In the present investigation, recovery of malic acid from the fermentation broth was performed by using in situ reactive extraction method employing different combination of amine and solvent systems. Totally six solvent mixtures were tested for toxicity on Aspergillus niger PJR1. Further, effect of solvent mixture concentration on separation of malic acid was investigated. Solvent system consisting of 2 M of trioctylamine in 1-octanol was found to be non-toxic to A. niger PJR1 and resulted in the maximum partition coefficient of 0.75 when the solvent mixture to liquid ratio of 1:2 used. A. niger PJR1 from crude glycerol using in situ reactive batch fermentation resulted in the maximum malic acid titer of 115.67 ± 3.5 g/L with the productivity of 0.53 g/L.h after 216 h. Further, fed batch extractive fermentation with crude glycerol resulted in malic acid titer of 131.48 ± 3.4 g/L with the productivity of 0.45 g/L.h after 288 h. Thus reactive extraction combined with in situ fermentation could become effective method for enhanced malic acid production.

Metabolites and metabolism-related gene expression profiles in skeletal muscle change dramatically under obesity, aging and metabolic disease. Since obese and lean pigs are ideal models for metabolic research. Here, we compared metabolome and transcriptome of Longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle between Taoyuan black (TB, obese) and Duroc (lean) pigs at different ages.

The alcoholic fermentation of wine is mostly achieved by the species Saccharomyces cerevisiae that display a large variability for their ability to consume or produce malic acid. To better characterize the metabolism of such group of strains we explored their non-volatile metabolome using an untargeted LC-HRMS approach. The chemical classes and the putative structures of several hundred compounds where annotated using MS2 spectra using the SIRIUS software.

Background: Acute pharyngitis (AP) is a common condition marked by inflammation of the oropharynx, which can lead to severe throat swelling, breathing difficulties, and even suffocation, significantly impacting quality of life. Despite the beneficial anti-inflammatory activity of Glycyrrhizae Radix Et Rhizoma (GRER) and Isoliquiritigenin (ISL), their pharmacological mechanisms against AP remain unclear.
Purpose: This study explores the mechanisms by which GRER treats AP, utilizing both transcriptomics and metabolomics approaches.
