Hydrogen production has a correlation with cell growth and the consumption of glucose and soluble protein. The optimum pH for cell growth is 4.5±0.15. At acidic pH 4.0±0.15, the bacteria has the maximum accumulated hydrogen volume of 2382 ml/L culture and the maximum hydrogen evolution rate of 339.9 ml/L culture·h with 1% glucose. The optimum temperature for cell growth and hydrogen production is 35℃. In addition, fermentative hydrogen-producing bacterial strain B49 can generate hydrogen from the decomposition of other organic substrates such as wheat, soybean, corn, and potato. Moreover, it can also produce hydrogen from molasses wastewater and brewage wastewater, and hydrogen yields are 137.9 ml H 2/g COD and 49.9 ml H 2/g COD, respectively.展开更多

Their mean and standard deviation was (5.5 ~ 1.69) while the lowest frequency fungal isolated was Dreschslera sp. and Rhizopus sp.. Their mean and standard deviation was (0.1 ~ 0.64). The aflatoxin-producing isolates appeared as gray or black colonies in the UV photographs, whereas nonproducing isolates appeared as white colonies, the plate five colony four (P5CO4) showed the positive results which means the presence of aflatoxin as compaired to the control which showed the ngative results. Ammonium Hydroxide Vapor-Induced Color Change method used which the dish was inverted and 1 or 2 drops of concentrated ammonium hydroxide solution are placed on the inside of the lid. The undersides of aflatoxin-producing colonies quickly turn plum-red after the bottom of the Petri dish has been inverted over the lid containing the ammonium hydroxide aspositive result in (P5CO4) and (P7CO4) observed. Essentially no color change occurs on the undersides of colonies that are not producing aflatoxinsthis indicate to the negative results (control). The main objective of this study is to isolation, identification and rapid detection of aflatoxin from wheat seed borne fungi.展开更多
