Microbial-Inspired Surface Patterning for Selective Bacterial Actions for Enhanced Performance in Microbial Fuel Cells

open access: yes, 2022
The performance of any bio-electrochemical system is dependent on the efficiency of electrode–microbial interactions. Surface properties play a focal role in bacterial attachment and biofilm formation on the electrodes.

A novel planctomycetotal isolate from subsurface percolates belongs to the novel species Anatilimnocola aquadivae sp. nov. in the family Pirellulaceae

open access: yesScientific Reports
The family Pirellulaceae (phylum Planctomycetota) is known for its environmental versatility, with members isolated from marine habitats, algal surfaces, soil and lakes; yet, no member has been isolated from terrestrial subsurface habitats.

Nanoengineered Binetworks in Multifunctional Anionic Block Polymer Mesoblends for Improved Mechanical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesoblends consist of a nanostructured polymer into which a second polymer is imbibed with a selective solvent. In this work, a solvent‐templatable pentablock terpolymer possessing a sulfonated midblock is modified with a hydrophilic polymer that is photocrosslinked in situ, yielding a hierarchical binetwork.

The evolutionary ecology of model microbial communities

open access: yes, 2009
textThe biological world is complex. Communities contain a multitude of interacting species, while populations contain extensive genetic variation. How much complexity must one consider to understand patterns and processes of interest?

Organic Wastes as Feedstocks for Non-Conventional Yeast-Based Bioprocesses

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Non-conventional yeasts are efficient cell factories for the synthesis of value-added compounds such as recombinant proteins, intracellular metabolites, and/or metabolic by-products. Most bioprocess, however, are still designed to use pure, ideal sugars,

Bacterial‐Electrochemical Platform Utilizing a MXene‐Peptide Hydrogel

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A peptide‐based fibrillar hydrogel incorporating MXene facilitates efficient electron delivery to intracellular recombinant [FeFe]‐hydrogenase enzyme in E. coli, enabling sustained bioelectrochemical H2 production without engineered exoelectrogenicity pathways.

Impact of root exudates and plant defense signaling on bacterial communities in the rhizosphere

open access: yes, 2012
Despite significant advances in crop protection, plant diseases cause a 20% yield loss in food and cash crops worldwide. Therefore, interactions between plants and pathogens have been studied in great detail. In contrast, the interplay between plants and

Microbial interactions and biocontrol in the rhizosphere [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2001
The loss of organic material from the roots provides the energy for the development of active microbial populations in the rhizosphere around the root. Generally, saproptrophs or biotrophs such as mycorrhizal fungi grow in the rhizosphere in response to this carbon loss, but plant pathogens may also develop and infect a susceptible host, resulting in ...

Photothermal‐Activated Antibacterial Amyloid‐Polyphenol‐Iron Hydrogels for Synergistic Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We report a thermally triggered supramolecular hydrogel (LTFe) formed by Fe3+ and tannic acid on lysozyme amyloid fibrils. Fe3+ enables rapid gelation and photothermal transduction with an efficiency of 88.56%. The LTFe hydrogel exhibits excellent biocompatibility, potent antibacterial activity against E. coli and S.

New inducible promoter for gene expression and synthetic biology in Yarrowia lipolytica

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2017
Background The oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica is increasingly used as alternative cell factory for the production of recombinant proteins. At present, several promoters with different strengths have been developed based either on the constitutive ...
