Article Synopsis
  • A new bacterial strain named GB24 was discovered in bioaerosols at an E-waste recycling site in China, showing it can grow in a range of temperatures (15-40 °C) and pH levels (5.5-9.5).
  • It has a unique set of cellular characteristics including specific fatty acids, lipids, and the presence of carotenoid pigments, and is closely related to another strain, DB1506, based on genetic analysis.
  • The genomic study of GB24 also shows its potential to produce specific secondary metabolites, leading to its classification as a novel species, proposed to be named sp. nov., with its type strain being GB24.

A Gram-positive, non-motile, non-spore-forming and short rod-shaped actinomycete strain, designated GA224, was isolated from electronic waste-associated bioaerosols. The optimal growth conditions for this isolate, a facultatively anaerobic bacterium, were 37 °C and pH 8.0.

A Gram-positive, endospore-forming, rod-shaped bacterium with a single flagellum, and a motile strain, designated CX253, was isolated from bioaerosols. The isolate is facultatively anaerobic, is able to grow at 25-45 ℃ (optimum 37 ℃) and pH 6.5-10.

A family of novel fluorophores with V- and X-shaped skeletons is rationally designed and prepared. Due to the extended cross π-conjugation in the X-shaped ones, their emission wavelengths in both solution and the solid state exhibit considerable bathochromic shifts compared with those of the V-shaped ones. It is found that a heavy intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect is the primary element for the mechanofluorochromic (MFC) response of this family, and an appropriate crystallinity of the sample is also indispensible for it to be MFC-active.
