Resource inventory for fostering industrial symbiosis practices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we investigate the potential environmental benefits obtainable in Industrial Symbiotic Networks (ISNs) in case firms stock wastes when the demand is lower than supply.

Human Leukocyte Elastase Triggered Nanoparticles for Targeted Antimicrobial Delivery and Oral Microbial Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This study explores enzyme‐responsive nanoparticles for targeted antimicrobial release in inflamed oral environments. Nanoparticles formed by complexing peptides and chlorhexidine respond to human leukocyte elastase and release chlorhexidine selectively. P7 (ECAAPVCE)‐based formulations show optimal properties and stability, with antimicrobial activity

Economic and Environmental Impacts from Industrial Symbiosis Exchanges: Guayama, Puerto Rico [PDF]

open access: yes
Industrial symbiosis (IS) engages traditionally separate industries in a collective approach to competitive advantage involving the physical exchange of material, energy, water, and/or by-products.

Inhibition of CD45-specific phosphatase activity restores the differentiation potential of aged mesenchymal stromal cells: implications in regenerative medicine

open access: yesBiological Research
Background Aging affects the reparative potency of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) by diminishing their proliferation and differentiation capability; making them unsuitable for regenerative purposes.

Experimental Evidence for a Metal‐Related Function of a Cyanobactin

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Cyanobactins such as patellamides are produced by cyanobacteria profusely and have been studied extensively, but almost exclusively for their cytotoxic properties. Discussed is unprecedented experimental evidence for a metal‐related biological function – likely CO2 transport from the ascidian to the cyanobacterial symbiont.

Applications of biopolymer scaffolds for intestinal delivery of drug-loaded nano-biomaterials: a review

open access: yesDiscover Materials
Targeting drug delivery in the intestine is still one of the biggest hurdles in pharmaceutical research because of reasons like low bioavailability, enzymatic degradation, rapid transit time, and absorption plight of conventional oral drugs.

Mutualism, Parasitism, and Evolutionary Adaptation

open access: yes, 2000
Our investigations concern the role of symbiosis as an enabling mechanism in evolutionary adaptation. Previous work has illustrated how the formation of mutualist groups can guide genetic variation so as to enable the evolution of ultimately independent ...

Learning fair play in industrial symbiotic relationships [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we provide practical decision support to managers in firms involved in Industrial Symbiotic Relations (ISRs) in terms of strategy development and test the hypothesis that in the long-term, playing a fair strategy for ...

Technobiological Pathways for High‐CO₂ Capture Using Micro‐/Macroalgae: Genetic Engineering, Process Automation, and Value‐Added Bioproducts

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

The genetics of symbiotic nitrogen fixation: comparative genomics of 14 Rhizobia Strains by resolution of protein clusters. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The symbiotic relationship between legumes and nitrogen fixing bacteria is critical for agriculture, as it may have profound impacts on lowering costs for farmers, on land sustainability, on soil quality, and on mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions ...
