Lactococcus lactis as a safe and inexpensive source of bioactive silver composites.

This research develops a safe, inexpensive, and more accessible source for synthesis of silver nanoparticles. The bioactive silver composites synthesized by Lactococcus lactis 56 KY484989 (LCLB56-AgCs) were characterized by various physico-chemical techniques and investigated for their antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity. The average amount of nanoparticles was 0.

Preparation of an improved hydrophilic monolith to make trypsin-immobilized microreactors.

In the present work the preparation of capillary-based microreactors with immobilized trypsin was investigated. The monolithic support was synthesized from 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) as a functional monomer and N,N'-methylenebis(acrylamide) (MBA) as a hydrophilic crosslinker. Two monomers contents in the polymerization mixture (27% and 35%) at the ratio of HEMA:MBA=3:2 were tested.

Preparation and evaluation of dual-enzyme microreactor with co-immobilized trypsin and chymotrypsin.

The preparation of capillary microfluidic reactor with co-immobilized trypsin and chymotrypsin with the use of a low-cost commercially available enzymatic reagent (containing these proteases) as well as the evaluation of its usefulness in proteomic research were presented. The monolithic copolymer synthesized from glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EDMA) was used as a support. Firstly, the polymerization conditions were optimized and the monolithic bed was synthesized in the fused silica capillary modified with 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (γ-MAPS).
