The Impact of Essential Oils From Aromatic Plants on Microbial Dynamics and Nutrition in Lacto‐Fermented Systems

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Bioactive compounds found in essential oils (EOs), which are obtained by distilling certain plants, have been shown to inhibit pathogenic microorganisms and also support the growth of probiotic bacteria. In this context, EO nutraceuticals have properties that can improve the shelf life and sensory properties of products.

Development of Optimized Bioactive Nanocomposite Films Using a Central Composite Design for Control of Microbial Contamination in Stored Rice

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) and polylactic acid (PLA)‐based nanocomposite films were developed as active packaging materials for stored rice. The composition and synergistic effect of the active formulations (AF‐1 and AF‐2), cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), and glycerol (Gly) as independent variables were tested to reach the ...

Biotreatment of cr(VI)-containing wastewater mediated by indigenous bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Indigenous Pseudomonas veronii 2E, Klebsiella oxytoca P2 and Klebsiella ornithinolityca 1P were tested as catalysts for the transformation of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) for Cr(VI)-containing wastewater biotreatments.

Functional Characterisation of Microbial Communities Related to Black Stain Formation in Lascaux Cave

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Excessive anthropization can lead to black stain alterations on cave walls. The present work reports the first metagenomic analysis of black stains threatening artwork in Lascaux Cave. Findings show new microbial taxa and genetic potential associated with black stains.

Bacterial and Fungal Diversity Inside the Medieval Building Constructed with Sandstone Plates and Lime Mortar as an Example of the Microbial Colonization of a Nutrient-Limited Extreme Environment (Wawel Royal Castle, Krakow, Poland)

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Biodeterioration is a serious threat to cultural heritage objects and buildings. The deterioration of a given material often incurs irreparable losses in terms of uniqueness and historical value. Hence preventive actions should be taken.

Investigating the Atmospheric Microbial Ecosystem Through Theory, Bioenergetics, and Numerical Modeling: A Breath of Fresh Air for Aeromicrobiology

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The atmosphere may constitute the Earth's largest microbial ecosystem, yet it remains the least understood. While microorganisms can persist and may even thrive in the polyextremes of the Earth's atmosphere, it is still unknown whether the atmosphere sustains an active microbial community.
