Pseudomonas aeruginosa synthesizes an exopolysaccharide called alginate in response to environmental conditions. Alginate serves to protect the bacteria from adversity in its surroundings and also enhances adhesion to solid surfaces. Transcription of the alginate biosynthetic genes is induced upon a
Ambroxol is known to promote bronchial secretion and is used as an expectorant. Previous studies had suggested that high doses of ambroxol could reduce the plasma uric acid concentration. The present study was undertaken to confirm this finding, to determine its dose-response relationship and to ide
The Cu, Cd and Zn sorption capacity of formaldehyde-crosslinked seaweed biomass (Ascophyllum no&sum : FCAN) was studied using equilibrium methodology. The shape of sorption isotherms and biosorbent mass losses indicated that in the first uptake cydle the biosorbent leached cellular polysaccharides
