Based on 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetate (3,4-DHPA) dioxygenase amino acid sequence and DNA sequence data for homologous genes, two different oligonucleotides were designed. These were assayed to detect 3,4-DHPA related aromatic compound-degrading bacteria in soil samples by using the FISH method. Also, amplification by PCR using a set of ERIC primers was assayed for the detection of Pseudomonas GCH1 strain, which used in the soil bioremediation process. A model was developed to understand and predict the behavior of bacteria and pollutants in a bioremediation system, taking into account fluid dynamics, molecular/cellular scale processes, and biofilm formation.

Although iron-doped hydroxyapatite (Fe-HAP) and its composites have been reported to immobilize arsenic (As), lead (Pb), and cadmium (Cd), its practical application is limited by the inefficient release of iron and phosphate. In this study, Ochrobactrum anthropic, a phosphate-solubilizing bacterium isolated from a lead-zinc smelting site, was employed to enhance multi-heavy metal immobilization in Fe-HAP-amended soils. O.

Phenotypic variability in isogenic bacterial populations is a remarkable feature that helps them cope with external stresses, yet it is incompletely understood. This variability can stem from gene expression noise and/or the unequal partitioning of low-copy-number freely diffusing proteins during cell division. Some high-copy-number components are transiently associated with almost immobile large assemblies (hyperstructures) and may be unequally distributed, contributing to bacterial phenotypic variability.

Background: Cow's milk represents an important protein source. Here, especially casein proteins are important components, which might be a promising source of alternative protein production by microbial expression systems. Nevertheless, caseins are difficult-to-produce proteins, making heterologous production challenging.

Egg-based yoghurt (EBY) is a novel yoghurt fermented by lactic acid bacteria with high nutritional and health values, serving as a potential alternative to milk-based yoghurt. However, the hardness, adhesiveness, and water-holding capacity of egg-based yoghurt need to be further improved. In this study, the improvement in EBY quality by gellan gum and its underlying mechanism were investigated.

Enzyme immobilization is indispensable for enhancing enzyme performance in various industrial applications. Typically, enzymes require specific spatial arrangements for optimal functionality, underscoring the importance of correct orientation. Despite well-known N- or C-terminus tailoring techniques, alternatives for achieving orientation control are limited.
