The rate ofhydroxyl release was very rapid at the first several minutes, then gradually slowed down, and atlast did not change any more. The experimental data was well fitted by the Langmuir kineticequation, arid with increasing selenite concentration or decreasing solution pH, the reaction lastedlonger, the maximum of hydroxyl release (x_m) increased, and the binding constant (k) decreased.The time of hydroxyl release with Xuwen latosol was much longer than that with Jinxian red soil.展开更多

The unique chemical composition and excellent physicochemical properties make Salecan a promising material for applications in coagulation, lubrication, protection against acute liver injury, and alleviating constipation. In this study, we cloned the Vitreosci/la hemoglobin gene into a broad-host-range plasmid pCM158. Without antibiotic selection, there was negligible loss of the plasmid in the host Agrobacterium sp. ZX09 after one passage of cultivation. The expression of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin was demonstrated by carbon monoxide (CO) dif- ference spectrum. The engineered strain Agrobacterium sp. ZX09 increased Salecan yield by 30%. The other physi- ological changes included its elevated respiration rate and cellular invertase activity.展开更多
