Recombinant Lactobacillus helveticus PJ4-Down Regulates TLR4 Mediated Inflammatory Responses in Sucrose Induced Diabetic Rats: A Novel Therapeutic Approach
Abstract: High sucrose diet (HSD) is known to induce type 2 diabetes. Recombinant Lactobacillus helveticus PJ4 was constructed to express the InuJ gene under the xylose promoter resulting in the secretion of inulosucrase enzyme in gastrointestinal tract which polymerizes the fructose moiety of sucrose to inulin type fructans. L. helveticus (pSLP-InuJ-Vhb) transformant (LHI) was intragastrically administered to rats fed with HSD diet. The composition of fecal microbiota and short-chain fatty acids …

Growth Related Production of Poly-ß-Hydroxybutyrate by Azotobacter chroococcum Soil Isolate/Mutant using N, P, and Cane Molasses
Abstract: Soil isolate Azotobacter chroococcum ABR 51 produced a large amount of Poly-ß-Hydroxybutyrate (PHB) during growth in a chemically defined medium using cane molasses as carbon source. Nutritional requirements and cultural conditions for the optimal production of PHB by this strain under laboratory conditions were determined using inorganic, complex organic nitrogen sources, phosphate, and cane molasses. Among conventional carbon sources, (2% w/v) sucrose was found to be the preferred carbohydrate source …

Impact of Storage Methods and Duration on Sugar and Starch Content and Ethanol Yield of Sweet Potatoes [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam]
Abstract: Previous studies have shown that ‘industrial’ sweet potatoes can be an excellent feedstock for ethanol production as compared to corn, sorghum and other potential feedstocks. However, starch content can be affected by cultivars as well as storage conditions. Ideally, it is practical that sweet potato storage roots be processed for ethanol production as close to harvest as possible, but this may not always be the case and some amount of …
