Objective: Its eps gene cluster, the antioxidant activity and monosaccharide composition of exopolysaccharides, the expression levels of related genes at different fermentations were analyzed for clarifying the exopolysaccharide biosynthesis mechanism of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus LDB-C1.
Results: The comparison analysis of eps gene clusters indicated that the gene clusters present diversity and strain specificity. The crude exopolysaccharides from LDB-C1 exhibited a good antioxidant activity. Compared with glucose, fructose, galactose, and fructooligosaccharide, inulin significantly improved the exopolysaccharide biosynthesis. The structures of EPSs were significantly different under different carbohydrate fermentation conditions. Inulin obviously increased the expressions of most EPS biosynthesis related genes at fermentation 4 h.
Conclusion: Inulin accelerated the beginning of the exopolysaccharide production in LDB-C1, and the enzymes promoted by inulin was beneficial for the accumulation of exopolysaccharide at the whole fermentation process.

The lack of cost-effective nutrient sources and harvesting methods is currently a major obstacle to the production of sustainable biofuels from microalgae. In this study, Chlorella pyrenoidosa was cultured with saline wastewater in a stirred photobioreactor, and lipid-rich flocculent microalgae particles were successfully constructed. As the influent salinity of the photobioreactor increased from 0% to 3%, the particle size and sedimentation rate of flocculent microalgae particles gradually increased, and the lipid accumulation of microalgae also increased gradually.

Microbial impacts on early carbonate diagenesis, particularly the formation of Mg-carbonates at low temperatures, have long eluded scientists. Our breakthrough laboratory experiments with two species of halophilic aerobic bacteria and marine carbonate grains reveal that these bacteria created a distinctive protodolomite (disordered dolomite) rim around the grains. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) confirmed the protodolomite formation, while solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) revealed bacterial interactions with carboxylated organic matter, such as extracellular polymeric substances (EPS).

During the self-healing process of Bacillus subtilis biofilms on a solid MSgg substrate, large-scale ordered clusters emerge within the biofilm, providing an invasive advantages. To investigate the self-healing mechanism, an agent-based model is employed to simulate the self-healing processes of biofilms at two ages. The study reveals that a uniform cell distribution facilitates the healing of biofilm incisions.

Background: Endometriosis patients exhibit a cancer-like glycolytic phenotype. The pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2)/hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) axis plays important roles in glycolysis-related diseases, but its role in patients with endometrial polyps (EPs) combined with endometriosis has not been validated.
Methods: EP samples were collected from patients with and without endometriosis.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease marked by gut inflammation and microbial dysbiosis. Exopolysaccharides (EPS) from probiotic bacteria have been shown to regulate microbial composition and metabolism, but their role in promoting probiotic growth and alleviating inflammation in UC remains unclear. Here, we investigate BLEPS-1, a novel EPS derived from Bifidobacterium longum subsp.
