The Utilization of Fungi and Their Products to Increase Livestock Production [PDF]

, 2011
Fungi as part of eukaryotic organisms play an important role for livestock. Some fungi are detrimental because they cause animal diseases, and some fungi are beneficial because they can improve animal productivity.

Chitin‐Derived Carbon‐Metal Functional Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Functional carbon materials are synthesized from combination of biopolymer (chitin) and iron precursors. The resultant material exhibits superior surface area and adsorptive properties compared to carbon materials synthesized directly from pure chitin.

MYCOCIDAL ACTIVITY OF CRUDE EXTRACTS OF MARINE-DERIVED BENEFICIAL FUNGI AGAINST PLANT PATHOGENIC FUNGI

Journal of Biopesticides, 2015
The ethyl acetate (EtOAc) crude extracts of five marine-derived fungi, namely Emericella nidulans (KUFA 0104), Hamigera avellanea (KUFA 0106), Neosartorya fischeri (KUFA 0107), N. pseudofischeri (KUFA 0108) and Talaromyces trachyspermus (KUFA 0021), were evaluated for their in vitro antifungal activity against ten economically important plant ...

An efficient method for DNA extraction from Cladosporioid fungi [PDF]

, 2010
We developed an efficient method for DNA extraction from Cladosporioid fungi, which are important fungal plant pathogens. The cell wall of Cladosporioid fungi is often melanized, which makes it difficult to extract DNA from their cells.

A Thermoreversible Gelation Pathway to Plant Cuticle‐Inspired Biopolymer Aerogel Monoliths Based on Network‐Spherulitic Crystal Assemblies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
To address functionality limitations in plant‐based and industrially compostable polymer aerogels, this work introduces bio‐inspired aerogels with broadened functionality. Inspired by functional plant tissues, lightweight biopolymer aerogels based on exclusively stereocomplex crystals are fabricated, featuring hierarchically macro‐/meso‐porous ...

The emerging pathogen Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei drives a degenerative cyclic pattern in the hepatopancreas microbiome of the shrimp (Penaeus vannamei)

Scientific Reports, 2022
The microsporidian Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) is an emerging pathogen that causes substantial economic losses in shrimp (Penaeus spp.) aquaculture worldwide. To prevent diseases in shrimp, the manipulation of the gut microbiota has been suggested.

The duality of filamentous fungi: Beneficial uses and risks in the food industry

Food Research International
Filamentous fungi are ubiquitous microorganisms, comprising approximately 150,000 documented species, although global estimates suggest a total diversity of 11 million species. The role of filamentous fungi in the food supply chain is complex, balancing production benefits with risks of contamination and health concerns.

Chitin‐Chitosan Cryogels for the Reversible Sequestration and Recovery of Heavy Metals From Wastewater

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Chitin‐chitosan cryogels with degrees of N‐acetylation from 12.2% to 71.4% are fabricated by dissolution, coagulation and lyophilization for the sequestration of heavy metals from water. Colorimetry and differential pulse voltammetry showed controlled adsorption and desorption capacities for As5+, Co2+ and Cu2+, making this material attractive for ...
