From Fish Waste to Stable Omega‐3 Bioactive Lipids: Encapsulation Strategies and a Conceptual Framework for Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Functional Food Fortification

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Fish waste is valorized into omega‐3‐rich bioactive lipids (EPA and DHA), followed by stabilization through advanced encapsulation technologies to prevent oxidation and improve storage stability. Encapsulation protects polyunsaturated fatty acids from oxidation, improves storage stability, enables controlled gastrointestinal release, and enhances ...

Virtual Screening of Bacteriocins From Lactic Acid Bacteria Against Monkeypox DNA Polymerase: Sakacin P and Mundticin KS Emerge as Promising Candidates

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study employs an in silico virtual screening workflow to evaluate lactic acid bacteria (LAB)‐derived bacteriocins as potential inhibitors of the monkeypox virus DNA polymerase (MPDP). Protein‐peptide docking simulations using the HADDOCK platform revealed that Sakacin P and Mundticin KS possess the highest binding affinities for the MPDP target ...

Regenerative Microbiology: Harnessing Bacterial Antagonism and Spatiotemporal Signaling for Diabetic Wound Repair

Smart Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.
This review introduces “Regenerative Microbiology,” a framework that uses bacterial antagonism and phage therapy to address diabetic wound dysbiosis. By activating the p40/EGFR/PI3K axis and providing a vascular‐stratified precision roadmap, this approach shifts the paradigm from antimicrobial suppression to intelligent, microbe‐driven tissue ...

Structure and Activity of Class II Lanthipeptides From a Thermophilic Bacterium

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Heterologous coexpression of the lanthipeptide synthetase TlaM from the thermophilic bacterium Thermoactinomyces sp. DSM 45891, with the precursor peptides TlaA1 and TlaA2 in Escherichia coli, resulted in the introduction of four thioether rings in both peptides.

Natural approach of using nisin and its nanoform as food bio-preservatives against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus and E.coli O157:H7 in yoghurt

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Natural antimicrobial agents such as nisin were used to control the growth of foodborne pathogens in dairy products. The current study aimed to examine the inhibitory effect of pure nisin and nisin nanoparticles (nisin NPs) against methicillin

Plasma mutation breeding of Lactococcus lactis in producing Nisin

Journal of Hebei University of Science and Technology, 2015
With Nisin-producing Lactococcus lactis as the starting strain, the strain with tolerance to 10 000 IU/mL Nisin is selected on high-concentration Nisin medium. The Nisin titer of the strain is up to 1 680 IU/mL.

The Efficacy of Cognitive Credibility Assessment to Detect Omission Lies, Embedded Lies and Total Fabrications

Applied Cognitive Psychology, Volume 40, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT We tested the efficacy of cognitive credibility assessment (CCA) to discriminate between truth tellers and lie tellers in three types of lie scenarios: omission lies, embedded lies and total fabrications. We expected CCA to be most effective when lie tellers must make up most details: in the fabrication lie condition.

Single mutations in BraRS confer high resistance against nisin A in Staphylococcus aureus

MicrobiologyOpen, 2019
Nisin A is a lantibiotic produced by Lactococcus lactis that is widely used as a food preservative. In Staphylococcus aureus, the BraRS two‐component system (TCS) senses nisin A and regulates the expression of the ABC transporter VraDE, which is ...
