This study aimed at valorizing digestate through spp. solid-state fermentation (SSF) to produce a potentially ameliorated fertilizer combined with fungal biomass as a value-added bioproduct. Plant-growth-promoting Ta13, RUT-C30, R, and T-22 were tested on different SSF substrates: whole digestate (WD), digestate dried up with wood sawdust (SSF1), and digestate enriched with food waste and dried up with wood sawdust (SSF2). The fungal biomass was quantified by using a qPCR assay. The growth of the four spp. was only observed on the SSF2 substrate. The highest quantity of mycelium was produced by RUT-30 (689.80 ± 80.53 mg/g substrate), followed by Ta13, and R (584.24 ± 13.36 and 444.79 ± 91.02 mg/g substrate). The germination of seeds was evaluated in order to assess the phytoxicity of the -enriched substrate. The treatments with 7.5% SSF2-R, 3.75% SSF2-T-22, and 1.8% SSF2-Ta13 equally enhanced the root elongation in comparison to the non-fermented SSF-2. This study demonstrated that digestate, mixed with agro-food waste, was able to support the cultivation of spp., paving the way to the valorization of fermented digestate as a proper biofertilizer.

Magnetotransport of conventional semiconductor based double layer systems with barrier suppressed interlayer tunneling has been a rewarding subject due to the emergence of an interlayer coherent state that behaves as an excitonic superfluid. Large angle twisted bilayer graphene offers unprecedented strong interlayer Coulomb interaction, since both layer thickness and layer spacing are of atomic scale and a barrier is no more needed as the twist induced momentum mismatch suppresses tunneling. The extra valley degree of freedom also adds richness.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of solid-state fermentation (SSF) on the protein profile and digestibility of red seaweed (Pyropia spp.). The results indicated that compound lactic acid bacteria (LAB) performed better than a single strain in terms of growth and metabolism on the red seaweed substrate.

The environmental impact of plastic waste is a growing global challenge, primarily due to non-biodegradable plastics from fossil resources that accumulate in ecosystems. Biodegradable polymers like polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) offer a sustainable alternative. PHAs are microbial biopolymers produced by microorganisms using renewable substrates, including agro-industrial byproducts, making them eco-friendly and cost-effective.

is a genus of filamentous fungi belonging to the Mucoromycota division. species produce a white, dense mycelium, which is used to create tempeh, a solid-state fermented Asian soybean product, that is gaining renewed attention as a proteinaceous plant food. The profile of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) of a fungus or group of fungi, particularly the secretome CAZymes profile, reflects adaptation to different lifestyles and habitats, and has a significant impact on fermentative capacity.

Ascomycetes, basidiomycetes and deuteromycetes can degrade wood, but less attention has been paid to basidiomycetes involved in Esca, a major Grapevine Trunk Disease. Using a wood sawdust microcosm system, we compared the wood degradation of three grapevine cultivars inoculated with Fomitiporia mediterranea M. Fisch, a basidiomycete responsible for white-rot development and involved in Esca disease.
