During an antibiotic screening programme, a new biologically active complex was isolated from an unidentified Streptomyces, strain Ac6 5691}, which was obtained from a garden soil in Calcutta, India. This antibiotic complex was found to contain two water-soluble active fractions of which the major one was designated as boseimycin. This commuication describes the isolation, purification and char...

Summary of cyclotron production methods of Pu (45,2 d), Y (106,65 d) and Sr (64,84 d) tracers via nuclear reactions with protons and alphas on U, Sr and Rb targets in wide energy range is given. Chemical methods of separation and purification of the tracers from the irradiated uranium, strontium and rubidium targets are described. The tracers were used for determination of Pu (239 – 240), Sr-90...

isolated. from a soil sample produces a very high amount of endo-fi-IVLacetylglucosaminidase (endo-6-GlcNAcase) in the culture fluid. We identified the bacterium as rvavobacterium sp., and reported the purification and properties of the endo-fi-GlcNAcase.i) Here we report that the carbohydrate moieties of glycoenzymes may protect them against proteolysis. The term glycoenzyme has been used fbr ...

background and objectives: proline dehydrogenase (prodh; 1.5.99.8) plays an important role in specific determination of plasma proline level in biosensor and diagnostic kits. the goal of this research was to isolate and characterize prodh enzyme from iranian soil microorganisms. materials and methods : screening of l-proline degradative enzymes from soil samples was carried out employing enrich...

soil reduces the hazardous effects of compounds on the components of ecosystem because of self –purification property and the ability for their fixation. playing such a role in soils under redox conditions is performed by pedogenic fe-mn concentrations. in order to investigate cobalt, copper and lead accumulation in iron and manganese concentrations, at first the concentrations were precisely s...

The main purpose of this research is studying the possibility of bioremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contaminated soils in Iran’s tar refinery area located in Isfahan. For many years a great quantity of tar produced by neighboring metallurgical plant has been stored in lagoons as natural reservoirs, causing the contamination of soil in this area. Microorganisms capable of ...

The soil bacterium and potential biothreat agent Burkholderia pseudomallei causes the infectious disease melioidosis, which is naturally acquired through environmental contact with the bacterium. Environmental detection of B. pseudomallei represents the basis for the development of a geographical risk map for humans and livestock. The aim of the present study was to develop a highly sensitive, ...
