Co-Production of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and Gluconic Acid from Glucose by Halomonas elongata [PDF]
Bioengineering, 2023 Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are biopolyesters regarded as an attractive alternative to petroleum-derived plastics. Nitrogen limitation and phosphate limitation in glucose cultivations were evaluated for poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (P(3HB)) production by ...

Gluconic acid improves performance of newly weaned piglets associated with alterations in gut microbiome and fermentation [PDF]
Porcine Health Management, 2023 Background Weaning is a critical phase in the pigs’ life and gut health might be compromised. Gluconic acid was shown to be poorly absorbed but readily fermented to butyrate in the gut which in turn can improve gut function. Hence, a total of 144 weaning

Secretion of Gluconic Acid From Nguyenibacter sp. L1 Is Responsible for Solubilization of Aluminum Phosphate [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Phosphorus (P) deficiency is one of the major factors limiting plant growth in acid soils, where most P is fixed by toxic aluminum (Al). Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSBs) are important for the solubilization of fixed P in soils.
