SummaryA novel reactor recently described for studying phospholipiddependent blood coagulation reactions under flow conditions similar to those occurring in the vasculature has been further charactenzed. The reactor is a capitlary whose inner wall is coated with a stable phospholipid bilayer (or two bilayers) containing tissue factor, a transmembrane protein that is required for the enzymatic activation of factor X by factor VIIa. Perfusion of the capillary at wall shear rates ranging from 25 s−1 to 1,200 s−1 with purified bovine factors X and VIIa led to steady state factor Xa levels at the outlet. Assay were performed using a chromogenic substrate, SpectrozymeTMFXa, or by using a radiometric technique. In the absence of Ca2+ or factor VIIa there was no product formation. No difference was noted in the levels of factor Xa achieved when non-activated factor VII was perfused. Once steady state was achieved further factor Xa production continued in the absence of factor VIIa implying a very strong association of factor VIIa with the tissue factor in the phospholipid membrane. In agreement with static vesicle-type studies the reactor was sensitive to wall tissue factor concentration, temperature and the presence of phosphatidylserine in the bilayer.

This article deals with fast pyrolysis of brown algae, such as Bifurcaria Bifurcata at the range of temperature 300–800 °C in a stainless steel tubular reactor. After a literature review on algae and its importance in renewable sector, a case study was done on pyrolysis of brown algae especially, Bifurcaria Bifurcata. The aim was to experimentally investigate how the temperature, the particle size, the nitrogen flow rate (N2) and the heating rate affect bio-oil, bio-char and gaseous products. These parameters were varied in the ranges of 5–50 °C/min, below 0.2–1 mm and 20–200 mL. min–1, respectively. The maximum bio-oil yield of 41.3wt% was obtained at a pyrolysis temperature of 600 °C, particle size between 0.2–0.5 mm, nitrogen flow rate (N2) of 100 mL. min–1 and heating rate of 5 °C/min. Liquid product obtained under the most suitable and optimal condition was characterized by elemental analysis, 1H-NMR, FT-IR and GC-MS. The analysis of bio-oil showed that bio-oil from Bifurcaria Bifurcata could be a potential source of renewable fuel production and value added chemicals.

We formulated the principles of designing bioluminescent enzyme tests for assessing the quality of complex media which consist in providing the maximum sensitivity to potentially toxic chemicals at a minimal impact of uncontaminated complex media. The developed principles served as a basis for designing a new bioluminescent method for an integrated rapid assessment of chemical safety of fruits and vegetables which is based on using the luminescent bacterium enzymes (NAD(P)H:FMN oxidoreductase and luciferase) as a test system.
