The aim of this work was to study the stabilization of the activity of two commercial microbial phytases (Aspergillus niger and Escherichia coli) after immobilization on nanoclays and to establish optimal conditions for their immobilization. Synthetic allophane, synthetic iron-coated allophanes and natural montmorillonite were chosen as solid supports for phytase immobilization. Phytase immobilization patterns at different pH values were strongly dependent on both enzyme and support characteristics. After immobilization, the residual activity of both phytases was higher under acidic conditions. Immobilization of phytases increased their thermal stability and improved resistance to proteolysis, particularly on iron-coated allophane (6% iron oxide), which showed activation energy (E(a)) and activation enthalpy (ΔH(#)) similar to free enzymes. Montmorillonite as well as allophanic synthetic compounds resulted in a good support for immobilization of E. coli phytase, but caused a severe reduction of A. niger phytase activity. 相似文献

Hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 (HT1) is the most severe metabolic disease associated with tyrosine catabolism. An accumulation of toxic metabolites seems responsible for the pathology of HT1. The metabolite fumarylacetoacetate, accumulating due to a deficiency in fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase, displays apoptogenic, mutagenic, aneugenic and mitogenic activities. These effects may underlie the tumorigenic phenomenon observed in HT1. Fumarylacetoacetate in addition to causing disturbances in Ca2+ homeostasis, may induce endoplasmic reticulum stress. 相似文献

The physiopathology of Chagas' disease has been largely defined in murine infections with virulent strains which partially represent parasite diversity. This report reviews our studies with Sylvio X10/4 parasites, a Trypanosoma cruzi clone that induces no acute phase but in C3H/He mice leads to chronic myocarditis resembling the human disease. 相似文献

This paper considers the use of hybrid models to represent the dynamic behaviour of biotechnological processes. Each hybrid model consists of a set of non linear differential equations and a neural model. The set of differential equations attempts to describe as much as possible the phenomenology of the process whereas neural networks model predict some key parameters that are an essential part of the phenomenological model. The neural model is obtained indirectly, that is, using the prediction errors of one or more state variables to adjust its weights instead of successive presentations of input-output data of the neural network. This approach allows to use actual measurements to derive a suitable neural model that not only represents the variation of some key parameters but it is also able to partly include dynamic behaviour unaccounted for by the phenomenological model. The approach is described in detail using three test cases: (1) the fermentation of glucose to gluconic acid by the micro-organism Pseudomonas ovalis, (2) the growth of filamentous fungi in a solid state fermenter, and (3) the propagation of filamentous fungi growing on a 2-D solid substrate. Results for the three applications clearly demon- strate that using a hybrid model is a viable alternative for modelling complex biotechnological bioprocesses. 相似文献

Summary Plants of European chestnut (Castanea sativa) have been consistently recovered from cryopreserved in vitro-grown shoot apices by using the vitrification procedure. Factors found to influence the success of cryopreservation include
the source of the shoot tips (terminal buds or axillary buds), their size, the duration of exposure to the cryoprotectant
solution, and the composition of the post-cryostorage recovery medium. The most efficient protocol for shoot regrowth employed
0.5–1.0 mm shoot tips isolated from 1 cm-long terminal buds that had been excised from 3–5-wk shoot cultures and cold hardened
at 4°C for 2 wk. The isolated shoot tips were precultured for 2d at 4°C on solidified Gresshoff and Doy medium (GD) supplemented
with 0.2M sucrose, and were then treated for 20 min at room temperature with a loading solution (2M glycerol+0.4M sucrose) and for 120 min at 0°C with a modified PVS2 solution before rapid immersion in liquid nitrogen (LN). After 1 d in
LN, rapid rewarming and unloading in 1.2M sucrose solution for 20 min, the shoot tips were plated on recovery medium consisting of GD supplemented with 2.2 μM benzyladenine, 2.9 μM 3-indoleacetic acid, and 0.9 μM zeatin. This protocol achieved 38–54% shoot recovery rates among five chestnut clones (three of juvenile origin and two of
mature origin), and in all cases plant regeneration was also obtained. 相似文献

We studied the natural infection of Lutzomyia (Lutzomyia) sp. with Leishmania in endemic foci of cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Paria peninsula, state of Sucre, Venezuela. Sand flies were collected between March 2001 and June 2003, using Shannon light-traps and human bait. Of the 1291 insects captured, only two species of phlebotomines were identified: L. ovallesi (82.75%) and L. gomezi (17.42%). A sample of the collected sand flies (51 pools of 2-12 individuals) were analyzed by using a multiplex-PCR assay for simultaneous detection of New Word Leishmaniaand Viannia subgenera. The results showed a total of 8 pools (15.68%) infected; of these, 7 were L. ovallesi naturally infected with L. braziliensis (2 pools) and L. mexicana (5 pools) and 1 pool of L. gomezi infected by L. braziliensis. 相似文献

In the present article we investigated the properties of CA1 and dentate gyrus cell precursors in adult rodents both in vivo and in vitro. Cell proliferation in situ was investigated by rating the number of cells incorporating BrdU after kainate-induced seizures. CA1 precursors displayed a greater proliferation capacity than dentate gyrus precursors. The majority of BrdU-labeled cells in CA1 expressed Nestin and Mash-1, two markers of neural precursors. BrdU-positive cells in the dentate gyrus expressed Nestin, but only a few expressed Mash-1. In animals pretreated with the antimitotic azacytidine, the capacity of kainate to enhance the proliferation was higher in CA1 than in the dentate gyrus. Differences in intrinsic progenitor cell activity could underlie these different expansion capacities. Thus, we compared the renewal- expansion and multipotency of dentate gyrus and CA1 precursors isolated in vitro. We found that the dissected CA1 region, including the periventricular zone, is enriched in neurosphere-forming cells (presumed stem cells), which respond to either EGF or FGF-2. Dentate gyrus contains fewer neurosphere-forming cells and none that respond to FGF-2 alone. Neurospheres generated from CA1 were multipotent and produced neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes, while dentate gyrus neurospheres mostly produced glial cells. The analysis of the effects of EGF on organotypic cultures of hippocampal slices depicted similar features: BrdU and Nestin immunoreactivities increased after EGF treatment in CA1 but not in the dentate gyrus. These results suggest that CA1 precursors are more stem-cell-like than granule cell precursors, which may represent a more restricted precursor cell. 相似文献
