Fluopsin C: A Review of the Antimicrobial Activity against Phytopathogens
Agronomy, 2022 Fluopsin C (FlpC) is an organocupric secondary metabolite with low-molecular-weight, produced by some Pseudomonas and Streptomyces bacteria. The compound was identified in 1970 as prismatic dark-green crystals, with strong antimicrobial activity against ...

Environmental drivers of viral community composition in Antarctic soils identified by viromics
Microbiome, 2017 Background The Antarctic continent is considered the coldest and driest place on earth with simple ecosystems, devoid of higher plants. Soils in the ice-free regions of Antarctica are known to harbor a wide range of microorganisms from primary producers ...

Electricity-assisted production of caproic acid from grass
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017 Background Medium chain carboxylic acids, such as caproic acid, are conventionally produced from food materials. Caproic acid can be produced through fermentation by the reverse β-oxidation of lactic acid, generated from low value lignocellulosic biomass.

Structure, function and diversity of the healthy human microbiome [PDF]
, 2012 Studies of the human microbiome have revealed that even healthy individuals differ remarkably in the microbes that occupy habitats such as the gut, skin and vagina. Much of this diversity remains unexplained, although diet, environment, host genetics and
