چکیده

A spectrophotometric assay of proteolytic enzyme activity is described in which the optical density obtained by a given enzyme preparation is related (2 alpha less than 0.01) to the serological activity of that preparation in a two stage technique. The assay appears to be of use for the standardisation of enzyme preparations for use in blood group serology.

Proteolytic activity and cooperative hemolytic effect of dermatophytes with different species of bacteria

Background and Purpose: Globally, dermatophytes are the most common filamentous group of fungi causing cutaneous mycoses. Dermatophytes were shown to secrete a multitude of enzymes that play a role in their pathogenesis. There is limited data on co-hemolytic (CAMP-like) effect of different bacterial species on dermatophyte species. In this study, we sought to the evaluate exoenzyme activity an...

EFFECT OF CHRONIC LEAD POISONING ON ERYTHROCYTE PROTOPORPHYRIN IN RATS

Research has shown that exposure to lead may have adverse effects at different blood lead concentrations. Lead inhibits at least two enzymes that are essential for the formation of heme, and because of the interaction of lead with these enzymes, no iron is inserted into protoporphyrin. Therefore the concentration of protoporphyrin increases in erythrocytes. The concentration of lead was mea...

اکتینیدین میوه کیوی: خالص‌سازی و بررسی مقدار آن در واریته‌های داخلی

Proteolytic enzymes play important roles in food and drug industries. Actinidin, the most abundant protein of kiwifruit is a cystein protease (EC 3.4.22.14). In the present study, protein contents and levels of actinidin in kiwifruit cultivars were assayed and the enzyme was purified by a simple procedure. Actinidin was purified using two steps: (1)) precipitation by ammonium sulfate and (2) io...
