Inbreeding, immunity and male sexual signaling in the black field cricket Teleogryllus commodus
… between advertisement calling effort and lysozyme-like activity. Therefore a female preference for higher calling effort might select for males with higher lysozyme activity. Finally, the assays used to measure insect immunity presumably reflect disease resistance. If disease resistance …

Determining the Structure and Activity of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa Protein, Ivyp2
… to structurally characterize and assess the activity of an important resistance factor (Ivyp2) from the multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This opportunistic pathogen accounts for approximately 10% of all hospital-acquired infections in the United States and …

Protein extraction using reverse micelles
… in protein extraction. It was found that lysozyme could be extracted using an AOT RMS, but not with a CTAB RMS. For the first time, an aromatic solvent, p-xylene, was used for the extraction of lysozyme and it was found that the AOT in p-xylene RM system resulted in the higher lysozyme …

Immunostimulatory effects of different aspects of aquaculture on the host response in the edible sea urchin, paracentrotus lividus
… cell counts, nitric oxide production, and lysozyme activity. Therefore, trials commencing after Trial 5 in Chapter 4, were modified to include starvation in order to remove any effect of diet. Another important aspect of culturing any organism is the study of their immune function and its …

Characterization of protein microstructure by various chromatographic techniques
… The model protein chosen for our work is T4 lysozyme. The protein consists of 164 amino acids with molecular weight ~ 18 kD. SYBYL 7.1 software was used to generate in silico point mutants. Two categories of protein variants (point mutants) were generated using site-directed protein …

Isolation, Characterisation and Preservation of Bacteriophages for Use in Treatment of Aeromonas hydrophila Infection In Finfish
… of A. hydrophila and to determine lysozyme activity and IgG levels as indicators of immunological response to bacteria or the bacteriophage. Screening for potential A. hydrophila phages with lytic ability resulted in the selection of four phages, coded as Ah6_G, Ah9_PP, Ah10_Se and …
