Optimization of Process Parameters for Improved Lipase Production by Hyperthermophilic Bacillus sonorensis 4R | Chapter 05 | Advances and Trends in Biotechnology and Genetics Vol. 2

Thermostable lipases isolated from thermophilic bacteria are emerged as industrially and biotechnologically important bio-molecules in recent era of globalization due to their potential to work at high temperatures. Knowledge of growth conditions and nutritional parameters controlling lipase production is necessary to improve its yield and successful development of an industrial bioprocess without increasing the cost of production. We are reporting the individual and interactive effects of process parameters on lipase production by a hyperthermo-alkalophilic strain of Bacillus sonorensis 4R. In the present study, the individual and combined effects of process parameters on lipase production by a hyperthermo-alkalophilic strain of B. sonorensis 4R are studied. Parameters used in this study were incubation period, temperature, initial pH of medium, carbon and nitrogen sources, substrates and metal salts. The isolate showed maximum lipase production after 4 days of incubation at 80°C and pH 8.0 and when growth medium was supplemented with 1% glucose, 1% ammonium sulphate, 100mmol CaSO4 and by using 1% Tween-80 as lipidic substrate. The combined effects of six variables (pH, temperature, substrate concentration, carbon source, nitrogen source and metal salt) studied in 12 experimental sets showed highest lipase production (51.33 U/mL) by B. sonorensis 4R. In a medium design composed with Tween-80 (1%), CaSO4 (100 mmol), glucose (0.5%), ammonium sulphate (1%), pH (7.5) and when incubated at 80°C, 6.88 fold enhancement over control was observed in lipase production. In the present study, lipase production from B. sonorensis 4R has been optimized using individual and combined effects of simple and easily manageable process parameters. This knowledge will be helpful to many industrial processes to obtain improved enzyme productivity.

A Prospective Study about Safety and Efficacy of Perioperative Lidocaine Infusion | Chapter 09 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Opioids cause clinically significant side effects such as respiratory depression, immunosuppression, muscle rigidity, negative inotropism, nausea, vomiting, hyperalgesia, urine retention, postoperative ileus, and drowsiness. Perioperative opioids are a major contributor to the United States' and other countries' opioid epidemics. Non-opioid analgesics, particularly lidocaine, are becoming more common for perioperative use as a result of this. A total of 185 adult patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups: control group I (105 patients) [fentanyl group] or group ii (80 patients) [opioid-free anaesthesia group]. Lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg bolus followed by 1.5 mg/kg/h infusion intraoperatively, and 1.5-2 mg/kg/h infusion for 2-8 hours postoperatively were given to patients in both groups at anaesthetic induction. Intraoperatively, both groups received analgesic adjuvants such as diclofenac 75 mg, paracetamol 1 gm, and mgso4 30-50 mg/kg. If the mean arterial pressure (map)

A Brief Study of Middleware Technologies: Programming Applications and Management Systems | Chapter 15 | Novel Research Aspects in Mathematical and Computer Science Vol. 1

  Many platforms, services, applications, hardware, and operating systems are connected through the middleware layer. Because the middleware layer abstracts much low-level complexity and makes applications and software systems portable, it allows disparate systems to interface and function together in harmony. Middleware technologies enable software engineers to swiftly construct software systems and applications, allowing developers to focus on more important tasks. This chapter examines several types of middleware systems and discusses middleware capabilities, middleware operation, middleware's function in cloud-based systems, and the best middleware platforms to use. Middleware systems are widely utilised and can be found in practically any software system or application. Middleware programmes provide as a link between many sorts of systems and protocols. They serve as a mechanism for various systems. To successfully exchange information, it runs on a variety of operating system

Patients’ Perspective of Acute Post-operative Pain Management: A Multicentre Survey of Tertiary Hospitals in Maharashtra, India | Chapter 08 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 When postoperative pain is adequately controlled, patients' satisfaction and patient-related outcomes (PROs) increase. Understanding the patients' perspective is crucial since it supports in the formulation of improvement strategies. Because wrong attitudes and assumptions might block pain alleviation, patients' attitudes and beliefs are critical. As a result, a multicenter study of patients' attitudes, beliefs, experiences, and satisfaction levels with acute postoperative pain management was done in Maharashtra's tertiary hospitals. In addition, the responses were examined to evaluate if the Acute Pain Service (APS) resulted in improved patient outcomes and satisfaction. A 13-item questionnaire adapted from previous studies was used to capture patients' experiences with postoperative pain treatment. The responses of 179 patients are included in the study. The findings revealed that 91.6 percent of patients experienced postoperative pain, with 75.5 percent
