This approach not only offers sustainable solutions for waste management but also enables the production of value-added products in an eco-friendly manner. However, to make this approach economically viable, optimizing the production process for high yield, productivity, and purity while minimizing costs is crucial. To address these challenges, various approaches have been proposed, including the use of neutralizing agents, high cell density cultures, co-cultures, fed-batch fermentation, and product removal strategies. Overall, this review underscores the potential of microbial fermentation for LA production as a sustainable and cost-effective solution to meet the growing demand for eco-friendly products. Further optimization of fermentation processes and the development of new microbial strains and fermentation techniques are key to advancing this approach. The production of LA through microbial fermentation presents a sustainable and eco-friendly solution to the increasing demand for eco-friendly products.

Miniature bulblets were successfully induced from both types of explants after 4 and 8 weeks of culture on full-strength semisolid MS basal medium fortified with 3% sucrose and varying levels of BAP (4.4-17.7 μM) and TDZ (4.5-18.1 μM).

In most cases, herbal products are not consumed immediately after production; as such, improper storage can result in physical, chemical, and microbiological changes. The study evaluated the effect of storage methods and time on the quality of oil extracted from <i>Phyllanthus amarus</i> Schumach and <i>Annona muricata</i> Linn and assessed their antidiabetic and antioxidative effects. Plants were air-dried, pulverized, and then subjected to Soxhlet extraction in petroleum ether. The oil was evaluated for phytochemical constituents and the effects of time and storage methods on its physicochemical properties. Characterization of the oil was done by spectroscopic techniques. Oils from both plants contained tannins, flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids, glycosides, terpenoids, phlobotannins, resins, reducing sugar, phenols, and saponins in different proportions. The oil from <i>A. muricata</i> had higher phenolic (3.11 ± 0.31 mg GAE/g), flavonoid (11.82 ± 0.08 mg QUE/g), alkaloid (16.37 ± 0.56 mg APE/g), and tannin (7.13 ± 0.47 mg CE/g) contents than the oil from <i>P. amarus</i>, which had 0.54 ± 0.08 mg GAE/g, 7.83 ± 0.13 mg QUE/g, 9.87 ± 0.15 mg APE, and 3.16 ± 0.12 mg CE/g for total phenolic, flavonoids, alkaloids, and tannins, respectively. Initial acid, iodine, peroxide, and saponification values recorded for <i>P. amarus</i> were 5.63 ± 0.82 mg KOH/g, 97.17 ±0.53 Wijis, 9.31 ± 0.15 mEq/kg, and 116.11 ± 0.74 mg KOH/g, respectively, significantly different from those of <i>A. muricata</i> , which had values of 1.17 ± 0.08 mg KOH, 76.23 ± 0.03 Wijis, 6.75 ± 0.47 mEq/kg, and 193.31 ± 0.52 mg KOH/g, respectively. FT-IR characterization of the oils revealed the presence of carboxylic acid, alkyl, alkene, alkane, haloalkane, aldehyde, aromatic amine, α-unsaturated and β-unsaturated esters, and phenol functional groups. <i>P. amarus</i> oil inhibited α-amylase (IC₅₀ 0.17 ± 0.03 mg/ml), α-glucosidase (IC₅₀ 0.64 ± 0.03 mg/ml), and xanthine oxidase (0.70 ± 0.01 mg/ml) to a greater extent than <i>A. muricata</i> oil, with IC₅₀ values of 0.43 ± 0.05 mg/ml (α-amylase), 2.25 ± 0.31 mg/ml (α-glucosidase), and 0.78 ± 0.07 mg/ml (xanthine oxidase). This study showed that oils from the tested plants have low rancidity with a moderate shelf life. The extracts contained essential phytoconstituents that significantly inhibited α-glucosidase and xanthine oxidase.

The simulation model development is relevant to formalize and generalize the experimental data and assess the conformity of experimental results with theoretical predictions. Experiments were carried out on a suspension of isolated rat myometrial mitochondria. The synthesized thiacalix[4]arene C-1193, containing four sulfur atoms, was employed. Demonstrations of time-dependent and concentration-dependent (0.01-10 μM) inhibition of Ca²⁺ accumulation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation by mitochondria in the presence of C-1193 were observed. While C-1193 inhibited the oxidation of NADH and FADH₂, it did not induce mitochondrial swelling. The thiacalix[4]arene also inhibited the synthesis of nitric oxide, with a Ki of 5.5 ± 1.7 nM, positioning it as a high-affinity blocker of endogenous NO generation in mitochondria. These results are the basis for the possible application of the synthesized thiacalix[4]arene as a tool in researching biochemical processes in mitochondria.
