- Abstract:
- ... Linoleate 13-lipoxygenase from Burkholderia thailandensis was expressed in Escherichia coli for the production of 13-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (13-HODE), an antiseptic emulsifier. Linoleate 13-lipoxygenase in cells had higher thermal stability than the purified enzyme. To increase 13-HODE production, recombinant cells were permeabilized by solvents, detergents, salts, and other chemicals. The en ...

- Abstract:
- ... A perfect wound covering should prevent dryness of the wound and provide a favourable moist milieu at the wound interface allowing gas access but act as a barrier to the dirt and microorganisms. It is imperative to ensure early restoration of wound without scar formation at the site. Topical application of antiseptic preparation is the best for wound treatment because of its direct action. Zinc ox ...

- ... The excessive use of antibiotics in both human and veterinary medicine has contributed to the development and rapid spread of drug resistance in bacteria. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have become a tool of choice that can be used to treat these resistant bacteria. Several studies have shown that AgNPs have antibacterial and wound healing properties. In this study, we evaluated the biological activ ...

- Abstract:
- ... The genus Eucalyptus L'Heritier comprises about 900 species, of which more than 300 species contain volatile essential oil in their leaves. About 20 species, within these, have a high content of 1,8‐cineole (more than 70%), commercially used for the production of essential oils in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. However, Eucalyptus is extensively planted for pulp, plywood and solid woo ...
