Enhancing the Industrial Potential of Filamentous Cyanobacteria
… were to improve the industrial potential of filamentous N2-fixing cyanobacteria by increasing its biofuel tolerance, and to evaluate the economic feasibility and environmental impacts of a theoretical, cyanobacteria-based biofuel production facility. To develop a method to quantify …

Detection of filamentous bacteria in activated sludge
Attempts were made to isolate the filamentous bacteria responsible for bulking at Goudkoppies activated sludge plant in Johannesburg, South Africa, in order to allow fluorescent antibody against these microorganisms to be produced and to facilitate and simplify their identification. Of the …

Raman and SERS studies of filamentous fungi
Fungal species perform many important roles in biotechnology and recycling and act as agents of disease and decay. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has attracted significant attention as an analytical method for chemical and biological identification. For SERS experiments, it is essential …

Approaches towards disease resistance to filamentous pathogens
In the co-evolutionary arms race between plants and pathogens, plants have developed a multifaceted armory consisting of diverse defence responses, such as the production of antimicrobial compounds and the activation of immunity via specific receptors. This work examines the use of the phytoalexin …

Operational parameters of the filamentous microbial process
… FAS process. Specifically: the settleability of filamentous sludge produced by the treatment system, the yield coefficient of the biological population, and the carbon to phosphorus ratio which limits organic removal efficiency. Findings of this study indicate that the sludges produced by the FAS …

Production of antimicrobials and antioxidants from filamentous fungi
Filamentous fungi have proven throughout history to be a vast source of potential therapeutic activities. They are recognised as nutritious, highly palatable functional foods and are now widely accepted as an untapped source of potentially powerful natural products of pharmacological significance. …

The development of filamentous fungi in submerged culture
… an important effect on the subsequent growth of filamentous fungi in submerged culture. This early phase of growth does not appear to have received much attention, and it was for this reason that the author's research was started. The aggregation, germination and early growth of the filamentous …

Screening rare filamentous actinobacteria for novel antimycobacterial compounds
… the phylum Actinobacteria. Due to this history, filamentous actinobacteria were selected for screening of novel antimycobacterial compounds. However, the focus in this investigation was on species from understudied genera, the so-called “rare actinobacteria” that have not been extensively …

A study of filamentous viruses in maize and smallgrains
The occurrence of maize dwarf mosaic virus (MDMV) in field grown maize was investigated. For this purpose, maize showing mosiac symptoms was collected from different maize growing areas in South Africa by Prof. M.B. von Wechmar. These samples from Transvaal, Orange Free State and Natal were then …

Filamentous algae as a nutrient scrubber for agricultural drainage treatment
Filamentous algae nutrient scrubbers (FANS) have potential as a novel on-farm treatment system to remove and recover diffuse nutrients from agricultural drainage water. FANS use attached filamentous algae that grow and assimilate nutrients from the water which are removed when algal biomass is …

Temporal biomass density and filamentous bacteria effects on secondary settling
… settling problems has focused on the role of filamentous bacteria, and also factors such as floc size and shape. The effects of variable biomass density on settleability of biosolids produced in full scale activated sludge wastewater treatment systems has been recently been demonstrated, and …

Blue light-dependent development of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans
Zahlreiche Studien belegen, dass in Pilzen Entwicklungsprozesse und die Produktion von Sekundärmetaboliten gekoppelt sind, die molekulare Mechanismen dieses Zusammenhangs sind jedoch bislang unbekannt. Dabei scheint Licht ein Umweltfaktor zu sein, der diese Prozesse bedingt. In dieser Arbeit wurde …

Screening of South African marine filamentous actinobacteria for antitubercular compounds
… are needed to treat TB more effectively. The filamentous actinobacteria are a viable source of potential novel antitubercular drugs especially with the advent of technological advancements providing the means to overcome the issues that hampered natural product drug discovery in the past. For …

A study on the modulation of alpha-actinin and filamentous actin
… tropomyosin dependent stabilization of filamentous actin, and maintains a dynamic basal actin array through promoting actin disassembly. Lastly I demonstrate that α-actinin-4 localization in cells can be modulated by phosphorylation of its actin-binding domain.
