Several 1-(4-(4'-chlorophenyl)-2-thiazolyl)-3-aryl-5-(2-butyl-4-chloro-1H-imidazol-5yl)-2-pyrazoline derivatives were prepared by the base catalyzed treatment of appropriate chalcones with 4-(4'-chlorophenyl)-2-hydrazino-thiazole in poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG-400) as an alternative reaction solvent. All the synthesized compounds were tested for their antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli (MTCC 2939), Salmonella typhi (MTCC 98), Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 96), Bacillus subtilis (MTCC 441), Aspergillus niger (MTCC 281), Trichoderma viridae (MTCC 167), Penicillium chrysogenum (MTCC 160), Fusarium moniliforme (MTCC 156) and Candida albicans (MTCC 183). Most of the compounds showed potent antibacterial and antifungal activity.

Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is an immunosuppressive/antibiotic drug, biologically produced by the fermentation of Penicillium brevicompactum as its secondary metabolite using submerged (SmF) and solid-state (SSF) fermentation processes. In this study, the SSF of (MTCC 1999) was done in optimised conditions to enhance MPA yield. Substrates including basmati and non-basmati rice, barley, oats, cornflakes, rice bran, and wheat bran were 80% moistened and sterilised.

Multifunctional PLA films were fabricated through the solution casting method by incorporating cardanol oil (CA) and amine-functionalized graphene (AFG). The effect of the CA, and AFG on the structural, mechanical, thermal, thermo-mechanical and antioxidant properties of PLA films were investigated. FTIR analysis of PLA-CA films showed distinct peak positions at 1590 cm corresponding to the aromatic CC bonds of CA, showing that CA is compatible with the PLA.

Hydrogels mimic natural environments due to their hydrated, polymeric networks which are beneficial for microorganism growth. The substantial water content maintains a consistently moist environment, and porous structure of hydrogel promotes efficient nutrient transfer and cell distribution, offering advantages over traditional liquid bioreactors. While their application in cell immobilization for bioconversion is well-known, their use as a solid-state fermentation matrix remains unexplored.

A Gram-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped and spore-forming bacterium strain designation, B190/17, was isolated from an air monitoring sample of a Brazilian immunobiological production facility in 2017. The strain was not identifiable by biochemical methodology VITEK 2 or by MALDI-TOF MS with VITEK MS RUO and MALDI Biotyper. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing results showed 98.

The oxygenases are essential in the bioremediation of xenobiotic pollutants. To overcome cultivability constraints, this study aims to identify new potential extradiol dioxygenases using the functional metagenomics approach. RW1-4CC, a novel catechol 2,3-dioxygenase, was isolated using functional metagenomics approach, expressed in a heterologous system, and characterized thoroughly using state-of-the-art techniques.
