    Removal of aqueous pentachlorophenol by horseradish peroxidase in the presence of surfactants

    An important issue in the oxidation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) by the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is enzyme inactivation during the reaction. This study was initiated to investigate the ability of two ...

    Protein adsorption on Ion exchange resin: Estimation of equilibrium isotherm parameters from batch kinetic data

    The simple Langmuir isotherm is frequently employed to describe the equilibrium behavior of protein adsorption on a wide variety of adsorbents. The two adjustable parameters of the Langmuir isotherm—the satura...

    Optimization of carotenoid production by Rhodotorula glutinis using statistical experimental design

    A two-step optimization strategy of statistical experimental design was employed to enhance carotenoid production from sugar cane molasses (SCM) in the yeast Rhodotorula glutinis. In the first step, a fractional ...

    Reusability of seaweed biosorbent in multiple cycles of cadmium adsorption and desorption

    The uptake of cadmium by the seaweed Sargassum siliquosum was investigated over five consecutive cycles of adsorption and desorption with HCl as the desorbent. A large fraction of the cadmium loaded in the fir...
