[Method] Soils were sampled from experimental fields of Shanxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences and added with charcoals in different types in order to analyze dynamic changes of alkaline phosphatase and cellulase activities and effects of charcoals on soil enzyme activities. [Result] By applying charcoal, enzyme activity of soil samples all improved and the increase degree was higher of alkaline phosphatase than cellulase activity. Mid-temperature charcoal at 8% is the best. [Conclusion] The research provides references for effects of biochar on physi- cal and chemical properties.展开更多

The effects of wetland degradation on the structure and abundance of fungal communities and cellulase activity were assessed in these 4 soil types at 3 depths using DGGE(Denatured Gradient Gel Electrophoresis), q PCR(Quantitative Real-time PCR),and 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid assays. Cellulase activity and abundance of the fungal community declined in parallel to the level of wetland degradation(from least to most disturbed). DGGE analysis indicated a major shift in composition of fungal communities among the4 soil types consistent with the level of degradation.Water content(WC), organic carbon(OC), total nitrogen(TN), total phosphorus(TP), available nitrogen(AN), and available phosphorus(AP) were strongly correlated with cellulase activity and the structure and abundance of the fungal community.The results indicate that soil physicochemical properties(WC, OC, TN, TP, AN, and AP), cellulase activity, and diversity and abundance of fungal communities are sensitive indicators of the relative level of wetland degradation. WC was the major factorinvolved in Zoige wetland degradation and lower WC levels contributed to declines in the abundance and diversity of the fungal community and reduction in cellulase activity.展开更多

The results indicated that as Cd concentration increased, the activity of cellulase was decreasing in a short peri- od, which suggested that cellulase activity was inhibited to certain extent. As Cd concentration and the treatment period grew, the activities increased in varying de- grees. With Cd at a high concentrate, Cd had a kind of induction effects on cellu- lase activity in earthworms.展开更多

The influences of chromatographic parameters on the resolution were studied to determine the optimal conditions for purification. The purified endoglucanase was obtained by gel filtration by Superdex 75 prep grade with an activity recovery of 92.8% and the purification factor 4.2. The sample volume should be below 6% of the column bed volume and the column bed height L≥12.0 cm. The optimum catalysis temperature and pH for the enzyme were 55 ℃ and 4.5—5.0, respectively. The cellulase was stable at pH ranging from 4.0 to 6.0 and temperature below 60 ℃.展开更多

Carboxymethyl cellulose sodium gel plate and filter paper plate were used for microbe screening, and finally we got a strain named MI which has the highest cellulase producing ability, and it has been identified as Penicilium oxalicum by morphological and molecular biological identification. We have studied cellulose degradation ability of this strain under different conditions such as pH value, temperature and inoculating time. The results showed that CMCase which belongs to acid enzyme, could achieve its maximum enzyme activity 489.96 U/ml when the optimal pH value was 4. The FPAase could achieve its maximum enzyme activity 1,595.45 U/ml when the optimal pH value was 4, too. The optimal ferment temperature of CMCase is 50℃ when achieved the maximum of enzyme activity at the second day, whereas the FPAase could reach its tip top on the third day, So the optimal ferment temperature of FPAase is also 50℃.展开更多

A plate microfiltration module was found suitable for such purpose. By feeding whole medium in MMF, the productivity of GOD was much higher than that by feeding glucose alone. With increasing dilution rate the enzyme productivity increased and average enzyme activity decreased. The enzyme productivity of MMF under D = 0.12h-1 and 0.20h-1 were 3871 and 3945U·h-1 respectively, which was about 3 times as that of batch fermentation (BF) and the average enzyme activity was still as high as STU·mL-1 under D = 0.12h-1. The relative efficiency of MMF applied to low yield strain was higher than that applied to high yield strain.展开更多

The assessment of loss of wood six months after inoculation indicated isolate FC 15 as the most active. P. gigantea isolates similar in terms of enzyme activity indicated different patterns ofDNA microsatellite loci. At the same time, DNA-RAMS revealed similarities in isolates with different abilities to produce enzymes. However, some similarities and differences between isolates according to wood decay were found. No plain relationships between molecular characteristics and enzyme activity of the strains tested were observed. The results differentiated activity of tested isolates and suggested benefits of selecting P. gigantea strains for commercial use basing mainly on the assessment of wood loss activity.展开更多

Pectinase highest activity was recorded at the first week after inoculation with H. toruloidea （1.76 unit/g f.w.）, while cellulase highest activity was recorded after two weeks of inoculation with P. aleophillium （6.49 unit/g f.w.）. Peroxidase and polypolyphenol oxidase activity were significantly increased after inoculation with H. toruloidea and P. aleophillium, Peroxidase highest activity was recorded after 48 h of inoculation with H. toruloidea （1.77 unit/g f.w.）, while polypolyphenol oxidase highest activity was recorded after two weeks of inoculation with P. aleophillium （3.33 unit/g f.w.）. The result also showed that total phenol contents was significantly increased as a result to inoculation with H. toruloidea and P. aleophillium, highest total phenol contents was recorded after 48 h of inoculation with H. toruloidea （ 1.61 mg/g f.w. ）.展开更多

The remainder of the mangrove stem will be decayed and become the waste product. Some indigenous bacteria species that live in the decayed mangrove stem waste product have cellulolytic and amylolytic characters. This research was done to： （1） identify and determine the cellulolytic bacteria species; （2） identify and determine the amylolytic bacteria species; （3） determine the cellulolytic bacteria species that have the highest cellulase activity; （4） determine the amylolytic bacteria species that have the highest amylase activity. This research was conducted at the Microbiology Laboratory, Department of Biology, State University of Malang, Microbiology Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Brawijaya University and Chemistry Laboratory, Muhammadiyah Malang University. In the experiment, 25 g sample were grinded and diluted in 225 mL nutrient broth to get 101 suspension. Then the suspension was diluted gradually until 101~. The suspension was inoculated on nutrient agar medium with 0.1 mL each, and incubated in 37 ~C during 24 h. Each bacteria colony was isolated and identified to know whether it was cellulolytic or amylolytic bacteria. Afterward, the cellulase activity as well as the amylase activity was analyzed. The research results show that： （1） there are four cellulolytic bacteria species, i.e., Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus pumilus, Planococcus citreus and Bacillus cereus; （2） there are four amylolytic bacteria species, i.e., Bacillus firmus, Nitrobacter sp., Bacillus mycoides and Pseudomonas aeruginosa; （3） Bacillus cereus has the highest cellulase activity; （4） Nitrobacter sp. has the highest amylase activity.展开更多

The results indicated that Viscozyme L had the strongest effect on polyphenols extraction and was selected to study the polyphenol composition. The ratio of enzyme （Viscozyme L） to sobstrate （2 fungal beta-glucanase units （FBG）） at 0.02, reaction at pH 3.7, 50℃ for 12 h, and ethanol concentration of 70% were chosen as the most favorable extraction condition. Total phenolic content （TPC）, reducing sugar content （RSC）, and extraction yield increased by about 3, 1.5, and 2 times, respectively, compared with control. The contents ofp-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, and caffeic acid increased to 8, 4, and 32 times, respectively. The enzyme-aided polyphenol extraction process from unripe apples might be applied to food industry for enhancing bioactive compound production.展开更多
