Survival and synergistic growth of mixed cultures of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli combined with prebiotic oligosaccharides in a gastrointestinal tract simulator [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Probiotics, especially in combination with non-digestible oligosaccharides, may balance the gut microflora while multistrain preparations may express an improved functionality over single strain cultures.

Laboratory Evolution of GH11 Endoxylanase Through DNA Shuffling: Effects of Distal Residue Substitution on Catalytic Activity and Active Site Architecture

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
Endoxylanase with high specific activity, thermostability, and broad pH adaptability is in huge demand. The mutant library of GH11 endoxylanase was constructed via DNA shuffling by using the catalytic domain of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens xylanase A (BaxA)

Xylooligosaccharides Enhance Lettuce Root Morphogenesis and Growth Dynamics [PDF]

Plants (Basel)
Enhancing root development is pivotal for boosting crop yield and augmenting stress resilience. In this study, we explored the regulatory effects of xylooligosaccharides (XOSs) on lettuce root growth, comparing their impact with that of indole-3-butyric acid potassium salt (IBAP).

Comparative autohydrolysis study of two mixtures of forest and marginal land resources for co-production of biofuels and value-added compounds [PDF]

, 2018
This work was focused on evaluating two mixtures of lignocellulosic feedstock, forest and marginal land resources, in order to co-produce solid biofuel, oligosaccharides, and glucose under a biorefinery concept.

Production of Xylanase by Recombinant Bacillus subtilis DB104 Cultivated in Agroindustrial Waste Medium

Hayati Journal of Biosciences, 2016
A recombinant Bacillus subtilis DB104 strain harbouring recombinant plasmid pSKE194 containing an Open Reading Frame (ORF) of endoxylanase and its indigenous promoter from the wild-type B. subtilis AQ1 strain was constructed. This recombinant B. subtilis

Biorefinery approach for the valorization of vine pruning residue [PDF]

, 2016
Lignocellulosic biomass (namely vine pruning residue, VPR) conversion into biofuels is considered a promising alternative to replace fossil fuels. In this work, VPR was submitted to hydrothermal treatment under isothermal conditions (180 and 200oC for 10-

Screening of Xylanolytic Aspergillus fumigatus for Prebiotic Xylooligosaccharide Production Using Bagasse

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2015
Sugarcane bagasse is an important lignocellulosic material studied for the production of xylooligosaccharides (XOS). Some XOS are considered soluble dietary fibre, with low caloric value and prebiotic effect, but they are expensive and not easily ...

Production of xylooligosaccharides from enzymatic hydrolysis of xylan by white-rot fungi Pleurotus = Produção de xilooligossacarídeos pela hidrólise enzimática de xylana por fungos Pleurotus

Acta Scientiarum: Technology, 2010
Hemicellulose consists of non-cellulosic polysaccharides, with xylans and mannans as their main examples. In nature, xylan can be first degraded to xylooligosaccharides and finally to xylose by certain microorganisms.

Heterologous expression and functional characterization of a GH10 endoxylanase from \u3ci\u3eAspergillus fumigatus\u3c/i\u3e var. \u3ci\u3eniveus\u3c/i\u3e with potential biotechnological application [PDF]

, 2019
Xylanases decrease the xylan content in pretreated biomass releasing it from hemicellulose, thus improving the accessibility of cellulose for cellulases. In this work, an endo-β-1,4-xylanase from Aspergillus fumigatus var.
