Biodeterioration and chemical conservation of Bhimkichak Temple, Malhar, Chhattisgarh, India

Conservation Science in Cultural Heritage, 2012
Stone cultural heritage materials are at risk of bio-deterioration caused by diverse populations of microorganisms living in biofilms. The microbial metabolites of these biofilms are responsible for the deterioration of the underlying substratum and may ...

Enhanced deoxyviolacein bioproduction via enzyme condensation with a yeast glycolytic enzyme‐derived peptide tag

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Fusion of a 27‐amino‐acid peptide tag derived from a glycolytic enzyme enabled artificial assembly formation of the two violacein biosynthetic enzymes, VioE and VioC. This assembly resulted in enhanced biosynthesis of deoxyviolacein. Abstract In microbial production, regulating endogenous and exogenous synthetic pathways is essential.

From Waste to Plant‐Based Protein: Impact of Solid‐State Fermentation on Functionality and Protein Extraction of Cassava Leaves

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Cassava leaves represent a significant waste stream in cassava cultivation, currently underutilized in both food and nonfood applications. This study investigates the use of solid‐state fermentation with Aspergillus oryzae, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Bacillus subtilis to modify the composition and functional ...
