Effect of cytostatic drug presence on extracellular polymeric substances formation in municipal wastewater treated by membrane bioreactor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The effect of the cyclophosphamide and its mean metabolites on extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) formation was investigated. Two lab-scale membrane bioreactors were followed in parallel (one with the cytostatic drugs, the second without ...

2‐line Ferrihydrite Enhance Microbial Synthesis of Plant Biostimulants in Composted Biosolid by Regulating Phyla Pseudomonadota and Actinomycetota

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores how iron and manganese oxides transform sewage sludge into plant biostimulants during composting. Non‐targeted identification reveals the main species of plant biostimulants. Metagenomic analysis reveals that 2‐line ferrihydrite specifically enriches microbial genes for biosynthesis, boosting plant‐growth promoters.

Gut Microbiota‐Derived Anandamide Mediates the Therapeutic Effects of Urolithin A on Alcohol‐Induced Cognitive and Social Dysfunction via CB1R‐DRD2‐RAP1 Signaling Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that Urolithin A (UA) counteracts alcohol‐induced cognitive and social dysfunction (AICSD) via a gut microbiome‐dependent mechanism. UA‐enriched Bacteroids sartorii and Parabacteroids distasonis elevate anandamide (AEA), which activates the CB1R‐DRD2‐Rap1 signaling cascade to drive synaptic repair and reduce neuroinflammation ...

A Degradable Bioinspired Flier with Aerogel‐Based Colorimetric Sensors for Environmental Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Biodegradable fliers are developed inspired by Tipuana tipu samaras, integrating cellulose nanocrystal aerogel (CNCa) sensors loaded with natural dyes for pH and ammonia detection. The lightweight, degradable fliers mimic natural morphology and aerodynamics, offering an eco‐friendly, scalable solution for in situ environmental monitoring after passive ...

Tillage with Crop Residue Returning Management Increases Soil Microbial Biomass Turnover in the Double-Cropping Rice Fields of Southern China

open access: yesAgronomy
The variety of soil microbial biomass carbon (SMBC), soil microbial biomass nitrogen (SMBN) content, and the flux turnover rate of SMBC and SMBN for 0–10 cm and 10–20 cm layers in a paddy field in southern China with different tillage practices were ...

Methods for elucidating microbial biomass

open access: yesIRA-International Journal of Management & Social Sciences (ISSN 2455-2267), 2016
<p>The microbial biomass of soil is defined as the part of the organic matter in the soil that constitutes living organisms smaller than the 5-10 mm<sup>3. </sup>It is generally expressed in the milligrams of carbon per kilogram of soil or micrograms of carbons per gram of dry weight of soil. Typical biomass carbon ranges from 1 to 5%

Metabolic network percolation quantifies biosynthetic capabilities across the human oral microbiome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The biosynthetic capabilities of microbes underlie their growth and interactions, playing a prominent role in microbial community structure. For large, diverse microbial communities, prediction of these capabilities is limited by uncertainty about ...
