Induction and Enhancement of Bacteriocin Production (Review)
ABSTRACT Conventionally, bacteriocins are produced by microorganisms on complex substrates, released as semi‐purified preparations or crude fermentates. These bacteriocin‐containing products often exhibit unsatisfactory purity, low active‐substance content, and high production costs, limiting their commercialization and use. This review aims to analyze

Balancing Act: Se─M bond serving as the fulcrum of the balance scale to compare the different weight of toxicity and therapeutic effects in biological environment. ABSTRACT The synthesis and characterization of organo‐selenium compounds have attracted considerable interest for decades, driven by the search for efficient catalysts and bioinspired ...

ABSTRACT We here describe mouse models with complementary homozygous Svil mutations. In skeletal muscle, Svil‐Mut mice express the Svil‐encoded N‐terminus fused to the βgal‐neo gene‐trap tag and lack the highly conserved archvillin C‐terminus; Svil‐KO mice lack expression of all known Svil‐encoded proteins; and Svil‐LoxP mice contain loxP sites for ...

GenBank mining reveals novel insights into Rhizobium phylogeny: Identical 16S rRNA sequences are mainly uncoupled from species designation, host plant, and geographic origin: How this search suggested the definition of a direct 'microbial h-index'. [PDF]

Antiretroviral pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is less effective in women than expected, partly because drug exposure within the female genital tract is variable and may be influenced by the vaginal microbiome. We developed an integrated pharmacometrics and machine learning framework to evaluate associations between vaginal microbiome composition and ...

This study demonstrates that the ultra‐low background radiation environment in deep underground laboratories significantly inhibits the proliferation of both normal nasopharyngeal epithelial cells (HNEPC) and nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells (HNE‐1) cells, with malignant cells exhibiting higher sensitivity.
