Burkholderia cepacia lipase was immobilized on various types of phenyl-functionalized mesoporous silicates (MPS). MPS, anchored with a phenyl group on the silica wall and with three dimensional (3D) mesoporosity, showed highest lipase adsorption capacity and best activities both in aqueous and organic reagents.

Bioremediation, involving the strategic use of microorganisms, has proven to be a cost-effective alternative for restoring areas impacted by persistent contaminants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In this context, the aim of this study was to explore hydrocarbon-degrading microbial consortia by prospecting native species from soils contaminated with blends of diesel and biodiesel (20% biodiesel/80% diesel). After enrichment in a minimal medium containing diesel oil as the sole carbon source and based on 16S rRNA, Calmodulin and β-tubulin gene sequencing, seven fungi and 12 bacteria were identified.

Article Synopsis
- This study examines the prevalence of co-infections with Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) in patients with respiratory infections like COVID-19 and H7N9, highlighting a lack of previous research on this topic.
- A total of 49 Bcc isolates were analyzed from patients, revealing that those infected with COVID-19 had a higher rate of multidrug resistance and a shorter median lethal time compared to those with H7N9.
- The findings suggest that COVID-19-Bcc may have evolved from H7N9-Bcc, demonstrating increased virulence and antibiotic resistance in the context of respiratory infections.

16S ribosomal nucleic acid (16S rRNA) analysis allows to specifically target the metabolically active members of microbial communities. The stability of the ratios between target genes in the workflow, which is essential for the bioprocess-relevance of the data derived from this analysis, was investigated using synthetic mock communities constructed by mixing purified 16S rRNA from Bacillus subtilis (Bs), Staphylococcus aureus (Sa), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa), Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) and Burkholderia cepacia (Bc) in different proportions. The RT reaction yielded one copy of cDNA per rRNA molecule for Pa, Bc and Sa but only 2/3 of the expected cDNA from 16S rRNAs of Bs and Kp.
