The influence of adipate concentration and dissolved oxygen on production of adipoyl-7-aminodeacetoxycephalosporanic acid (ad-7-ADCA) by a recombinant strain of Penicillium chrysogenum expressing the expandase gene from Streptomyces clavuligerus was studied in glucose-limited continuous cultures. Operating conditions were maintained constant but the adipate and dissolved oxygen concentrations (DOC) were varied separately in a range from 1 to 37.5gl(-1) and from 2% to 125% air saturation (%AS), respectively. The total beta-lactams specific productivity, r(ptotal), was not significantly changed for adipate concentrations from 5 to 25gl(-1), but the flux towards an unknown by-product decreased as the adipate concentration increased. Investigations at different DOC showed that r(ptotal) was stable around 18 micro molgDW(-1)h(-1) for DOC being in the range from 15 to 125%AS. When DOC was decreased from 15 to 7%AS, r(ptotal) increased to 25 micro molgDW(-1)h(-1), mainly due to a two-fold increase in the adipoyl-6-aminopenicillanic acid (ad-6-APA) specific productivity.

Photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) excel in wastewater treatment by removing pollutants and generating biomass but are challenging to optimize due to complex operational and environmental interactions. Neural Ordinary Differential Equations, Elastic Net, Stacking, and Categorical Boosting were applied as artificial intelligence methods to predict chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency, biomass productivity, biomass yield, and energy yield. Among these, the Stacking model demonstrated superior predictive performance across all targets.

As transitional ecosystems between land and sea, estuaries are characterized by a unique environment that supports complex and diverse microbial communities. A comprehensive analysis of microbial diversity and ecological processes at different trophic levels is crucial for understanding the ecological functions of estuarine ecosystems. In this study, we systematically analyzed the diversity patterns, community assembly, and environmental adaptability of bacterial and protist communities using high-throughput sequencing techniques.

Background: Hypoxia triggers stress, leading to significant alterations in gene expression patterns, which in turn affect fish's growth and development. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) is a pivotal technique for assessing changes in gene expression. However, its accuracy is highly contingent upon the stable expression of reference genes.

Microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and protists, are key drivers in aquatic ecosystems, maintaining ecological balance and normal material circulation, playing vital roles in ecosystem functions and biogeochemical processes. To evaluate the environmental impact of different river crab polyculture practices, we set up two different river crab () polyculture practices: one where river crabs were cultured with mandarin fish (), silver carp (), and freshwater fish stone moroko (), and another where river crabs were cultured just with mandarin fish and silver carp. These two polyculture practices were referred to as PC and MC, respectively.

Microbial eukaryotes are vital to global microbial diversity, but there is limited information about their composition and sources in contaminated surface waters. This study examined the pathogens and potential sources of microbial eukaryotic communities in polluted sink environments using the 18S rDNA amplicon sequencing combined with the fast expectation-maximization for microbial source tracking (FEAST) program. Six sampling sites were selected along the Pasig-Marikina-San Juan (PAMARISAN) River System, representing different locations within the waterway and classified as sinks (n = 12), whereas animal fecal samples collected from various farms were classified as sources (n = 29).
