One new betaenone, theissenoic acid (1), together with three new acetogenins, theissenolactones A-C (2-4, resp.), were isolated from the fermented broth of Theissenia cinerea 89091602 isolated in Taiwan. The structures of 1-4 were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. Biological tests revealed that 3 and 4 exhibited moderate growth-inhibitory activities against A549 lung cancer cell line with GI(50) values of 14.9 and 47.9 μM, respectively.

Primary sludge can serve as an internal carbon source for denitrification in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). This study explores the use of alkaline treatment to produce a fermentation broth from primary sludge, which predominantly contains short-chain volatile fatty acids (VFAs), with acetic acid and propionic acid making up over 65% of the total VFAs. The performance of this fermentation broth as a sole carbon source for denitrification was compared with that of sodium acetate, acetic acid, methanol, and ethanol in both biofilm and activated sludge systems.

For a long time, grass carp culture in China has been severely affected by Grass Carp hemorrhagic disease caused by Grass Carp Reovirus (GCRV). At present, vaccines have been widely used for protecting aquatic organisms against infectious diseases, among which oral immunization with Lactobacillus casei is safe and highly effective. This vaccination route has the advantages of easy administration and noninvasive delivery.

Hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP) is used to increase the biochemical methane potential (BMP) of food waste (FW). The formation of melanoidins will seriously affect the microbial activity and methane production during anaerobic digestion (AD). Based on spectroscopic methods, similarities and heterogeneity of melanoidins from different sources were investigated, and the wide peak band (260-350 nm) in the ultraviolet region and the differences of amide groups of fructose-amino acid system, fructose-casein system and FW system were revealed.

Protein adsorption to poly(ethylenimine)-modified Sepharose FF: IX. Further studies on counterion effects and behavior in therapeutic protein separation.

J Chromatogr A

December 2024

Department of Biochemical Engineering, School of Chemical Engineering and Technology and Key Laboratory of Systems Bioengineering and Frontiers Science Center for Synthetic Biology (Ministry of Education), Tianjin University, Tianjin 300350, PR China. Electronic address:

Our previous studies on protein adsorption onto anion-exchangers of poly(ethylenimine) (PEI)-grafted Sepharose FF (PEI-Sepharose) proved their significantly improved performance over the commercial nongrafting anion-exchangers such as Q Sepharose FF, and it was found the protein adsorption behavior on PEI-Sepharose was more sensitive to counterions (Cl, SCN, HPO and SO). However, the complicated role of counterions has not been well interpreted due to their distinct chemical and physical characteristics. Thus, we have further studied the counterion effects by adding two halide ions (F and Br) to explore the effects of the three halide ions on bovine serum albumin adsorption and the results were compared with previous data.
