for N sorption experiments. The results showed that biochar yield and contents of N, hydrogen and oxygen decreased as pyrolysis temperature increased from 400°C to 700°C, whereas contents of ash, pH and carbon increased with greater pyrolysis temperature. All biochars could sorb substantial amounts of NH4 +-N, and the sorption characteristics were well fitted to the Freundlich isotherm model. The ability of biochars to adsorb NH4 +-N followed: C-BC>P-BC>W-BC, and the adsorption amount decreased with higher pyrolysis temperature. The ability of C-BC to sorb NH4 +-N was the highest because it had the largest cation exchange capacity (CEC) among all biochars (e.g., C-BC400 with a CEC of 38.3 cmol kg−1 adsorbed 2.3 mg NH4 +-N g−1 in solutions with 50 mg NH4 + L−1). Compared with NH4 +-N, none of NO3 -N was adsorbed to biochars at different NO3 concentrations. Instead, some NO3 -N was even released from the biochar materials. We conclude that biochars can be used under conditions where NH4 +-N (or NH3) pollution is a concern, but further research is needed in terms of applying biochars to reduce NO3 -N pollution.  相似文献

Lignocellulosic feedstocks are utilized for the production of fuel ethanol and butanol through dilute acid/enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. Hydrolysis residue, a major by-product of biomass hydrolysis, is rich in recalcitrant carbon as majority of cellulosic and hemicellulosic components are released during pretreatment. With the intention of their effective utilization, hydrolysis residues from forestry (pinewood), energy crop system (timothy grass), and agriculture (wheat straw) were pyrolysed in a fixed-bed reactor at 600 °C with slow heating rate of 5 °C/min for 4 h. In order to understand the product (biochar, bio-oil, and gases) properties and advocate their energy and environmental values, chemical characterizations such as carbon–hydrogen–nitrogen–sulfur analysis, inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry, pH, electrical conductivity, scanning electron microscopy, porosity analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) were employed. The yield of biochar, bio-oil and gases was 38.9–41.7, 18.6–22.3, and 24.9–28.8 wt%, respectively. The high pH and electrical conductivity of biochars with substantial amounts of Na, Mg, K, and Ca indicated their alkaline and saline nature, which would necessitate proper agronomical soil applications. Variable intensities of C–C, C–H, C–O, O–H, and C–N functional groups were detected in the FTIR spectra of residues, biochars, and bio-oils. Raman spectroscopy showed the development of graphite (1,580–1,610 cm?1) and defect (1,325–1,380 cm?1) carbon structures in biochars. 1H NMR of bio-oils indicated aromatics, olefinics, and aliphatics, whereas 13C NMR indicated carbonyls, aromatics, carbohydrates, alkyls, methoxy, and hydroxy carbon. GC studies of pyrolysis gases identified chiefly H2 and CO with traces of CH4, CO2, and C2+ components.  相似文献

This paper describes the purification of Penicillin G Amidase (EC 3.5.1.11) using quaternary ammonium salts with the aim of increasing the activity of immobilised enzymes prepared from the purified solutions. Two different quaternary ammonium salts were tested with different solutions of the enzyme. It was concluded that the quaternary ammonium salts used selectively precipitated the non-enzymatic protein leaving in solution practically all the enzyme resulting in a high yield of purification. Optimal conditions for purification using the two types of quaternary ammonium salts were determined. Immobilisation studies were performed from various purified enzyme solutions, using different amounts of a quaternary ammonium salt. The immobilised enzymes so obtained showed a much higher activity than the immobilised enzyme obtained from non-purified enzyme solutions.  相似文献

The production of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) by Alcaligenes eutrophus DSM 545 was studied in a synthetic medium with 3% glucose at pH 7.0 supplemented with several ammonium substrates and cane molasses. Growth was measured by dry cell weight, and the PHB content was measured by gas chromatography. The effects of ammonium sources such as sulfate, nitrate, phosphate, and chloride salts and those of different ammonium sulfate concentrations were evaluated. The best growth and PHB production were obtained with ammonium sulfate; however, NH(inf4)(sup+) concentrations between 0.5 and 1.5 g/liter showed no significant difference. Ammonium sulfate was therefore used as the sole source of NH(inf4)(sup+) for experiments with cane molasses as the growth activator. Optimal growth and PHB production were obtained with 0.3% molasses. However, the yields of biomass (39 to 48%) and PHB (17 to 26%) varied significantly among the different ammonium substrates and cane molasses concentrations.  相似文献

The importance of six theoretically calculated molecular parameters in the antigibberellin (retardant) activity of quaternary ammonium salts is studied using a regression analysis. A bioassay system based on cell culture of fungus Gibberella fujikuroi is used to determine the activity. In the case of N,N,N-trimethyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium chloride (choline) and N,N,N-triethyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium chloride (N,N,N-triethylcholine) derivatives with linear structure, the polarizability, proton acceptor activity, and lipophilicity of these compounds exert the largest effect on the antigibberellin activity. The antigibberellin activity of more sterically hindered N,N-dialkylpiperidinium salts was mainly defined by the steric parameter, while the polarizability, proton acceptor activity, and (through them) lipophilicity exert a lesser effect. Other parameters are of minor importance for the three groups of compounds studied.  相似文献

Protein aggregation is a critical problem for biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. Despite the fact that soluble proteins have been used for many applications, our understanding of the effect of the solution chemistry on protein aggregation still remains to be elucidated. This paper investigates the process of thermal aggregation of lysozyme in the presence of various types of salts. The simple law was found; the aggregation rate of lysozyme increased with increasing melting temperature of the protein (T m) governed by chemical characteristics of additional salts. Ammonium salts were, however, ruled out; the aggregation rates of lysozyme in the presence of the ammonium salts were smaller than the ones estimated from T m. Comparing with sodium salts, ammonium salts increased the solubility of the hydrophobic amino acids, indicating that ammonium salts adsorb the hydrophobic region of proteins, which leads to the decrease in aggregation more effectively than sodium salts. The positive relation between aggregation rate and T m was described by another factor such as the surface tension of salt solutions. Fourier transform infrared spectral analysis showed that the thermal aggregates were likely to form β-sheet in solutions that give high molar surface tension increment. These results suggest that protein aggregation is attributed to the surface free energy of the solution.  相似文献

Production of protease by many bacteria was found to be inhibited by ammonium salts, and the enzyme production was more sensitive to the salts than was growth of the organisms. Inhibition of protease production by some pathogenic bacteria may result in the recognition of an exotoxin which otherwise would have been digested by the protease. In the case of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, qualitatively different toxicities could be demonstrated in the culture fluids, depending on the presence or absence of protease in such a fluid. The toxicity of the culture in the presence of a high titer of protease may be due primarily to the protease, whereas the toxicity exhibited in the absence of protease could be due to proteinacious exotoxin. Producers of high titers of protease tended to be less virulent in vivo than producers of low titers of the enzyme, which exert their toxicities by a separate exotoxin.  相似文献

运用15N稳定性同位素示踪技术,对高寒草甸植物和土壤微生物固持沉降氮的能力及沉降氮在小嵩草(Kobresia pygaea)草甸中的运移规律进行了研究.施肥2周后,NO-3-15N和NH+4-15N的总恢复率分别为73.5%和78%.无论是NO-3-15N,还是NH+4-15N,植物所固持的15N总是比土壤有机质或者是土壤微生物固持的多.4周后,70.6%的NO-3-15N和57.4%的NH+4-15N被固持在土壤和植物中.其中,土壤有机质所固持的15N均下降了很多,而植物所固持的15N却变化很小.同前面的结果相比,较多的NO-3-15N为土壤微生物所固持.在施肥6周和8周后,NO-3-15N的总恢复率分别为58.4%和67%,而NH+4-15N的总恢复率分别为43.1%和49%.植物和土壤微生物所固持的NO-3-15N比NH+4-15N多.在整个实验期间,植物固持的NO-3N较多,而且比土壤微生物固持了较多的15N.由于无机氮的含量一直很低,无机氮库所固持的15N一般不超过1%.上述结果意味着短期内植物在高寒草甸中对沉降氮的去向起着决定作用.  相似文献
