This study focuses on extracting keratin from sheep wool waste via water-based hydrolysis, aiming for eco-friendly alternatives to chemical methods.

Optimization yielded an impressive 99% w/v hydrolysis yield, with a fixed solid-liquid ratio (15:100 w/v) yielding 18.72 g/l of total nitrogen extraction. Analysis revealed a dominant presence of phenylalanine, noted for its role in plant water conservation. Agricultural trials demonstrated the hydrolysate's efficacy in enhancing maize crop physiology, evidenced by increased leaf surface area and fresh and dry plant weights across varied application rates. These results underscore the value of this innovative valorization process in agriculture. By harnessing keratin from sheep wool waste through water-based hydrolysis, the study proposes a sustainable alternative to traditional chemical techniques.

Symbiotic relations between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and the rice plant can help in reducing abiotic stresses primarily caused by the heavy metals. Because of its structural components, mycorrhizal fungi can effectively reduce the heavy metal concentration in the rice roots thus, withholding the translocation of the heavy metals to the leaves and grains. This phenomenon is a direct effect of mycorrhizal adaptation to abiotic stress regardless of the host plant's metabolism. Host plants in abiotic stress can utilize this mechanism, thus a progressive approach of ultilizing the mycorrhizal symbiosis. In the present work this has been elaborated through in-silico study of the protein-metal interactions during heavy metal absorption in plant root, also the efficacy of mycorrhizal fungi in the process of heavy metal stress bioremediation. From the docking scores, as observed in the interactions between the fungal protein (metallothionein, carboxyl estarase2) and the heavy metal, it is evident that the higher binding affinity of the fungal protein to the heavy metals reduces the metal accumulation by the rice plant leaving the binding proteins available to bind with the necessary salts. The comparison of binding affinity between the metal with plant protein and the fugal protein revealed in this work that, the binding affinity of the heavy metal with the fungal metal accumulating proteins is many fold more than the metal accumulating rice root proteins. This method of utilizing mycorrhizal fungi in the rhizospheric soil of the rice plant is promising enough to serve as a new technique in the bioremediation of heavy metals.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8774,"journal":{"name":"Biocatalysis and agricultural biotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141541562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, the penetration of these toxic pesticide residues into the edible parts of plants has raised significant health concerns for humans and animals by developing respiratory problems, neurological disorders, and cancers. In response, nanotechnology has emerged as a promising alternative, enabling the development of highly reliable, minuscule nanoparticles (NPs) in size of 1–100 nm (nm) with diverse morphologies. These NPs offer an alternative approach to managing plant pathogens compared to traditional pesticides. Although various synthetic NPs have been produced using different elements, their persistence in plant tissues, soil, and water presents significant challenges. Conversely, the synthesis of biologically-derived green NPs, particularly those from bacteria, is considered a safer method for controlling plant pathogens. Bacteria-based green NPs are advantageous due to the rapid growth proliferation of bacteria and their resilience to extreme conditions. However, their synthesis and application remain limited, with scant research exploring against infectious plant pathogens. This study reviews recent literature on the synthesis of bacteria-based NPs, detailing their morphological, structural, chemical, optical, electronic, electrical, and magnetic properties, along with their thermal characteristics. By elucidating the mechanisms by which these NPs combat phytopathogens, this research provide crucial insight for future applications, enhancing our understanding of bacteria-based NPs research.
