Synthesis and properties of anionic cellulose ethers: influence of functional groups and molecular weight on flowability of concrete

The suitability of anionic cellulose ethers as superplasticizers and the effect of chemical structure on the fluidity of cement mixtures was investigated. To elucidate the influence of molecular weight and degree of cellulose backbone substitution, cellulose and hydroxyethyl cellulose with molecular weights <50,000 g/mol were synthesized by acid-catalyzed and oxidative degradation. Commercial as well as degraded samples were functionalized by carboxymethylation and sulfobutylation, controlling the degree of substitution (DS) by the molar ratio of reactants and by taking advantage of the high reactivity of sultones towards salts of carboxylic acids, even in aqueous solutions. The fluidizing effect of the cellulose ethers with anionic ‘cement-anchoring‘ groups was prescreened, measuring the static flow of cement pastes. The results indicated a high potential of sulfobutylated cellulose mixed ethers as dispersing agents for concrete. The fluidizing action increased with increasing DS and an optimum range of molecular weight between 100,000 and 150,000 g/mol was found.

Transgenic tobacco cell cultures expressing a Trichoderma harzianum endochitinase gene release the enzyme into the medium

 Calli and cell suspensions were obtained from tobacco plants transformed with an endochitinase-encoding cDNA from the biocontrol fungus Trichoderma harzianum. Calli from four primary transformants had high levels of endochitinase activity, like the plants from which they were derived. Endochitinase activity was also detected in the medium surrounding the calli and in the medium from transgenic cell suspensions. Western blots demonstrated the presence of the expected 40-kDa T. harzianum protein in transgenic samples but not in controls. These results indicate that the fungal enzyme is secreted and that the fungal signal peptide in the cDNA construct functions in plant cells. A cell suspension medium in which the protein concentration was increased up to 34-fold by ammonium sulfate precipitation inhibited germination of Penicillium digitatum spores. Some inhibition of spore germination was also observed in concentrated medium from control suspensions, probably due to the secretion and concentration of endogenous enzymes.

Development and improvement of a serum-free suspension process for the production of recombinant adenoviral vectors using HEK293 cells

Human Embryonic Kidney 293 (HEK293) cells were adapted into a serum-free suspension medium through steps of gradual serum weaning for the production of adenoviral (AdV) gene therapy vectors. The presence of sodium heparin in the medium formulation reduced cell clumping dramatically in suspension culture. The adapted cells were ready to grow either in serum-containing medium as an attached culture or in serum-free medium in suspension culture. A scalable production process was developed in shake flasks and was then evaluated in stirred tank bioreactors. This process includes a growth phase in batch-mode followed by a production phase involving medium perfusion and supplementation. Fortification with calcium chloride post viral inoculation resulted in an increase in virus production by at least one fold. Addition of stimulating agents such as sodium butyrate, N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO), or ethyl alcohol post infection was shown to further improve virus production in a dose-dependent manner. The serum-free suspension process described here should be suitable for the manufacturing of other E1-deleted AdV vectors and could potentially be used for the production of recombinant proteins by HEK293 cells. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A highly thermostable,alkaline CMCase produced by a newly isolated Bacillus sp. VG1

An extracellular, highly thermostable and alkaline CMCase was purified from Bacillus sp. VG1 using ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. Enzyme was optimally produced in a medium containing 1.0% CMC and 0.5% tryptone. The purified CMCase had a pH optimum of 9–10 and a half life of 12 min even at 100 °C. The enzyme activity was reduced by Hg²⁺ and stimulated by Co²⁺, Na⁺ and K⁺. Various detergents and proteinases moderately inhibited the CMCase activity. The molecular weight studies showed a single band on SDS–PAGE.

Eichhornia crassipes-based tertiary treatment of Kraft pulp mill effluents in Chilean Central Region

This paper presents experimental results on the implementation of Eichhornia crassipes–based tertiary lagoon to treat effluents generated by a 300 ton d^–1 Kraft pulp mill in Chile. Results show that E. crassipes rapidly adapted to the tertiary lagoon conditions. Active growth was maintained even during a cold winter, protected by the wastewater heat content. A 1000 m² seeding area extended to 2300–6200 m² after a month of growth, with a monthly harvested biomass and nitrogen uptake were 1.1–5.4 ton (dry wt.), and 18–127 kg N, respectively. E. crassipes growth was adequately described by a first order model, with an estimated rate constant ca. 0.03 d^–1 and 0.06 d^–1, for winter and summer seasons, respectively. A management strategy based on such model, to account for seasonal variations in growth rate while keeping a constant nitrogen uptake capacity, is proposed here.
