A completely randomized design involving a 8(silage additives)×3 or 2(silage days) factorial arrangement of treatments was adopted in the present study. The 8 silage additive treatments were: untreated alfalfa(control); two commercial additives(GFJ and Chikuso-1); an originally selected LAB(Lactobacillus plantarum a214) isolated from alfalfa silage; a cellulase-producing Bacillus(CB) isolated from fresh alfalfa; cellulase(C); and the combined additives(a214+C and a214+CB). Silage fermentation characteristics, chemical composition and microorganism populations were analysed after 30, 60 and 65 days(60 days followed by exposure to air for five additional days). In vitro digestibility was analysed for 30 and 60 days. Compared with the other treatments, selected LAB a214, a214 combined with either C or CB, and Chikuso-1 had the decreased(P<0.001) pH and increased(P<0.001) lactic acid concentrations during the ensiling process, and there were no differences(P>0.05) among them. Fiber degradation was not significant(P≥0.054) in any C or CB treatments. The a214 treatment showed the highest(P=0.009) in vitro digestibility of dry matter(595.0 g kg^(–1) DM) after ensiling and the highest abundance of Lactobacillus(69.42 and 79.81%, respectively) on days 60 and 65, compared to all of other treatments. Overall, the silage quality of alfalfa was improved with the addition of a214, which indicates its potential as an alfalfa silage inoculant.展开更多

Silages were prepared using a small-scale fermentation system and the moisture level was adjusted to 60% of fresh matter (FM) with deionized water. Treatments were designed as: control silage without additives, LAB inoculant Lactobacillus casei Z3-1 (1.0 × 106 cfu·g-1 of FM), commercial inoculant L. plantarum FG 1 (1.0 × 106 cfu·g-1 of FM), Z3-1 + cellulase and FG 1 + cellulase. The neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF) and crude protein (CP) contents of the wheat straw prior to ensiling were 76.93%, 48.52% and 4.63% of dry matter (DM), respectively. After 30 days of fermentation, the silages treated with LAB and LAB + cellulase had a lower (P < 0.05) pH and higher (P < 0.05) lactic acid content than the control, and the coliform bacteria, yeast and mold were inhibited at the early stage of fermentation. Besides, silages treated with cellulase had lower (P < 0.05) values of ADF and NDF than the control. The results confirmed that the addition of cellulase and LAB contributed to improving the fermentation quality of wheat straw silage.展开更多

Based on experiments, a cellulolytic enzyme named cellulase A6 was found able to produce about 170 g glucose from 1 kg dried apple pomace after 12 h reaction, with cellulase concentration of 20 U/g in the medium at 50oC, natural pH without pretreatment of alkali. Using the treated apple pomace as a liquid state substrate, Aspergillus niger-C selected out was able to produce about 256 g citric acid from 1 kg dried apple pomace at 35oC in 3 d or 30oC in 5 d with flask rotation speed of 210 r/min, and the conversion of citric acid could reach 80% based on the amount of sugar consumed.展开更多

BSS3 and Pseudomonas sp. BSS2 isolated from the wood-yards on Kallai river bank in Kerala. Production of cellulase by these isolates was detected using basal salt medium (BSM) with 0.5% CMC as supplement, and CMCase activity was confirmed by iodine test. Dinitrosalicylic acid method was employed for assaying the cellulase production by measuring the amount of glucose liberated in μmol/mL/min. Maximum enzyme production from Pseudomonas sp. BSS2 was at pH 8, 37℃ with 1% CMC and 150 rpm, and cellulase production increased from initial 49.84 U/mL to 91.28 U/mL after optimization. The highest enzyme activity from Bacillus sp. BSS3 was at pH 9, 37℃ with 1% CMC, 150 rpm, and cellulase production increased from initial 26.05 U/mL to 104.68 U/mL after optimization. The maximum enzyme production from A. xylosoxidans BSS4 was at pH 7, 40℃ with 0.5% CMC and 150 rpm, and cellulase production increased from initial 55.28 U/mL to 68.37 U/mL after optimization. Thus among the three isolates, Bacillus sp. BSS3 showed maximum enzyme yield which can be explored for further scale up studies with an industrial perspective.展开更多

The patients in control group were treated with alprostadil, and the patients in observation group were treated with lipoic acid combined with alprostadil. Before and after treatment, the levels of plasminogen activator, fibrinopeptide A, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), catalase (CAT), Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and homocysteine (Hcy) of patients in the two groups were detected and compared.Results: After treatment, the levels of plasminogen activator, SOD, GSH-PX and CAT of patients in the control group and the observation group were significantly increased. The levels of fibrinogen A and plasminogen activator inhibitor -1 of patients in the control group and the observation group were significantly decreased. The changes of the above indexes of patients in the observation group were more obvious than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of TLR2, TLR9, VCAM-1, MMP-9 and Hcy in the serum of patients in the control group and the observation group were significantly decreased. The down-regulation of these factors of patients in the observation group was more obvious than that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion:Lipoic acid combined with alprostadil in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus disease can significantly enhance the activity of fibrinolytic enzymes and antioxidant capacity, alleviate inflammation, and it has a good clinical effect.展开更多

The application of abscisic acid(ABA) or ethephon inhibits or promotes germination, respectively, by affecting endosperm cap weakening and radicle elongation. Cellulase activities, and related protein and transcript abundances of two lettuce cellulase genes, Ls CEL1 and Ls CEL2, increase in the endosperm cap and radicle prior to radicle protrusion following imbibition in water. ABA or ethephon reduce or elevate, respectively,cellulase activity, and related protein and transcript abundances in the endosperm cap. Taken together, these observations suggest that cellulase plays a role in endosperm cap weakening and radicle elongation during lettuce seed germination, andthat the regulation of cellulase in the endosperm cap by ABA and ethephon play a role in endosperm cap weakening.However, the influence of ABA and ethephon on radicle elongation may not be through their effects on cellulase.展开更多
