Recently biocementation has got attention of many researchers worldwide as one of the most potent techniques for sustainable construction. Several studies have been carried out worldwide on biocementation by urea hydrolysis. Biocementation by bacterially induced calcium carbonate precipitation by different bacterial species has been among the most widely researched areas in this field.

Proteins often harness extensive motions of domains and subunits to promote their function. Deciphering how these movements impact activity is key for understanding life's molecular machinery. The enzyme adenylate kinase is an intriguing example for this relationship; it ensures efficient catalysis by large-scale domain motions that lead to the enclosure of the bound substrates ATP and AMP.

Objectives: Soybeans have various positive effects on health, including anti-inflammatory and preventing kidney damage. There is concern regarding the phytoestrogen content due to the high isoflavone content in soybeans. Various forms of soybean processing have been tried; in this study, the hydrolysis method will be used to obtain the active substance Arginine-Glycine-Aspartate (RGD) tripeptide in soybean protein hydrolyzed by bromelain (SPHB).

The catalytic action of enzymes of a cascade trapped within a mesoporous electrode material is simultaneously energized, controlled and observed through the efficient, reversible electrochemical NAD(P)(H) recycling catalyzed by one of the enzymes. In their nanoconfined state, nicotinamide cofactors are tightly channeled current carriers, mediating multi-step reactions in either direction (oxidation or reduction) with a rapid response time. By incorporating a hydrogen‑borrowing enzyme pair, the internal action of which opposes the external voltage bias driving oxidation or reduction, a reduction process can be performed under overall oxidizing conditions, and vice versa.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the collagen fiber structure of the subcutaneous fascia, a connective tissue layer between the skin and epimysium.
Methods: Fascia samples with varying extensibility were examined using biochemical and microscopic methods.
Results: Loose fascia, the more extensible type, displayed sparsely distributed collagen fibers, while dense fascia showed tightly packed collagen fiber bundles.
