The objective of this study was the development of affinity adsorbent particles with the appropriate characteristics to be applied in protein purification using the affinity ultrafiltration method. To prepare affinity macroligands Cibacron Blue 3GA, as a ligand molecule, was immobilized by covalent bonding onto yeast cell walls, the support material or matrix. The maximum attachment of the ligand to the matrix was 212 μmol/g (ligand dry weight/yeast dry weight). Lysozyme was selected as the protein model for the adsorption studies. Its adsorption onto the matrix without ligand and matrix with attached ligand were investigated batch-wise. The adsorption equilibrium isotherms appeared to follow a typical Langmuir isotherm. The maximum adsorption capacity (q(m)) of the Cell-Cibacron macroligand for lysozyme was 110 mg/ml of wet macroligand. The adsorbent was also employed for the separation of lysozyme from hen egg white. High purity lysozyme was obtained.

Purines such as ATP are regulatory transmitters in motility of the gastrointestinal tract. The aims of this study were to propose functional roles of purinergic regulation of esophageal motility. An isolated segment of the rat esophagus was placed in an organ bath, and mechanical responses were recorded using a force transducer.

Peroxidases have received considerable attention as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly catalyst for bioremediation. Their rapid activity loss under harsh environmental conditions and inability to be used repetitively limit their exploitation in real-world wastewater treatment. First, a peroxidase was produced extracellularly by Bacillus mojavensis TH309 and purified 8.

Article Synopsis
- Purines like ATP play a crucial role in regulating the movement of the gastrointestinal tract, particularly in esophageal motility.
- Researchers conducted an experiment using isolated rat esophagus segments, finding that ATP induces relaxation of esophageal smooth muscle after precontraction.
- The relaxation mechanism involves the activation of P2Y receptors and the opening of ATP-dependent potassium channels, while certain receptor antagonists can inhibit this effect.

Textile industries discharge up to 280,000 tons of dye waste annually, resulting in global pollution and health risks. In Nigeria and other African countries, persistent dyes threaten aquatic life and human health. This study introduces a cost-effective, enzyme-mediated bioremediation alternative using a novel laccase from the cyanobacteriumMicrocystis flos-aquae.
