Purification of bioactive peptides from spent yeast autolysates
Oliveira, Ana Sofia; Pereira, Ana Margarida; Ferreira, Carlos M.H.; Pereira, Joana Odila; Amorim, Manuela; Faustino, Margarida; Durão, JoanaSpent brewer’s yeast have been described as an important source for bioactive peptides, with their properties well proven over the years. Besides the brewing sector, growing of large-scale processes on synthetic biology industry has generated a substantial amount of spent engineered yeast with further potential to be valued in a circular economy approach. In line with this perception, in this work, peptide-rich...
Promising bacterial genera for agricultural practices: An insight on plant grow...
Ferreira, Carlos M.H.; Soares, Helena M.V.M.; Soares, Eduardo V.In order to address the ever-increasing problem of the world's population food needs, the optimization of farming crops yield, the combat of iron deficiency in plants (chlorosis) and the elimination/reduction of crop pathogens are of key challenges to solve. Traditional ways of solving these problems are either unpractical on a large scale (e.g. use of manure) or are not environmental friendly (e.g. application...
