Molecular identification and statistical optimization of endo-α-amylase production by Bacillus licheniformis KeR9 isolated from potato roots for maltooligosaccharide synthesis

A starch-degrading bacterial strain (KeR9) isolated from potato root tissues was identified through whole-genome sequencing using average nucleotide identity (ANI) and DNA-DNA hybridization (DDH) as Bacillus licheniformis . This strain with enzymatic production potential was then...

N-Acetylcysteine, Tiron, and Their Combination: In Vitro Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Activities and Their Protective Effect in a Rat Model of Acetic Acid-Induced Ulcerative Colitis

Ulcerative colitis is characterized by inflammation, oxidative stress, and excessive free radical production. This study investigated the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and protective effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC), Tiron, and their fixed-ratio combination in acetic acid-indu...
