Stimulating volatile fatty acid production in anaerobic digestion: Bacterial co...

The production of volatile fatty acids (VFA) through anaerobic digestion has gained significant attention due to its potential benefits for renewable energy, biofuel production, waste valorization, bioproduct synthesis, and wastewater treatment. Nano-zero valent iron (nZVI) and magnetite nanoparticles (FeO-NPs) have been identified as effective nanomaterials for enhancing methane production, although their appl...

Ochratoxigenic mycobiota in chilli Capsicum annuum L. and Chilean Merkén

Mycobiota in chilli Capsicum annuum and Chilean merkén

Berry fruits of Capsicum annuumcv. "Cacho de Cabra” are used for the manufacture of a traditional pepper powder known as Merkén, which is a Chilean spicy powder with smoky flavour produced through both industrial and artesian processes. Merkén contamination with Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a main concerning for industries and local producers. Therefore, the main goal of this study was to search for the cultivable myc...

Polyphasic evaluation of long term preservation on Aspergillus (section Nigri) ...

The implementation of consistent fungal preservation techniques and appropriate quality assurance are key issues for an effective and efficient preservation. The cost and convenience of each method are important aspects to be taken into consideration such as the knowledge of all parameters capable of affecting the procedures [1]. Preservation methods currently used are highly empirical and in many instances, do...

Mycobiota in Chilean traditional chilli used for Merkén production

INVENTIVE CITIES IN BRAZIL: HIERARCHY AND DETERMINANTS OF INVENTION

The paper aims to analyze the relation between urban scale and inventive activities, measured by patents per capita, in two different periods (2001-2004 and 2006-2009) in Brazil. Based on data from the National Industrial Property Institute (Inpi), the Annual Social Information Report (Rais), The Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) and the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education ...

Aged freeze-dried ampoules of preserved biotechnological important fungi

The implementation of consistent fungal preservation techniques and appropriate quality assurance are key issues for an effective and efficient preservation. The cost and convenience of each method are important aspects to be taken into consideration such as the knowledge of all parameters capable of affecting the procedures [1]. Preservation methods currently used are highly empirical and in many instances, do...

Preserved freeze-dried and aged filamentous fungi of biotechnological importance

The bioindustrial production strongly depends on the reliable microbial preservation in microBiological Resource Centres. The implementation of consistent microbial preservation techniques and appropriate quality assurance are key issues for an effective and efficient preservation and consequently industrial production. Though, the cost and convenience of each method are important aspects to be taken into consi...

Will fungal strains preserved in culture collections maintain the same biotechn...

The methods of fungal preservation currently used are highly empirical and, in many instances, there is not clear information if it provides reliable genetic and phenotypic stability. Freeze-drying is commonly used to preserve fungal strains. However, genetic and phenotypic alterations after long term-storage are yet unknown. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the freezedrying preservation method for...
