Psychrophiles: Ecological significance and potential industrial application

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2018
The bulk of earth’s biosphere is cold (5 °C) that sustains a broad diversity of microbial life by triggering physiological response(s) to ensure survival in cold and frozen ecosystems.

Acidogenic fermentation of pretreated food waste under psychrophilic conditions for volatile fatty acids production

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Mixed‐culture fermentation generally produces volatile fatty acids (VFAs) as a mixture of C2–C6 acids. Among operational parameters, temperature has a distinct effect on the microorganisms' metabolic activity, which can shift the composition of the metabolites.

ThermoSlope: A Software for Determining Thermodynamic Parameters from Single Steady-State Experiments

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
The determination of the temperature dependence of enzyme catalysis has traditionally been a labourious undertaking. We have developed a new approach to the classical Arrhenius parameter estimation by fitting the change in velocity under a gradual change

Potential of Seaweed to Improve the Quality and Shelf Life of Fish and Fishery Products

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Growing global demand for safe fish preservation has increased interest in natural alternatives. Seaweed‐derived bioactive compounds possess antioxidant and antimicrobial properties that enhance fish quality, safety, and shelf life. These sustainable preservatives may reduce spoilage and synthetic preservative use, though further research ...

Innovative Field Applications of Probiotics, Prebiotics, and Medicinal Plant Products for Disease Control in Aquaculture

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disease outbreaks and the associated reliance on antibiotics pose major constraints to the sustainability of modern aquaculture. As regulatory pressures increase and consumer demand shifts toward residue‐free production, diverse biological interventions are gaining prominence as viable alternatives to chemotherapeutics.
