The comparative analysis of the methods for keratin extraction from sheep wool and human hair

, 2020
Nowadays, biopolymers such as keratins are widely used in biomedicine due to their low toxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. At the molecular level, keratins differ from other structural proteins by a high content of disulfide bonds, which ...

High keratinase and other types of hydrolase activity of the new strain of Bacillus paralicheniformis.

PLoS ONE
Keratinases, a subclass of proteases, are used to degrade keratin thereby forming peptones and free amino acids. Bacillus paralicheniformis strain T7 was isolated from soil and exhibited high keratinase, protease, collagenase, amylase, xylanase, lipase ...
