Novel Species Prevent the Growth of the Phytopathogenic Fungus .

In response to the escalating demand for sustainable agricultural methodologies, the utilization of microbial volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as antagonists against phytopathogens has emerged as a viable eco-friendly alternative. Microbial volatiles exhibit rapid diffusion rates, facilitating prompt chemical interactions. Moreover, microorganisms possess the capacity to emit volatiles constitutively, as well as in response to biological interactions and environmental stimuli.

Identification and functional analysis of novel protein-encoding sequences related to stress-resistance.

Currently, industrial bioproducts are less competitive than chemically produced goods due to the shortcomings of conventional microbial hosts. Thus, is essential developing robust bacteria for improved cell tolerance to process-specific parameters. In this context, metagenomic approaches from extreme environments can provide useful biological parts to improve bacterial robustness.

Synthetic Biology Toolkit for a New Species of Promissory for Electricity Generation in Microbial Fuel Cells.

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) offer sustainable solutions for various biotechnological applications and are a crucial area of research in biotechnology. MFCs can effectively treat various refuse, such as wastewater and biodiesel waste by decomposing organic matter and generating electricity. Certain species possess extracellular electron transfer (EET) pathways, enabling them to transfer electrons from organic compounds to the MFC's anode.

Enhancing 1,3-Propanediol Productivity in the Non-Model Chassis through Genetic Manipulation.

Biotechnological processes at biorefineries are considered one of the most attractive alternatives for valorizing biomasses by converting them into bioproducts, biofuels, and bioenergy. For example, biodiesel can be obtained from oils and grease but generates glycerol as a byproduct. Glycerol recycling has been studied in several bioprocesses, with one of them being its conversion to 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) by .

Electrobiochemical skills of Pseudomonas aeruginosa species that produce pyocyanin or pyoverdine for glycerol oxidation in a microbial fuel cell.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa can produce pigments, which mediate external electron transfer (EET). Depending on the mediator, this species can be explored in bioelectrosystems to harvest energy or to obtain chemicals from residual organic compounds. This study has compared the performance of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) inoculated with a Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate, namely EW603 or EW819, which produce pyocyanin and pyoverdine, respectively.
