Isolation and Characterization of Cellulase Roducing Bacteria from Termite Gut
Lignocelluloses are the most abundant organic compound in the nature. The cellulosic waste can be used as a potential source of Bio-energy. For the conversion of cellulosic waste to a fuel source, the complex structure of cellulose has to be broken and the glucose monomers obtained can be fermented to bio-ethanol the methods present today are chemicals and enzymatic method. Chemicals methods ar...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of aromatics-degrading microorganisms from the gut of the lower termite Coptotermes formosanus.
We isolated aromatics-degrading bacteria from the gut of a lower termite, Coptotermes formosanus, using a mineral salt medium containing various aromatic compounds as the sole carbon source. Two species, Burkholderia sp. strain VE22 and Citrobacter sp. strain VA53, were isolated by aerobic enrichment culture with veratraldehyde and vanillin, respectively. Strain VA53 could also grow and metabol...
متن کاملMolecular Signatures of Nicotinoid-Pathogen Synergy in the Termite Gut
Previous studies in lower termites revealed unexpected synergies between nicotinoid insecticides and fungal entomopathogens. The present study investigated molecular mechanisms of nicotinoid-pathogen synergy in the lower termite Reticulitermes flavipes, using the nicotinoid, imidacloprid, in combination with fungal and bacterial entomopathogens. Particular focus was placed on metatranscriptome ...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of the microflora of nixtamalized corn masa.
Corn tortillas are a staple in the diet among the Mexican population, and are traditionally produced through a process known as nixtamalization. This traditional process involves steeping whole-kernel corn in an alkaline solution overnight and then grinding the corn into dough (masa), which is then baked. While the masa is held before baking, significant microbial change can occur which leads t...
متن کاملExtracellular Cholesterol Oxidase from Rhodococcus sp.: Isolation and Molecular Characterization
Background: Cholesterol oxidase (CHO) has various clinical and industrial applications. Recently, microbial CHO have received a great attention for their wide usage in medicine. Here, taxonomic characterizations of isolated strain from soil, optimization of the conditions for CHO production and biochemical characterizations of produced CHO enzyme were described. Finally, CHO gene was cloned int...
