Lipase production and purification Likhith KLIKHITHK1
Lipase (tri acyl glycerol acyl hydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the carboxyl ester bonds in tri acyl glycerols to produce di acyl glycerols, mono acyl glycerols, fatty acids and glycerol under aqueous conditions and the synthesis of esters in organic solvents.
Under the controlled conditions, lipases are able to catalyze a large number of reactions. Lipases of microbial origin are of considerable commercial importance, because of the high versatility and high stability, moreover, the advantage of being readily produced in high yields.
Many microbial lipases have been commercially available in free or immobilized form. Numerous species of bacteria (Bacillus, Pseudomonas, and Burkholderia), yeasts (Candida rugosa, Yarrowia lipolytica, and Candida antarctica) and molds (Aspergillus, Trichoderma viride) produce lipases with different enzymological properties and specificities but microbes are known to be more potent lipase producer.

ENZYMES (1).pptx pharmacognosy and PhytochemistryRakesh Barik
This document discusses several enzymes including papain, bromelain, serratiopeptidase, urokinase, streptokinase, and pepsin. For each enzyme, it provides information on the biological source, method of preparation, chemical nature, identification tests, characteristics, and uses. The enzymes discussed are involved in various functions like digestion, blood clot dissolution, and anti-inflammatory effects. The document also discusses general properties of enzymes such as their optimal pH and temperature ranges and how their activity is affected.
Antigen retrieval is a technique used to expose antigens in tissue samples that were previously masked during the tissue processing and fixation steps. There are two main antigen retrieval methods - proteolytic enzyme digestion and heat induced epitope retrieval. Proteolytic enzyme digestion uses enzymes like trypsin, pepsin, or protease to break down cross-links formed during fixation. Heat induced epitope retrieval uses heat, typically in a pressure cooker or microwave, to reverse masking by weakening calcium bonds or cleaving methylene bridges. The standard immunohistochemistry staining procedure after antigen retrieval involves blocking, primary antibody incubation, secondary antibody or streptavidin incubation, substrate application, and counterstaining.
The document summarizes an experiment that evaluated the anti-inflammatory activity of methanol extracts of Enicostemma axillare. Various assays were used to test the extract's ability to inhibit protein denaturation, protease activity, and red blood cell membrane stabilization. The results showed that the extract significantly inhibited heat-induced albumin denaturation and protected red blood cell membranes. It also exhibited significant antiproteinase activity and inhibited the enzyme lipoxygenase. These properties suggest that compounds in E. axillare may have anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting key processes involved in inflammation.
Kinetic study of free and immobilized protease from Aspergillus sp.IOSR Journals
In the present investigation partially purified alkaline protease from Aspergillus sp. As#6 and As#7 strains were entrapped in calcium alginate beads and characterized using casein as a substrate. Temperature and pH maxima of protease from As#6 strain showed no changes before and after immobilization and remained stable at 450C and pH 9, respectively. However km value was slightly shifted from 4.5mg/ml to 5 mg/ml. Proteases from As#7 strain showed shifting in pH optima to a more alkaline range (10.0) as compared with free enzyme (9.0). Optimum temperature for protease from As#7 strain showed changes after immobilization and shifted from 650C to 850C. However there was no significant effect on Km value but Vmax of immobilized protease from As#7 strain was also shifted from 200U/ml to 370U/ml. Immobilized protease from As#6 strain was reused for 3 cycles with 22% loss in its activity whereas immobilize protease from As#7 strain was reused for 3 cycles with 17% loss in its activity. Protease from As#7 strain has a higher affinity for the substrate and higher proteolysis activity than protease from As#6 strain. The present work concludes that Aspergillus As#7 strain may be a good source of industrial protease

Enzymology clinical significance of enzymes and isoenzymesrohini sane
A comprehensive presentation on Enzymology Clinical significance of Enzymes & Isoenzymes for MBBS , BDS, B Pharm & Biotechnology students to facilitate self- study.
The document discusses the main substances found in the human body, including water, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and minerals. It notes that water makes up 65% of the body, proteins 18%, lipids 10%, carbohydrates 5%, and nucleic acids 1%. Minerals comprise 1% of the body. Metabolism is defined as all the chemical reactions that take place in living organisms, and includes catabolism, which breaks down molecules, and anabolism, which builds them up. Enzymes control and speed up metabolic reactions. Transport across the cell membrane, including diffusion, osmosis, and active transport, allows materials to enter and exit cells.
Enzymes are biological catalysts that are usually proteins which increase the rate of chemical reactions without being consumed. They are very specific and function by lowering the activation energy of reactions. Enzymes work by binding substrates to form enzyme-substrate complexes, and either the "lock and key" or "induced fit" models describe this interaction. Enzyme activity can be regulated by factors like substrate concentration, products, pH and temperature changes. It can also be regulated by allosteric effectors or covalent modification. Inhibitors decrease enzyme activity by competing or non-competitively binding to the active site.
Environmental Stresses on Listeria monocytogenesMalvi Prakash
The document summarizes research on how environmental stresses impact the pathogenicity of Listeria monocytogenes. It discusses how L. monocytogenes is able to withstand stresses like salt, low temperatures, and pH levels. The research found that in response to salt stress, L. monocytogenes both represses and induces various proteins. General stress proteins and osmolyte transporters were among those induced to help the bacteria adapt. Signal transduction and surface proteins also help L. monocytogenes interact with and survive in changing environmental conditions. The conclusion discusses how a better understanding of these response mechanisms could help develop techniques to control the pathogen in food processing.

This particular slides consist of- what is Pneumothorax,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is a summary of Pneumothorax:
Pneumothorax, also known as a collapsed lung, is a condition that occurs when air leaks into the space between the lung and chest wall. This air buildup puts pressure on the lung, preventing it from expanding fully when you breathe. A pneumothorax can cause a complete or partial collapse of the lung.

Hypertension and it's role of physiotherapy in it.Vishal kr Thakur
This particular slides consist of- what is hypertension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is summary of hypertension -
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a serious medical condition that occurs when blood pressure in the body's arteries is consistently too high. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of blood vessels as the heart pumps it. Hypertension can increase the risk of heart disease, brain disease, kidney disease, and premature death.
Exploring the Benefits of Binaural Hearing: Why Two Hearing Aids Are Better T...Ear Solutions (ESPL)
Binaural hearing using two hearing aids instead of one offers numerous advantages, including improved sound localization, enhanced sound quality, better speech understanding in noise, reduced listening effort, and greater overall satisfaction. By leveraging the brain’s natural ability to process sound from both ears, binaural hearing aids provide a more balanced, clear, and comfortable hearing experience. If you or a loved one is considering hearing aids, consult with a hearing care professional at Ear Solutions hearing aid clinic in Mumbai to explore the benefits of binaural hearing and determine the best solution for your hearing needs. Embracing binaural hearing can lead to a richer, more engaging auditory experience and significantly improve your quality of life.
2. ENZYMES - DEFINITION
Enzymes are biological catalysts that accelerates a chemical reaction.
ENZYME HISTOCHEMISTRY
Utilising histochemical techniques to demonstrate enzyme in
tissues.
3. PRESERVATION
For good demonstration, maximum amount of enzyme activity
should be preserved - with accurate localisation and by preventing
diffusion of enzymes.
Lyo-enzymes: dissolved in cytoplasm; likely to diffuse
Desmo-enzymes: attached to cytoplasmic constituents; less likely
to diffuse
4. SAMPLE PREPARATION FOR ENZYME HISTOCHEMISTRY
Fresh preparation or frozen/cryostat/freeze dried preparations are
necessary.
Autopsy tissue: unsuitable for demonstration of enzymes.
Cold fixative should be used to preserve maximum enzyme activity
Eg: Ice cold formalin, ice cold alcohol
5. FACTORS AFFECTING ENZYME ACTIVITY
Temperature:
optimal temperature in EHC is 4°C -30 °C
PH
optimum pH-7
ALP-9.2
ACP-5.0
6. Inhibitors
Specific Inhibitors :eserine for choline esterase
Non-Specific Inhibitors: heat
Competitive Inhibitors: malonate ions for succinate dehydrogenase
Activators:Mg ions for ALP
7. 2 TERMS USED IN ENZYME TECHNIQUE
Primary Reaction Product: the product of the reaction of an
enzyme on a substrate
Final Reaction Product: the product of an insoluble uncolored PRP,
which has been made colored or opaque
8. METHODS OF DEMONSTRATION
1. Simultaneous coupling
2. Post Incubation coupling
3. Self- Coloured substrate
4. Intra-molecular Rearrangement
5. Metal Precipitation
11. Advantages:
Optimal pH for enzyme substrate reaction and possibly different
pH for coupling can be achieved.
Deleterious effect of diazonium salts on enzyme substrate reaction
can be avoided.
14. METAL PRECIPITATION
• A type of Simultaneous Coupling but uses
Metallic lons instead of Diazonium salts.
15. USE OF CONTROLS
Substrates, Diazonium salts and other components deteriorate with time
leading to false positives and false negative reactions.
Therefore, Control sections should be carried together with test sections.
Positive Controls: to demonstrate that all reagents are working
Negative Controls: prepared by
a) destroying the enzyme in the test section by immersing in boiling
water for 15 minutes
b) by including a specific enzyme inhibitors
c) By omitting the substrate from the incubation medium
18. DETERMINATION OF ALKALINE PHOSPHATASES
Optimal activity at 9-9.6 pH
Activated by Mg, Mn and Co ions
Cyanide and Cysteine inhibits ALP-ase activity- thus, incorporated
in incubation medium as a control
METHODS
1. Gomori’s Calcium Phosphate method (Metal Substitution)
2. Azo Dye Coupling methods – Simultaneous Coupling – Post
Coupling
20. Incubation mixture:
1. Tris Buffer pH 9.1
2. Distilled Water
3. Substrate Solution (Naphthol phosphoric acid)
4. Fast Garnet GBC salt
21. Procedure:
Fix sections in methanol or cold acetone in freezing temperature for 30 sec
Rinse in Distilled water.
Keep the section in the incubation mixture for 1-2 hrs at RT.
Rinse in water.
Counter stain with hematoxylin
Mount in glycerine.
