Phytochemical analysis and in vitro biological activity of three Hypericum species from the Canary Islands (Hypericum reflexum, Hypericum canariense and Hypericum grandifolium).

Fitoterapia 100 , 95-109, (2015)

In the present work we carried out a phytochemical and biological investigation on three Hypericum species, i.e. Hypericum reflexum, Hypericum canariense and Hypericum grandifolium, from the Canary Islands where they are traditionally used as diuretic, wound ...

Solvent isotope effects on alkane formation by cyanobacterial aldehyde deformylating oxygenase and their mechanistic implications.

Biochemistry 53(34) , 5537-43, (2014)

The reaction catalyzed by cyanobacterial aldehyde deformylating oxygenase is of interest both because of its potential application to the production of biofuels and because of the highly unusual nature of the deformylation reaction it catalyzes. Whereas the p...

Enhancing alkane production in cyanobacterial lipid droplets: a model platform for industrially relevant compound production.

Life (Basel) 5 , 1111-26, (2015)

Cyanobacterial lipid droplets (LDs) are packed with hydrophobic energy-dense compounds and have great potential for biotechnological expression and the compartmentalization of high value compounds. Nostoc punctiforme normally accumulates LDs containing neutra...

Effects of some saturated n-alkanes on the survival of Escherichia coli resting cells in sea water.

Cytobios. 87(351) , 207-16, (1996)

The influence of some linear alkanes on the survival of Escherichia coli natural sea water was investigated. Alkanes with fifteen or more carbon atoms induced a large decrease in viability of E. coli cells in natural sea water. In this case and for concentrat...

Rapid detection of radiation-induced hydrocarbons in cooked ham.

Meat Science 90(3) , 697-700, (2012)

Solid phase microextraction (SPME) coupled with either gas chromatography-ionization flame detector (CG-FID) or multidimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (MDGC-MS) was evaluated for its ability to detect volatile hydrocarbons produced during the i...

A quick method for identifying radiolytic hydrocarbons in low-fat-containing food.

J. Sci. Food Agric. 93(3) , 479-84, (2013)

As radiation-induced alterations of the lipid fraction of foods are related to their initial fat content, concentrations of fat degradation products used as irradiation markers are expected to be lower when irradiating low-fat-containing foods. Thus the sensi...

The effect of pressure on the phase transition behavior of tridecane, pentadecane, and heptadecane: a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy study.

J. Chem. Phys. 134(14) , 144503, (2011)

The effect of pressure on the phase transition behavior of tridecane (C(13)), pentadecane (C(15)), and heptadecane (C(17)) has been investigated up to 489, 220, and 387 MPa, respectively, using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy at 25 °C. The transition ...

Rapid evaluation technique to differentiate mushroom disease-related moulds by detecting microbial volatile organic compounds using HS-SPME-GC-MS.

Anal. Bioanal. Chem 407(2) , 537-45, (2015)

Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to analyse microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOCs) of mushroom disease-related microorganisms. Mycogone perniciosa, Lecanicillum fungicola ...

Enhanced biodegradation and emulsification of crude oil and hyperproduction of biosurfactants by a gamma ray-induced mutant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Lett. Appl. Microbiol. 21(3) , 176-9, (1995)

A gamma ray-induced mutant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain S8, capable of hyperproduction of biosurfactant from hydrocarbons, was isolated and named as EBN-8. The mutant showed 3-4 times more hydrocarbon emulsification/conversion as compared to the parent wh...

Influence of oxygen supply on heptadecane mineralization by Pseudomonas nautica.

Chemosphere 41(9) , 1321-6, (2000)

The influence of different states of oxygen supply on heptadecane mineralization has been investigated in resting cell suspensions of Pseudomonas nautica. The rate of heptadecane biodegraded was constant for oxygen concentrations between 21% and 10% (v/v) (ab...
