For food industry production processes and other uses, a mold that produces high levels of feruloyl esterase was obtained from laboratory mold collections and other sources. It was Aspergillus awanmori G-2 that produces high levels of feruloyl esterase. The feruloyl esterase was purified using ion-exchange chromatography, size-exclusion chromatography, and HPLC chromatography. The enzyme was identified as a monomer protein using size-exclusion chromatography. Its optimum temperature and pH were, respectively, 40 degrees C and pH 5. Its activity was stable at pH 3 to 5. The enzyme was combined with xylan and starch, but it was absorbed by cellulose. The km of the feruloyl esterase was 0.0019% (0.01 mM). The enzyme showed stable activity at pH 3 and 50 degrees C, making this enzyme useful for food production.
Livestock is an integral part of agriculture countries where ticks play significant role as potent pests causing considerable losses to economy and health. Drug resistance has made these pests supersede conventional therapies and control programs Nanotechnology here comes as an advancing and significant candidate alternatively able to reverse drug resistance. Nanoparticles, hence, against ticks may better be considered as nanopesticides that act in ways other than conventional drug efficacies. The methods of nanoparticles production include green synthesis, chemical synthesis, and arthropod-based synthesis. Pros and cons of these nanopesticides are by no means neglectable. Studies are fewer than needed to comprehensively discuss nanopesticides. Current review thus systematically covers aspects of ticks as livestock pests, their drug resistance, advent of nanotechnology against pests, their production methodologies, mechanisms of actions of ticks, and current limitations. This review opens several avenues for further research on nanoparticles as nanopesticides against ticks.
The improvement of animal health can be achieved through variations in
local and regional conditions (e.g., altitude). In addition to biotic stress, abiotic stresses
include changes in the temperature, illnesses, pests, and enhancing biotic stress.
Effective farm animals must maintain fitness as one of their main responsibilities. As
the demand for animal protein, resistance to the previous drug, and the drive to reduce
antibiotic use in agriculture grow, this task will only become more difficult. The
susceptibility to all disorders may differ genetically, but the variation has not yet been
fully utilized. It is difficult and costly to measure this alteration in part because it is
difficult and expensive. Therefore, genomics can contribute to the refinement of animal
fitness. In this chapter, we will examine the concept of resistance, variation in
susceptibility, and elasticity, as well as provide examples, present a few of the most
recent developments in livestock and pigs, and briefly discuss the application of gene
enhancement to addressing disorder resistance. Ensure clients can select from
conventional meals, healthy choices (lean meats), dietary improvements, and food
raised using preferred farming practices (natural, without antibiotics).
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.
