Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is the major etiological agent contributing to the development of hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD). There are not any global available vaccines or antibody drugs against EV71 released yet. In this study, we perform the virus immunization in a cost-effective and convenient approach by preparing virus particles from size exclusion and immunization of chicken.

Prodigiosin (Pg), a secondary metabolism produced by numerous bacterial species, is known as anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, immunosuppressant, antioxidant, antimalarial properties. Pg has been tested for antitumor activity in many different cancer cell lines but studies in LU-1, KB cell lines, and tumor-bearing mice are still limited. In this study, QBN VTCC 910026 strain (GenBank: KX674054.

White biotechnologies have several challenges to overcome in order to become a viable industrial process. Achieving highly concentrated lignocellulose materials and releasing fermentable substrates, with controlled kinetics in order to regulate micro-organism activity, present major technical and scientific bottlenecks. The degradation of the main polymeric fractions of lignocellulose into simpler molecules is a prerequisite for an integrated utilisation of this resource in a biorefinery concept.

This work combines physical and biochemical analyses to scrutinize liquefaction and saccharification of complex lignocellulose materials. A multilevel analysis (macroscopic: rheology, microscopic: particle size and morphology and molecular: sugar product) was conducted at the lab-scale with three matrices: microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), Whatman paper (WP) and extruded paper-pulp (PP). A methodology to determine on-line viscosity is proposed and validated using the concept of Metzner and Otto (1957) and Rieger and Novak's (1973).
