“…Since B. mojavensis KJS-3 proved higher levels of activity (30 nM) of acid phosphatase that combined the cell wall and membrane against no activity in case of B. polyfermenticus KJS-2, B. mojavensis KJS-3 was more useful in metabolizing phosphates in acidic environments than B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 (Arora et al, 1990). Additionally, two strains proved digestive enzyme activity, but B. mojavensis KJS-3 has relatively low esterase activity (C4) related to lipid contents, and the other, activities of leucine arylamidase related to protein content and B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 proved β-galactosidase activity related to carbohydrate content (Moraiti-Ioannidou et al, 2009). B. mojavensis KJS-3 enables the prompt extraction of the more digestible components from a great number of food components because of the higher digestive enzyme contents of the bacterium (Le Vay et al, 2001).…”

One of the strains of the Bacillus mojavensis group, Bacillus mojavensis KJS-3 (B. mojavensis KJS-3), which has been demonstrated to play a role in protecting plants against diseases as a bacterial endophyte and in reducing the accumulation of mycotoxins generated by an endophytic fungus, was recently discovered in food waste. In this study, the identification and characterization of B. mojavensis KJS-3 was performed via TEM analysis, API-zym test, API 50 CHB test, assays of catalase and oxidase activity, lactic acid production, stability under various conditions, antibiotic susceptibility, and cellular fatty acid composition. The overall results of this study demonstrate that B. mojavensis KJS-3 may have great potential as a probiotic product, as this bacterium is quite stable in somewhat harsh environments. B. mojavensis KJS-3 was positive on oxidase and catalase tests, and the conversion rate of glucose to lactic acid was 58.9%. Finally, anteiso-C(15:0) (43.10%) was identified as the major fatty acid.

“…Comparable to A. franciscana, the Egyptian strain under the present study showed no significant differences between them (53.5%); its protein content has been previously studied by many authors and was found to meet the essential requirement of many fish species (Claus, Benijts, Vandeputte, & Gardner, 1979). Other studies with other strains recorded protein content of 61, 56.2, and 54.03% in nauplii from Great Salt Lake strain (García-Ortega et al, 1998;Moraiti-Ioannidou, Castritsi-Catharios, Miliou, & Sorgeloos, 2009).…”

Background: Comparative analysis of essential amino acids and fatty acid of enriched and unenriched Artemia spp. collected from Wadi El Natrun, Elbeheira, Egypt, was investigated. Results: The obtained results indicated that Leucine recorded the highest concentration (17.22%, 11.4%) in unenrichment A. tunisiana and A. franciscana, respectively followed by arginine (10.31%, 9.6%); however, glutamic acid recorded the lowest concentration (0.05%) in A. tunisiana. Statistical analysis showed no significant differences in some amino acid concentrations (P < 0.001) in both A. tunisiana and A. franciscana as arginine, valine, proline, and aspartic acid. Other amino acids were highly significantly fluctuated as glycine, leucine, histidine, phenylalanine, glutamic, and tyrosine; they were high in A. franciscana. Aspartic acid was significantly higher in unenrichment nauplii. Regarding the comparison between A. franciscana and enrichment A. tunisiana, the data showed non-significant improvement for the majority of the recorded amino acids. The analysis of unsaturated fatty acids n-3 and n-6 families after 18 and 24 h of enrichment Artemia was achieved. The composition of unsaturated fatty acids was significantly increased after enrichment to 79.7 mg/g DW instead of 46.5 in newly hatched nauplii. Saturated fatty acids were also significantly increased from 20 to 25.28 mg/g DW. The enrichment process was significant (P < 0.001) in nauplii enriched with fatty acids for 18 h. The more pronounced effect of duration was the amount of energy as it was 33.17 kJ/g after 18 h, while it was 45.693 kJ/g after 24 h incubation. The ratio of ascorbic acid, due to Artemia enrichment by vitamin C for 24 h, was increased from 853 to 3227 μg/g dry weight after enrichment. Conclusion: To conclude, enrichment with cod liver oil and vitamin C obviously affected the chemical composition of local Egyptian Artemia (A. tunisiana).
