Denitrification performance, kinetics, and microbial community of methanol‐driven heterotrophic denitrification processes for treating nitrate‐rich water in recirculating mariculture system

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Large‐scale application of methanol‐driven heterotrophic denitrification (MHD) biofilms to recirculating mariculture systems (RMSs) is constrained by the requirement of precise methanol dosage. The emergence of intelligent aquaculture offers an opportunity to address this challenge, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of the ...

An experimental point of view on hydration/solvation in halophilic proteins

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Protein-solvent interactions govern the behaviour of proteins isolated from extreme halophiles. In this work, we compared the solvent envelopes of two orthologous tetrameric malate dehydrogenases from halophilic and non-halophilic bacteria.

Assessment of Preservation and Extraction Methods for Environmental DNA in Sediments

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
We assessed how different preservation methods (freezing, room temperature, silica gel, Longmire buffer) affect eDNA metabarcoding results for bacterial, fungal, microeukaryotic, and metazoan communities in marine and freshwater sediments. Results demonstrate taxonomic‐ and habitat‐specific responses to preservation methods, providing evidence‐based ...

Fermented Fish Products: A Comprehensive Overview of Traditional Processing Techniques, Varieties, and Their Health Benefits

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This review addresses the processing aspects and integrates in vitro and in vivo findings to highlight the various health benefits of indigenous fermented fish products from different regions of the world. Across Asia, Africa, and Northern Europe, fermented fish holds cultural significance, with each region boasting unique varieties shaped by ...

Halophilic Bacteria as a Source of Novel Hydrolytic Enzymes [PDF]

Life, 2013
Hydrolases constitute a class of enzymes widely distributed in nature from bacteria to higher eukaryotes. The halotolerance of many enzymes derived from halophilic bacteria can be exploited wherever enzymatic transformations are required to function under physical and chemical conditions, such as in the presence of organic solvents and extremes in ...

Eukaryovorous Predation in Evolutionarily Significant Excavate‐Like Flagellates

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that the Last Eukaryotic Common Ancestor (LECA) resembled contemporary excavates, a non‐monophyletic group of deep branching flagellates. Here we explore the functional ecology of distantly related deep‐branching “excavate‐like” flagellates (in Alveolata and Provora) that share with many excavates a vane‐bearing ...

Enzymatic and microbial routes to bioplastics: The green chemistry frontier of biopolymers

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 709-726, April 2026.
Microbial biosynthesis and engineered enzyme platforms are expanding the design space of polyhydroxyalkanoate bioplastics. By combining fermentation, PHA synthase engineering and cell‐free modular systems, tailored biodegradable polymers can be produced with tunable properties, supporting more sustainable materials and future circular bioeconomy ...
