  • development of a novel quantitative pcr assay as a measurement for the presence of geosmin producing fungi
    Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2015
    Co-Authors: Nafees Bacha, Florence Mathieu, Ahmed Lebrihi, Zerif Echarki
    Abstract:

    Geosmin‐associated gpe1 gene of Penicillium expansum displayed ≥99% similarity to cytochrome P450 gene of geosmin‐producing P. restrictum, but ≤40% similarities to geosmin biosynthesis, non‐cytochromic gene of Streptomyces avermitilis and cytochrome P450 genes of non‐geosmin‐producing Neotyphodium lolii, Phoma betae and P. paxilli. Serial 10‐fold dilutions of P. expansum's DNA was subjected to a previously reported qPCR assay (Atoui et al. 2007), utilizing gpe1 specific primer pair ‘SNgpe1F/SNgpe1R’. A linear relationship between DNA quantity and Cycle Threshold (Ct), with strong correlative coefficient, was observed. Using the available physico‐chemical Method, geosmin was quantified in 188 grape samples. Penicillium spp's DNA was quantified in these samples, utilizing the developed qPCR assay. A strong positive correlation (R2 = 0·97) between Penicillium's DNA and geosmin concentration was observed. Furthermore, <50 ng μl−1 Penicillium's DNA corresponds to geosmin level below the permitted intensity limit i.e. 4, for ‘Flavour Profile Analysis’.

  • physico chemical Method for ammonia removal from synthetic wastewater using limestone and gac in batch and column studies
    Bioresource Technology, 2007
    Co-Authors: Sabir Hussain, Hamidi Abdul Aziz, Mohamed Hasnain Isa, Mohd Nordin Adlan, Faridah A H Asaari
    Abstract:

    The purpose of the present study was to examine the removal of ammoniacal nitrogen (NH4-N) from synthetic wastewater using limestone (LS) and granular activated carbon (GAC) mixture as low cost adsorbent. In batch study, optimum shaking and settling times were 150 and 120 min, respectively. The LS–GAC mixture ratio of 25:15 removed about 58% NH4-N. The smaller particle size of medium yielded higher adsorption capacity. The equilibrium adsorption data followed the Freundlich isotherm (R 2 > 0.98) but it showed weak bond. Adsorption kinetics were well described by the pseudo second-order rate model (R 2 > 0.93). The upflow column showed that higher flow rate and initial concentration resulted in shorter column saturation time. The study showed that the usage of GAC could be reduced by combining GAC with LS for the removal of NH4-N from wastewater; thus reducing the cost of treatment. � 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
