Multi-copy alpha-amylase genes are crucial for Ditylenchus destructor to parasitize the plant host.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Ditylenchus destructor is a migratory plant-parasitic nematode that causes huge damage to global root and tuber production annually. The main plant hosts of D. destructor contain plenty of starch, which makes the parasitic environment of D. destructor to

Electrically Readable Lateral Flow Assay Using Organic Transistors for Diagnostic Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electrolyte‐gated organic field‐effect transistors (EGOFETs) are integrated with lateral flow (LF) paper fluidics to create a reusable, portable, and low‐cost point‐of‐care (PoC) diagnostic test. The devices are validated for Human Immunoglobulin G detection, achieving high sensitivity (0.1 fm), selectivity, and reproducibility with rapid results in 20–

Radiasi Sinar Ultra Violet Strain Aspergillus Oryzae Untuk Meningkatkan Produksi Alfa Amilase [PDF]

, 1995
Mutation of Aspergillus oryzae was carried out by ultra violet irradiation at 254 nm. The mutans obtained with 0, 10, 20,30, 40 and 50 minutes irradiation were screened for their amylolytic activity and alpha amylase production.

Fermented Lacticaseibacillus Paracasei Cultures Ameliorate Colitis by Modulating Microbiota‐Derived Tryptophan Metabolism and Macrophage Polarization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A solid‐state fermented probiotic (PYW) is developed using wheat bran as substrate, containing high viable Lacticaseibacillus paracasei and bioactive metabolites. PYW alleviates intestinal inflammation by gut microbiota composition, enriching indole derivatives, activating aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling, and regulating macrophage polarization. PYW
