Cell-in-Bead-in-Droplet Platform for pH-Based Microfluidic Screening of Ureolytic Bacteria. [PDF]

open access: yesSmall
Efficient high‐throughput microbial screening in droplet microfluidics is often challenged by chemical crosstalk between droplets. This is particularly difficult in pH‐changing biological processes, for which more effective biochemical assays are needed.

Polyphasic Characterization of Acetobacter indonesiensis UNPADCC 01-5 Isolated From a Traditional Fermented Food, Oncom Merah. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
The polyphasic approach (morphology, physiology, biochemistry and genetics) was used to characterize Acetobacter indonesiensis strain UNPADCC 01‐5, which was isolated from oncom merah. The strain's potential as a culture for acidic fermentations and a biofunctional agent was supported by its adaptive characteristics, which included acid tolerance ...

Bioprospecting Microbial Consortia for Tebuthiuron Degradation in Agricultural Soils: An Alternative Bayesian-Driven Colorimetric Protocol. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
Microbial consortia from sugarcane soils, particularly ratoon cane environments, showed tebuthiuron‐degrading potential. Bayesian factor estimation of kernel density curves based on logarithmic response ratios enabled interpretation of non‐sigmoidal spectrophotometric data, revealing native microbiota's bioremediation capacity and offering a novel ...

Ecology and bioprospecting [PDF]

open access: yesAustral Ecology, 2010
AbstractBioprospecting is the exploration of biodiversity for new resources of social and commercial value. It is carried out by a wide range of established industries such as pharmaceuticals, manufacturing and agriculture as well as a wide range of comparatively new ones such as aquaculture, bioremediation, biomining, biomimetic engineering and ...

<i>In Silico</i> Bioprospection of <i>Daniellia oliveri-</i>Based Products as Quorum Sensing Modulators of <i>Escherichia coli</i> SdiA. [PDF]

open access: yesBiochem Res Int
Escherichia coli is a common pathogen responsible for various gut‐related infections, and it utilizes the SdiA‐mediated quorum sensing (QS) system to regulate biofilm formation, other virulence factors, and pathogenicity. With rising antibiotic resistance, there is a pressing need to discover alternative QS inhibitors (QSIs) targeting SdiA.

Discovering PETases: An Interlink Between Engineering Enzymes and Microbiomes. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol
In this review‐type article, we discuss some recent trends in the identification of polyethylene terephthalate‐degrading enzymes (PETases) from nature. We highlight that the discovery of novel PETases can be improved by an interlink between reshaping microbiomes and engineering proteins.

Cephalotoxins: A Hotspot for Marine Bioprospecting?

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Molluscs provided one of the pioneering approved pharmaceuticals from the seas: the painkiller ziconotide, developed from an ω-conotoxin isolated from cone snails. As marine biotechnologists are turning towards the immense range of novel bioproducts from
