Wolkov et al.‚ (2014) cited Penicillium canescens is a filamentous fungus that typically does not secrete sufficient levels of cellulase activity. Cellobiohydrolase I (CBH) of P. canescens (PcCel7A) homologously cloned and then expressed into a host strain RN3-11-7 (niaD-). The recombinant enzyme showed maximum activity at pH 4.0–4.5. They found that PcCel7A was stable at 50 °C and pH 4.5 for 3 hours‚ while at 60°C after 30 min of incubation it lost 45% of activity. The recombinant enzyme showed

Chapter 8 - Need and Classification of Industries Life Skills Industrial facilities across the globe have already released over 5 million tonnes of toxic chemicals. These chemicals are production-related wastes and pollutants. Many industries also emit high amount of carbon dioxide gas. Other gaseous pollutants produced by industries across the globe include carbon monoxide‚ sulfur dioxide‚ chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)‚ nitrogen oxides‚ etc. Organise a group activity to prepare a poster or model to

As a fossil fuel its combustion contributes CO2 to the atmosphere‚ and so contributes to climate change. The particulates it emits on combustion contribute to inner-city pollution. Its extraction around the world is a dirty process‚ despite some half-hearted efforts to convince us otherwise. And the global appetite for oil-based fuels makes the environment‚ or indigenous people‚ only a secondary consideration in the oil business. To cap it all‚ most oil production is from politically unstable regions

Perhaps this stems from me maintaining a relatively cynical mentality when approaching a variety of topics. It is important to note that in general‚ this attitude does not necessarily extend itself to being at a point of no return. However‚ the sheer idea of the unrelenting progression of globalization in countless core and semi-periphery/periphery nations is worrisome when considering

Genetically modified foods are foods produced from organisms that have had specific changes introduced into their DNA using the methods of genetic engineering. These techniques have allowed for the introduction of new crop traits as well as a far greater control over a food ’s genetic structure than previously afforded by methods such as selective breeding and mutation breeding. Conventional plant breeding methods can be very time consuming and are often not very accurate. But genetic engineering
