20 strains of endophytic fungi were isolated from roots and stems of Ephedra intermedia. After fermentation these strains, fermentation broth and mycelium were extracted by ethyl acetate, n-butanol and methyl alcohol, producing 60 extracts. Then the antibacterial activity of these extracts was researched, the result found that 33 extracted samples could evidently inhibit the growth of six different bacteria, accounted for 55%. The MIC of ethyl acetate extract of J109 was 0.15625mg/mL to five test bacterial expect Streptococcus uberi.
ABSTRACT:The graft copolymerization of the vinyl monomers that were prepared by reactions of methyl acrylate and 4-aminoazobenzene derivatives, such as 4-aminoazobenzene, 4-amino-4Ј-methyl azobenzene, 4-amino-4Ј-nitro azobenzene, and 4-amino-3Ј,5Ј-dinitro azobenzene, onto potato starch were carried out by the initiation of potassium persulfate. The evidence of grafted copolymers was investigated by using FTIR spectroscopy and acid hydrolysis technique. The relationship between grafting efficiency and monomer structure as well as polarity was studied. The experimental results showed that the graft copolymerization is independent of the polarity of the vinyl monomers and that the structures of monomers exhibit a marked influence on the graft copolymerization, namely, the larger the substitute is, the lower the grafting efficiency will be.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
