Bioprocess Development for Lantibiotic Ruminococcin-A Production in Escherichia coli and Kinetic Insights Into LanM Enzymes Catalysis [PDF]

, 2019
Ruminococcin-A (RumA) is a peptide antibiotic with post-translational modifications including thioether cross-links formed from non-canonical amino acids, called lanthionines, synthesized by a dedicated lanthionine-generating enzyme RumM.

From senescence and inflammaging to systemic comorbidities: Drivers of aging‐associated periodontitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Aging is accompanied by a chronic low‐grade inflammatory process, known as inflammaging, as well as immunosenescence, an age‐related decline and dysregulation of immune function, and cellular senescence, a process in which cells enter a state of irreversible growth arrest while actively releasing pro‐inflammatory factors.

Antibacterial Effect of High-Purity Nisin Alone and in Combination with D-Amino Acids or Chlorhexidine in an Endodontic-Like Biofilm Model

Antibiotics, 2021
New strategies to eradicate endodontic biofilms are needed. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of high-purity nisin alone and in combination with D-amino acids (D-AAs) or chlorhexidine (CHX) against an “endodontic-like” biofilm model. Biofilms were grown

Characterization, in vitro release, and antioxidant activity of glutenin hydrolysate encapsulated in liposome‐loaded uni‐axial and co‐axial electrospun fibers

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 8, Page 4962-4977, June 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Bioactive peptides derived from protein hydrolysates provide various health benefits; however, their practical application is limited by low gastrointestinal stability, enzymatic degradation, and poor intestinal absorption. Overcoming these challenges remains a key bottleneck for oral peptide delivery.

Microbial Safety of Legumes—A Review: Bacterial Contamination, Foodborne Outbreaks, and Traditional and Innovative Mitigation Strategies

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Demand for plant‐based foods, including legumes, is growing as a result of consumer preferences shifting toward food sustainability and plant‐based, protein‐rich foods. However, to ensure the food safety of such alternatives, assessing the prevalence of foodborne pathogens related to these products is critical, especially with their increasing
