Enhanced resistance of DNA nanostructures to enzymatic digestion

Chemical Communications, 2009
The ability of nucleases to perform their catalytic functions depends on the sequence and structural features of target DNA substrates. Due to their size and shape, several DNA tetrahedra are resistant to the action of specific and non-specific nucleases.

Enhanced on-plate digestion of proteins using a MALDI-digestion chamber

International Journal of Mass Spectrometry, 2017
Abstract A commercially available digestion chamber (SunDigest, SunChrom) is used for on-target digestion of proteins for subsequent direct MALDI-MS analysis. Temperature and humidity in the chamber can be controlled and kept constant during the reactions.

Pretreatment of sugar cane bagasse for enhanced ruminal digestion

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 1996
Crop residues, such as sugar cane bagasse (SCB), have been largely used for cattle feeding. However, the close association that exists among the three major plant cell-wall components, cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, limits the efficiency by which ruminants can degrade these materials.

Actinidin Enhances Gastric Protein Digestion As Assessed Using an in Vitro Gastric Digestion Model

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2010
Consumption of kiwifruit has long been claimed anecdotally to assist in gastric digestion. This has generally been assumed to be due to the presence of the proteolytic enzyme actinidin; however, there is little published evidence supporting this assumption.

Enhancement of anaerobic digestion by adding elemental sulfur

Bioresource Technology
In this study, a new approach to enhance methane (CH4) production from organic substrates in anaerobic digestion (AD) has been discovered. That is, the addition of elemental sulfur (S0) particles into the AD system promotes the synergistic growth of elemental sulfur disproportionation bacteria, acidogenic bacteria and methanogenic archaea, thus ...

Anaerobic Digestion Enhancement With Microbial Electrolysis Cells

2018
The engineering of replacements for crude oil is a priority within industrial biotechnology. Biogas, produced by anaerobic digestion (AD) during organic waste degradation, has been used for electricity generation and heating. Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) are an emerging technology which when combined with AD can produce higher yields of such ...

Enhancement of anaerobic sludge digestion by high-pressure homogenization

Bioresource Technology, 2012
To improve anaerobic sludge digestion efficiency, the effects of high-pressure homogenization (HPH) conditions on the anaerobic sludge digestion were investigated. The VS and TCOD were significantly removed with the anaerobic digestion, and the VS removal and TCOD removal increased with increasing the homogenization pressure and homogenization cycle ...

Enhancement of rhodanese activity during controlled digestion with trypsin

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1974
Abstract When the enzyme rhodanese (EC 2. 8. 1. 1) is digested with trypsin under controlled conditions, the parent protein is converted from a polypeptide of molecular weight 32,600 to a polypeptide of molecular weight 28,800. This proteolytic conversion occurs with no loss of rhodanese activity.

Enhanced Anaerobic Digestion by Inoculation With Compost

2017
108The increased use of the activated sludge system to treat municipal and industrial wastewater has led to a considerable production of sludge, which is potentially harmful to both the environment and human beings. Anaerobic digestion (AD) of waste-activated sludge (WAS) is a widely accepted method for sludge stabilization and biogas production.
