Removal of Alizarin Yellow and Murexide Dyes from Water Using Formalin Treated Pisum sativum Peels

DNA methylase from Pisum sativum.

DNA methylase activity was detected in nuclei from pea shoots. The enzyme can only be extracted by low-salt treatment if the nuclei are pretreated with micrococcal nuclease. Only a single enzyme was detected, and it was purified to a specific activity of 1620 units/mg of protein. It has an Mr of 160,000 on gel filtration and SDS/PAGE. Pea DNA methylase methylates cytosine in all four dinucleoti...

Removal of pollutant heterocyclic dyes from water with ZnO adsorbent

In this study, Copper oxide as a good and inexpensive adsorbent has been introduced and used for the removal of erythrosine and red carmoisine dyes from several water solutions successfully. The effect of various parameters such as pH, dye concentration, amount of adsorbent, contact time and temperature on removal processing was investigated. Adsorption isothermal data could be interpreted by t...

REMOVAL OF ORGANIC DYES FROM CONTAMINATED WATER USING COFE2O4 /REDUCED GRAPHENE OXIDE NANOCOMPOSITE

Up to now, lots of materials such as active carbon, iron, manganese, zirconium, and metal oxides have been widely used for removal of dyes from contaminated water. Among these, ferrite nanoparticle is an interesting magnetic material due to its moderate saturation magnetization, excellent chemical stability and mechanical hardness. Graphene, a new class of 2D carbonaceous material with atom thi...

Altered Cell Microfibrillar Orientation in Ethylene-treated Pisum sativum Stems.

Anti -Hcv Lectin from Egyptian Pisum sativum

Lectins are carbohydrate binding proteins expressed in plants, animals and microorganisms and have been used to probe the surface properties of a wide range of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The implication of some lectin molecules in several physiological processes has been claimed. The aim of this work is to purify the lectin from Egyptian pea (Pisum sativum) seeds and study its biochemica...
