Fecal Material of Captive Wild Animals as Source of CAZymes With Application Potential

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 8, April 2026.
With the goal to identify a novel resource of enzymes, we tested for the potential of fecal metagenomes of captive wild animals to provide CAZymes. Our data show that CAZymes profiles differed between animals with varying gut physiology and diet, and that metagenomes of captive wild animals can be considered source of diverse CAZymes including rare and

Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 20, 9 March 2026.
Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme trypsin from the genetically modified Fusarium venenatum strain NZYM‐FG

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) is produced with the genetically modified Fusarium venenatum strain NZYM‐FG by Novozymes A/S. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns. The food enzyme was considered free from viable cells of the production organism and its DNA. The food enzyme is intended to be used in the processing
