Role of the pre-neck appendage protein (Dpo7) from phage vB_SepiS-phiIPLA7 as an anti-biofilm agent in staphylococcal species [PDF]
Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus are important causative agents of hospital-acquired infections and bacteremia, likely due to their ability to form biofilms. The production of a dense exopolysaccharide (EPS) matrix enclosing the cells

Algin is the most abundant substance in alga. Alginate lyase degrades algin and produces algin monosaccharides, disaccharides, and oligosaccharides, which are widely used in bioenergy, food, medicine, and other fields.

Characterization of an Alkaline Alginate Lyase with pH-Stable and Thermo-Tolerance Property
Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) show versatile bioactivities. Although various alginate lyases have been characterized, enzymes with special characteristics are still rare. In this study, a polysaccharide lyase family 7 (PL7) alginate lyase-encoding gene,

Protoplasts - a powerful tool in genetic manipulation of commercial seaweeds [PDF]
Protoplast is an importanttooi for parasexual modification of genetic content of plant cells (Vasil and Vasil, 1980). Production of algal protoplasts and their fusion are relatively new fields and lag far behind that of terrestrial plants (Berliner 1981,

A molecular insight into algal-oomycete warfare: cDNA analysis of Ectocarpus siliculosus infected with the basal oomycete Eurychasma dicksonii [PDF]
Brown algae are the predominant primary producers in coastal habitats, and like land plants are subject to disease and parasitism. Eurychasma dicksonii is an abundant, and probably cosmopolitan, obligate biotrophic oomycete pathogen of marine brown algae.

4-Deoxy-l- erythro -5-hexoseulose uronic acid (DEH) is a rare deoxy sugar produced from alginate by the action of an exotype alginate lyase. A simple and rapid method for analyzing DEH using high-performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light ...

Composition of Aiginates from Brown Seaweeds, Sargassum and Padina spp. [PDF]
The percentage yield of alginate in brown seaweeds, Sargassum and Padina spp., from Sabah, and the intrinsic viscosities of these alginates were determined. Young and mature Sargassum, respectively, gave 35% and 32%, while Pad ina only yielded 18.5% of

Production and antibacterial properties of flavour and flavonoid compounds from cultured tissues of citrus hystrix D. C. ('Limau Purut') [PDF]
Analyses of the flavour compounds from the selected parts of flower, seedlings grown in-vitro and callus cultures of Citrus hystrix D.C. were performed using the gas chromatography (GC) technique.
