Identification of olfactory receptor neurons in Uraba lugens (Lepidoptera: Nolidae) and its implications for host range.

J. Insect Physiol. 78 , 33-46, (2015)

Phytophagous insects detect volatile compounds produced by host and non-host plants, using species-specific sets of olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs). To investigate the relationship between the range of host plants and the profile of ORNs, single sensillum r...

Tuning the catalytic properties of lipases immobilized on divinylsulfone activated agarose by altering its nanoenvironment.

Enzyme Microb. Technol. 77 , 1-7, (2015)

Lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL) and lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB) have been immobilized on divinylsulfone (DVS) activated agarose beads at pH 10 for 72 h. Then, as a reaction end point, very different nucleophiles have been used to block t...

The scent ofMycobacterium tuberculosis

Tuberculosis (Edinb.) 88(4) , 317-23, (2008)

Worldwide, tuberculosis (TB) kills nearly 2 million people annually, yet rapid diagnosis still relies on a 100-year-old method of sputum staining for acid-fast bacilli. The advent of solid phase micro-extraction and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry makes ...

Plant odor analysis of potato: response of guatemalan moth to above- and belowground potato volatiles.

J. Agric. Food Chem. 57(13) , 5903-9, (2009)

The Guatemalan moth Tecia solanivora is an invasive pest of potato in Central and South America. The larvae infest potato tubers in the field as well as in storage facilities. The headspace of potato foliage and potato tubers was studied with regard to volati...

Honeybees Apis mellifera can detect the scent of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis (Edinb.) 91(4) , 327-8, (2011)

The proboscis extension reflex in honeybees was evaluated for detection of tuberculosis. Restrained bees were tested with methyl phenylacetate, methyl p-anisate, and methyl nicotinate, previously identified from Mycobacterium tuberculosis cultures, to determi...

Enantioselective acylation of β-phenylalanine acid and its derivatives catalyzed by penicillin G acylase from Alcaligenes faecalis.

Prep Biochem Biotechnol. 43(2) , 207-16, (2013)

This study developed a simple, efficient method for producing racemic β-phenylalanine acid (BPA) and its derivatives via the enantioselective acylation catalyzed by the penicillin G acylase from Alcaligenes faecalis (Af-PGA). When the reaction was run at 25°C...

Predictive relationships for the effects of triglyceride ester concentration and water uptake on solubility and partitioning of small molecules into lipid vehicles.

J. Pharm. Sci. 93(11) , 2768-79, (2004)

The ability to predict drug solubility and partitioning in triglyceride solvents from the chemical structures of the solute and the triglyceride would be highly useful in drug formulation development and in screening drug candidates for lipid solubility and p...
