Green and sustainable synthesis of nanomaterials: Recent advancements and limitations.

Nanomaterials have been widely used in diverse fields of research such as engineering, biomedical science, energy, and environment. At present, chemical and physical methods are the main methods for large-scale synthesis of nanomaterials, but these methods have adverse effects on the environment, and health issues, consume more energy, and are expensive. The green synthesis of nanoparticles is a promising and environmentally friendly approach to producing materials with unique properties.

Genome analysis revealed a repertoire of oligosaccharide utilizing CAZymes in CCK931 and YRK005.

Unlabelled: bacteria are gram-positive, anaerobic, fermentative, and have probiotic potential. This study aimed to compare the genomes of YRK005 and CCK931 isolated from young radish and kimchi, respectively. The genomic size of YRK005 and CCK931 with GC content is 2.

Hydrotrope assisted green synthesis of dicoumarols and and antibacterial, antioxidant and xanthine oxidase inhibition studies.

Aqueous hydrotrope has been employed for the first time to synthesize heteroaryl dicoumarols by condensation of 4-hydroxycoumarin and different heterocyclic aldehydes. This method is highly efficient and green, and the same aqueous hydrotropic solution can be used up to five times without any considerable loss of yield in the product. The synthesized compounds showed good antibacterial potential against Gram-positive (/ and ) and Gram-negative (/ and ) bacterial strains using the Resazurin microtiter plate visual method.

Comparative genome analysis of four strains with a focus on carbohydrate-active enzymes and oligosaccharide utilization pathways.

is mostly found in food, plants, and dairy products. Due to their innate genomic features, such as the presence of carbohydrate-active enzymes, bacteriocins, and plasmids, spp. have great biotechnological potential.

Neoroseomonas marina sp. nov., Isolated from a Beach Sand.

A pink-pigmented bacterium (strain JC162 = KCTC 32190) was isolated from a beach sand sample. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, coccoid, non-motile, and strictly aerobic. EzBioCloud BLAST search of 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain KCTC 32190 had the highest sequence identity to the members of the genus Neoroseomonas and was closely related to N.

Dynamics of proteo-metabolome from Rubrivivax benzoatilyticus JA2 reveals a programmed switch-off of phototrophic growth, leading to a non-cultivable state as a hyperglycemic effect.

Anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria display phenomenal metabolic plasticity leading to distinct phenotypes. Extracellular elevated glucose levels limit photosynthesis in photosynthetic organisms; diversely, cause oxidative stress with ROS generation and "diabetic" like situation in non-photosynthetic organisms. In this study, longer incubations of externally provided glucose (22 mM) inhibited photosynthetic machinery in a phototrophic bacterium, Rubrivivax benzoatilyticus.

Phylotaxogenomics for the Reappraisal of the Genus With the Creation of Six New Genera.

The genus is a significant group of bacteria which is invariably of great clinical and ecological importance. Previous studies have shown that the genus is polyphyletic in nature. Our present study focused on generating a lucid understanding of the phylogenetic framework for the re-evaluation and reclassification of the genus Phylogenetic studies based on the 16S rRNA gene and 92 concatenated genes suggested that the genus is heterogeneous, forming seven major groups.

sp. nov., a phototrophic bacterium.

An oval- to rod-shaped, motile, Gram-stain-negative, oxidase-positive, catalase-negative, pink-coloured phototrophic bacterium (designated as strain JA968) was isolated from an estuary near Pata, Gujarat, India. Cells had an intracytoplasmic membrane architecture as lamellae and divided by budding. Strain JA968 had bacteriochlorophyll- and spirilloxanthin series carotenoids as photosynthetic pigments.

iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomics reveals insights into metabolic and molecular responses of glucose-grown cells of Rubrivivax benzoatilyticus JA2.

Anoxygenic photosynthetic bacteria thrive under diverse habitats utilising an extended range of inorganic/organic compounds under different growth modes. Although they display incredible metabolic flexibility, their responses and adaptations to changing carbon regimes is largely unexplored. In the present study, we employed iTRAQ-based global proteomic profiling and physiological studies to uncover the adaptive strategies of a phototrophic bacterium, Rubrivivax benzoatilyticus JA2 to glucose.
