Cellobiohydrolase II of Trichoderma reesei was produced in laboratory and pilot scale using a transformant strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae harbouring a multicopy expression plasmid. Different strategies were compared for concentration and partial purification of the enzyme produced in a 200 1 pilot cultivation. After efficient separation of biomass and sub-cellular particulate matter, a combination of ultrafiltration and adsorbent treatment for removal of protein impurities was used to provide a concentrate for chromatographic purification. Effective purification of the CBH II protein was obtained by passing the concentrate through a column of DEAE Sepharose, on which almost all the yeast proteins were adsorbed. The purified enzyme reacted with antibodies prepared against T. reesei CBH II and catalyzed partial solubilization of crystalline cellulose to soluble sugars.

Greywater, originating from kitchen sinks and toilets, constitutes 75-80 % of the domestic wastewater produced in homes and can be reclaimed for non-potable uses. This study synthesized novel sludge-derived aluminosilicates and alginate-polyethyleneimine (PEI) biochar composites. The aluminosilicates offer a sustainable approach to sludge management, while alginate-polyethyleneimine presents a green biochar modification approach.

Background: Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a rare congenital neurocutaneous disorder, often complicated by epilepsy. Approximately 50% of patients with SWS with epilepsy develop drug-resistant seizures, leaving limited treatment options. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a known therapy for refractory epilepsy, modulating neural activity to reduce seizures.
