OBJECTIVE To study the characteristics of a bioflocculant named MBF7 produced by Penicillum strain HHE-P7 and the effects of cultivation conditions on bioflocculant production. METHODS The chemical group in the bioflocculant molecules was shown by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, and the average molecular weight of MBF7 was estimated by gel permeation chromatography. The effects of ...

Ochratoxin A (OTA), mainly produced by Aspergillus and Penicillum species, is one of the most important mycotoxin contaminants in agricultural products. It is detrimental to human health because of its nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, and immunosuppression. OTA structurally consists of adihydrocoumarin moiety linked with l-phenylalanine via an amide bond. OTA bio...

This study was aimed to screen the lignocellulolytic ability of selected fungi under laboratory conditions. In presence of lignin and hemicellulose will reduce the activity of cellulase. Wild type fungal strains which have cellulolytic activity along with lignolytic activity, hemicellulolytic activity, were isolated from different animal dung manure soils collected from Sri Venkateswara Go Samr...

Casandria Walker, 1857, is transferred from the Nolidae (Collomeninae) to Erebidae (Catocalinae), as senior synonym of Acathodica Schaus, 1894. Consequently, species formerly associated with Acanthodica are herein Casandria: C. albiplena (L. B. Prout, 1919) (Acanthodica), comb. n., cabra (Dognin, 1894) chiripa coelebs drucei 1889) (Calocampa), emittens 1857 [=Agrotis daunus Druce, 1894)], syn. ...

fungal infection of uterine of dairy cattle have not been received much more attention. the aim of this study was: to investigate the uterine mycoflora of dairy cows with reproductive disorders or healthy. uterine sampling of 112 holstein dairy cows included 70 cows with reproductive disorders and 42 healthy cows were collected directly. samples were cultured in sabouraud glucose agar at 28°c f...

Fungi of different kinds/races have been observed on Tossa jute seeds collected from locations in Bangladesh. These fungi harm the quality and lessen germination percentage seeds. The aim this research was to determine seed-borne fungal pathogens varieties experiments were conducted following Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four replications. Eight are used present research. Seed sample...
