Zebrafish larvae are used as a model to induce Parkinson’s disease like locomotor phenotypes, by exposing MPP + , a metabolite of 1-methyl,4-phenyl, 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine, to the zebrafish larvae. Quercetin, a flavonoid possessing strong medicinal properties, was used to rescue zebrafish larvae from the locomotor defects caused by MPP + . The two critical parameters of locomotor behavior, viz. distance travelled and speed of 5 days post-fertilization (dpf) of zebrafish larvae, were analyzed using a video capturing system, ImageJ and wrMTrck plugin. Two days of exposure to MPP + at 1 mM concentration reduced the distance travelled and movement speed in 5 dpf zebrafish larvae. Quercetin treatment of 12 μM concentration for 2 days significantly increased the distance travelled and movement of speed of MPP + -induced zebrafish larvae. Our study showed that 2 days of quercetin are required to completely rescue from MPP + -induced Parkinsonian-like motor defects.","PeriodicalId":423079,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121788277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, changes in the environmental temperature for a few hours, which is uncommon, affecting the embryo development, protein expression, and hatching of larvae in the Eri silkworm ( Samia cynthia ricini ) remain enigmatic. Hence, for the first time, the eggs of new Eri silkworm breed C2 were exposed to heat shock (HS) temperature of 35°C, 40°C, and 45°C for 2 hours not only to measure heat sensitivity but also to uncover differential expression of proteins in a different age of the embryo. Interestingly, the quantum of protein not only increased but also a differential expression of 70, 60, 45, 36, and 30 kDa proteins was obvious due to induction of HS. The induction of HS has shown a significant impact on embryonic development wherein 45°C is found to be lethal as none of the eggs hatched. On other hand, an improvement in the hatching was observed in the eggs HS at 40°C, which could be due to the expression of HS proteins (HSPs). Taken together, we suggest that hatching of the embryo is one of the key traits to determine tolerance potential of the silkworm strains/breeds to heat stress by expressing HSPs. Therefore, this strategy shall be followed for development of a new Eri silkworm breed with better acquired tolerance to high temperature suitable","PeriodicalId":423079,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125554298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results indicated that the crude extract of purslane contains 0.847 mg/ml amount of proteins and 107.88 mg/ml amount of phenolic compounds. The extract’s ability to scavenge free radicals was demonstrated by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method,results, which showed 48.8% improvement over the control gallic acid. The optimal temperature for PPO activity was 40°C, and the optimal pH was 6.0. Moreover, results showed a high browning intensity after incubation for 100 minutes. Kinetic studies illustrated the marked effects of the HM Cu and Zn on the studied kinetic parameters of PPO by performing changes in the values of V max and K m . These HM can act as noncompetitive or uncompetitive inhibitors on enzyme kinetics. In conclusion, depending on the type and concentration of Cu and Zn, the presence of these HM reduces PPO action.

It is produced by different types of microorganisms. Applications of this enzyme depend on its source and nature. Furthermore, economic viability depends on enzyme production by fermentation process. There is a need to search potent new microbial strains for higher asparaginase production. In this study, a potent bacterial strain was isolated from different soil samples and selected for maximum asparaginase production. It was identified following the Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology and phylogenetic analysis by 16S rDNA nucleotide sequencing. The organism was found to be Brevibacillus borstelensis ML12. The environmental parameters for asparaginase production include pH (5–10), temperature (25–40°C), inoculum volume (1–10%), fermentation medium volume (25–125 mL), fermentation time (16–48 h), age of culture (16–30 h), and shaking RPM (80–140 rpm). The statistical techniques, Plackett–Burman (PB) design, and response surface methodology (RSM) were further used for the optimization process, using Minitab 18 software. PB design composed of 12 trials and resulted in three significant parameters such as medium volume, inoculum volume, and shaking speed. RSM was employed to detect the optimum conditions for asparaginase production. The maximum production of asparaginase was achieved at media as 50 mL; inoculum as 6%; and shaking RPM as 120 rpm. There is no literature available on the production of asparaginase by B. borstelensis ML12; thus, after characterization, it may be used in pharmaceutical and food processing industries.","PeriodicalId":423079,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126156985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Annona muricata inhibits and stimulates other plants’ growth, a phenomenon called “allelopathic effect.” Crude water extract of the leaves of A. muricata was treated on V. radiata and E. coracana in different concentrations such as 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5%, respectively. A control crop was treated with distilled water. The morphological and physiological effects on V. radiata and E. coracana were observed and recorded. Data were recorded on seed germination (after 10 days of seed sowing), growth, and biochemical composition (15 days old seedlings). Reduction in germination percentage of V. radiata and E. coracana was recorded using leaf extract of A. muricata . The outcome of this research work showed that the extracts from the leaves of the A. muricata plant inhibit and stimulate the growth and development of the test seedlings. The biochemical constituents of test seedlings, such as chl a, chl b, carotenoid, protein, amino acid, carbohydrate, peroxidase, and catalase were observed. The extracts were absorbed through the roots of these plants, affecting physiological processes such as photosynthetic and transpiratory rates, stomatal closure, and reduced chlorophyll content, resulting in wilting, tissue maceration, and stunted growth. Between the two crops, more allelopathic effect was recorded in E. coracana . These results showed that there are differences in allelopathic inhibition and stimulation of crops.","PeriodicalId":423079,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117239055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
