Aspergillus niger TF05 was applied to decolorize Rose Bengal dye. The effects of carbon source, nitrogen source, metal ion and spore concentration on Rose Bengal treatment with A. niger TF05 were studied. A Plackett–Burman design (PBD) and a uniform design (UD) were used to optimize the decolorization conditions of A. niger TF05 and enhance its decolorization effect. The mechanism of Rose Bengal decolorization by A. niger TF05 was examined by analysing degradation products via UV–visible light spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy and GC-MS. The best decolorization effect was achieved in the single factor test with glucose and ammonium chloride as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. Mg2+ was an essential ion that could improve the mould ball state and adsorption efficiency if the spore concentration was maintained at 106 spores ml–1. The optimal decolorization conditions obtained using the PBD and UD methods were 11.5 g l−1 glucose, 6.5 g l−1 ammonium chloride, 0.4 g l−1 magnesium sulphate, pH 5.8, 28 °C, 140 r.p.m. rotational speed, 0.18 g l−1 dye concentration, 0.5 ml of inocula and 120 h decolorization time. Under these conditions, the maximum decolorization rate was 106%. Spectral analysis suggested that the absorption peak of the product changed clearly after decolorization; GC-MS analysis revealed that the intermediate product tetrachlorophthalic anhydride formed after decolorization. The combined use of the PBD and UD methods can optimize multi-factor experiments. A. niger TF05 decolorized Rose Bengal during intracellular enzymatic degradation after adsorption.

We proposed an experimental design of a microbial bioassay of dichotomous response (positive or negative) using Bacillus subtilis BGA for the detection of sulfonamide residues. In the first stage, the bioassay response time was reduced to 6 h by increasing the spore concentration of B. subtilis. Then, the effects of spore, indicator, trimethoprim (TMP) concentration, and volume of the culture medium were examined with a Plackett Burman design (2<sup>4-1</sup>). Finally, the effect of TMP concentration on the method detection capabilities and specificity was analysed using a logistic model with interaction. The detection capabilities of sulfonamides in milk are close to the MRLs when using 500 mg/l of TMP in the culture medium of the bioassay. It is concluded that the experimental design techniques and a logistic regression model can be used to design successfully a dichotomous response bioassay.

Protein Functions

Aim: Proteins are sensitive biomarkers of human diease condition associated with oxidative stress. Alteration of protein structures by oxidants may result in partial or complete loss of protein functions. We have investigated the effect of structural modifications induced by metal ion catalyzed oxidation of fibrinogen on its binding capacity to glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GpIIb/IIIa) and human platelets. Methods: We identified and quantified of binding capacity of native and oxidized fibrinogen to its receptor in vitro by flow cytometer. Dityrosine formation on oxidized fibrinogen were detected spectrophotometrically. Elevated degradation products of fibrinogen after oxidation were revealed in the HPLC analysis. The native and oxidized fibrinogen were analyzed on mass spectrum upon digestion with tyripsin. Results: Oxidatively modified fibrinogen showed less binding activity than native fibrinogen to GpIIb/IIIa coated micro beads and human platelets whereas slightly higher binding capaticity to ADP induced stimulated platelets. Formation of dityrosines in the amino acid side chains of fibrinogen were observed upon oxidation. Decreased binding capacity of oxidized fibrinogen correlated with intensities of dityrosine formation. Oxidized fibrinogen had more ion-mass intensities at higher than native fibrinogen. Clinical implications: Important point is decreased of binding capacity of the oxidized fibrinogen to own receptor. The decreased rate of binding, leading to effect in the diseases of clot formation may acount for the association between oxidation of fibrinogen and the incidence of effect in human diseases.

Pectinase activity among twelve different fungal strains, Aspergillus niger IM09 was identified as a potential one to produce maximal level 831 U/g at pH 4.0. Media composition, incubation temperature, incubation time, substrate concentration, aeration, inoculum size, assay temperature and nitrogen sources were found to effect pectinase activity. Moisture content did not affect the activity significantly. Media composition was varied to optimize the enzyme production in solid state fermentation. It was observed that the highest pectinase activity of 831.0 U/g was found to produce in presence of yeast extract as a nitrogen source in combination with ammonium sulfate in assay media. Aeration showed positive significant effects on pectinase production 755 U/g at 1000 ml flasks. The highest pectinase production was found at 2 g pectin (521 U/g) used as a substrate. Pectinolytic activity was found to have undergone catabolite repression with higher pectin concentration (205 U/g at 5 g pectin). The incubation period to achieve maximum pectinase activity by the isolated strain Aspergillus niger IM09 was 3 days, which is suitable from the commercial point of view.

MgFe2O4 nanoferrites were synthesized by sol-gel and solution combustion synthesis (SCS) methods through green and chemical methods. Green and chemical methods for sol-gel were processed with use of lemon extract and citric acid, respectively. A green and chemical method for solution combustion synthesis was followed by using Phyllanthus acidus leaf extract and urea, respectively. The influence of synthesis approach on the behaviour of prepared nanoferrites were studied using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV visible spectroscopy, vast variation in particle size, crystallinity, electrochemical and photocatalytic activity of the nanoferrites synthesized by various methods were witnessed. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) result of prepared nanoferrites acquired by green and chemical approaches clarified phase structure as spinel and the crystalline size found to be around 11-24 nm. The spinel surface morphology was witnessed for the synthesized nanoferrites. The tetrahedral and octahedral sites of the prepared nanoferrites were confirmed by FTIR spectra. MgFe2O4 nanoferrites synthesized by green sol-gel approach exposed superior electrochemical activity by possessing very less charge transfer resistance. The results of EIS were correlated with the photocatalytic degradation of Rose Bengal dye. Photocatalytic property of the prepared nanoferrites was examined for photodegradation of Rose Bengal dye under UV-light.

AbstractThe heterotrophic cultivation of microalgae has a number of notable advantages, which include allowing high culture density levels as well as enabling the production of biomass in consistent and predictable quantities. In this study, the full potential of Chlorella sp. HS2 is explored through optimization of the parameters for its heterotrophic cultivation. First, carbon and nitrogen sources were screened in PhotobioBox. Initial screening using the Plackett-Burman design (PBD) was then adopted and the concentrations of the major nutrients (glucose, sodium nitrate, and dipotassium phosphate) were optimized via response surface methodology (RSM) with a central composite design (CCD). Upon validation of the model via flask-scale cultivation, the optimized BG11 medium was found to result in a three-fold improvement in biomass amounts, from 5.85 to 18.13 g/L, in comparison to a non-optimized BG11 medium containing 72 g/L glucose. Scaling up the cultivation to a 5-L fermenter resulted in a greatly improved biomass concentration of 35.3 g/L owing to more efficient oxygenation of the culture. In addition, phosphorus feeding fermentation was employed in an effort to address early depletion of phosphate, and a maximum biomass concentration of 42.95 g/L was achieved, with biomass productivity of 5.37 g/L/D.
