Complexity of cyanobacterial exopolysaccharides: composition, structures, inducing factors and putative genes involved in their biosynthesis and assembly

TL;DR: This review organizes available information on cyanobacterial EPS, including their composition, function and factors affecting their synthesis, and from the in silico analysis of available cyanob bacterial genome sequences, proposes a putative mechanism for their biosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma Treatment in Textile Industry

TL;DR: In this article, Fernando Oliveira (SFRH/BD/65254/2009) and Andrea Zille (C2011-UMINHO-2C2T-01) acknowledge funding from Programa Compromisso para a Cioncia 2008, Portugal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Degradation of azo dyes by Trametes villosa laccase over long periods of oxidative conditions

TL;DR: This study highlights the fact that laccases polymerize the reaction products obtained during long-term batch decolorization processes with azo dyes, which provide unacceptable color levels in effluents, limiting the application of laccase as bioremediation agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immobilized laccase for decolourization of reactive black 5 dyeing effluent

TL;DR: Dyeing in the enzymatically recycled effluent provided consistency of the colour with both bright and dark dyes and decolourization due to adsorption on the support and dye degradation due to the enzyme action.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation and characterization of polysaccharides/PVA blend nanofibrous membranes by electrospinning method

TL;DR: The electrospun blended PVA/EPS membrane showed better tensile mechanical properties when compared with PVA and P VA/CS, and resisted more against disintegration in the temperature range between 10 and 50 °C, and has shown an increase in chromium binding capacity of 5%.
