UNLABELLED Physico-chemical properties of amino acids can be used to study protein sequence profiles, folding and function. We collated 242 properties for the 20 naturally occurring amino acids and created a dataset. The dataset is available as a database named APDbase( Amino acid Physico-chemical properties Data base). The database can be queried using either key words describing physico-chemi...

The preparation of catalysts suitable for MTG processes in a fluidized bed reactor has been studied with emphasis on improving the textural, physico-chemical, morphological, structural and mechanical properties. A mixture HZSM-5 zeolite (active material), boehmite or bentonite (binder) alumina (inert filler) was used to prepare different catalysts. After preparation, characterization by physica...

Physico-chemical properties reflect the functional and structural characteristics of a protein. The comparative study of the physicochemical properties is important to know role of a protein in exploring its molecular evolution. A number of online and offline tools are available for calculating the physico-chemical properties of a single protein sequence. However, a tool is not available for a ...

Soil genesis, physico-chemical properties and tea yield were investigated along different hillslope positions in the major tea cultivation area of Iran, i.e. Lahijan, Gilan Province. Land suitability was also determined for the tea production in this hilly region. Four different slope positions i.e., summit, shoulder, backslope and toeslope were sampled on three slope aspects following the prof...

It was found that Aspergillus sp. No. Y-8980 which was isolated from a soil sample collected at Yoron Island in Kagoshima Prefecture belonged to Aspergillus terreus group by morphological observation. The active substance produced by the strain was obtained with a high yield in sucrose-yeast extract medium and extracted by chloroform, ethyl acetate and n-butanol at pH 2.4 approximately 2.6 from...

slurries of rice-straw cellulose (obtained by delignification and removal of hemicelluloses from the powdered raw material) were subjected to ultrasonic waves at different intensities for various times (constant temperature). susceptibility of the samples to cellulose-hydrolysis increased initially with pretreatment time, reaching a maximum or a constant level thereafter. maximum glucose yield ...

long term monitoring programme on brine shrimp ( artemia sp.) is being carried out by the environment agency, abu dhabi, united arab emirates (ead) with the prime purpose of understanding the population dynamics, ecology and habitat requirements of artemia at al wathba lake, situated within al wathba wetland reserve, which is an artificial wetland near abu dhabi city. the present study, being a...
