Heterotrophic microalgae are recognized as a source of bioactive compounds. However, there still some drawbacks for their use at an industrial scale associated with the high cost glucose, main carbon in heterotrophic cultures. In recent years, significant efforts have been made to investigate more sustainable sources produce biomass. this study, capacity Schizochytrium limacinum grow on waste-d...

Introduction: A neurodevelopmental disorder, autism typically identified with three primary behavioral consequences, such as social impairment, communication problems and limited or stereotypical behavior. Because of its co-morbidity and lack of therapeutic options, autism is a global economic burden. A short chain of fatty acid, propionic acid formed biologically by gut microbiome. Propionic a...

In a previous paper the relative rates of absorption of acetic acid and propionic acid through the rumen wall were discussed (Gray, 1947a). While the manuscript was being prepared, Danielli, Hitchcock, Marshall & Phillipson (1945) described a series of experiments from which it was evident that the lower homologues of the fatty acids are absorbed through the rumen wall at different rates when t...

The aim of this study was to determine the changes of short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in faeces of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients compared to healthy subjects. SCFAs such as pyruvic, lactic, formic, acetic, propionic, isobutyric and butyric acids were analyzed by using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). This study showed that the level of acetic, 162.0 micromol/g wet faec...

Changes in the total concentration of the volatile fatty acid (VFA) pool in the rumen were followed over a 24 hour period in 2 groups of sheep, 1 fed at 08h00 and the other twice daily at 08h00 and 20h00. Although similar maximum (143 and 147 meq/1) and average (100, 3 and 102, 1 meq/1) levels were found in the 12 and 24 h groups respectively, the twice daily feeding regimen resulted in a lower...

The effect of acetic or propionic acid rumen fermentation patterns on whole-body protein turnover, tissue protein synthetic rates and body composition was investigated in growing lambs. Protein turnover was assessed using a continuous intravenous infusion of [2,3-3H]tyrosine and tissue protein fractional synthetic rates (FSR) from the specific activities of plasma free, intracellular free and t...

Separation of formic, acetic, and propionic acids from the aqueous stream using membrane solvent extraction has been studied using three different membrane contactors made of polysulfone (PS), polyethersulfone (PES), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) using two different solvents; including ethyl acetate (EA) and diisopropyl ether (DIPE). The efciency of the membrane and e...
