Mycophenolic acid is a secondary extracellular metabolite of Penicillium strains with numerous pharmaceutical properties such as antibiotic and immunosuppressive uses. The aim of this work is the survey of the effect of phenylglyoxal and n-ethylmaleimide concentration in culture medium on mycophenolic acid production by Penicillium brevi-compactum ATCC16024 was investigated. Batch submerged fer...

Control systems for shakers are necessary to remove both shaker dynamics as well as coupling effects between the shaker and the structure under test. Little attention has been given to shaker control for nonlinear structures. This paper presents the design, implementation and results of a shaker controller for a horizontal, cantilevered beam subjected to a non-uniform magnetic field. The object...

The main concern of an olive grower is primarily to achieve more income and profits. A harvesting method having higher efficiency and better fruit and oil quality, but a higher operation cost leads to a lower benefit. A study was carried out to evaluate the techno-economic performances of Trunk Shaker (TS) and Mechanical Harvest Aid (MHA) shaker for harvesting the yellow and Manzanilla olive cu...

Voltage-gated ion channels have voltage sensors that move in response to changes in membrane potential. This movement regulates the gates that control access of ions to the permeation pathway. To study the coupling between voltage sensors and gates, we immobilize the voltage sensors, using a bifunctional photo-cross-linking reagent that can be attached to an introduced cysteine, and observe the...

Xanthomonas campestris was used for producing xanthan gum using date syrup, prepared from low quality dates, as a substrate. Fermentation was carried out with date syrup and sucrose syrup at 28 ˚C and pH 6.8 in a rotary benmarin shaker (240 rpm). The effect of fermentation period (24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 h) on xanthan gum production was studied. The results showed that EPS concentration increase...

It has been shown for a Shaker channel (H-4) that its NH2-terminal cytoplasmic domain may form a "ball and chain" structure, with the "chain" tethering the "ball" to the channel while the "ball" capable of binding to the channel in its open state and causing inactivation. Equivalent structures have not been identified in mammalian Shaker homologues. We studied the functional role of the NH2-ter...
