'Streptomyces sp. SK519 was cultivated in the medium containing 0.5% birch wood xylan to produce extracellular xylanase. The xylanase was isolated from the culture supernatant by ammonium sulfate precipitation and partially purified by absorbing on the insoluble xylan. Alkali-extracted kenaf glucuronoylan of which main chain primarily consisting of (1-4)-linked β-D-xylopyranose ... More

Authors:Gupta, SK; Kumari, R; Prakash, O; Lal, R
Journal:
PubMed ID:
'A Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped, non-sporulating, aerobic bacterial strain (Esp-1(T)) was isolated from oil-contaminated soil of Panipat Oil Refinery, India, and its taxonomic position was determined using a polyphasic approach. Strain Esp-1(T) grew in the presence of 2% NaCl at 30 °C and was characterized chemotaxonomically by having C(16:0) as the ... More
Multilocus DNA sequence comparisons rapidly identify pathogenic molds.
'The increasing incidence of opportunistic fungal infections necessitates rapid and accurate identification of the associated fungi to facilitate optimal patient treatment. Traditional phenotype-based identification methods utilized in clinical laboratories rely on the production and recognition of reproductive structures, making identification difficult or impossible when these structures are not observed. We ... More
