Red clay was previously used to enhance bioremediation of diesel-contaminated soil. It was speculated that the enhanced degradation of diesel was due to increased bacterial growth. In this study, we selected Acinetobacter oleivorans DR1, a soil-borne degrader of diesel and
The Ca(2+)-triggered merger of two apposed membranes is the defining step of regulated exocytosis. CHOL is required at critical levels in secretory vesicle membranes to enable efficient, native membrane fusion: CHOL-sphingomyelin enriched microdomains organize the site and regulate fusion efficiency
In the present study, n-hexadecane degradation in MSM was investigated by three bacteria identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa PSA5, Rhodococcus sp. NJ2 and Ochrobactrum intermedium P2, isolated from petroleum sludge. During 10 days of incubation, n-hexadecane was degraded to 99% by

LadA, a monooxygenase catalyzing the oxidation of n-alkanes to 1-alkanols, is the key enzyme for the degradation of long-chain alkanes (C(15)-C(36)) in Geobacillus thermodenitrificans NG80-2. In this study, random- and site-directed mutagenesis were performed to enhance the activity of the
A simple and high sensitive technique based on three phase hollow fiber liquid phase microextraction (HF-LPME), optimized by using a four-variable experimental design and response surface methodology was performed to evaluate dextromethorphan hydrobromide (DEX) and chloropheniramine maleate (CLP) simultaneously in
