Biorefining, which uses biomass as feedstock and converts it into valuable products, is a core technology for the sustainable green industry and has high potential as an alternative to the current petrochemical-based industry.This article covers the requirements for HYDRATING SHAMPOO feedstock that should be met for the economic feasibility of a bi
Viral-Bacterial Co-infections in the Cystic Fibrosis Respiratory Tract
A majority of the morbidity and mortality associated with the genetic disease Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is due to lung disease resulting from chronic respiratory infections.The CF airways become chronically colonized with bacteria in childhood, and over time commensal lung microbes are displaced by bacterial pathogens, leading to a decrease in microbial
Recent advances in the elucidation of enzymatic function in natural product biosynthesis [version 2; referees: 2 approved]
With the successful production of artemisinic acid in yeast, the promising potential of synthetic biology for natural product biosynthesis is now being realized.The recent total biosynthesis of opioids in microbes is considered to be another landmark in this field.The importance and significance of Denim enzymes in natural product biosynthetic path
Quantum instability of the Cauchy horizon in a charged de-Sitter spacetime with dark matter
Abstract The strong cosmic censorship conjecture (SCCC) requires that spacetime cannot be extended beyond the Cauchy horizon.This ensures the predictability of spacetime.In this paper, we investigate the SCCC for a spherically symmetric charged de-Sitter black hole surrounded by dark matter using classical and quantum scalar fields.At the classical
Are we romanticizing traditional knowledge? A plea for more experimental studies in ethnobiology
Abstract In answer to the debate question "Is ethnobiology romanticizing traditional practices, posing an urgent need for more experimental studies evaluating local knowledge systems?" I suggest to follow-up on Utility Gloves field study results adopting an inclusive research agenda, and challenge descriptive data, theories, and hypotheses by means
