The anti-cancer activity of a cationic anti-microbial peptide derived from monomers of polyhydroxyalkanoate
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The biodegradable polymer medium chain length polyhydroxyalkanoate (mclPHA), produced by Pseudomonas putida CA-3, was depolymerised and the predominant monomer (R)-3-hydroxydecanoic acid (R10) purified. R10 was conjugated ...
Macromolecular crowding conditions enhance glycation and oxidation of whey proteins in ultrasound-induced Maillard reaction
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
High intensity ultrasound (HIUS) can promote Maillard reaction (MR). Macromolecular crowding conditions accelerate reactions and stabilise protein structure. The aim of this study was to investigate if combined application ...
Towards better quality criteria of European honeydew honey: Phenolic profile and antioxidant capacity
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
Concerning the particular nutritive value of honeydew honey compared to blossom honey, and small number of studies defining botanical origin of honeydew honey, comprehensive analysis of phenolic profile of 64 honeydew honey ...
Tentacle carrier for immobilization of potato phenoloxidase and its application for halogenophenols removal from aqueous solutions
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2011)
Halogenated compounds represent one of the most dangerous environmental pollutants, due to their widespread usage as biocides, fungicides, disinfectants, solvent and other industrial chemicals. Immobilization of a protein ...
Immobilization of Cell Wall Invertase Modified with Glutaraldehyde for Continuous Production of Invert Sugar
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2010)
Yeast cell wall invertase (CWI) was modified with dimethyl suberimidate, glutaraldehyde, formaldehyde, and sodium periodate. Retained activity after modification was 45% for CWI modified with formaldehyde, 77% for CWI ...
Characterisation of leucyl aminopeptidase from Solanum tuberosum tuber
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
Potato juice (a waste product from the starch industry) is a potential source of novel enzymes for food applications. For use in the production and improvement of food protein hydrolysates, commercially available exopeptidases, ...
Combined multivariate data analysis of high-performance thin-layer chromatography fingerprints and direct analysis in real time mass spectra for profiling of natural products like propolis
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
Sophisticated statistical tools are required to extract the full analytical power from high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC). Especially, the combination of HPTLC fingerprints (image) with chemometrics is ...
Synthesis and Evaluation of Series of Diazine-Bridged Dinuclear Platinum(II) Complexes through in Vitro Toxicity and Molecular Modeling: Correlation between Structure and Activity of Pt(II) Complexes
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2015)
Polynuclear Pt(II) complexes are a novel class of promising anticancer agents with potential clinical significance. A series of pyrazine (pz) bridged dinuclear Pt(II) complexes with general formulas {[Pt(L)Cl](2)(mu-pz)}(2+) ...
Lignin degradation by selected fungal species
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
As biological decomposition of plant biomass represents a popular alternative environmental-friendly and economically justified process, screening of ligninolytic enzyme systems of various fungal species is a topical study ...
A new class of platinum(II) complexes with the phosphine ligand pta which show potent anticancer activity
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2018)
The anticancer potential of sixteen platinum(II) complexes with general formulae [PtCl(hq)(S-dmso)] (1a-8a) and [PtCl(hq)(pta)] (1b-8b) (where hq is 5-chloro-7-iodo-8-quinolinol (clioquinol; cqH) (1a, 1b), 8-hydroxy-5-ni ...
