Ultrasound assisted interesterification for enhancing productivity of oxidative sensitive docosahexanoic acid ‐enriched medium‐and‐long chain triacylglycerol synthesis

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
Abstract The synthesis of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)‐enriched medium‐ and long‐chain triacylglycerols (MLCT), particularly with DHA at the sn‐2 position and medium chain fatty acids (MCFA) at the sn‐1,3 positions, is a promising strategy to enhance DHA bioavailability.

A Novel Zn2-Cys6 Transcription Factor AtrR Plays a Key Role in an Azole Resistance Mechanism of Aspergillus fumigatus by Co-regulating cyp51A and cdr1B Expressions

PLoS Pathogens, 2017
Successful treatment of aspergillosis caused by Aspergillus fumigatus is threatened by an increasing incidence of drug resistance. This situation is further complicated by the finding that strains resistant to azoles, the major antifungal drugs for ...

A Simple CRISPR/Cas9 System for Efficiently Targeting Genes of Aspergillus Section Flavi Species, Aspergillus nidulans, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus terreus, and Aspergillus niger

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing systems have been developed for many aspergilli. Reported gene-targeting efficiencies vary greatly and are dependent on delivery methods, repair mechanisms of induced double-stranded breaks, selection markers, and genetic backgrounds of transformation recipient strains.

Development of a consolidated bioprocess for the production of citric acid using Aspergillus niger as biocatalyst

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The industrial production of citric acid, an ingredient in beverages, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, is based on microbial fermentation of glucose or sucrose. Given the elevated cost of these sugars, lignocellulosic biomass is emerging as a cost‐effective and environmentally friendly feedstock for sustainable bioprocesses.

SAPSAM - Sparsely Annotated Pathological Sign Activation Maps - A novel approach to train Convolutional Neural Networks on lung CT scans using binary labels only [PDF]

https://biomedicalimaging.org/2019/, 2019
Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis (CPA) is a complex lung disease caused by infection with Aspergillus. Computed tomography (CT) images are frequently requested in patients with suspected and established disease, but the radiological signs on CT are difficult to quantify making accurate follow-up challenging.

Human Neutrophils Use Different Mechanisms To Kill Aspergillus fumigatus Conidia and Hyphae: Evidence from Phagocyte Defects

Journal of Immunology, 2016
Neutrophils are known to play a pivotal role in the host defense against Aspergillus infections. This is illustrated by the prevalence of Aspergillus infections in patients with neutropenia or phagocyte functional defects, such as chronic granulomatous ...

Use of Whole Cells and Cell‐Free Extracts of Catalase‐Deficient E. coli for Peroxygenase‐Catalyzed Reactions

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs) and cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs) with peroxygenase activity are becoming the preferred biocatalysts for oxyfunctionalization reactions. While whole cells (WCs) or cell‐free extracts (CFEs) of Escherichia coli are often preferred for cofactor‐dependent monooxygenase reactions, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2 ...

Identification of Culturable Bioaerosols Collected over Dryland in Northwest China: Observation using a Tethered Balloon

Asian Journal of Atmospheric Environment, 2011
The transfer of microorganisms is important process for ecosystems. Microorganisms in dryland can transport itself to wetland through atmospheric diffusion, but only few papers reported about the atmospheric bioaerosol present over dryland.
