Cross Kingdom Metabolic Engineering Paradigm Elevating Sustainable Protein Production

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Confronting the dual crisis of escalating global protein demand and unsustainable agriculture necessitates transformative solutions. Here, we pioneer evolutionary insights from maize nitrogen optimization via asparagine synthetase (ASNS) to rewire metabolism in Pichia pastoris.

Uniformity of cement-improved expansive soil in mixing technology

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2017
The inorganic materials adopted in the improvement of expansive soil engineering include lime and cement. During the construction process, the improving effect is greated influenced by the mixing uniformity of the soil conditioner and the soil. The above

Multi‐Enzyme Mimetic Molybdenum Nitride Nanozymes Reshape Subgingival Microenvironment for Synergistic Periodontitis Therapy via ROS Regulation and Microbiome Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease initiated and sustained by plaque microorganisms and host immune response, remains an intractable oral disease and a leading cause of tooth loss worldwide. Traditional mechanical debridement and adjunctive antibiotic or antiseptic therapy often shows limited efficacy due to the complex anatomical ...

Combined Effects of Bottom Ash and Lime on Behaviour of Expansive Soil

, 2019
This study illustrates the effectiveness of combining bottom ash and hydrated lime to enhance the engineering properties of expansive soil. The bottom ash was collected from Eraring Power Station in New South Wales, Australia, as a by-product of coal ...

Nanocellulose Alleviates Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy via Gut Microbiota‐Mediated Bile Acid Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanocellulose, derived from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) through sulfuric acid hydrolysis or mechanical grinding to produce CNC or CNF, was tested in a rat ICP model. Particularly, CNF improved gut microbiota composition, reduced secondary bile acid metabolism, and restored bile acid homeostasis through modulation of the gut–liver axis.

Development of cracks in expansive soil improved by xanthan gum biopolymer

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The use of xanthan gum biopolymer, which can suppress the expansion of cracks of in expansive soil without affecting the growth of slope vegetation, is a new approach for ecological protection of expansive soil slopes.

Diversity of Pharmaceuticals Enhances Antibiotic Resistance in the Invertebrate Gut via Biofilm‐Mediated Mechanisms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pharmaceutical diversity acts as an independent driver of antibiotic resistance in soil invertebrates. While bulk soil remains unaffected, the collembolan gut microbiome exhibits significant resistance gene enrichment under complex chemical exposure and diurnal warming.
