Plastid Engineering for Photosynthesis‐Driven Synthesis of Hyaluronic Acid in Tobacco

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a glycosaminoglycan composed of alternating units of N‐acetylglucosamine and glucuronic acid. High moisture retention, viscoelasticity and biocompatibility are unique features that make HA polymers attractive compounds for medical applications and aesthetic purposes.

Phenotypic responses to interspecies competition and commensalism in a naturally derived microbial co-culture [PDF]

, 2018
The fundamental question of whether different microbial species will co-exist or compete in a given environment depends on context, composition and environmental constraints.

Convergent Evolution and De Novo Reconstitution of Apiin Biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Apiin, an active flavonoid apioside, occurs in phylogenetically distant plants, such as parsley and chilli pepper (Capsicum annuum L.). Its sporadic distribution suggests the existence of convergent apiin biosynthesis; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying this convergence remain unclear.

The Prebiotic and Techno‐Functional Potential of Microbial Exopolysaccharides for Human Health and Food Systems

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) represent a diverse class of biopolymers holding considerable promise as functional food ingredients. This review analyzes the dual function of microbial EPS as a candidate for prebiotic agents and techno‐functional additives.

The impact of mixtures of xylose and glucose on the microbial diversity and fermentative metabolism of sequencing-batch or continuous enrichment cultures.

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2019
Efficient industrial fermentation of lignocellulosic waste containing a large part of glucose and xylose is desirable to implement a circular economy. Mixed culture biotechnologies can aid to realise this goal. The effect of feeding equivalent substrates

Untargeted Metabolomics Reveals Seasonal and Tissue‐Specific Metabolic Shifts in Holothuria cinerascens

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
Untargeted metabolic profiling of three body tissues from Holothuria cinerascens in South Africa using 1H‐NMR and UPLC–QTOF–MS revealed distinct tissue‐specific and seasonal metabolic variations, with the body wall and gut/mesentery exhibiting high metabolite diversity.

Cereal Arabinoxylans-Their Enzymatic Degradation and Relevance for Breadmaking and Human Health. [PDF]

Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf
ABSTRACT As the most abundant nonstarch polysaccharides in cereals, arabinoxylans (AXs) contribute significantly to the global intake of dietary fiber. They play a crucial role in the breadmaking process with respect to dough rheology and texture, bread volume, and nutritional quality, especially when starting from wheat or rye flour.

Chemical Profiling, In Silico and In Vitro Studies to Identify Potential CDK2 and mTOR Inhibitor From Selaginella inaequalifolia (Hook. & Grev.) Spring Ethanolic Extracts

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The current study is aimed to reveal the phytoprofile of Selaginella inaequalifolia (Hook. & Grev.) Spring using GC–MS and predict the drug properties, toxicity, biological properties of S. inaequalifolia ethanolic extracts (SiEE) using in silico methods and in vitro toxicity assays, namely, MTT and BSLB assay.
