The model, named TVD301, was refined using extracted RNA sequencing data, and flux balance analysis demonstrated its accuracy in predicting growth and sulfur species rates. Importantly, experimental validation in a regulated medium confirmed a 60% decrease in sulfate production compared to control cultures, showing the strong practical relevance of the model. The TVD301 model also revealed that T. versutus lacks the enzymes needed to convert sulfide to sulfate, making it a strong strain in biodesulfurization. To optimize sulfur recovery and reduce sulfate production in industrial processes using microbial consortia, the TVD301 model was adapted to a consortium model.

However, the effect of these materials, especially in combination, on short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) production has been scarcely reported. In this study, the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) from green cabbage waste was promoted by adding biochar (BC) and biochar-supported zero-valent iron (BC@ZVI). The underlying mechanisms, focusing on metabolic pathways and electron transport, were subsequently investigated through metagenomic analysis. The optimal SCFAs yields were achieved with BC (5 g·L⁻1) and BC@ZVI (15 g·L⁻1). While BC notably enhanced n-butyrate production (89.4-fold), BC@ZVI balancedly promoted acetate and n-butyrate. Metagenomics revealed that BC@ZVI's superiority stemmed from its enhanced ability to enrich functional microbes and facilitate electron transfer. Metagenomic analysis revealed that BC@ZVI enriched Sphaerochaeta and Herbinix, which could participate in the direct interspecies electron transfer process. The abundance of almost all functional enzymes involved in carbohydrate hydrolysis and the synthesis of acetate and n-butyrate were remarkably increased by BC@ZVI. BC and BC@ZVI lead to a notable enrichment of conductive pili genes, including pilB, pilC, and pilM. BC@ZVI enriched both conductive pili and c-type cytochromes, which could be considered a more effective selection than BC. Notably, BC@ZVI was more effective than BC in stimulating n-butyrate-type fermentation, significantly shortening the lag phase and the overall fermentation cycle, thereby exhibiting better comprehensive performance, enhancing pH buffering capacity, and strengthening electron transfer and substrate hydrolysis. The results proved the potential of BC@ZVI in SCFAs fermentation and deciphered the underlying mechanisms, which provided a new perspective to promote resource recovery of organic waste by anaerobic system.</p>","PeriodicalId":9024,"journal":{"name":"Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering","volume":" ","pages":"31-45"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145197977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many herbs possess bioactive compounds with documented antimicrobial properties, which could serve as potential lead substances in the quest for new treatments against P. aeruginosa. In the current study, the effect of the aqueous extract of 38 plant tissues, which have been introduced as an antimicrobial plant in the available publications, was investigated on P. aeruginosa. This study was done on a standard strain which is known as causative agent of bacteremia to find new avenues against P. aeruginosa bacteremia. Extracts from flower buds of S. aromaticum, flower of P. granatum L. var. pleniflora, and fruit of R. coriaria were found as effective against P. aeruginosa. Combination effect of these extracts was primarily evaluated by double well synergy test, and it was found that P. granatum and R. coriaria extracts may have additive or synergistic antimicrobial effect. More evaluations were performed via checkerboard assay. Fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI) was calculated as 0.84 which fall within the additive range (0.5 < FICI ≤ 1). These results suggest that the combination of P. granatum and R. coriaria extracts can provide a promising natural mixture with enhanced antimicrobial efficacy to treat P. aeruginosa bacteremia.

Despite the successful application of anammox technology in engineering, our understanding of anammox bacteria in terms of their physiological and biochemical characteristics remains the tip of the iceberg, and challenges mainly arise from their slow growth rates and the absence of pure cultures. The development of enrichment cultures, particularly through membrane bioreactors, is important in addressing these challenges. In this review, we highlight the key factors that are vital for optimizing planktonic cell growth and preventing cell aggregation, i.e., calcium and magnesium concentration, oxygen level, and solids retention time, and propose the involved regulation strategies which help improve our understanding of the ecology of anammox bacteria and their competitive advantages, particularly in nitrogen-limited environments. Then, insights into the unique cellular structures of anammox bacteria (including anammoxosome and their distinct lipid membranes) and the complex metabolic pathways involving unique nitrogen intermediates were discussed, partially based on anammox planktonic cells. Finally, recent advances pertaining to non-traditional growth conditions and novel applications, such as ladderane lipid biosynthesis, extracellular polymeric substance production, and electro-anammox processes are discussed, underscoring their potential in innovative bioresource utilization beyond wastewater treatment. This review provides an in-depth understanding of planktonic cultivation techniques, growth dynamics, and biochemical characteristics of anammox bacteria, and highlights promising avenues for future research and application of valuable anammox bacteria resources, propelling their application in both ecological and engineered systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":9024,"journal":{"name":"Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering","volume":" ","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144688857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
