Journal ArticleDOI
Lipase-mediated conversion of vegetable oils into biodiesel using ethyl acetate as acyl acceptor.
TL;DR: The relative activity of lipase could be well maintained over twelve repeated cycles with ethyl acetate while it reached to zero by 6th cycle when ethanol was used as an acyl acceptor and reusability of the lipase over repeated cycles in interesterification and ethanolysis was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
PE11, a PE/PPE family protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is involved in cell wall remodeling and virulence.
Parul Singh,Parul Singh,Rameshwaram Nagender Rao,J. R. C. Reddy,Rachapudi B. N. Prasad,Sandeep Kumar Kotturu,Sudip Ghosh,Sangita Mukhopadhyay +7 more
TL;DR: M. smegmatis expressing PE11 (Msmeg-PE11) exhibited altered colony morphology and cell wall lipid composition leading to a marked increase in resistance against various environmental stressors and antibiotics, indicating a potential role of this protein in mycobacterial virulence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipase-mediated Transformation of Vegetable Oils into Biodiesel using Propan-2-ol as Acyl Acceptor
TL;DR: Reusability of the lipase was maintained over 12 repeated cycles with propan-2-ol while it reached to zero by 7th cycle when methanol was used as an acyl acceptor, under standard reaction conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and Evaluation of Biodiesel from Sterculia foetida Seed Oil
Ch. Bindhu,J. R. C. Reddy,Bhamidipati V. S. K. Rao,Thumu Ravinder,Pradosh Prasad Chakrabarti,Mallampalli Sri Lakshmi Karuna,Rachapudi B. N. Prasad +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the preparation of biodiesel from S. foetida oil using sodium hydroxide as catalyst was reported and the resultant biodiesel was evaluated for physico-chemical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipase-Catalyzed Preparation of Palmitic and Stearic Acid-rich Phosphatidylcholine
J. R. C. Reddy,T. Vijeeta,Mallampalli Sri Lakshmi Karuna,Bhamidipati V. S. K. Rao,Rachapudi B. N. Prasad +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a phosphatidylcholine (PC) rich in palmitic and stearic acids was prepared using lipase-catalyzed transesterification from PC isolated from egg and soybean lecithins.
