Biochemical and ecological control of geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol in source waters. [PDF]
Appl Environ Microbiol, 2007 The majority of all biologically caused taste-and-odor outbreaks in drinking water characterized worldwide are caused by microbial production of (−)-geosmin [(−)-(4 S ,4a S ,8a R )-4,8a-dimethyloctahydronaphthalen-4a-ol] and (−)-2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) {(1 R -exo)-1,2,7,7 ...

Sensory Preference of Drinking Water Influenced by Subthreshold‐Level Mineral Salt Mixtures
Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.A distinct preference plateau was identified, with liking maximized near the salts' absolute thresholds. Sweetness promotion and astringency suppression were the primary sensory mechanisms driving preference in these mineral salt mixtures. A predictive model pinpointed the optimal blend (0.92 mg/L KCl; 0.60 mg/L MgSO4), providing a practical, data ...

Oxidation of nitrobenzene by ozone in the presence of faujasite zeolite in a continuous flow gas–liquid–solid reactor [PDF]
, 2010 This work investigates the oxidation of nitrobenzene (NB) by ozone in the presence of faujasite zeolite. Experiments were carried out in a gas–liquid–solid reactor were ozone transfer and NB oxidation took place at the same time.

Biodegradation of 2-Methylisoborneol-Related Substances by Enterobacter cloaceae.
Japanese Journal of Water Treatment Biology, 2001 Biodegradation of 2-methylenebornane (2-MB) by Enterobacter cloaceae, which is one of the dehydration products of 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) led to 2-MIB, 2-methylcamphene (2-MC) and an unidentifiable oxidation product, in addition to the previously reported camphor and lactonic compound. On the other hand, 2-MC, which is another dehydration product of

Harmful and Harmless Soil-Dwelling Fungi Indicate Microhabitat Suitability for Off-Host Ixodid Ticks
MicroorganismsFollowing blood meals or questing bouts, hard ticks (Ixodidae) must locate moist off-host microhabitats as refuge. Soil-dwelling fungi, including entomopathogenic Beauveria bassiana (Bb), thrive in moist microhabitats.

Widely Targeted Metabolomics of Morchella Sextelata After Hot‐Air Drying
Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.Through the elucidation of the metabolite changes that occur in M. sextelata after hot‐air drying, this study provides theoretical support for the higher commercial value of the pileus after drying and can be applied to improve the quality of dried morels. ABSTRACT Morchella sextelata is a valuable and popular commercial edible fungus in China. Hot‐air
