Bioaugmentation is a promising method of the remediation soils polluted by persistent organic pollutants (POP). Unfortunately, it happens frequently that microorganisms inoculated into soil die out due to presence enzymes secreted autochthonous microorganisms. Especially destructive are here phospholipases C (PLC) and lipases which destruct microorganism's cellular membrane. The composition bac...

BACKGROUND Biocatalytic processes often require a full recycling of biocatalysts to optimize economic benefits and minimize waste disposal. Immobilization of biocatalysts onto particulate carriers has been widely explored as an option to meet these requirements. However, surface properties often affect the amount of biocatalysts immobilized, their bioactivity and stability, hampering their wide...

The MicroScan Rapid Yeast Identification (RYI) panel is a 4-h microdilution system for identification of clinical yeastlike isolates. Its accuracy was evaluated by using 357 isolates encompassing 11 genera and 30 species. The RYI panel identifications were compared with those obtained by the API 20C system assisted with morphological characterization on cornmeal-Tween 80 agar. The panels were r...

It is known that the enzyme activities of non-target organisms are influenced in vivo or vitro by pesticides play a major role to obtain higher yields field agriculture. foreseen used for various purposes may negatively affect lipase, an digestive system, non target organisms. Therefore, this study, effect diazinon (organophosphate class) and carbaryl (carbamate pesticides, which be widely agri...

Rapid identification of Candida species has become more important because of an increase in infections caused by species other than Candida albicans, including species innately resistant to azole antifungal drugs. We previously developed a PCR assay with an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) format to detect amplicons from the five most common Candida species by using universal fungal primers and species...
