Salicylic acid (SA), sodium benzoate (SB), phenoxyethanol (PO), and benzyl alcohol (BA) are “non paraben” preservatives commonly used in cosmetic products like shampoos, and often in combination of at least two compounds to assure their antimicrobial effectiveness at low concentrations. In this study, an HPLC-DAD method was developed and validated for simultaneous determination of SA, SB, PO, and BA in commercial shampoos.

The current review paper thus intends to analyze the effectiveness of self-improvement programs that focus on reducing alcoholism in the society. The best initiative that can be taken against this war with substance use would be to motivate and encourage people to stop abusing and exploiting the consumption of alcohol, and that would be possible only if people are aware of the side effects of this beverage.

Phenylacetaldehyde reductase (PAR) produced by styreneassimilating Corynebacterium strain ST-10 was used to synthesize chiral alcohols. This enzyme with a broad substrate range reduced various prochiral aromatic ketones and b-ketoesters to yield optically active secondary alcohols with an enantiomeric purity of more than 98% enantiomeric excess (e.e.). The Escherichia coli recombinant cells which expressed the par gene could efficiently produce important pharmaceutical intermediates;

Apple flavor is characterized by combinations of ester compounds, which increase markedly during fruit ripening. The final step in ester biosynthesis is catalyzed by alcohol acyl transferases (AATs) that use coenzyme A (CoA) donors together with alcohol acceptors as substrates. The gene MpAAT1, which produces a predicted protein containing features of other plant acyl transferases, was isolated fromMalus pumila(cv. Royal Gala). TheMpAAT1gene is expressed in leaves, flowers and fruit of apple.

Mitochondrial biogenesis is a complex and highly regulated process that requires the controlled expression of hundreds of genes encoded in two separated genomes, namely the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. To identify regulatory proteins involved in the transcriptional control of key nuc-lear-encoded mitochondrial genes, we have performed a detailed analysis of the promoter region of theasubunit of the Drosophila melanogasterF1F0 ATP synthase complex.

Vanillyl-alcohol oxidase (VAO; EC 1.1.3.38) contains a covalently 8a-histidyl bound FAD, which represents the most frequently encountered covalent flavin–protein linkage. To elucidate the mechanism by which VAO covalently incorporates the FAD cofactor, apo VAO was produced by using a riboflavin auxotrophicEscherichia colistrain.

Disulfiram has been used for decades to treat alcoholism. Its therapeutic effect is thought to be mediated by the irreversible inhibition of aldehyde dehydrogenase. Recent reports have indicated new therapeutic uses of disulfiram, in particular in human cancers. Although the biochemical mech-anisms that underlie these effects remain largely unknown, certain enzymes involved in cancer processes have been reported to be targeted by disulfi-ram.
