This study evaluated the effect of adjuvants viz. glycerol, boric acid, carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) and Tween-80 on growth Metarhizium rileyi (Farlow) Kepler, Rehner Humber isolates. Their virulence against Spodoptera litura (F.) larvae has also been assessed. The isolates were observed to exhibit maximum surface area coverage biomass with glycerol @ 5% CMC 0.5%. Further, NIPHM isolate M. su...

Polysaccharide-induced protein fluorescence 'turn-on' responses have been studied in the presence of similarly charged micelle at pH ∼3. Quenched protein fluorescence is selectively recovered ('on' state) for bovine serum albumin (BSA) with sodium carboxy methyl cellulose (SCMC) and for pepsin (PS) with chitosan (CS) with starting ultra low concentrations of 0.04 μM and 0.008 μM respectively.

conclusions in conclusion, the suspension containing veegum 1%, sodium carboxy methyl cellulose 1%, glycerine 0.2%, sodium citrate 0.3% and sorbitol 20 % was chosen as the most physically stable formulation. results according to the results, glycerin (0.2%) and sodium citrate (0.3%) had the best effect on the suspension stability as wetting and flocculating agents, respectively. rheological pro...

The aims of this study were the isolation and screening of fungal cultures from forest litter soil for cellulases production. Four fungal cultures were isolated and identified. Among these fungal cultures, three belonged to the genus Aspergillus and one belonged to the genus Penicillium. These fungal cultures were tested to find their ability to produce cellulases, that catalyze the degradation...

Cellulose agricultural waste is a source of environmental pollution and an alternative solution to overcome it degrade this with the help cellulolytic enzymes. The Biochemistry Laboratory FMIPA Riau University has number endophytic bacterial isolates from roots Mangrove Ceriops tagal (Perr) C. B. Rob in Bengkalis area whose potential produce enzymes not yet known. Qualitative selection carboxy ...

A baby full term born of LSCS to a otherwise healthy mother was referred for ophthalmology department. On ophthalmological torch light examination, the patient had equal upper and lower lid bilateral ectropion. There missing eye lashes noted. The anterior segment evaluation found be within normal limit without evidence corneal opacities. Lamellar ichthyosis termed as Collodion is infrequent dis...

In this study the thermal conductivity and the volumetric heat capacity of non-Newtonian fluids are investigated. These fluids find many applications in chemical, medical and food industries. They mostly have viscoelastic behavior and generally differ from Newtonian fluids. Two non-Newtonian fluids, solutions of xanthan and carboxy methyl cellulose in water with various concentrations have bee...
