This review focuses on the key aspects of lipases. Lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) are triacylglycerol acylhydrolases that act on carboxylic ester bonds. They breakdown triacylglycerides into glycerides (diglycerides or monoglycerides), fatty acids and glycerol. Their mass ranges from 19 kDa for B. stratosphericus to 92 kDa for P. gessardii. Their optimum temperature and pH ranges from 15 °C to 80 °C for Acinetobacter...
Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is one of the promising fuel cell technologies. MFCs offer a breakthrough for the treatment of wastewater coupled with energy generation. However, their applications are mostly limited to laboratories. Present research is focused on conducting the biological treatment of wastewater originated from fermentation industry using microbial fuel cell (MFC) through the microbes...
The focus of current research study was to evaluate the influence of the seed extract of Citrullus lanatus on urea, creatinine, potassium, sodium, chloride and bicarbonate in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Eighteen male wistar albino rats were divided into six groups of three rats each, diabetes were induced in all the rats except group 1 by intra-peritoneal injection of 45 mg/kg b.wt. of streptozotocin...
