extraction and acetylation of purified trypsin from bovin pancreas and study of some its physico-chemical properties

آنزیم تریپسین در شرایط قلیایی ناپایدار می باشد .و فعالیت پروتئولیتیکی تریپسین منجربه خود هضمی آن در جایگاههای خاصی می گردد. بنابر این آنزیمی با ناپایداری بالا محسوب میگردد. در سالهای اخیر موفق شدند که با ایجاد تغیرات شیمیایی با اضافه کردن فلزات خاص ، کلسیم و یا عمل استیلاسیون منجر به افزایش پایداری آنزیم تریپسین گردند. مطالعات در حال حاضر نشان می دهد که تریپسین استیله شده فعالیت آنزیمی خود را ...

Conceptual and numerical models of the evolution of pedogenic carbonates in soils of arid and semi-arid regions: A review

Introduction Calcareous soils are widely distributed in arid and semi-arid regions of the world and the presence of carbonates in the soils affects both physicochemical properties and the pedogenic evolution. In addition, soil carbon plays a critical role in the global carbon cycle, and pedogenic carbonates are an important sink for atmospheric carbon. Pedogenic carbonates are also the proxy o...

Potential of OM of Iranian peat and swamp and characterization of physico-chemical properties of organic soils

The objective of this work was to investigate the potential of three different kinds of Iranian peat and swamp soils as sources of organic matter (OM) in the Golestan Province, Northern Iran. Comparison of the peats was done in terms of the degree of humification on the von Post scale. Moreover, the X-ray fluorescence, X-Ray Diffractometry, and Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) techniques wer...

Understanding and Quantifying the Physico-chemical Behavior of Complex Systems

Many physico-chemical processes such as nucleation events in phase transitions, chemical reactions, conformational changes of biomolecules, and protein folding are activated processes that involve rare transitions between stable or metastable states in the free energy surface. Understanding the underlyingmechanism and computing the rates associated with such processes is a central to many appli...
