Inhibition of Food Spoilage Fungi, and sp., by Nanoparticles Loaded with Essential Oil and Nerolidol.

This study investigates the antifungal potential of encapsulated essential oil (EO) from and nerolidol (NE) within Pluronic F-127 nanoparticles (NPs). The EO, containing nerolidol, β-caryophyllene, and α-pinene as major bioactive compounds, exhibited superior antifungal activity compared to NE. The NP-EO formulations demonstrated high efficacy against , with inhibition rates ranging from 29.

Electrospun nanofibers incorporating lactobionic acid as novel active packaging materials: biological activities and toxicological evaluation.

In this study, lactobionic acid (LBA) was incorporated into poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) by electrospinning. The antimicrobial effects of the nanofibers were tested using the agar diffusion method. Only the PVA formulations showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.

Electrospun Poly-ε-Caprolactone Nanofibers Incorporating Keratin Hydrolysates as Innovative Antioxidant Scaffolds.

This manuscript describes the development and characterization of electrospun nanofibers incorporating bioactive hydrolysates obtained from the microbial bioconversion of feathers, a highly available agro-industrial byproduct. The electrospun nanofibers were characterized using different instrumental methods, and their antioxidant properties and toxicological potential were evaluated. Keratin hydrolysates (KHs) produced by P45 were incorporated at 1, 2.

One-step purification and characterization of a haloprotease from Micrococcus sp. PC7 for the production of protein hydrolysates from Andean legumes.

The high content and quality of protein in Andean legumes make them valuable for producing protein hydrolysates using proteases from bacteria isolated from extreme environments. This study aimed to carry out a single-step purification of a haloprotease from Micrococcus sp. PC7 isolated from Peru salterns.
