Methods for Removal of Rotenone from Brebra (Millettia ferruginea) Seed, Oil and Defatted Flour under Different Treatment Conditions
Abstract: The main objective was to develop and determine the rotenone removal methods from different samples of defatted flour and refined oil. To remove rotenone, ethanol, pH gradient treatment, cooking and roasting were used and rotenone was determined by HPLC analysis. Most of the rotenone (0.701%) from non-defatted flour is lost during defatting (0.37%) and refinery process of oil (0.02%). From raw seed, 84.1, 85.1 and 97.3% rotenone was removed by …

CRISPR-Cas System: Next Generation Genome Editing Tool
Abstract: CRISPR-Cas system provides sequence specific adaptive immunity against phages and mobile genetic elements. Resistance is acquired following phage infection or plasmid uptake when short specific sequence is added into CRSIPR array. This complex guides cRNA to target complementary DNA fragments and target its degradation. CRISPR array is then transcribed and processed into cRNA which forms complex with cas protein. The ability of CRISPR-Cas system to induce site specific DNA breaks …
