Open DOI
Colorimetric polymerase spiral reaction (PSR) assay for the rapid detection of hepatitis B virus
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a significant global health concern, particularly in low-resource settings with limited access to sophisticated diagnostic tools. Conventional molecular diagnostic assays, such as qPCR, are often...

Genomic and phenotypic characterization of Vibrio proteolyticus and its postbiotic potential
Vibrio proteolyticus DCF12.2, isolated from the intestinal tract of the flatfish Dicologlossa cuneata , was characterized through integrated genomic and phenotypic analyses to assess its antimicrobial activity, biosynthetic potential and...

Interkingdom communication 2.0: pheromone-based control between Bacillus subtilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Microbial communities found in nature are complex and thrive in harmony, consisting of organisms derived from several kingdoms. Hence, they need to be able to communicate by quorum-sensing molecules to co-exist in close proximity. Being ...

MCP4250, a novel chemoreceptor, mediates chemotaxis toward halogenated nitrophenols in Cupriavidus sp. CNP-8
Bacterial chemotaxis toward synthetic halo- and nitro-substituted aromatic compounds has been observed; however, the molecular mechanisms by which bacteria sense these pollutants remain unclear. Cupriavidus sp. CNP-8 is capable of utiliz...

From capability to deployment: closing the translational gap in extremophile-mediated bioremediation
Extremophiles are a recurring answer to a recurring problem in environmental biotechnology: many waste streams most in need of treatment are too saline, hot, acidic, or alkaline for conventional microorganisms to treat effectively. Organ...

Novel and engineered strong constitutive promoters from Lactococcus cremoris for enhanced gene expression
Lactococcus cremoris is an emerging microbial chassis for food-grade and therapeutic protein production. However, existing promoter collections available for L. cremoris provide only a limited dynamic range, thereby constraining applicat...
