Milk from goats that were genetically modified to produce higher levels of a human antimicrobial protein has proved effective in treating diarrhea in young pigs, demonstrating the potential for food ...

For any DLS system, its performance is based on the sample, for instance, the upper size limit may be > 5 μm for an emulsion, but < 1 μm for a high density particle since the analysis loses accuracy ...

We have used native state exchange to examine the energy landscape of the well-characterized protein T4 lysozyme. Although the protein exhibits two-state behavior by traditional probes, the energy ...

Lysozyme is abundant in secretions such as saliva, human milk, tears and mucus, and is also known as N-acetylmuramide glycanhydrolase or muramidase. It is an antimicrobial enzyme that is generated by ...

Sir Alexander Fleming made two discoveries - the antibiotic penicillin, and the enzyme lysozyme - that have had a lasting impact on medical science. Now, one hundred years later, scientists have built ...

LYSOZYME, a bacteriolytic enzyme discovered in 1922 by Sir Alexander Fleming, 2 is found in a number of biologic fluids. The enzyme is a basic protein of low molecular weight that lyses susceptible ...

A bacteria-digesting enzyme first discovered in human tears about a century ago may also have a not-so-helpful function: spurring chronic pain caused by nerve injury (Sci. Transl. Med. 2019, DOI: ...

An instrument which combines Raman spectroscopy with dynamic light scattering (DLS) can be used to study lysozyme’s unfolding and refolding processes under thermal stress conditions. Through the ...

Milk from goats that were genetically modified to produce higher levels of lysozyme, a human antimicrobial protein, has proved effective in treating diarrhea in young pigs and may one day be used to ...
