Production of milk-coagulating protease by fungus through solid state fermentation using wheat bran as the low-cost substrate.

Proteases are enzymes that hydrolyze peptide bonds present in proteins and peptides. They are widely used for various industrial applications, such as in the detergent, food, and dairy industries. Cheese is one of the most important products of the dairy industry, and the coagulation stage is crucial during the cheese-making process.

A new trypsin inhibitor from Centrosema plumieri effective against digestive proteases from Tribolium castaneum, an eco-friendly alternative.

Tribolium castaneum, also known as the red flour beetle, is a polyphagous pest that seriously damages agricultural products, including stored and processed grains. Researchers have aimed to discover alternative pest control mechanisms that are less harmful to the ecosystem than those currently used. We conduct the purification and characterization of a protease inhibitor from C.

Embryonic development of Rhynchophorus palmarum (Coleoptera: Curculionidae): dynamics of energy source utilization.

Energy homeostasis is an essential process during oogenesis, nutrients are required for suitable embryonic development, and recently, studies have investigated metabolic activity during this process. This work aims the investigation of dynamics of energy source utilization of Rhynchophorus palmarum during embryogenesis. For this, we first evaluated the mobilization kinetics of the lipids and glycogen.
