Degumming is the dominant method for insolating lignocellulosic fibers in textile applications. Traditional alkaline degumming (TAL), as a common method, requires a high-concentration alkali and has been a severe challenge to the environment. In the research reported here, the possibility of innovative jute degumming by organic solvents 1-2 propylene glycol and a combination of additive green oxygen (GO-OS) was studied. The results revealed that fibers could be extracted by this system (under condition of 0.9% GO-OS, 180°C, 120 min), and obtained fibers with higher breaking tenacity (7.1 cN/dtex), yield (65.7%), breaking elongation (2.87%) and residual gum (11.7%), which all meet the requirement of the relevant Chinese Textile National Standards. Notably, the required reaction time (120 min) of the GO-OS system was 180 min shorter than that of the TAL method. Furthermore, the modifications introduced by the degumming effect on physicochemical aspects were characterized and confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. This study provides a promising degumming method for separating jute lignocellulose without acid and alkali consumption.

Bifidobacteria represent the largest group of human intes nal bacteria. They have an important place in human health and represent the dominant group of micro ora. For this reason, they are key members of the human gut microbiota, particularly during the first one to two years following birth. The aim of this study was to test the sensibility of Bifidobacterium isolated from some strains at different concentrations of salinity and high concentration of bile as a criterion to select probiotic strains. Following the behavior of strains of Bifidobacteria isolated from different ecosystems was considered in order to develop the therapeu c aliment food . Samples from newborn infants aged 3 months, bee intestine, fermented commercial milk and yoghurt of bifidus containing Bifidobacteria was used and the isolated strains belonged to -breve and -longum species. The results of resisitance of our species of Bifidobacteria demonstrated a total inibition of croissance at 5.5% of NaCl but in 5% media of NaCl we observed a moderate croissance at di erent me of kinetics croissance .

Constitutional Analysis

The chemical examination of the alkaloids of Corydalis aurea has shown an unusual complexity and of the total of more than ten alkaloids thus far isolated only six are now described. The record deals chiefly with the stems and leaves of the plant in which protopine was present in exceptionally low concentration (0.025%). Equally exceptional is its high concentration m the roots (1.6%). l-Tetrahydropalmatine constituted the largest fraction of the remaining alkaloids, and its present isolation is the first on record although the d-form was previously known. Two new and well-characterized alkaloids, which have been named capaurine and capauridine, respectively, are isomeric and are best represented by the empirical formula C21H27O5N. Both contain one phenolic hydroxyl and four methoxyl groups, and yield on methylation non-phenolic bases which do not appear to be identical. The presence of two bases, bicuculline and bicucine, which were first recorded in this series of papers, has again been demonstrated.The constitutional analysis of the new bases, as well as the isolation and characterization of the minor alkaloids, is in progress.In an appended note it is shown that bicuculline and bicucine are closely related and interconvertible. The latter is the free γ-hydroxy acid of which the former is the lactone.

ABSTRACT Expression of the nickel-specific transport system encoded by theEscherichia coli nikABCDE operon is repressed by a high concentration of nickel. By using random transposon Tn10 insertion, we isolated mutants in which expression of the nik operon became constitutive with respect to nickel. We have identified the corresponding nikR gene which encodes a nickel-responsive regulator. Expression of nikRwas partially controlled by Fnr through transcription from thenikA promoter region. In addition, a specific transcription start site for the constitutive expression of nikR was found 51 bp upstream of the nikR gene.

Abstract Background: Staphylococcus aureus was a widespread of Gram-positive pathogen bacteria which causes a wide range of symptoms. Bacteria biofilm was the multicellular community of microorganisms that attached to non-biological and biological surfaces. Method: Here, we aimed to isolation and characterization of S. aureus phage and research its bactericidal activity that individually or collaborative with streptomycin.Results: In this study, virulent phage WX was isolated from slaughter house in Jiangsu, China. It’s belonged to the Siphoviridae family and optimal growth temperature was 37 ℃, the pH of optimal preservation buffer was 6~7, optimal multiplicity of infection (MOI) was 0.01 and the genome size was 141, 342 bp. Phage WX has can sterilize most clinical strains of S. aureus which was isolated from clinical patients in the first people's hospital of Yunnan province laboratory. Streptomycin has better anti-biofilm effect than phage WX in low concentration culture of bacteria, nonetheless, phage WX has better anti-biofilm effect than streptomycin in high concentration culture of bacteria. Collaboration of phage WX and streptomycin have better anti-biofilm effect than alone of WX or streptomycin in low concentration culture of bacteria and phage WX have better anti-biofilm effect than streptomycin in high concentration culture of bacteria. Conclusion: The data of this study provided a strong evidence of application phage for reduce the growth of S. aureus biofilm, this study was important for clinic and replace antibiotics in some extent.
