Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Tree bark remains an underexploited source of high‐value‐added phenolic compounds with potential circular bioeconomy applications. This work characterized bark extracts from two species of distinct Brazilian biomes, Stryphnodendron adstringens (Cerrado) and Myrcia eximia (Amazon), obtained with three solvents (ethanol, methanol and acetone ...

Carotenoids from Marine Organisms: Biological Functions and Industrial Applications
Antioxidants, 2017 As is the case for terrestrial organisms, carotenoids represent the most common group of pigments in marine environments. They are generally biosynthesized by all autotrophic marine organisms, such as bacteria and archaea, algae and fungi.

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.Carbon and oxygen fluxes during photoautotrophic, photoheterotrophic and mixotrophic growth of Scenedesmus obliquus. ABSTRACT Mixotrophic growth of microalgae involves the simultaneous assimilation of inorganic and organic carbon sources, but the quantitative contributions of photoautotrophic and photoheterotrophic metabolisms remain poorly resolved ...

Cancer Chemoprevention by Carotenoids
, 2012 Carotenoids are natural fat-soluble pigments that provide bright coloration to plants and animals. Dietary intake of carotenoids is inversely associated with the risk of a variety of cancers in different tissues.

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate prediction of bioprocess scale‐up is critical for accelerating the deployment of novel and sustainable biomanufacturing systems. However, this remains challenging as multi‐scale data is expensive to generate and mechanistic understanding is often incomplete, leading upscaling decisions to rely heavily on empirical expertise. This work

Exploring the Optical Properties of Carotenoid-Based Nanoparticles: The Role of Terminal Groups
MoleculesCarotenoids are increasingly used as naturally occurring food colorants. For application as beverage colorants, fat-soluble carotenoids are formulated into dispersion systems via nanoparticle (NP) formation. In recent years, the antioxidant properties of

Food‐solicitation displays in nestling birds: still begging for answers
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nestling begging is a key model for understanding animal communication and parent–offspring conflict. Dynamic begging displays are often interpreted as costly, honest signals of need, with honesty maintained by viability costs, as proposed in Godfray's influential signalling model.
