Microbial bioprocessing of lignocellulose to bioethanol still poses challenges in terms of substrate catabolism. A targeted evolution-based study was undertaken to determine if inter-strain microbial variability could be exploited for bioprocessing of lignocellulose to bioethanol. The microorganism studied was Fusarium oxysporum because of its capacity to both saccharify and ferment lignocellulose...... hiện toàn bộ

Enzymatic detection of citrulline, a potential biomarker for various diseases, is beneficial. However, determining citrulline levels requires expensive instrumental analyses and complicated colorimetric assays. Although l-amino acid oxidase/dehydrogenase is widely used to detect l-amino acids, an l-citrulline-specific oxidase/dehydrogenase has not been reported. Therefore, in this study, we aimed ...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of the initial pH on the anaerobic digestion process of dairy cattle manureAMB Express - Tập 12 - Trang 1-10 - 2022

Anaerobic digestion (AD) has recently been studied to obtain products of greater interest than biogas, such as volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and phytoregulators. The effect of the initial pH of cow manure and the fermentation time of the AD on the microbial composition, VFAs, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and gibberellic acid (GA3) production was evaluated. The cow manure (7% solids) was adjusted to in...... hiện toàn bộ
The relationship between the violet pigment PP-V production and intracellular ammonium level in Penicillium purpurogenumAMB Express - Tập 6 - Trang 1-7 - 2016

Penicillium purpurogenum is the fungus that produces an azaphilone pigment. However, details about the pigment biosynthesis pathway are unknown. The violet pigment PP-V is the one of the main pigments biosynthesized by this fungus. This pigment contains an amino group in a pyran ring as its core structure. We focused on this pigment and examined the relationship between in...... hiện toàn bộ
Insights into the antimicrobial effects of ceritinib against Staphylococcus aureus in vitro and in vivo by cell membrane disruptionAMB Express - Tập 12 - Trang 1-15 - 2022

According to a 2019 report from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was listed as one of the “serious threats” that had become a global public challenge in hospitals and community. Biofilm-associated infections and refractory persisters of S. aureus also impede the effectiveness of conventional antibiotics that have greatly increa...... hiện toàn bộ
