Introduction :
Antibiotics are antimicrobial agents produced naturally by other microbes (usually fungi or bacteria)
The first antibiotic was discovered in 1896 by Ernest Duchesne and in 1928 "rediscovered" by Alexander Fleming from the filamentous fungus Penicilium notatum.
The antibiotic substance, named penicillin, was not purified until the 1940s (by Florey and Chain), just in time to be used at the end of the second world war.
Penicillin was the first important commercial product produced by an aerobic, submerged fermentation
In the field of biotechnology there are many industrial applications that result in biotech products that we use everyday at home. Some of these are food science applications that utilize enzymes to produce or make improvements in the quality of different foods. In the dairy industry, some enzymes are required for the production of cheeses, yogurt and other dairy products, while others are used in a more specialized fashion to improve texture or flavour.
Isolation and Purification of Enzymes
Enzymes are unstable molecules with a definite physico chemical organization. Even a slight change in this organization reduces the activity of enzyme and sometimes the enzyme is totally inactivated.
Therefore, the enzymes have to be isolated under controlled conditions of pH, ionic strength and temperature. Since they are proteinaceous in nature, standard extraction and purification procedures for enzymes are the same as those used for proteins except that the activity of the enzyme is assayed at each of the following four steps of extraction and purification.
Purification of Enzymes - Enzyme purification involves three steps, electrophoresis. These three techniques described in the following text
1.Dialysis
2.Chromatography.
The 1st recombinant drug .
A protein chain or peptide hormone.
A dimer of an A-chain & a B-chain linked together by disulfide bonds, composed of 110 aa & molecular mass is 5808 Da.
A product of commercially important fermentation process that produce recombinant products.
Naturally produced by beta cells of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas & by Brockmann body in some teleost fish.
The preproinsulin precursor of insulin is encoded by the INS gene.
Important for metabolism and utilization of energy from the ingested nutrients – especially glucose.
Failure of control of insulin level causes diabetes mellitus.

Penicillin is one of the most commonly used antibiotics globally, as it has a wide range of clinical indications. Penicillin is effective against many different types of infections involving gram-positive cocci, gram-positive rods (e.g., Listeria), most anaerobes, and gram-negative cocci (e.g., Neisseria). Importantly, certain bacterial species have obtained penicillin resistance, including enterococci. Enterococci infections now receive treatment with a combination of penicillin and streptomycin or gentamicin. Certain gram-negative rods are also resistant to penicillin due to penicillin’s poor ability to penetrate the porin channel. However, later generations of broad-spectrum penicillins are effective against gram-negative rods. Second-generation penicillins (ampicillin and amoxicillin) can also penetrate the porin channel, making these drugs effective against Proteus mirabilis, Shigella, H. influenzae, Salmonella, and E. coli. Third-generation penicillins such as carbenicillin and ticarcillin are also able to penetrate gram-negative bacterial porin channels. Fourth-generation penicillins such as piperacillin are effective against the same bacterial strains as third-generation penicillins as well as Klebsiella, enterococci, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Bacteroides fragilis.
Amylase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into sugars.
Amylase is present in the saliva of humans and some other mammals, where it begins the chemical process of digestion. Foods that contain large amount of starch but less amount of sugar, such as rice and potatoes, may acquire a slightly sweet taste as they are chewed because amylase degrades some of their starch into sugar.
α- amylase is a protein enzyme that hydrolyses alpha bonds of large, alpha - linked polysaccharides, such as starch and glycogen, yielding glucose and maltose. It is a major form of amylase found in humans and other mammals.
Many of the enzymes used in the industries are extracellular derived from microorganisms. Among various extracellular enzymes, alpha amylase ranks first in terms of commercial exploitation.
Bacteria and fungi secrets amylases to the outside of the cells to carryout extracellular digestions when they have broken down the soluble starch, the soluble end products such as Glucose or Maltose are absorbed into their cells.
The industrially important Bacillus strains which are extensively used to produce alpha amylase, are, B. licheniformis, B. subtilis etc. B. amyloliquefaciens
Bacillus licheniformis is a Gram-positive endospore forming organism that can be isolated from soils and plant material all over the world.
This organism is used extensively for large-scale industrial production of exoenzymes as it can secrete large quantities of proteins of up to 20–25 g/l.
The use of the submerged culture is advantageous because of the ease of sterilization and its process control.
The objective of this work was to study the pattern and the comparison of α-amylase production by using two strains of Bacillus licheniformis, MTCC 2617 and MTCC 2618 using four different substrates starch, rice, wheat and ragi powder as carbon source.
Ragi or finger millet is round, soft yet firm and rich brown in color. It is probably the only edible solid you are advised to swallow not chew. A gram of ragi has 72% carbohydrate, 3.6% fiber, 7.3% of protein, vitamin B and a good combination of minerals.
Bioconversion of Penicillin to CephalosporinIOSR Journals
Cephalosporins are known as 3rd generation broad spectrum Beta lactam antibiotics, which can also be produced synthetically. Commonly, chemical ring expansion followed by an enzymatic removal of the phenylacetyl side chain is commonly employed to convert penicillin G into 7-aminodeacetoxycephalosporanic acid, the precursor for the manufacture of semisynthetic cephalosporins. This process requires several steps, is expensive and highly polluting. Thus there is a need to device a simple biological route to replace the chemical process. A mutant of Streptomyces clavuligerus NP1 was reported to converts Penicillin G to Deacetoxycephalosporin G (DAOG;phenylacetyl-7-aminodeacetoxycephalosporanic acid) enzymatically[5,8] . This enzyme, deacetoxycephalosporin synthase has the potential for the large scale transformation of Penicillin G to deacetoxycephalosporin. The present work studies the conditions required for efficient transformation of Penicillin G to Deacetoxycephalosporin using the wild type strain Streptomyces clavuligerus . Detection of cephalosporin was carried out using various methods. Additionally succinic acid formation was also studied as it could be used as a commercially important by product of the transformation. Deacetoxycephalosporin synthase also extracted and partially purified and characterised.

Production of α-amylase using new strain of Bacillus polymyxa isolated from s...IOSR Journals
In this study, a new amylase producer strain was isolated from sweet potato tuber. This strain was able to grow at 37 °C and produce α-amylase in high quantity compared to other standard strain cultures. In the first part, cultivation in shake flask in standard medium was carried out to give complete information about the growth and production kinetics of this strain. The results clearly demonstrate that the isolated strain is able to production α-amylase in submerged culture with concentration up to 2050 kat/L after 20 h cultivation. Furthermore, medium optimization was carried out by changing the starch concentration and cell cultivation in medium of mixed carbon source (composed of starch and glucose of ratio 15:5 g/g) to enhance the production process and to increase the growth rate. The volumetric and specific α-amylase production in this optimized medium were 4550 kat/L and 1060 kat/g, respectively. Further improvement in enzyme production process was achieved by scaling up the process from shake flask to 3-L stirred tank bioreactor under non-oxygen limiting condition. The maximal volumetric and specific α-amylase productions in bioreactor batch culture were 5210 kat/L and 1095kat/g, respectively, after only 14 h cultivation

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

2. What is insulin?
Source: Beta cells of Islets of Langerhens.
Chemistry: Peptide-51 AA, A Chain 21 AA, B chain 30 AA.
MW: 5808.( First high MW hormone to be by the G.Eng)
Half life: 5-10 Min.
Basal Level: 3ng/ml or < 10 mlU/ml.
Water soluble.
Fate: Endocytosis & Proteolysis (80% in liver & kidney).
Species Specificity: Bovine & Human.
Prolong action: Zn & Protamine.
It exist in Zn crystals as hexamers & monomer.
When diluted in the circulation , it exist as monomer.
4. Insulin & Diabetes:
Type I- Here no insulin is produced(IDDM or Juvenile)
Type II- Here insulin is produced in little quantity than
actually needed (INDDM or Maturity onset).
5. History of Insulin Discovery &
Production:
In 1921, Canadian Scientist Frederic G. Banting & Charles H. Best
purified Insulin from Dogs pancreas at Connaught Laboratories in
University of Toronto .Later it extracted from Cattle & Pig also.
On May 30, 1922, Eli Lilly signed an agreement to pay royalties to
the University to increase production.
First bottles contained U-10 Insulin.
3 to 5 cc were injected at a time .
Pain & abscesses were common until
purer U-40 became available.
In 1982, The first licensed drug produced using
recombinant DNA technology was human
insulin, which was developed by Genentech
& licensed as well as marketed by Eli Lily.
9. Why E.coli ?
Cows & pig – immunogenic.
Yeast cells –costly.
Plant cells – not fully developed.
E.coli – Simple, well-understood genetics.
its very easy to manipulate.
culturing cost is minimal.
high level of expression.
fermentation easy to scale up.
inclusion bodies may be easy to purify.
10. Methods of insulin production:
There two main methods exits for the production of
recombinant human insulin from genetically modified
bacterial cultures:
Two chain method (both A & B chain are synthesized
by separate E. coli plasmid) .
Proinsulin method (intracellular or secreted).
The proinsulin method is currently the most
efficient method because, single isolation & isolation
steps involved.
11. Innoculum preparation:
According to design process :
six 200 ml test tubes need to grow for initial culture of
proinsulin producing bacteria
1L of tryptic soy broth
.5g of kanamycin monosulfate
5g of the genetically altered E .coli
Grow for 24 hrs at 37oc
Then placed with a in bioreactor to promote further
growth & proinsulin production.
12. Media preparation:
The E. coli must be placed in a mixture containing the
essential building blocks for growth, including carbon,
nitrogen, phosphorus.
1.Bioreactor with 23L total volume & 16L working volume.
2.The 1L of E.coli & depleted growth medium is mixed with
9L of growth media in bioreactor.( for C- glycerol & yeast
extract, N- A.sulphate & thiamine,)
3.Buffer: pota. dihydrogen phosphate & dipota. phosphate.
4.pH: at 7 .
5.Other nutrients included in the broth are Na. citrate,
Mg. sulphate, a trace element solution, & a vitamin solution.
6.The oxygen tension is also monitored to be kept at a tension
level of 30 %.
13.
14. Fermentation process of insulin
production:
1.Fermentation: The first of the process is to grow enough of the
proinsulin producing E. coli bacteria so as to acquire a sufficient
amount of insulin per process .
In order to do this an original amount of E. coli cells
containing the plasmid for proinsulin production will be
grown in test tubes containing tryptic soy broth & kanamycin
monosulphate.
All of the accomplished by placing the original growth mixture into
a bioreactor in which the parameters can be controlled for
maximum cell growth & insulin production.
Within a bioreactor the temperature , PH, foam, & feed can be
controlled automatically to yield maximum result.

31 hour growth phase
pH 7
37 C
16. 2.Centrifugation: Here used for four times throughout the
process .
Equipment: Avanti J-HC
i) Cell isolation: The first steps in insulin
production is the isolation of the bacterium
containing proinsulin inclusion bodies,
this process also called cell harvesting.
cell harvesting could be used including filtration
& centrifugation.
Parameter: 7500g for 10 min.
ii) Inclusion body separation: Proinsulin from rest of cell debris by
centrifugation or reverse osmosis.
Parameter: 15000g for 30 min.
iii) Additional Separation: for removal of reagents.
Parameter: 17700g for 33 min.
iv) Volume reduction: Prior to downstream purification.
Parameter: 17700g for 33min.
17. 3. Cell disruption- Homogenization: By high pressure or alkali
treatment.
Equipment: Nano DeBEE Electric Blade- type Homogenizer.
Parameter: homogenizer supplies pressure of 45,000 PSI
& Flow rate:150ml/min ( 3L E.coli cell mixture for 20 min)
18. 4. Centrifugation: Same as previous.
5. Solubilize inclusion bodies: Solubilization of inclusion bodies is
carried out by addition of a denaturing agent such as urea or
guaminidinium-HCL (GdmHCL).these agent denature the fusion
proteins composing the inclusion bodies.
Parameter: Stirring for 6hr at 37 C
8M Urea added.
6 Sulfitolysis: Sulfitolysis involves addition of –SO3 groups to the
reduced sulfur residues on cysteines of proinsulin polypeptides,
preventing the formation of potentially incorrect disulfide bonds
during the solubilization and early purification steps prior to
correct refolding of the proteins.
Incorrect disulfide bond formation during the solubilization and
renaturation processes of proinsulin production accounts for a
significant decrease in percentage yield .
20. 7. Centrifugation: Same as previous.
8. Dialysis: Effectively removes denaturants (urea, beta-
mercaptoethanol or DDT) & dissolved contaminants ( buffer-
tris-HCL, & solubilizing agents).
Equipment: Spectra/par 1 membrane,MWCO 6-8000.
Parameters: 4 repetitions
Washing buffer:10mM Tris-HCl(pH 8).
9.Renaturation: To maximize correct bond formation.
Parameters: Stirring for 20hr at 4 C
1M glycine NaOH (pH 10.5+)
18:1 molal ratio of B-mercaptoethanol to fusion protein
21. 10. Centrifugation: same as previous.
11.Purification:
i).Affinity chromatography: isolation of proinsulin peptide
from fusion protein, further purification is required to
produce an insulin product pure enough for patient use.
Equipment: IgG-Sepharose column
SDS-PAGE
Superdex 75 PC 3.2/10
Parameters: 0.3M acetic acid added until pH of 8 is reached
Ammonium acetate
200mM sodium phosphate
22. ii) Site-specific cleavage: two enzymes-
trypsin &
carboxypeptidase B- its used to cleave the proinsulin at
specific site & convert the proinsulin to native insulin &
C-peptide.
Its was also the only method for cleaving the proinsulin.
Parameters: additional of cleavage : Trypsin & carboxypeptidase B,
Acetonitrile, Trifluoroacetic acid (PH 3).
iii) Reverse Phase Chromatography:
Very effective for purification of C-peptide & human insulin
than Reverse Phase liquid Chromatography, due to high
pressure , which increase the speed & purity of C- peptide
& human insulin.
23. Equipment : Kromasil C-8
iv)Polishing: Zn+3 complexing and saline dilution: To keep
insulin useful for longer periods of time is by blocking its
immediate use by cells , blocking the liver from removing it ,
& stabilizing the protein while in the blood stream.
Storage: At 4oC, for not to allow the insulin to completely
come out of solution.
