Characterization and Reuse of Lithium‐ion Battery Cathode Material Recovered Through a Bacterial Process

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A sustainable bacteria‐based lithium‐ion battery cathode recycling method is optimized using engineering biology. The resulting biomineralized manganese carbonate species is found to be easily converted into an electrode material, via simple calcination.

β-Galactosidase from strains isolated from breast milk and infant saliva: characterization and participation in absorption of different oligosaccharides

Journal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2019
Lactobacillus are Gram-positive anaerobic bacteria that naturally occur in the human intestinal tract. They are considered to be beneficial commensals for human health because they prevent the growth of pathogenic bacteria by lowering the intestinal pH ...

Resilience of small intestinal beneficial bacteria to the toxicity of soybean oil fatty acids

eLife, 2018
Over the past century, soybean oil (SBO) consumption in the United States increased dramatically. The main SBO fatty acid, linoleic acid (18:2), inhibits in vitro the growth of lactobacilli, beneficial members of the small intestinal microbiota.

Enantiomer-specific isotope analysis of D- and L-alanine: Nitrogen isotopic hetero- and homogeneity in microbial and chemical processes [PDF]

Earth, Life, and Isotopes (Kyoto University Press), pp. 387-402 (2010), 2013
Nitrogen isotopic hetero- and homogeneity of D-{\alpha}-alanine and L-{\alpha}-alanine were investigated in microbial processes in the domain Bacteria and in chemical processes in symmetric organic synthesis. D-alanine is an enantiomer that is physiologically essential for microbial growth and metabolic maintenance.

Dietary Qiwenghuangbo powder–enriched Limosilactobacillus reuteri protects the intestinal epithelium and alleviates inflammation via a strain‐specific mechanism

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Dietary Qiwenghuangbo powder improved growth performance and intestinal health of weaned piglets, as well as altered microbiota composition as significant enrichment of Limosilactobacillus reuteri. Furthermore, out of three isolated L. reuteri, two strains could alleviate pathogen infection and intestinal inflammation in the colitis models induced by ...

Engineering of Transmembrane Alkane Monooxygenases to Improve a Key Reaction Step in the Synthesis of Polymer Precursor Tulipalin A

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
The α‐methylene‐γ‐butyrolactone tulipalin A, a defense compound found in tulips, can polymerize via addition at the vinyl group or via ring‐opening polymerization, making it a highly promising monomer for bio‐based polymers. Since the biosynthesis of tulipalin A in plants remains elusive, we propose an alternative pathway for its synthesis starting ...

Lactobacillus homohiochii is a later heterotypic synonym of Lactobacillus fructivorans

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2019
The taxonomic relationship of Lactobacillus fructivorans and Lactobacillus homohiochii was re-evaluated. The type strains of these two species shared 100 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, 100 % pheS gene sequence similarity, 100 % rpoA gene sequence similarity, a 99.8 % ANI (average nucleotide identity) value and a 99.1 % in silico DNA-DNA ...

Stilbene‐based derivatives as potential inhibitors of trimethylamine (TMA)‐lyase affect gut microbiota in coronary heart disease

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 93-100, January 2023., 2023
Docking results showed Resveratroloside had the highest Vina score, indicating that it was the most active and might be employed as a lead molecule for further structural modification. The possible action process of TMA‐Lyase lead compound was described, which further affects the occurrence and development of CHD.
