Systematic screening identified the anaerobic fungus isolated here, Neocallimastix sp. FC1, togetherwith Megasphaerahexanoica, as a top-performing consortium, achieving a lignocellulose-to-MCFA yield of 21.0% (carbon-to-carbon basis) through tight lactate cross-feeding without competition for soluble sugars. Fungal lactate production limited the growth of M. hexanoica in co-culture, and the bacterium reallocated protein from growth toward chain elongation, resulting in increased MCFA production. These findings identify fungal lactate production as the primary biological constraint, and balancing lactate production and consumption as a key engineering strategy for improving lignocellulose-to-MCFA conversion.

Morphological, chemical, and mechanical analyses confirmed the system's structural integrity, water-absorption capacity, and hydrogel-like behavior, making it suitable for underwater applications. In vivo tests on Stylophora pistillata under a four-phase bleaching setup showed that, even without direct contact, the film may contribute to mitigating oxidative stress in corals, as evidenced by higher chlorophyll content, greater Symbiodiniaceae density, and reduced lipid peroxidation compared with untreated stressed corals.
