Immobilization of yeast cell walls with surface displayed laccase from Streptomyces cyaneus within dopamine-alginate beads for dye decolorization.

High amounts of toxic textile dyes are released into the environment due to coloring and wastewaters treatment processes' inefficiency. To remove dyes from the environment and wastewaters, researchers focused on applying immobilized enzymes due to mild reaction conditions and enzyme nontoxicity. Laccases are oxidases with wide substrate specificity, capable of degradation of many different dye types.

Expression, purification and immunological characterization of recombinant nucleocapsid protein fragment from SARS-CoV-2.

Serological testing is important method for diagnosis of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Nucleocapsid (N) protein is the most abundant virus derived protein and strong immunogen. We aimed to find its efficient, low-cost production.
