Application of n-dodecane as an oxygen vector to enhance the activity of fumarase in recombinant Escherichia coli: role of intracellular microenvironment

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (3), 2018
Abstract The effect of the intracellular microenvironment in the presence of an oxygen vector during expression of a fusion protein in Escherichia coli was studied. Three organic solutions at different concentration were chosen as oxygen vectors for fumarase expression. The addition of n-dodecane did not...

Hydrophobicity test in mutans Streptococci

Acta odontol. latinoam; 23 (3), 2010
Kinetic hydrophobic measurements were performed by confronting 40 mutans streptococci from thirty 10- to 20-year-old patients with 200 ml hexadecane (Sigma). Fourteen patients had high dental caries risk (Group A), dmft + DMFT >5 with 3 or more active caries, and 16 had low dental caries risk (Group B...
